At the recent World Economic Forum 2022 (WEF 2022), Nokia's CEO claimed that 6G could be available as early as 2030 and that it could make smartphones obsolete. That got many people thinking, "What device could take the place of this incredibly useful gadget?" Lundmark says smart glasses could replace them, and I'm inclined to agree.

For the vast majority of casual gamers, the hype around the game Among Us has petered out. Of course, good developers always find ways to improve their game and accessibility. This time around, Innersloth has something big to announce for the game.

If you recall, Facebook changed its company name to Meta at the end of October 2021. CEO Mark Zuckerberg said that the rebrand is to symbolise the 'metaverse'. Well, that metaverse is making its debut starting with North America.

Remember the mixed reality headset that Apple is allegedly working on? There hasn't been much news in recent months, but we're finally getting some new rumours about it. Sources claim that Apple's headset could require a secondary device.

2020 might not have treated some of us well, what with the COVID-19 virus still at large. But a lot of great stuff happened in the tech space in the past year including (but not limited to) product launches, VR headsets, PC components, new technologies, and more.

If you are really into virtual reality (VR) and want to get multiple Oculus headsets for your family, you probably want to take note of this. It has been reported that Facebook has been banning the accounts of users who are using it simultaneously on multiple Oculus series VR headsets.

Virtual reality (VR) has never gone mainstream and there are few obvious reasons. For one, price is a barrier to entry as most VR headsets are expensive. But lack of depth in content and what VR users call the "screen door" effect is another. Fortunately, there could now be a solution for that last part.

Based on a statement by gizmochina, it seems that Huawei has recently unveiled the VR Glass 6DOF game set which consists of a VR headset, as well as two 360-degree Joysticks during the 2020 World VR Industry Conference Cloud Summit. While there is no official information in terms of whether the device will be available in Malaysia, there is no official information in regards to the pricing other than it will most likely be priced higher than RMB2999 (~RM1863)

If there's one thing that few expected, it's Apple working on car technology. But the company has allegedly been working on an Apple Car and a new patent with some details have emerged. Based on the patent published on USPTO, we see that the vehicle will have some special passenger security features and an in-car VR system.

Usually, big game titles are scheduled at the end of the year and this is very much the case for Sony's PlayStation 5 and Microsoft's Xbox Series X.

Apart from replaying or catching up games, TIME Magazine have listed their Top 8 Best Video Games of 2020 (So Far) from the PC, Nintendo Switch, PS4 and there's even one on a VR platform.
