[ad_1] The design also takes cues from the Korine’s new film, which was shot on Spectacles 3 and enhanced with 3D effects made specifically for the film. Set in Miami, it features a couple of panda furries, a guy with headphones in a hot-dog costume and plenty of pastel-colored Snap effects. Snap described it as […]

Transit’s Apple Watch app returns after two-year hiatus
[ad_1] There are still plenty of features that will require pulling out your iPhone, including directions and Uber hailing. You can use Apple Maps and other navigation apps for that, though, and this arguably makes the Apple Watch considerably more useful for commuters who don’t drive. Transit doesn’t necessarily herald a resurgence of Apple Watch […]
Oculus Go is on sale for $120 at Amazon for Cyber Monday
[ad_1] The same caveats apply. The Go is limited to tracking head movements, not body movements like the Oculus Quest, and the lone remote is relatively simple. You’ll want to pass if you dream of playing Beat Saber. We found the Go ideal for basic apps and videos, however. It’s easy to use, comfortable and […]

Garmin’s Forerunner 645 (a staff favorite) is 50 percent off at Amazon
[ad_1] As you may have heard, Team Engadget is spending some time this week perusing Black Friday deals. I was sifting through some sales today, and it turns out my favorite running watch is on sale. In fact, I’m wearing it on my wrist as I type this. At full price ($400) I might not […]
Oculus Go drops to $150 on Amazon in Black Friday sale
[ad_1] The Go has its limitations. It can track your head movements, but it doesn’t have the body-tracking six degrees of freedom you’ll find in the Oculus Quest and many PC VR headsets. At this price, however, it’s an easy pick for simpler VR games, apps and 360-degree video. For that matter, it’s helpful if […]
Is the Valve Index the best high-end VR headset?
[ad_1] As VR becomes more and more mainstream, a key to its success will be the choice of headsets available. On the entry-level end is the HTC Vive, at $99. On the upper end is Valve’s Index, which features two RGB LCDs running at 1,440 x 1,600 pixels, capable of a 120Hz (or 144Hz) refresh […]
Rip Curl and Surfline team up to serve videos of your surf sessions
[ad_1] This isn’t a trivial investment when you’re looking at $300 for the watch and another $8 per month for Surfline. With that said, could be worthwhile if you’re either trying to improve your surfing skills or like to share your clips. And if you’re not inclined to use a Search GPS 2, you’ll be […]

[ad_1] WH-1000XM3 Currently, you can get Sony’s excellent WH-1000XM3 headphones for $278, instead of $350 — with both the black and silver models included in the sale. The current sale matches Amazon’s lowest price for the WH-1000XM3s. We gave the over-the-ear headphones a score of 94 when we reviewed them last year. They feature best-in-class […]
Cows wearing VR headsets might produce better milk
[ad_1] It appears to have worked, at least on a basic level. The first test reduced the cows’ anxiety and boosted their overall sentiment. While it’s not certain how well this affects the quality or volume of milk, there are plans for a more “comprehensive” study to answer that question. The research begs a few […]
