Is this your first Meta Connect? Here’s a recap of last year to give you an idea of what’s coming.

Firstly, don’t surprised if there’s a delay – last year, Mark Zuckerberg took to the stage a little after the scheduled start time.

Still, once he arrived, he rolled off a decent list of announcements. We got our first glimpse of the Orion AR glasses, Meta’s first holographic spectacles that are controlled with a wristband. Expect to hear more about those today.

We also saw the launch of the Meta Quest 3S, which we branded the “world’s best affordable VR headset” despite having inferior displays to its pricier Quest 3 sibling. Inevitably, we also got plenty of Meta AI news, including a new voice mode for its AI chatbot and AI image generation for Facebook and Instagram.

Personally, I’m not too fussed about Meta’s AI innovations compared to its Quest and smart glasses tech. Fortunately, it sounds like Connect 2025 is going to go pretty big on the latter…

Hello, and welcome to our Meta Connect 2025 liveblog. I think this is going to be the most hardware-packed Connect event for a few years, so it’s definitely going to be worth a watch – whatever your thoughts on Meta and Mark Zuckerberg.

I’ll be taking you through what we can expect to see, the last-minute leaks and what this all means for smart glasses. Meta may have made a few missteps (remember the metaverse, anyone?), but you can’t deny it’s the current leader in face-mounted tech.

Let’s take a look at what’s likely coming our way in just under nine hours’ time…
