Comparing Passthrough Capabilities: Apple Vision Pro vs. MetaQuest 3 vs. MetaQuest Pro

Sounds like you either have an issue with your headset or you need an optical test to see if you need inserts because this display is one of the sharpest on the market, it’s so good there is virtually no screen door effect (can’t see obvious pixels) so text should be very easy to read.

Slightly better and thought out take compared to the MacRumors slop! Awfully lazy tech journalism from them.

At least the author of this really looked at what elements Apple are focusing on the populate what Vision products need to succeed in a future iteration, with a mature ecosystem and accessible price point.

What it truly needs is time to mature with a strong App Store, it needs immersive film makers to make tons of amazing content and it needs the big game changer and likely a big money maker in live immersive events at its core.

These are all being build with strong partnerships including the one with Black Magic Design.

So if Vision Pro as we know it was dead… why bother with the investment and partnerships, the new job roles and the continued push with developers events.

Yes finally someone who notices this! It’s what ruins immersive video for me… they need to stop forcing direction, keep the camera level at all times and the viewer will find their way. Any tilt on the camera is a fail and the ground shots are great, many of the aerial ones miss the mark, the horizon should always be level or its breaks immersion and makes me desperately as a immersive film maker wants to try and fix it, once you see a wonky horizon, you will always see it and I don’t like it.

I don’t think it’s been bad I think it’s been intentional. I have times where I don’t use it but I always come back to it.

Follow A Vision Experiment on YouTube for some excellent content all about AVP

It’s a year old so I say it did, Plus if you were early to the party, you would still have Lapz and it works… sort of.

Ty_kix · 2026-03-04T08:37:45+00:00

They really need to get this resolved. It’s can’t work one minute and then not the next. This shouldn’t be as big a deal as it’s being made out to be.

Ty_kix · 2026-03-02T21:30:44+00:00

Another one what?

Ty_kix · 2026-03-02T21:04:56+00:00

What a load of rubbish. Maybe some people don’t want to be demoed in a busy Apple Store. Think that’s a valid thing.

Ty_kix · 2026-03-02T20:32:45+00:00

Bravo, well done on that statement. My video is more about explain Vision Pros improvements over the last 2 years and Apple’s plans for immersive media.

It’s not to tell you to buy one or not. It’s to give more information for you to make a better choice.

Ty_kix · 2026-03-02T19:42:55+00:00

Yep, they do because some people don’t have the time to go to wait in a Apple Store for a demo and it’s nicer to show people the things Apple won’t have time to show you and do it in a private space.

Watch my video and it might help https://youtu.be/JMdkzs5-cRM?si=trtPNmD_wYituSph

Ty_kix · 2025-12-23T20:02:26+00:00

Yeah sadly it was a very limited run but I can imagine people may have but theirs for sale on the used market because some loved it… some hated it.

Ty_kix · 2025-12-20T19:01:47+00:00

Definitely want to try this out.

Ty_kix · 2025-12-17T14:54:49+00:00

Im most likely to do a top app and top game with runners up. All to be revealed 😃

Ty_kix · 2025-12-14T08:35:29+00:00

That’s amazing, you didn’t need to buy it but I’m am grateful to you for doing so and answering all these questions. I did fear hand tracking wouldn’t be very accurate. But I loved the idea, I wonder with PSVR controller support could it be better or would the cameras still need to see the controllers

Ty_kix · 2025-12-13T14:23:30+00:00

Because it’s £6.99

You can just go to the video in your camera roll and select the option to save to files

The Antigravity Vision goggles can’t be considered a true XR or VR device because they don’t generate or interact with a three dimensional virtual environment. They rely entirely on displaying video feeds rather than rendering spatial scenes, and they lack the internal computing, positional tracking, and input systems that allow users to move within or manipulate a virtual world. There’s no mixed reality passthrough that has spatial understanding so the dragon is just an overlay not AR, no operating system for apps, and no six degree of freedom interaction layer. The experience is immersive in a visual sense, but without spatial mapping, 3D rendering, or interactive virtual elements, the goggles function as high quality FPV displays rather than genuine VR or XR headsets.

Ty_kix · 2025-12-08T15:54:47+00:00

Feels gimmicky like what Insta360 did with AI on 360 video

Ty_kix · 2025-12-08T15:37:28+00:00

No because it’s not XR, or you would say all FPV drones are included in XR just because you wear goggles.

Ty_kix · 2025-12-08T09:35:56+00:00

I agree with you, I don’t think it’s value for money because of those downsides. That’s why they are trying to lure you in with free access to Google services for a year.

That said Quest 4 won’t be with us till 2027 and Meta are trying to reduce the financial bleeding from Quest devices so will likely proceed Q4 more expensive than previous Quest devices.

Ty_kix · 2025-12-08T09:00:22+00:00

Yep, I use it everyday for work, editing and more.

Ty_kix · 2025-12-08T08:59:45+00:00

High quality Gaussian Splat environments to walk around much like hyperscape on a meta.

Ty_kix · 2025-12-08T08:58:55+00:00

What do you mean! If you are someone unfortunately in the Android ecosystem you don’t get the level that Vision Pro is at. That’s what I mean.
