This is a good entry level VR rig. The controller works well. Small light leaks around the face mask but not too distracting. Lots of software available on the Play Store

I enjoy it especially for the price. It's fun and the Google layout is simple and intuitive. Including the remote is a must and makes a huge difference in emerson to the content.

Overall it's a great VR headset. My biggest complaint is the field of view is a little too narrow. Most VR headsets these days are like this, so not much we can do.

Having never tried the Daydream headset before I took the leap and made the purchase! HOLY COW! This thing is awesome! I setup access to my movie and tv show collection! I literally feel like I am in a movie theater, New York Apartment, Space, or Drive in Theater while sitting in my bed watching movies. It is incredible this is done with a phone! I Highly recommend!

The Daydreamer Viewer came with my Google Pixel 2 XL purchase as a bonus. As a novice to using a SmartPhone (I am a first time owner) it was very easy to set up. The first experience (and each one since then) was totally awesome!!!! Just another terrific benefit to owning a SmartPhone. I continue to download new apps and having great new VR experiences!

VR is hard to describe in words. If you have a compatible phone, get this and try it out. Not for everyone -- but does some really cool stuff.

The unit is well made and fairly comfortable, but the controls really limit what can be done with these phone headsets.

Best VR Headset Thus Far, Comfort and Image-wise

I have tried quite a few phone and console based VR headsets and thus far the Daydream VR has exceeded my expectations. Not only has Google created the most comfortable VR headset to date, but the optics are spot on when combined with my Google Pixel 2 XL. I look forward to newer iterations of this product as it can only get better from here.

I bought this to help expand my VR capabilities. This isn't as great as other VR systems but, it works for products other than Google. I thinking is a good starter to ease into the VR world.

I am using this VR with Samsung Galaxy S8 Active. The headset is very comfortable, and works great with my phone. The phone does not get hot, and the battery can last forever. THe VR image quaity is great. The lack of optical distance adjustment on the set has not been an issue for me and I do use glasses for reading. Very satisfied.

By far this is one of the better VR headsets you can but if you have a Google pixel 2. It bought mine on a whim since I heard bad reviews if you had a pixel 2 and not a pixel 2 XL, but to my surprise in really is fantastic and fun for the kids, reminds me of the Nintendo Wii...don't be fooled by this product, totally worth it...

For the price, this is an amazing experience. Although I am sad that Google is no longer supporting Daydream, the possibility of what VR can bring to the world got me exciting and this was definitely a huge stepping stone towards that possibility.

This is a good virtual reality device for a Google pixel. Unfortunately there is no way to adjust the focus.
