Pre-orders for the Oculus Quest 2 were five times higher than Oculus Quest, according to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
In a call with investors following Facebook's financial results, Zuckerberg said that pre-orders for the new standalone VR device far outstripped Oculus Quest -- and " surpassed our expectations."
Oculus Quest 2 was announced in September, alongside news that the original Oculus Quest and Rift would both be discontinued. The device launched on October 13, and Zuckerberg's comment on pre-orders is the first time Facebook has given an official perspective on sales.
Facebook Reality labs was a common theme throughout the investor call, with Zuckerberg and his executive team talking up "big investments that we're making in our longer term AR/VR work."
Zuckerberg pointed to "ten million active [VR] units" as the next milestone Facebook wants to reach.
