Meta Platforms Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg introduced the latest version of the company's virtual-reality headset, called Meta Quest 3.

The Meta Quest 3, powered by a new chip from Qualcomm, will be 40% thinner and have updated displays and resolution. Zuckerberg said in a video on social media that it is the company's most powerful headset yet.

Meta's new VR headset is expected to go on sale this fall and will start at $499, Zuckerberg said. The company will release additional details at its Connect conference in September, he said.

The announcement comes days ahead of Apple's annual Worldwide Developers Conference next week, where it too is expected to debut a new VR headset.
