Meta has announced the Quest 4 Pro, its most advanced mixed reality headset to date, featuring dual 4K micro-OLED displays, advanced eye tracking with dynamic foveated rendering, and full-color passthrough at a $999 price point. The headset targets both consumers and enterprise users.
The Quest 4 Pro is powered by a custom Qualcomm XR3 Gen 2 chip offering 3x the GPU performance of the Quest 3. The headset includes 16GB of RAM and a 120Hz refresh rate at full resolution. The new Pancake optics reduce the headset thickness by 40%.
Information
Quest 4 Pro's micro-OLED displays deliver 2,000 nits peak brightness with a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio — OLED black levels for VR.
Meta has also introduced Electromyography (EMG) wristband controllers that detect finger movements through electrical signals, eliminating the need for hand-held controllers in many applications. The wristbands are included with every Quest 4 Pro purchase.
“Quest 4 Pro is the device that finally makes mixed reality mainstream. The combination of micro-OLED, eye tracking, and EMG control is revolutionary.”
— Mark Zuckerberg, Meta CEO
The headset supports PC VR streaming over Wi-Fi 7 with less than 5ms latency, and includes a depth sensor for accurate room scanning. Pre-orders begin August 1 with shipping starting August 15, 2026.
