SMRTR summary
Meta has reportedly scrapped plans for a new Quest VR headset to focus on developing a lightweight open headset, potentially fast-tracking its AR glasses progress. This shift follows rumors of Apple's push to launch its own glasses product first. Meta's new device, codenamed Puffin, is expected to be extremely light, resembling bulky glasses, with a planned 2026 launch. This move may pressure Apple to accelerate its own glasses development as both companies compete for dominance in wearable AR technology.
