Its your last chance to grab these 3 Cyber Monday VR deals — save on Meta Quest, Xreal, and Galaxy XR
Virtual reality is a kind of tech that feels almost feels too futuristic, as if it should only be found in an expensive lab or a sci-fi movie. That said, if these Cyber Monday VR headset deals are anything to go by, VR tech is very much for the mainstream consumer these days.In the final hours of Cyber Monday on Dec. 1, we've gathered three of the best VR/AR deals you can still shop on sale. You'll find deals on everything from helmet-style headsets with 8K video playback to more low-key AR glasses aimed at boosting productivity. SEE ALSO: Cyber Monday 2025: Last-chance deals and updates from Amazon, Apple, Best Buy, Walmart, and more Whether you're interested in VR for work or for play, here are the best Cyber Monday VR deals to grab before the sales officially end later tonight.Meta Quest 3s bundle The Meta Quest 3s is one of the most affordable options for anyone who wants to get into virtual reality gaming. Mashable's reviewer wrote that she appreciated "its solid mixed-reality capabilities and access to Meta’s expansive content library," going on to say, "the budget-friendly price point makes it an attractive option, especially for newcomers or casual users looking to dip their toes into VR without splurging."This bundle deal, which comes with two Meta Quest 3s systems, Batman: Arkham Shadow, and a three-month trial of Meta Horizon+ certainly emphasizes the budget-friendliness of this headset. It also makes for an excellent Christmas gift option. If you're only interested in one headset, you can also grab that along with the Batman game for just $249.Check out Mashable's full review on the Meta Quest 3s.

He used the AR glasses to upgrade his work setup when it's limited on screen space, and appreciated that he still felt aware of the world, while getting the benefits of adding Slack messages to the side of his laptop display. While he ultimately prefers the Apple Vision Pro experience, he did say the Xreal glasses are a "much better entry point to AR for most people."

That doesn't mean it's worse all-around: Binder wrote that the Galaxy XR has better displays and is lighter overall.Mashable contributor Adam Doud wrote that this headset is one of the most comfortable he's tried, and though he doesn't quite see the real utility of the headset just yet, but he was impressed by the screen resolution and spatializing (essentially 3D-ifying) features found on the photos and YouTube app. This Explorer's Pack doesn't markdown the $1,799 headset itself, but does throw in a few subscriptions for a Cyber Monday promo, including: one year of Google AI Pro, one year of YouTube Premium, NBA League Pass, and one year of Project Pulsar from Adobe, all of which amount to a $1,140 value.

I also have a pretty deep knowledge of the coolest new gadgets of 2025, from the latest virtual reality tech to under-the-radar brands and new Apple laptops. I've also been covering Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales since 2019, so I know what discounts to expect and which Cyber Monday deals you can safely skip. As of Monday, Dec. 1, retailers are finally wrapping up their Cyber Monday sales. Walmart, Best Buy, Target, and Amazon's Cyber Monday sales all end tonight. In this guide, you'll find all the best Cyber Monday tech deals I'd actually recommend to friends and family. Before recommending a Samsung OLED TV, a popular new PS5 game, or award-winning Bose earbuds, I'll first make sure that the price is actually a good deal. Online retailers are notorious for exaggerating their sales, but I've done the work for you to find the biggest genuine discounts at Amazon, Best Buy, Target, Walmart, and beyond.Remember, this could be your last chance to save on the season's best new gadgets, toys, wearables, and tech gifts. I've personally tested many of the products in this guide, while others have been tested by other Mashable reporters.

AirPods Pro 2 are officially cheaper than they were on Black Friday — if you know where to look
Save 46%: The Apple AirPods Pro 2 are just $134.99 at Woot, saving you $114.01 off their $249 price tag. This beats their Black Friday pricing by $4.01, but you'll want to act quick — this deal is live only through Dec. 1. Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple AirPods Pro 2 $134 at Woot $249 Save $115 Get Deal Cyber Monday can be hit or miss when it comes to finding better deals. The best prices for the AirPods Pro 2 came on Black Friday, when Walmart had them on sale for $139.99. So, when Walmart raised prices over the weekend, we thought that was the end of it. But thankfully, Woot swept in with a last-minute Cyber Monday deal on Dec. 1.Through the rest of the day, you can grab the Apple AirPods Pro 2 for $134.99 at Woot, dropping the price $4 below its Black Friday record price, and slashing a total of $114.01 off its $249 price tag. At the time of writing, the next best price on these earbuds can be found at Walmart for $199. SEE ALSO: 22 Cyber Monday deals better than Black Friday: Samsung's The Frame and the M4 MacBook Air Though they don't have the same capabilities as the heart-rate monitoring AirPods Pro 3, they still sit $85 below the newer earbuds' sale price. In addition to having ANC that still holds up in 2025, they can also power the live translation feature that was introduced with the Pro 3 earbuds. The AirPods Pro 2 also come with six hours of battery life per charge, have excellent and balanced sound, great adaptive audio and transparency modes, and three silicone ear tips for finding the right size. At $135, they're a steal, but you'll want to add them to your cart sooner rather than later — Woot only has this deal through Dec. 1, or until their stock of the earbuds sells out.
