The XR Week Peek (2025.01.15): Many XR devices were at CES, Quest 3S is the most sold console of 2024, and more!

I’m back in Italy after my very positive experience at CES! I still can’t believe that I’ve been to this huge event… I came back home that everything in my body was hurting, but I was happy nonetheless. It’s been great going there from all points of view: as a blogger, enthusiast, and entrepreneur… all […]
