The Oculus Quest 2 VR headset launched on October 13, 2020 at $299 for the 64GB model. Facebook renamed itself Meta a year later.
How we worked it out: Launch price: $299 for the 64GB model. We put the $299 into Meta stock at its closing price on October 13, 2020 ($273.52, adjusted for later stock splits and dividends) and value those shares at today's price. Launch prices are US list prices before tax.
