Meta's Ambitious Push into Augmented Reality
Meta Platforms, formerly Facebook, is set to launch its long-awaited AR glasses in Q2 2025. CEO Mark Zuckerberg described the product as “the most advanced wearable technology of the decade.” While the market is excited, skeptics point to Meta’s heavy losses in its Reality Labs division, which exceeded $4 billion in Q4 2024.
The AR glasses are priced at $2,500, targeting enterprise and tech-savvy early adopters. This bold move has sparked debate: will AR glasses boost Meta’s stock, or is it another costly gamble?
