Meta Quest 3S with 256GB of storage is $50 off right now

The Meta Quest 3S VR headset is a great alternative to the Meta Quest 3. The base 128GB version of the Quest 3S starts at $299.99 at Amazon, which is $200 less than the Quest 3 yet delivers essentially the same mixed reality experience. And now, you can step up to the 256GB version of the Quest 3S for just $349 ($50 off) from Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy.

Now through the end of April, your purchase includes a copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow (one of the best VR games yet, if I say so myself) and three months of Meta Quest Plus. The service is normally $7.99 a month or $59.99 a year, and grants instant access to more than two dozen free games with new additions every month, plus exclusive discounts.

Since the Quest 3S has the same Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor and Touch controllers as the base Quest 3, you’ll have access to all of the same games and mixed reality features. But the displays are not as sharp: the Quest 3S has a lower per-eye resolution of 1832 x 1920 (compared to 2064 x 2208) with a narrower field of view. It also doesn’t have a dedicated depth sensor to go along with its pair of triangular camera arrays, and it’s a bit heavier than the Quest 3. That said, you do get some exclusive perks like a slightly longer 2.5-hour battery life and a dedicated button to switch between immersive and passthrough modes.

If your 2025 goals include a digital detox during fabulous vacationing, the HMD Barbie can help you maintain societal connections without excessive distractions. Amazon is selling the pink flip phone for a record low $79.99 ($50 off). You can activate it on most American carriers with 4G LTE; its nostalgically basic features — which include calling, texting on a T9 keypad, and browsing a less flashy web — won’t require heavy mobile plans. If nothing else, it can be a fun conversation starter and a symbol of gratitude for the technological advancements we often take for granted. Read our hands-on impressions. The Ugreen Uno Magnetic Wireless Power Bank (10000mAh, 15W) is down to $44.99 ($25 off) at Amazon, which is its lowest price to date. The charger conveniently snaps to the back of your MagSafe iPhone, along with any other Qi2 Ready smartphones we might see in 2025. That means it supplies the fastest charge you can get without using a cable, though you can get a 20W charge using its two-way USB-C port. It has a sturdy metal kickstand to keep the phone propped up, and the integrated display uses cutesy robotic faces to show an approximation of the battery’s remaining power. You can get the newest Amazon Fire 7 tablet with 32GB of storage and lock-screen ads for $44.99 ($35 off) at Amazon, which is an all-time low price. You can also get it without ads for $59.99 ($35 off), or pay afterward to remove them. The affordable Fire 7 is great for light browsing and apps or for enjoying digital content such as movies, music, and books. You can even use your voice and ask Alexa to place a video call. It may not be as smooth or fun as an iPad, but at that price, the durable 7-inch tablet is easily replaceable and has features the iPad can’t claim, like a 3.5mm headphone jack and expandable storage with microSD cards up to 1TB.
