Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth said last May that he would “love” for Quest to have some sort of Discord integration, although it seemed it was up to Discord to make the first move. At Connect this week, Meta announced Discord is officially coming to Quest next year. While Quest users can technically log into Discord

During Meta Connect this week, the company released an exclusive 3D trailer of James Cameron’s upcoming film Avatar: Fire and Ash. There’s no confirmation yet that we’re getting the full thing, although Cameron is enthusiastic about Quest’s ability to open up new distribution models.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s keynote at this year’s Connect wasn’t exactly smooth—especially if you count two big hiccups that sidetracked live demos for both the latest Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses and the new Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses.

But Meta has made several clever design choices that will pay dividends once their true AR glasses are ready for the masses. The Ray-Ban Display glasses are a new category for

At the Connect developer conference today, Meta officially unveiled its next generation of smart glasses built with Essilor Luxottica, essentially confirming yesterday’s big leak, which includes the long-rumored pair with a single heads-up display. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg showed off three new base models during the Connect keynote, which includes a curious switcheroo on the
