The Meta Connect event is set for September 23, and recent findings suggest we might have caught a glimpse of one of the standout devices that Meta is likely to introduce. Images uncovered in the HorizonOS Prescription Lens app indicate that the much-anticipated Project Phoenix headset will depart from the usual Quest style.
Rather than following the typical headset design, Project Phoenix appears to opt for a more streamlined aesthetic. The images suggest that it resembles bulkier glasses, with nose pads ensuring a secure fit and sensors positioned around the temples. The overall design brings to mind the XREAL Aura glasses, which feature a similar configuration.
