Market research firm CounterPoint Research released a blog report yesterday (September 12th) stating that in the second quarter of 2025, Meta led the global extended reality (XR including virtual reality VR and augmented reality AR) headset market with a 71% market share. In the virtual reality (VR) market, global VR headset shipments in the second quarter of 2025 decreased by 2% year-on-year and 15% quarter-on-quarter. Sales of Meta, Sony, and Apple all declined, but Meta still held the largest market share. Meta's Quest 3S was still the best-selling VR headset in the second quarter of 2025, with the 128GB version performing the best. However, Meta's overall VR shipments decreased by 11% quarter-on-quarter to 710,000 units, highlighting a weakening demand after the initial high demand for the Quest 3 series. Sony's PlayStation VR2 remained in second place, while Apple's Vision Pro shipments slightly declined.
