Meta Quest v66 Update: Reduced Passthrough Distortion, Background Audio Support, and More

With v66, we’re reducing the amount of visual distortion in Passthrough on Meta Quest 3. We’ve put out a number of Passthrough-related improvements in the last few software updates, but this is the big one, and it will significantly improve the Mixed Reality experience. Check out the blog for all the details: https://www.meta.com/blog/quest/meta-quest-v66-software-update-reduced-passthrough-distortion-background-audio

    Three versions later the Lakeside Peak environment finally makes its appearance. May have been worth the wait as this will be one of my favorites.

    Problem with losing headset pairing with Air Link after power downing still exists. However you no longer have to go into system setting to first disable link and re-enable to initiate the pairing. As I recall this was the exact behavior in much earlier releases probably when Air Link was still experimental.

    Nothing like taking two steps back for every step forward.

      I have had 66.0.0.730.370 for a few days and I have tried a 6g and a 5g wi-fi connection but I found that 6e 6g connections will drop for a split second. So I have gone back to 5g but for virtual desktop I would like to ise a 6g connection.

        Got the update yesterday... 66.0.0.730.370 for Q3 to be precise.
        3 weeks after public announcement - better than never.

        But:

        • no standby option in power off menu
        • no reduction in distortion

        Would such things also come "in waves" or what?

            My Quest 3 updated to v66 but the passthrough looks about the same (still a lot of distortion).  Is there a setting I need to adjust in the options somewhere?

            Also any ETA about the bug fix with the constant WiFi disconnected?
