I mean it's easy to put better hadware when price is 7x.

Dude you never played vr games... Apple is garbage for VR gaming and that's an objective opinion.

[riddlemethis]

Most people misunderstood what Mark said when he said "the quest is the better product".

The product is more than just the hardware, which he admitted was great on the vision. But for the average consumer and the things they want to do in VR it is more likely they'll be able to do those things in the quest. The biggest use cases right now are exercise and gaming. Both of which are much better in the quest. At least as things stand today.

I got a Quest 2 on sale recently for roughly $150 and I’ve been impressed, especially with wireless Steam VR. That’s the killer app.

gotta take into account the massive library of games for the quest as well as sideloading due to it being android based, compared to the lackluster set of ipad games for the vision pro

The apple meat riding in this video is very strong 😂😂

[MobileDecay]

Simping for Apple. Yeah the display is amazing(I tried it) but it's too heavy, too expensive, and lacks software experiences. The Vision Pro better have better hardware for $3500.! In fact, it better replace your existing PC which it does not! As for external mic support people asked for it! And yes! Why wouldn't they want more people giving them free advertising?! Also, voice chat is a thing that people use.

What the quest needs most is hand tracking in steam VR when you lay down, so you dont have to take three controlers into your bed just for playing Hitman on a big screen

I'm aware of the shortcomings of the quest 3, but so many of the situations you showed it in seemed specifically placed to slander it. There is a best case scenario for everything as well as a worst case.

All things considered, the quest 3's anchoring is pretty phenomenal too. I've been able to walk around the house and still have the screen I put somewhere remaining in the same place very accurately.
The passthrough is significantly better than I think you give it credit for. It's not perfect, but it's damn good, especially given the hardware it's running on.

It's incredibly important to give credit where credit is due, and I personally think that this video was a bit biased in favour of the vision pro. Let's not forget that it also costs 700% of what a quest costs.

[jamarmillo]

How much apple pays you. You should take classes on biased behavior. You made it too obvious💯

[boijorzee]

The Zuck was actually right. The Quest 3 IS the better product. Maybe not for "spatial computing" and watching video's but for everything else it is. And everything else just happens to be the stuff people actually buy a VR headset for.

[nerddeku]

We already started with nonsensical things at the beginning of the video:

1- Is Apple Vision Pro more powerful? yes it's more literally we don't have VR games for him so how will he use this performance? It's made for productivity so there's no comparison, it's like I have an RTX 4090 to use Chrome.

2- does the Apple vision pro have a better passthrough? Yes, but the difference isn't too big to justify the value, it only benefits from not having distortions like in Meta Quest 3.

3- those eyes that you can see outside the device are horrible, or it's difficult to see them and how much do you see the quality is low.

[khangvinh]

The quest has always been been a better choice both with pricing and usage. I literally don’t understand how Apple can release a product with barely any apps and somehow expect independent developers to start investing into it when there are no clear interests.

[takayukikuroki]

Plug and play steering wheels, other peripherals etc would be awesome.

[fazervalez]

You can record spatial video on the Quest 3 when you adjust some of the settings. See the video of Hugh Hou about that. I made a spatial video using my Quest 3.

[Bendydog]

With regards to the Mike thing. I know loads of people who do karaoke in VR are super excited about this, just what I've observed in Banter VR, I'm sure it's likely the same on other platforms.

[Honza]

Is this sponsored by Apple wtf. Where did objectivity in reviews go?

[chadwickburdick]

You have grown so much when it comes to video making Kyler! Excited for more!

[JoTokutora]

This guy is a natural at speaking to the camera
