I've got a Vive, it's nice but I wouldn't say it's comparable to the Apple headset. It's VR only, like Meta's but Apple are trying to do both AR and VR. The biggest difference though is in the displays. The Vive is great for gaming but that's about it. Movies don't look to great and working with text is a horrible experience due to the low resolution and the screen door effect.
Apple's is probably the first "affordable" headset that can be used as a replacement for a monitor.
