Shocking Results - Mac Mirroring On Quest 3 vs. Apple Vision Pro!

Will the $4000 Apple Vision Pro give you the best virtual display experience with your Mac? Or does the $500 Meta Quest 3 actually steal the show and do it better? That's what I am here to test in the ultimate Mac Virtual Display Showdown! I have thoroughly tested both headsets and show you all the differences when it comes to mirroring your Mac within the headsets! Enjoy!

Great video. I use my Quest 3 in Immersed as a complement to my triple 1440P setup. It isn't as sharp as my native monitors, but being able to have five monitors and resize them while being in cool virtual environments sometimes get my productivity going. I pretty much do 30 minutes to an hour everyday when I'm in a rut at my work from home setup.

Question: if I have a MacMini, I don't need to use my screen when I go out on a travel, for exemple. Is that correct? Easy to use.

Which headset do you prefer for mirorring your display?

Can’t wait for the AVP to become cheaper.

[RolandDobbins]

Immersed is the best virtual desktop experience on both Quest 3 and AVP.

I used Immersed on Quest 3 with my Macs until I got AVP. Now I use Immersed on AVP.

I don’t understand why you waste your time with the Meta software, instead of immersed.

Good comparision video. All the focus on Apple Vision and VR made me buy the Meta Quest 3, even if I am heavly invested in the Apple ecosystem and not a large fan of Meta.
However, I must say, when I read about what persons end up using Apple Vision Pro on, Meta Quest seems like a very good substitute. I mostly use my Quests for looking at movies and playing games. Playing games on them is really fun. I have also used an app called Pianovision where the Quest is connected to a midi keyboard via an USB cable, which is fun and where it is useful with augmentation.
For me VR/AR glasses represent a fun product, kind of in the same way as Apple TV. While the other Apple products are expensive, they represent value and make me more effective.
I think the right price for an Apple VR/AR product should be in the range of 66%-100% of an iPhone Pro Max, which is more comperable to Meta Quest. I'm not sure if I would have bought them even if they had been cheaper, because games is important, and Apple have never been good on games (I also use the quest with MS Flightsimulator on a PC I use for machine learning).

Or use third-party solutions like Immersed, for example.

Local to me, the AVP has been dropping in price on the used market like crazy! I can find multiple listings for around 2800 Euros.
For reference, a new one would cost me 4449 Euro's!

I can't seem to find any info about this anywhere since no one talks about it, but all I'm wondering is if the quest 3 works well with Mac for productivity and multi screens. Does it support 120hz? Can I only use it on a great wifi so that means it's useless to bring abroad or to do work on a plane/train etc.?

NIce video. One clarification: You can definitely run Meta apps while at the same time mirroring your Mac or PC. Probably the easiest way is to open the Meta Browser, then use Chrome Remote Desktop to mirror your PC or Mac.. Now you can open another 5 Meta Quest apps or browser windows open at the same time.

[jacobfelton]

You can actually use the remote desktop on the home screen on quest it’s just a different app but it’s already downloaded it’s just called meta remote desktop and you’re able to use it alongside other 2-D apps on the meta-quest home screen. And it also uses the same host app on PC or Mac for work rooms

Loving my AVP with a Mac Studio. I'd love to see a video about connecting the AVP to windows and especially the best way to deal with using the same keyboard and mouse for input to both the macOs and windows virtual display.

[TheSpacemanSpliff]

Just curious, how's the Surreal Touch review coming?

[blekenbleu]

Looking forward to Q3 vs AVP on Windows PC...

[fabianmahnke]

I practically never work with a connected computer. On the Quest this is impossible. But on the AVP it works incredibly well due to two things: the apps and webapps themselves working incredibly well in an iOS environment (something I’ve also noticed while working iPad only) and second: the way the AVP and its software is being controlled. This is definitely the way headsets HAVE TO work in the future. Apple has set the right milestone to make VR/MR accessible to people. Now we need to find a good sweet spot in terms of pricing ;-)

[CédricDUBOIS-ix]

Immersed app should have been introduced here since it is available in both environments (but maybe not with the same functionalities)

[kigiphoto]

You mentioned that Vision OS2.0 supports curved screens... but the other thing it will support is two monitors, and already right now the OS2.0 beta automatically passes through keyboards in an immersive environment so you get the same benefit as the desk window, without having to configure a desk surface in the AVP.

For me I can't work with any less resolution than the AVP offers, so working on Quest (2 or 3) never worked for me.

[ianwalker]

Great video - Quest 3 looking really good for working :-)

[FSK]

upgrade to a ultrawide non curved monitor itis a must 29 to 34 is very affordable

[markitos]

They are two different products, why keep comparing? AVP resolution is much higher
