“Every example they showed was a person sitting alone on a couch. “It may be the vision of the future of computing, but that’s not what I want,” Zuckerberg said, referring to Apple’s panel at WWDC 2023.

Competition for the mixed reality market

Zuckerberg’s speeches show a certain relief from Meta. Despite everything, Big tech was in the spotlight before the Apple headset was announced earlier this week.

The brand invests billions of dollars a year to position itself as a leader in the virtual and augmented reality segment.. Quest devices have entered the mainstream computing market, even if they have been successful in VR games and applications.

Thus, Vision Pro emerges as a major competitive threat. Although Apple’s product was announced days ago, Quest 3 won’t be in stores before the last quarter of 2023.
