The thinnest laptops you can buy
Fitbit Versa Lite Review

The thinnest laptops of today are paper-thin compared to their predecessors, and though they aren't literally that trim, they're getting pretty close.

It's a no-compromise situation — and we love it.

One of the thinnest laptops around is the Apple MacBook Air M2 at just 0.44 inches thick. It's incredibly thin but provides awesome performance and battery life thanks to Apple's excellent M2 CPUs.

HTC just fixed a major shortcoming of standalone VR headsets
Tech of the Week HTC Vive Tracker

HTC Vive recently announced a new virtual reality tracker specifically designed for standalone VR headsets like the Vive XR Elite and Vive Focus 3. The VR division of this tech giant also makes base stations and motion-tracking hardware that's required for most PC VR headsets.

In VR, your head motion is detected by sensors in the headset while your hand position is captured by the controllers. What's missing is body tracking. That means the game or app has no way of knowing for certain where your feet and hips are. That's why trackers are needed.
