In October 2023, Meta released the Meta Quest 3 mixed reality headset, boasting a 25 PPD 4K+ Infinite Display with 2064x2208 resolution per eye — 30% more pixels and 25% higher PPD than Quest 2 and around 14% PPD boost over Quest Pro [1‐4]. Quest 3 comprises two 2.48′ 1218 PPI displays, with hybrid backplane and low‐persistence backlight to provide end‐users the superior visual quality, comfortness, and minimal latency. This paper outlines Quest 3 display architecture, immersive performances, and some key design challenges.
