Meta boss Zuckerberg takes a swipe at rival Apple
By Tom GerkenTechnology reporter
Getty ImagesMeta boss Mark Zuckerberg has taken a personal swipe at rival company Apple’s new headset.
The Vision Pro grabbed headlines as celebrities including Diplo and T-Pain wore it in public, with the “passthrough” feature allowing them to see their surroundings while using it.
But in a video shot using the Meta Quest 3’s own passthrough, Zuckerberg insisted his company’s headset is “the best product, period”.
Apple has been approached for comment.
Passthrough is a feature used by the most recent mixed reality headsets, which allows people to see beyond the screen strapped to their head.

Put simply, much of what is being suggested may cause more harm than good,” he said.
Russell has become a prominent voice in the debate over online safety after the death of his
Can Technology Build a Better Market for Fashion’s Unused Fabrics?
Over the past several years, there’s been a flourishing movement of brands from Reformation to Marine Serre buying up deadstock fabrics unused by others and turning them into collections and sales of their own.
But for all the brands that want to get their hands on these materials, sourcing them remains a mostly analog process that’s time-consuming and difficult to do at scale. Brands often need direct relationships with other designers or mills to get information about their overstock. Or they can turn to jobbers who specialise in selling surplus fabrics and odd lots. Some resort to more hands-on methods.
“Basements,” said Collina Strada designer Hillary Taymour, explaining where she finds her deadstock. “It’s all in the know. A lot of people approach me now, which is nice because that’s a lot easier.”
Digital platforms such as New York-based Queen of Raw and Nona Source, an in-house project from LVMH,
