Meta confirms Reality Labs layoffs and shifts to invest more in wearables

Around 10 percent of Meta's Reality Labs division, which develops its XR products and services, will be laid off beginning on Tuesday, as reported by Bloomberg.

Meta spokesperson Tracy Clayton confirmed the layoffs in a statement to The Verge: "We said last month that we were shifting some of our investment from Metaverse toward Wearables. This is part of that effort, and we plan to reinvest the savings to support the growth of wearables this year."
