The Meta Quest Pro is as wireless as the Meta Quest 2. The headset does not require an external device for use because of its long-lasting battery, which again can be charged with a wireless charging dock. So, is the Meta Quest Pro wireless? Yes. Yes, it is. However we’ve been asked this question a lot, so we thought we’d answer it to clear up any confusion.

The controls have built-in sensors making it possible to track their position in 3D space, independent of the headset.

This is a big improvement over the Meta Quest 2 as it means that you won’t experience any dead zones, this is a particularly big advantage when it comes to gaming and exercise. Additionally, with the Meta Quest Pro being 4K (sort of), it might just be the best VR gaming headset out there.
