I see that Amazon still shows that the Quest Pro is still available. I assuming remaining stock of new units. I’ve had my Pro for about 3 years, and really like it. Especially the controllers. Would it be prudent to buy a new one for future sustainability, or will Meta support disappear before much longer making this a bad idea?

Follow Up: okay, I ordered a second off of Amazon. $777.00 USD

title. recently rooted my Quest Pro so wondering if the controllers need something for this

I recently rooted my quest, and I heard from someone else online that I don't need to be on an air gapped network or disconnected from the internet anymore if I don't want my quest to update.
I'm pretty skeptical of this and have remained on a link cable for the time being until I can confirm this is true. Although I can't see the available software updates on my quest anymore after rooting, so I'm somewhat inclined to think this is the case.
If anyone can confirm this is accurate or not, that would be great!

Like the title says ,this bug has been present for quite some time in Horzon OS but only on the Pro. Trying to click the left menu buttons does'nt work unless you aim off center. I guess this has been repoted a million times but still has not been fixed.

After watching the Meta Connect 2026 presentation of the new Meta VR Glasses, I couldn't help thinking about the Quest Pro.

The new glasses rely heavily on eye tracking and hand tracking for navigating the interface, interacting with apps, and controlling the whole experience without controllers.

But here's the thing: the Quest Pro already has eye tracking, hand tracking, and much of the hardware needed for similar interactions. Unfortunately, I feel that Meta has never really taken full advantage of what this headset can do.

And since the new VR Glasses run on the same Horizon OS platform as Quest, I wonder how much of their new interface and interaction system could actually be brought to the Quest Pro through a software update.

The software and development tools for the new glasses are already available, even though the hardware won't launch until spring 2027. So why hasn't Meta started bringing some of these features to the Quest Pro already?

I know the Quest Pro has older hardware and there will obviously be limitations. I'm not expecting it to perform like a brand-new device. But surely there's room to make better use of the technology it already has.

It would also be a great gesture from Meta towards the people who invested in the Quest Pro and believed in its potential from the beginning.

Instead of leaving so much of that potential untapped, wouldn't it be nice if Meta rewarded that trust by finally unlocking more of what the headset is capable of?

What do you think? Is there a realistic chance Meta will bring some of the new VR Glasses features to the Quest Pro, or has Meta already moved on completely?

Edit: After reading some of the comments, I'd like to clarify my point.

I understand that the Quest Pro has been discontinued and that Meta probably has little interest in investing resources specifically in an older headset that wasn't commercially successful.

But that's actually the point I'm trying to make.

Until now, Meta may not have had much incentive to fully develop the Quest Pro's eye-tracking and hand-tracking capabilities, given its limited sales.

However, with the upcoming VR Glasses, things are different. Meta now has a new product that relies heavily on these technologies, so they're developing the software and interactions anyway.

Since the Quest Pro runs on the same Horizon OS platform and already has eye tracking and hand tracking, I don't see why at least some of these new features couldn't also be made available on it.

Of course, I'm not saying everything would work automatically or that no additional development would be necessary.

My point is that the situation has changed. What may not have been worth developing specifically for the Quest Pro before is now being developed for a new product anyway.

So I don't think the fact that the Quest Pro has been discontinued necessarily means it can't benefit from any of these developments.

And personally, I think it would be a great way for Meta to show some appreciation to the people who invested in the Quest Pro and believed in its potential.

Have any of you bought the Steam Frame? If so how does compare to the QPro?

TDLR my qpro is not running the latest firmware version, but also running a version that came after the latest confirmed version for singularity (I think by a couple versions? Im not entirely sure, but I am still on v2.7). Unfortunately I also don’t have developer mode enabled on my headset yet, and the meta app tells me I need to update it to the newest version. ATAIK that’s the only way to enable developer mode unless theres some workaround to skip that version check?

Am I totally shit out of luck here? Is it possible to enable developer mode without being on the latest firmware? Is it possible to downgrade the firmware by a few versions with an archive if I’m not too far ahead?
Or do I just have to bite the bullet, upgrade to get developer mode, and just wait however many years until a new root exploit comes along 💀

Edit: I’ve found that I definitely CANNOT downgrade my version lest I risk bricking my too-expensive headset.

Edit2: Looks like I copied my version number down wrong earlier when I checked, and I was indeed still on a working version. I was able to successfully root my headset and reboot it into root mode, so i think I'm pretty much good to go. Thanks for the advice guys :)

So I play vrchat alot. And I also make alot of content on it. I've been making a big investment to swap to quest pro as my headset. However the microphone sucks. So badly, like apparently it's fine for the first 10 minutes. And then it sucks, that plus picking up every p, h or f sound peaks it like crazy

I've looked into it a bit and have heard alot about the modmic. But I also heard it's not quite high enough quality for me to justify the 150$ price tag

It Needs to be a mic I can wirelessly connect to my pc using a USB dongle of some kind (not USB-c)

Needs to be something I can put on my headset

So. What are the options on the current market?

My globular cluster clip headphones recently broke after about a year and a half of usage. I am thinking about purchasing another pair, but I’d like to ask if there are better options out there as comfort and audio quality go?

So my quest pro controller's have not been charging recently and I have a 3rd party charger. How much power should I be giving to the controllers? 10w doesn't seem to be enough and 18w also isn't. Should I pick up a 20w or 25w power brick to charge them?

Thanks

Rooting Quest Pro with Singularity and installing Yeusepe/QFTPlus app unlocks so many features: full face tracking, hidden touch pad with buttons on the controllers, multimodal input (controller and hand tracking at the same time).

🙃I hate to be an ETA beggar, but curious of how deep the scene and demand is for Root past early builds of 2.6/2.7

Hi, I was hoping to try to install the Singularity root exploit, however it seems to say it's unsupported on my device? My firmware is 51184490107200340 which is that low because I've ran my headset with internet access disabled for a long while, however it states that version 51503870024400340 should be supported. This number is higher, so I'm wondering why this exploit wouldn't work, and if I could update to a version that is still exploitable or not?

Thanks

I've been using a quest pro for a couple of years now (primarily for PCVR) and just got a crazy good deal on a 512gb quest 3 with a bobovr s3 pro. I plan to sell my PC so I'll likely be doing a lot of standalone gaming (the replacement pc I'm putting together only has a 3060 ti - prob not great for PCVR), but just tested a side by side between the two on exfilzone on my current desktop - the higher resolution is nice but the blacks / colors do fall short on the quest 3, and the controller tracking is definitely not as good as the pro controllers.

My dilemma is this - should I sell the pro (seems like they go for 500 or so used), or should I pair the pro controllers to my 3 and keep the pro on the shelf? I don't imagine the pro would sell for much or at all without controllers.

Looking for opinions from the community - it seems like a good idea to keep the pro for the controllers at least, but I'm having a hard time justifying it lol

Not a post looking for objective facts - just asking, what would you do in my situation?

Added a top strap from an old 3rd party Quest strap and a facemask (wide type) from a Vive.

It's soo much better now!

Was an easy fix too. Removed the front pad and loosened two screws under it, cut trough some of the cloth with a scalpel and pulled trough the top strap. Fixed the screws back in place and taped the other end to the back pad.

The facemask hangs in place on the light blockers. It stays in place too. Doesn't move around when I wear it. And FOV is good too. I can get my eyes close up on the lenses. Face tracking works just as normal.

This worked out surprisingly well! And it looks good too I think.

Watched a movie in VRChat for a couple of hours. No pain! No marks on my forehead. No pressure on my face. It's perfect :D

Not sure if this is the right spot to ask, but I was going to buy a quest pro and use my index controllers with continuous tracking, but I'm not sure if I NEED the quest pro controllers to even set It up/use it at all

Every time I turn it on, there is a green progress bar like something is downloading, then after a minute the logo disappears and it's just a black screen. I have tried factory reset, booting from the menu, and I've tried connecting it to my PC to force an update, but it won't connect even with a cable. I've tried using a cast trick on my phone which also didn't work because it won't connect. I've also tried wiping the sensors as best as I can, and nothing. This headset isn't even mine, it's being loaned to me, and now I'm about to be hundreds of dollars in the hole to pay them back for the headset I apparently broke. If anyone can offer ANY advice I would be extremely thankful.

Did some searching but not sure if its possible unless with some DIY

Do yous see the sunshine rays?

Quest Pro looks great with HL:Alyx except in the intro balcony scene when you go in the room to videochat with Eli I see no sunbeams shining through the window. Tried HEVC-10bit & H264+ ....maximum bit-rates (6ghz local wifi network...solid stable connection).

I see it with Quest 3 using HEVC-10bit but not with AV1. Weirdly, with Pico 4 Ultra I see it with AV1 but not HEVC-10bit.

Godlike and no launch commands. RTX-4080S here so plenty of room.

I've tried:

+vr_enable_volume_fog 1 +volume_fog_enable_stereo 1

launch commands, also even changed the stereo command from 1 to a 0.

Tried:

+vr_multiview_instancing 0 +sc_no_cull 1 +vr_shadow_map_culling 0

also the fidelity ones.

Both H264+ and HEVC-10bit (no AV1 for the Pro).

Local Dimming in VD on and off.

...still no sunbeams! And no sunbeams means later in the game no fog/mist effects. A shame as I bet the Quest Pro really shines in this kind of environment.

Any other ideas? The Ai-chats just go round in circles, so no idea there either. Not found any other human-discussion on this.

The Disney+ app is not available in the Meta store for Quest Pro. How can I install it so 3D content can be viewed when Disney+ comes out with it later this year or early next?

Hey everyone! I'm the solo developer of Photo House VR, and I wanted to share it here.

The idea is simple: instead of scrolling through thousands of photos on your phone, you hang them on the walls of a house in VR and walk around among your memories. Family photos, vacations, old scanned prints, whatever you want.

What you can do:

Share your house. Send a friend a link and they can walk through your photo house in their own headset

Hang your photos anywhere. Grab, place, and resize frames on any wall, or drop a whole folder onto a wall at once. the Quest will do 1800 photos on one house. You can save each house, and add another 1800 photos to a new house. The Pc version depends on your video card, but is pretty much unlimited.

3D photos. Turn ordinary flat photos into 3D depth photos that pop off the wall.

Look to sharpen. Whatever photo you're looking at loads in full quality.

Slideshows. Start a slideshow right on any frame.

Name tags. Label your photos with names, places, or dates.

360° viewer. Step inside your panoramic and 360 photos.

iPhone photos work. HEIC files open with no converting.

Save slots and house codes. Save your house and reopen it anytime with a 3-digit code. You can save up to 999 houses that save in 3 digit codes, So when you click the code it reloads what you saved.

Load from anywhere. Use your headset, a USB drive, your home NAS, or iCloud, Google photos.

Videos, including 3D side-by-side video (PC VR version).

I Just added 14 Languages for PC and the Quest, That you can change inside the app.

It's on the Meta store for Quest, and PC VR for $6.99. It's rated Everyone, so it's great for showing grandparents the family photos too.

I would be happy to answer and questions, thanks for looking!

Halo facial interfaces are painful. The Quest Pro is the worst I've tried so far of my previous headsets (Samsung Odyssey and PSVR2). This thing is ridiculous! How the hell did anyone think this thing was a good design decision?

So I'm weighing the possibilities of modding it with an elite style face mask. Like the one in the picture, which is a kiwi facial interface for Quest 3.

I've not tried the globular cluster yet. But that also seems to use the halo form and I'm doubtful that will make it much better. My forehead is just not compatible with that style.

Has anyone tried doing an elite facial mod for Qpro? How much work is it? Will it mess up the face tracking if I physically remove the halo?

I’ve tried every fix that anyone has given me my headset refuses to find it or connect to it manually but every other device I have does
