This thing is really cool, but may trigger some motion sensitivities. It's a bargain for what it is so give it a shot

I was pleasantly surprised at how cool this thing is. I got mine free with the purchase of a phone but would gladly have paid full price for after having used it. There is a lot of free content out there and as phone screens get better the image quality will get better. Pair it with a good set of headphones and you truly can forget where you truly are!

Good headset for Samsung phone(S)

The headset has been out awhile. They have worked the bugs from the app, there are many other apps you can use and lots of content. It only "fits" specific Samsung phone models. Other models and makes might fit, but it is really a closed system. There is no way to provide external power or remote signal to use the headset (goggles) for other purposes.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
