zdnet states that Meta Quest 3 is more suitable for gaming and exercise. Because it is lightweight and can load a variety of games to play, unlike Apple Vision Pro, which although it has larger capacity and superior processing system but when used it feels heavier. It's not as flexible in movement as Meta Quest 3
However, with a higher screen resolution and support for a variety of streaming platforms makes the Apple Vision Pro an ideal device for watching media such as movies, series and sporting events.
And for anyone primarily concerned with price, Meta Quest 3 definitely comes out ahead in this regard. The cheapest model will be the 128GB model at 18,000 baht, which is different from the Apple Vision Pro which starts at 126,200 baht, but if you look at the capacity and amount of use, Apple considers the Vision Pro to have an advantage, and in this regard, the maximum capacity of the Apple Vision is Pro is 1TB, while the Meta Quest 3 has a maximum capacity of only 512GB.
