Why you should buy the Apple Watch SE 2

The idea behind the “SE” moniker is to provide Apple Watch users with a budget-friendly version of the popular Watch lineup, without skimping on performance and the most important functions. The Watch SE 2  is equipped with Apple’s S8 processor and can be upgraded to the latest version of watchOS 10 out of the box. Designed for up to 18 hours of battery life, you won’t have to worry about recharging the Watch SE 2 throughout the day — just as long as you topped it off the night before.

While a missing always-on screen is a bit of a loss for this model, this is easily forgiven when you consider how bright and colorful the watch face is when you’re actively using it. Plus, no always-on means less strain on the battery. It’s also a pretty great fitness and motion tracker, with capabilities including heart rate tracking, sleep tracking, fall detection, and even Apple’s new Car Crash detection.

The Watch SE 2 is very comfortable too. Our Apple Watch 2 reviewer had zero issue slapping it on his wrists and wearing for extended periods of time. When it comes to smartwatches, this might be the most important consideration you have to make. After all, no one wants to wear an itchy device all day long!

We see a lot of smartwatch deals in our daily digging, but this Walmart promo is truly something special. Right now, you can the Apple Watch SE 2 for only $190 while this discount is in effect. We also have a huge list of other Apple Watch deals we think you’d like 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.

Carely’s new wearable watches over aging parents so you don’t have to
Because "just checking in" shouldn't be your only safety net.
Carely feature image

Checking in on aging parents usually means playing a proactive game. Are they okay? Did they sleep well? Would you even know if something was wrong before it became serious? You have to be constantly vigilant and check in with your elders. Carely wants to remove that guesswork entirely, and it does so without a screen, an app your parents need to open, or a single daily check-in call.
