    It's amazing being able to be in VR with no cables or strings attached. Obviously VR from a cell phone has its limits but it still is very fun to play around with. We have started to use it less and less so I do think the novelty does wear off after a while but I think if they can really figure out how to maximize "wear-ability" and screen resolution, people will want to live in VR more than real life.
