Meta Quest Pro, the “most enhanced” VR headset yet from Facebook’s parent company, went on sale earlier this week — but it’ll cost you a pretty penny. The VR headset, which “enables full-color mixed reality” that blends “virtual experience with your physical world,” retails for $1,499.99.
Meta Quest Pro is the first in the brand’s line of high-end VR headsets. The multifunctional VR and MR device provides high-resolution, mixed reality and blends two worlds by allowing you to dip into the virtual realm without leaving your physical environment.
Features include high-resolution sensors that enable full-color, mixed reality experiences, along with advanced LCD displays delivering sharper visuals and “next-generation” pancake optics.
The Meta Quest Pro includes a headset, two self-tracking Meta Quest Touch Pro controllers, stylus tips, partial light blockers, and a charging dock. Each controller has three built-in sensors that track their position in 3D space (independent of the headset) to provide a 360-degree range of motion.
Meta Quest Pro controllers can be used with Meta Quest 2 as well. A standalone pair of controllers ($299.99) will be released later this year. Click here to pre-order the controllers.
Meta Quest Pro features a sleek design, complete with guided Fit Adjustment, eye tracking, and Natural Facial Expressions.
You can order Meta Quest Pro at Amazon, Best Buy, and Meta.com. Additionally, the Meta Quest Pro Compact Charging Dock ($79.99), Meta Quest Pro VR earphones ($49.99), and Meta Quest Pro Carry Case from Incase ($119.95) are on sale now. The Meta Quest Pro Full Lights Blocker ($49.99) will be out Nov. 22.

“Merry Christmas to All,” presented by Live Nation, will take place in December with performances in New York and Toronto. Tickets went on sale at 10 p.m. ET on Friday (Oct. 28).
General admission tickets are currently priced at approximately $85-$110 to $300, and over $3,000 for VIP admission. Carey added two additional shows to Madison Square Garden, which are among the higher-priced tickets.
The music icon posted a Halloween-themed Christmas video on Instagram on Friday with the caption, “See you in December! All 4 shows of #MerryChristmasToAll are on sale now!”
The concert event was initially scheduled for only two nights, but Carey added two additional performances beginning Dec. 9 at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto. Carey will perform another show in Toronto on Dec. 11, before heading home to New York City for concerts at Madison Square Garden on Dec. 13 and Dec. 16.
In addition, buying passes, Carey’s “lambs” will be able to purchase an exclusive t-shirt and a copy of her illustrated holiday fairytale, The Christmas Princess, which drops next Tuesday (Nov. 1).
Carey opened up about writing the story in an interview last year. “I started writing that on a little DX7 or Casio keyboard that was in this little room in the house that I lived in at the time in Upstate New York lifetimes ago,” she told Parade.com. “Just writing down everything that I thought about. All the things that reminded me of Christmas that made me feel festive that I wanted other people to feel.”
With the holiday coming soon, Carey’s 1994 holiday hit, “All I Want for Christmas” is expected to make its seasonal return to the charts. After landing in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 in 2017, “All I Want for Christmas” has gone on to top the Hot 100 for the last three years in a row.

The star walked the purple carpet in an olive green, sequined Rick Owens gown with leather gloves. Her makeup glam was courtesy of Fenty Beauty, and her skin was prepped with Fenty Skin products.
“We wanted the skin to really mimic the beautiful shimmer of her dress,” says Fenty Beauty Global Makeup Artist Priscilla Ono. “We created a diamond-like shimmer on Rihanna’s face and body using her favorite Fenty Beauty Diamond Bomb Highlighter which then allowed her semi-matte neutral pink lips with Fenty Icon Refillable Lipstick in Pose Queen to really pop. We chose a coordinating olive green color for her eyes with Flypencil Eyeliner in Bank Tank and took that shade into her waterline so that it was a fresh and graphic eye look.”
Rihanna will debut “Lift Me Up” from the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack on Friday (Oct. 28). The song is her first solo track since 2016.
“We knew she was at a point in her life as well where she was focusing on different things — focused on business, motherhood, which is a big theme in our film. We were holding out hope that maybe it could work out and boy did it for this song,” director Ryan Coogler told The Hollywood Reporter during the premiere. “I can’t wait for people to hear it.”
Rihanna is officially back to work after welcoming a son with A$AP Rocky in May. Her Savage x Fenty Vol. 4 show premieres on Amazon Prime Video on Nov. 9, while her SuperBowl Halftime Show goes down in February.

Sustainable clothing is becoming more popular. From thrifting to eco-friendly apparel, there are different ways to incorporate sustainable fashions into your wardrobe.

Made from 25 recycled water bottles, these best-selling, compressive, squat-proof, ultra-high rise sustainable leggings have racked up more than 17,000 customer reviews and videos about the viral leggings have received 4.4 billion of TikTok views.
