    Just a few days after Lenovo unveiled its Windows 10 VR headset, Microsoft showed off at a CES media event what HP, Dell and Acer are working on. Unfortunately, they were all under glass, so all we could do was ogle at the hardware. Still, the designs look interesting. Acer's looks like it comes straight from the company's gaming team, while HP's has a cool black aesthetic. I was particularly surprised by Dell's headset, which resembles the PlayStation VR in a few ways.

    Google is leading the mobile VR race with its Daydream platform and headset, but Microsoft is getting ready to join in too. Alcatel has made a $470 Windows 10-powered version of its Idol 4S phone, and it's the first mobile device running this OS to have virtual-reality capabilities. Like its Android brother, the new Idol also comes with its own headset. I played around with it to see if this first stab at VR on Windows 10 Mobile is any good. Unfortunately, it isn't.
