While VR isn’t as big of a booming industry as some hoped it would be, there are a few great VR headsets out there you can snag that don’t need you to also buy an expensive gaming PC. For example, the Meta Quest 3 is an entirely self-contained VR device that is supported by Meta, so it has a reasonably big library and a lot of options when it comes to games and apps. Not only that, but the Meta Quest 3 has some nice upgrades, such as better lenses and a great resolution, and there is even a subscription membership that gives you access to free games. Alternatively, if you’d rather go for something a bit more budget-friendly, you could check out these Meta Quest 2 deals.

Should you buy the Meta Quest 3?

Make the jump into virtual reality with the Meta Quest 3. The headset features a very simple design, but it offers realistic graphics, quick load times, and seamless gameplay through the powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 chipset. Instead of eye tracking, it uses an extensive camera-tracking setup that enables advanced mixed reality. It runs for up to 2.2 hours on a single charge with average, and once the Meta Quest 3’s battery goes empty, it only take 2 hours of charging with its 18W power adapter to get to full charge. The new Touch Plus controllers of the Meta Quest 3 utilize AI algorithms and an IR sensor, and they’re powered by AA batteries.

In our Meta Quest 3 versus Meta Quest 2 comparison, the only negative about the latest model of the VR headset is its higher price. However, it does everything better than its predecessor, including improved image clarity through the use of pancake lenses, color passthrough for better mixed reality, 30% more resolution at 2064 x 2208 pixels per eye, a GPU that’s twice as fast, and 40% louder sound.

I thought budget Windows laptops were dead, but Computex gave me new hope
I went to Computex for the powerful machines, but found a new budget surprise
Dell XPS 13 at Computex 2026

Budget Windows laptops have had a stale reputation for a while now. While the best part is their affordable pricing, the notebooks are often a little depressing to hold. You know exactly what I’m talking about if you haven’t been exclusive to the Apple ecosystem. Plastic bodies that flex too much, dim screens, and mushy keyboards. The spec sheet might look fine for the price, but the actual machine rarely excites.

During my recent trip to Taiwan for Computex 2026, I was looking forward to the most powerful gaming rigs and all the cool new tech at the event. You expect to see the best of the best from tech giants, so you’re not really looking out for budget announcements. But this year, the most interesting laptop story was not only about monster gaming rigs, AI workstations, or ultra-expensive creator machines.

Scammers have found a new way to reach shoppers: getting ChatGPT to do their marketing for them. According to The Guardian, scam-checking service Ask Silver found that OpenAI's chatbot is recommending fraudulent retail websites built to harvest payment details from unsuspecting buyers. The sites mimic real storefronts and use official-looking URLs, making them difficult to spot without scrutiny.

Defunct brands are a prime target

McDonald’s new AI drive-thru has to prove it can handle hungry people
After its earlier ordering bot became a punchline, McDonald’s is testing a new system that promises fewer human handoffs.

McDonald’s is bringing AI back to the drive-thru with a new Google-backed system called ArchIQ, also known as Archy. It’s starting in five locations under the company’s broader “> NEXT” technology push, with a franchisee claiming the system has already handled more than 1 million orders.

The bigger number is the one McDonald’s needs people to trust. About 90% of those orders reportedly needed no human intervention. That sounds promising, but this is not a clean reset. Its earlier IBM-backed AI drive-thru experiment ended after viral mistakes turned automated ordering into a public punchline.
