Hololens is slightly more advanced. At least the last I saw it uses waveguides etc. to overlay the content over a transparent panel. Much like Google glasses, but way, way more advanced (and therefore justifiably expensive - last I saw, again, it was something like $15000). AVP is no different to a $300 Quest (plus internal cameras for iris and expression tracking and obnoxiously bad FOV) - it's 10x Apple tax.

Hololens is still alive and kicking btw, but it's exclusively enterprise.

HoloLens 2 was supposed to cost 3500$

also iirc there were cheaper hololens-compatible headsets made by third parties at the time (not anymore) marketed towards consumers
