    Not terribly impressed, it might be a setup issue but if I turn my head too fast it resets my forward direction and I have found very few apps that let you try before you buy and I don't want to buy something and hate it so if I can't try it first I usually just skip it.

    The Vr itself isn't terrible. You can use over eyeglasses which is a plus, but I thought I would be able to use my phone's own apps, not an app called Oculus. (I must have not seen that in reviews.) The Vr is fun to play games and watch videos, but for me, not much else.
