Wearables are massive now, and Apple’s latest spatial computer got a special Mark Zuckerberg Vision Pro review released on Instagram, and it has been the talk of the town for days now. This was because the Meta CEO made a lot of significant claims against the Vision Pro (while also praising some of its strengths), saying that his company’s Quest 3 is better overall.
The public has since commented on Zuckerberg’s review, calling this his “Steve Ballmer moment,” best known for his criticism of the iPhone.
Steve Ballmer’s Moment: Zuckerberg on Vision Pro
After Mark Zuckerberg’s latest video review on the Vision Pro, the world was quick to react to what the Meta CEO had to say about Cupertino’s top technology, calling this his “Steve Ballmer moment.” Notably, Microsoft’s former CEO before Satya Nadella, Steve Ballmer, previously criticized the arrival of the iPhone and claimed that it would not be appealing.
In Zuckerberg’s words, the Vision Pro is good, especially with its high-resolution display, but it is seven times more expensive than the Quest 3, which people could get the same experience, with better features too.
“500 dollars? Fully subsidized? With a plan? I said that is the most expensive phone in the world. And it doesn’t appeal to business customers because it doesn’t have a keyboard. Which makes it not a very good email machine.”

Many recount the days when Ballmer said harsh words to the iPhone, going as far as to say that it was a “waste of money,” one that does not have a keyboard and a mouse for a $500 smartphone.

Mark Zuckerberg’s Vision Pro Review
Zuckerberg released his Vision Pro review via his Instagram account, and the 3-minute Reel talked about how Quest 3 is the “better product period.”
The Meta CEO talked about how overall, the Quest 3 is better, citing the form factor and the 120-gram weight of the device, also boasting of how the entire video was shot via his company’s mixed-reality device. Moreover, Zuck also mentioned that Quest 3 is meant for various features like playing games or socializing, also having no wires.
Apple Vision Pro and Meta Quest 3
Last June. ahead of the WWDC 2023 slated event, Meta and Mark Zuckerberg stormed the tech world when he announced the latest wearable from the company, the Quest 3, its first take on mixed-reality headsets. This went ahead of the Apple Vision Pro reveal, and it also promised that it would be available earlier than Cupertino’s, one that was released in September.
Since then, there have been massive comparisons between the Quest 3 and the Vision Pro which was only previewed to the world, calling Apple’s device the better mixed-reality experience. However, the harsh comments against Meta’s Quest 3 went as far as to call it “cheap” and “hardly” a mixed-reality device, yet it still had mixed reviews from those who have used it.
Lately, Meta remained unfazed by the arrival of the Vision Pro earlier this February, with the company optimistic about its arrival and will give the world more comparison for the Quest 3 and validate their purchase of the wearable.
Zuckerberg’s latest video review of the Vision Pro saw him only talking about the Vision Pro, with the executive sharing his experience with it and is not that impressed compared to the Quest 3, drawing comparisons to Microsoft’s former CEO.
