Apple Vision Pro vs Meta Quest 3

These headsets aren't really competing for the same buyer, so the right pick comes down to what you'll do most. If gaming is your priority, the Meta Quest 3 ($499) wins decisively thanks to its enormous game library, motion controllers, and standalone affordability. If you want a spatial-computing and productivity device for working with floating ultra-sharp displays, the Apple Vision Pro ($3,499) is unmatched in display quality and passthrough fidelity. The genuinely close call is the middle band — movies, fitness, and social VR — where both deliver, and the seven-fold price gap, not the spec sheet, should decide it. For most people the question isn't 'which is better' but 'which tier do I belong to': the $299 Quest 3S, the $499 Quest 3, or the $3,499 Vision Pro.
