It is clear that it is not a Quest 2, since it doesn’t feature mind-blowing features like big FOV or eye-tracking or full-fingers controllers, so it is something like a Quest S. Its 1,600 × 1,600 LCD display per-eye, together with eye tracking and 5G make me dream of great experimentations, especially in the enterprise sector.
