Why you should buy the Razer Edge

The Razer Edge is a unique alternative to handheld consoles that takes the Android route for an operating system. Running on the Snapdragon Qualcomm G3x Gen 1 CPU and 6GB of RAM, the Edge is more than capable when it comes time to stream your favorite games. And thanks to Wi-Fi 6E support, you should have no issues connecting the device to the internet.

The 6.8-inch AMOLED screen delivers exceptional picture quality at up to 2880 x 1080 resolution. When it comes to any type of gaming, motion clarity is always a major concern. Fortunately, the Edge is able to achieve up to a 144Hz native refresh rate, allowing handheld titles to operate with little to no in-game ghosting and lag. On a full charge, you can also expect over 10 hours of battery life. 

The Razer Edge only has 128GB of storage to play with. If you do decide you need more bytes, the Edge works with microSD cards (2TB max). Other features include THX Spatial Audio for enhanced stereo sound, a front-facing 1080p camera, and Razer’s HyperSense Haptics technology.

It’s hard to beat a markdown this good for a game system, even if it isn’t one that’s meant to be connected to your TV. Save $150 when you purchase the Razer Edge through Razer. But what about traditional console and PC gaming? We have a solid list of gaming PC deals and gaming console deals for you to check out!

Virtual taekwondo sounds like a gimmick until it solves the biggest fear of combat sports
The noncontact VR discipline is gaining momentum in Southeast Asia by keeping the athletic grind while reducing the injury risk that scares many people away.
Electronics, Screen, Person

Virtual taekwondo sounds ridiculous in the easiest way. Put on a headset, strap sensors to your body, kick at empty air, and call it a combat sport. Somewhere, Wii Sports is quietly stretching.

Athletes are still kicking, reacting, and gasping through the work. The difference is that the hits land on avatars instead of bodies.

This VR empathy game could be the start of something much creepier
Rekindle uses face-tracking biometrics to deepen player involvement, but the same idea could eventually shape therapy tools, safety systems, and emotionally responsive interfaces.
VR Headset, Accessories, Goggles

A new VR empathy game called Rekindle turns facial expressions into part of the controls. The game asks players to perform emotions, then watches their faces to see whether those reactions match the scene.

The first-person story centers on memory, identity, and empathy for the LGBTQ+ community. Players move through a dystopian future where sexual identity has been targeted and erased, collecting memory fragments tied to the protagonist’s experience.

PlayStation’s reported move away from physical discs already looked bad for players who still care about owning games. Now it sounds messy for the companies expected to sell, support, and build around Sony’s ecosystem.
