Google Daydream View VR Headset 2nd Generation for Pixel 2, 2XL 3, 3XL (Charcoal Gray)

This headset is unreal. I have a galaxy note nine and it still works in the headset with no issues. The picture quality is very good and it's the most comfortable vr headset for a phone I have ever used. Dont wear it too tight ot it will hurt the back of your head a bit. It can do things I didnt know phone vr headsets could do and there is COM QUALITY apps you can get right from the google daydream app, including games on the oculus go like virtual virtual reality and if you get this you have to get that game. It's a must have for the price point. I was skeptical because I had a headset before this and it was okay, the controller the last headset I had didnt work with most games. With the daydream that's not a problem at all. I'm overjoyed with this purchase.

Google really had a good thing going and completely wrecked it

Alas, Daydream is going away. I got one so that I could use it to test WebVR while I still had the chance, but unfortunately it tends to have annoying calibration issues. Also, a phone screen can still have very distracting smudges under the Daydream lenses, even if it's fairly clean by day-to-day use standards.

This is much better quality than other VR headsets I have tried. It is also the only one I could find that actually worked with my Pixel XL 3. Most other headsets I could find were only able to be used with a screen size up to 6". It is comfortable and easy to adjust. I only wish that there was a cover for the lenses on the inside of the headset (where you would look through them) so that they don't pickup dust and scratches.

Google Daydream. CAN'T use it outside of Google's Daydream VR app. The free "games" and "immersive" content is such low quality (not to mention that there's only a handful of apps), the recalibration is constantly off, the sides peek through (I have a Pixel 2 XL. Cant imagine it on an iPhone or something smaller), even if you bite on the paid "games" they're like $8.99 and the "demos" don't make it a confident purchase. It was cool for an hour, then I burnt through all of its content. Could've done this with cardboard. Oh, the fit is very uncomfortable too. The nose hole gapes light, so I had to temporarily pad it with foam. Very uncomfortable with glasses. Videos are always constantly losing focus because the center of the lens have to be right at your eye-level, but the headset isn't very stable. I've worn it tight, loose, and padded; viewing experience was still awful.

Even with phones certified for daydream, it no longer let you downloads apps for VR. Pairing the controller is not easy, I had to do it at least a dozen times before it was recognized and updated the firmware, but even then it only works with the now-defunct daydream apps. In the end, daydream only works for the initial screen (the "river flowing"). I ended up using this headset with a bluetooth game controller and DeoVR player to see stereo VR180 and VR360 videos, up to 6K resolution. I like it for that purpose since is extremely light compared to a Samsung GearVR (also not working anymore with oculus) or a generic visor like those from desktek. The materials in the google headset are way better than those options, and I can wear them for 2 hours with no discomfort and I love that there is no fogging, which is a major issue with other VR headsets. The viewing angle is somewhat limited and from certain angles you will see the concentric circles of the fresnell lens.

It works well with our Google Pixel 2xl phones. We tried another headset that required placement of the phone in a tray. This headset makes it easy by allowing you to simply place your phone into the headset and strap it down. It also has a remote that allows for easy app navigation which is something other headsets do not include. The headset is also very comfortable to wear, and it is easy to adjust for all ages.

Looks great but they forgot the remote which makes it unusable. Tried contacting the seller to just send a remote but would only allow me to do a full return. Guess I'll be going to an alternative product :/
