Stop comparing Zuck and Cook's headsets. They're built around sharply different visions of the future.

Its headset is probably best used for gaming, and the ads for the Quest emphasize movement. The cost of the Quest 3 gives it much more mass-market potential, increasing the likelihood that your friends might also have a Quest 3, and that you can meet them in a metaverse. The price is also comparable with the Xbox Series X.once when it unveiled the Vision Pro at WWDC, and barely mentioned gaming. The price, at $3,500, is closer to the retail price for top-of-the-range Macbooks.

The Vision Pro is, in my estimation, not just good enough for doing traditional computer work in, but arguably better in many important ways ; that is important to justifying the high price. The Quest isn't , so it's not only good that it's a lot cheaper, but it also makes much more sense to be focused on a category like gaming in particular. And, in that category, $500 is the same price as the high-end PS5 and Xbox Series X.

Yes, the comparisons are inevitable. These are two of the biggest companies in the world, and the Quest headset was the best-known entry point into virtual or mixed reality until Apple entered the arena. But Meta and Apple have differing visions for these headsets. To oversimplify, one is in competition with and an evolution of an Xbox, and the other is in competition with and an evolution of a laptop. Subscribe to push notifications
