Customers are saying

Customers express satisfaction with the Virtual Reality Viewer 2-Pack for its affordability, compatibility with various phone sizes, and overall functionality. Many customers find it to be a great value for the price, with some even calling it a "steal." The cardboard material used in its construction is also praised for its effectiveness despite its simplicity. However, some customers have concerns about its comfort, particularly the lack of a head strap and potential discomfort on the nose during use.

    Bought on a whim because it was 50% off. Didn't work on my blue vivo xl...not compatible with app. Gave it to my sister as she has a Samsung edge. Worked well on her phone. Does what its supposed to. As mentioned, good begginers model...

    If you want to have a Google Cardboard compliant viewer, spend as little as possible, and grab one from a Best Buy store on the way home, this thing works. It doesn't have any sort of strap so anything needing your hands on a controller suffers but for a bare bones entry it works as advertised.

    It basically functions the same as any VR device out there, so if you want to give virtual reality a try before you commit to being absorbed into a world of 3d imagination, then I recommend you get this to use with your phone. PS also great for YouTube Videos that support this function

    This worked great. Got it really cheap. It gets the job done and was a lot of fun for the kids. It ain't an occulus so temper your expectations.

    The Viewer is not impressive in appearance, but I wanted to experience some Virtual Reality while viewing online VR videos. Although the viewer is very inexpensive, with a little DIY assembly required, it works just fine and better than I expected.

    It is a nice item for a cardboard item. Takes a little fiddling to get my Galaxy to fit but it does fit. Overall it works for what I purchased it for, to see what all the hype about virtual reality is all about. Look good and will probably get better in the future.

    I saw the Google Cardboard Virtual Reality viewer while shopping for another product and at $10, the price was right for an entry level virtual reality viewer. In anticipation of someday purchasing one of the Samsung viewers, I thought I'd see what all the hype was about.

    We may not be using most of the time but then gives a good experience. It doesn’t come with a head strap so we need to hold it.

    For the price of $10, I find very little wrong with this item. The only thing that could be better is for it to include some way to secure it to your head, so you don't have to hold it all the time. Other than that, it's a very good product.

    This a decent budget VR headset for those looking to try out the VR experience without paying for much. That being said, its not meant for long term viewing as holding the headset the whole time can be taxing on your arms.

    Paper unit is the cheapest way to experience virtual 3 d and it dies the work. But if you are going to spend more the 30 min you might opt out for ones with rubber band so you don’t have to hold them. Beside that they are awesome

    These were great and my glasses fit fine underneath the cardboard frame. Don’t be turned away because of the cardboard frame, it serves it’s purpose and makes the price very reasonable. I like the fact that it came in a two pack.

    The heavy lifting is done by your phone so as long as you download a VR Google ap you'll be all set with these glasses. Bonus points for looking like a dorky aunt buying cardboard but impressing my 13 year old nephew with the results!

    Basic VR

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    If you want to dip your toes in the "cool" waters of consumer virtual reality, this is a great way to do it. It's compatible with Google Cardboard as well as other VR apps, so you can get a feel for VR before investing in a better headset or PC setup. You don't need a specific brand of smart phone, but your phone does require a magnetometer and gyroscope. So, it won't work with every phone. The only real drawback to this simple unit is the lack of headstrap. Your arms will get tired from holding it Viewmaster style.

    These inexpensive little cardboard VR lenses do the job. They are recommended for someone that doesn’t want or cannot spend several hundred dollars on an expensive oculus VR set. They hold my Apple 6S plus phone fine!

    Bought this VR viewer when it was on sale just for the heck of it and I am happy with it. It's basic vr viewer but it's a great intro to vr if you are interested in owning that experience. I recommend it.

    Comes nearly ready to use, just a few flips of flaps needed. I only wish it came with a few recommendations for sites to find images that work best with the viewer. It's been trial and error otherwise.

    Great way to see VR at Affordable Price Despite its inferior quality, its definitely worth the investment to try out the technology before committing to the higher price of full-fledged head gear.
