On June 9, it was reported that Mark Zuckerberg, the chief executive of Meta, did not seem uneasy about Apple's launch of the first hybrid reality head display VisionPro. At a company plenary meeting held on Thursday local time in the United States, he stated that this device may represent the future computing vision, but it is not what he wants.

Zuckerberg stated at the meeting that Apple VisionPro has not made any significant breakthroughs in technology that has not yet been "explored" by Meta, and the company's vision of how people use this device is "not what I want". He also pointed out that Meta's upcoming Quest3 head display is much cheaper at just $499, while VisionPro is priced at $3499, giving Meta the opportunity to reach a wider user base.

Zuckerberg told his employees, "I think their statement does showcase the differences in values and visions between our two companies, which is very important." These employees gathered at Meta's headquarters in Menlo Park, California to attend their first full body meeting since 2020. Zuckerberg said that Quest aims to make people interact in new ways and feel closer, while also making them more proactive and able to do more things.

By contrast, every demonstration Apple performs is sitting alone on the sofa, "he said of Apple WWDC's keynote speech earlier this week. What I mean is, this may represent the future vision of computing, but it's not what I want

Zuckerberg may have breathed a sigh of relief now, but Meta must have been in a state of tension until Apple released its statement. Just a few days ago, Meta released Quest3, although this device won't be shipped until autumn. For a long time, Meta has been trying to position itself as a leader in the fields of virtual reality and augmented reality, investing billions of dollars in research and development every year, which has raised concerns among many investors. The launch of Apple's headphone signifies a significant competitive threat.

Meta has achieved initial success in the VR gaming and fitness fields, but it has encountered difficulties in trying to enter the high-end and general-purpose computing markets that Apple is chasing. The QuestPro launched last year is basically considered a failed product. (Small)
