The VW ID Buzz is an all-electric [reimagining]( of the German marque's 50s classic Type 2 vehicle, built for a new generation. Why does it matter? You may remember the Camper, as it was colloquially known in the UK, or Bus, as in the US, or Bulli, for those on the European continent. That's what the ID Buzz harks back to, in all-new electrified form. What's my take? This looks fab, plus it's electric. Now if the German car maker can replicate the success of the iconic Camper van for a future generation it will be on to a winner. What this also shows is that we're now finally starting to see a lot more choice in the EV market and that will only lead to more people being able to get in on the action. The only catch is that we don't know how much it's going to cost. It will be appearing in Europe later in 2022, but won't be in the US until 2024. - [The VW ID Buzz in pictures]( You'll soon be able to track your Oculus fitness stats in Apple Health and more Meta What's happened? Meta has announced that you'll soon be able to track your fitness activity from your Meta Quest 2 headset more easily via your phone. Why does it matter? That data is available via the Oculus Move tracker but that's inside the headset and not readily available elsewhere. That's about to change as next month you'll be able to access that data in more ways including via Apple Health. What's my take? Exercise doesn't count if you can't record it, right?

The Panasonic SC-HTB490 soundbar-and-subwoofer combo pairs simplicity and affordability in an effort to easily boost the sonic attributes of your TV. Our quick verdict This 2.1-channel soundbar combines simplicity and affordability in an effort to easily boost the sonic attributes of your TV without breaking the bank. It's a fairly basic offering that only has a single HDMI-ARC connection, and lacks Wi-Fi, but at this price point you can't expect miracles. Good for the budget.
