Sorry gamers, the Apple Vision Pro can't do this one thing the Meta Quest 3 can

Apple Vision Pro

The Apple Vision Pro is arguably one of the most enthralling technological feats we've seen in years. It has mind-blowing eye and hand tracking that can pick up every minute action you make with your retinas and fingers. (The Meta Quest 3 has hand tracking, too, but it's far less sophisticated.) It can scan your face and create a "Persona," a lifelike avatar that represents you in FaceTime. On top of that, the Vision Pro is capable of recording experiences in 3D, allowing you to capture memories in an immersive new dimension and perspective.

However, notably missing from Apple's shabang of a showcase at WWDC 2023 was VR gaming. Sure, we got a glimpse of a user playing Apple Arcade’s NBA 2K23 with a PS5 DualSense controller, but Apple was clearly more focused on positioning the Vision Pro as an AR/VR extension of the Mac, allowing you to stream movies, be productive, and interact with friends in a whole new way.
