Apple Vision Pro claims it is "the era of spatial computing," competing with other mixed reality headsets, like Meta Quest 3, but how does it impact office work and productivity?

We bought and tested the Apple Vision Pro and Meta Quest 3, comparing them to each other and traditional office setups, examining:

  • How do mixed reality headsets compare to a PC for daily office use?
  • What advantages or disadvantages do these headsets have compared to monitors when paired with a PC?
  • How do these headsets affect productivity for office use?
  • What are the fundamental technical differences between the headsets?

This is the first of a series of reports where we test both headsets for various use cases in physical security.
