腾讯与Meta的XR业务合作突然中止，双方原计划在中国市场推出一款Quest 3入门版头显。据VR陀螺报道，腾讯高层上月收到了来自Meta的一份书面文件，表明将暂停目前Meta与腾讯在这一代XR硬件上的合作。
这份报告将其描述为“将双方在XR业务上的合作拉至冰点”“标志着腾讯代理Quest硬件业务阶段性中止”。报道给出了腾讯、Meta在XR业务合作终止的可能原因：双方相关团队在项目诸多推进细节上存在矛盾冲突，且理念不合。
双方原本的合作是准备在中国市场推出一款“Quest 3入门版”XR设备，参数对标Quest 2。报道称，这款Quest 3入门版除芯片升级外，其他参数“几乎与Quest 2一致”。不过，这项计划仅停留于书面规划。
此前，《华尔街日报》曾在去年11月称Meta已与腾讯达成初步协议，将在中国大陆销售其新的低价版VR头显。知情人士表示，新协议将使腾讯成为Meta头显在中国大陆的独家销售商，为Meta提供一个重要的新市场，因为它希望提振全球对其小众设备的不温不火的需求。
然而，现在这一合作计划已经戛然而止，对于腾讯和Meta来说，无疑是一个重大打击。这也再次提醒我们，科技行业的合作并非易事，需要双方在许多细节上达成一致，同时也需要有足够的信任和理解。

Title: Suspension of Tencent-Meta Collaboration, Quest 3 Starter Edition May Fade Away
Keywords: Tencent-Meta collaboration, suspension of XR hardware, Quest 3 starter edition
News Content: The collaboration between Tencent and Meta in the XR business has abruptly come to an end. Both parties had planned to launch a Quest 3 starter edition headset in the Chinese market. According to VR陀螺， senior executives of Tencent received a written document from Meta last month indicating that they would suspend their current cooperation on this generation of XR hardware.
The report describes it as “pulling the cooperation between the two sides in the XR business to a freezing point” and “marking a phased suspension of Tencent’s agency for Quest hardware business.” The report gives possible reasons for the termination of Tencent-Meta cooperation in the XR business: conflicts and disagreements exist among the relevant teams on various aspects of the project.
The original cooperation was to launch a “Quest 3 starter edition” XR device in the Chinese market, with parameters comparable to those of Quest 2. Reportedly, this Quest 3 starter edition, apart from chip upgrades, has almost all parameters “in line with Quest 2.” However, this plan only exists on paper.
Earlier, The Wall Street Journal said in November that Meta had initially reached an agreement with Tencent to sell its new low-cost VR headset in mainland China. People familiar with the matter said that the new agreement would make Tencent the sole seller of Meta’s headset in mainland China, providing Meta with an important new market, as it hopes to boost its lukewarm demand for its niche devices worldwide.
However, now this cooperation plan has suddenly stopped, which is undoubtedly a heavy blow to both Tencent and Meta. This also reminds us once again that cooperation in the technology industry is not easy and requires both parties to agree on many details and have sufficient trust and understanding.
