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.

    I rly like this cardboard unit. The price was good & the unit is solid. But for more intense VR u need the higher end headsets

    It is really great! Simple, yet enjoyable. The only downside is that you will more than likely have to take your phone out of your phone case.

    For the price the vr viewer works great. It does not come with a strap so if you want to keep your hands free I suggest something different.

    Before spending big bucks I was curious about VR and for the price what the heck. You don't need a specific brand of smart phone and the experience was awesome. If you are looking for comfort have at it and spend the bucks but for general use to get introduced into the world of VR you will not be disappointed.

    I was able to buy my VR viewer for under $5. It works great and is easy to use. I only wish it had straps or a way to add straps.

    I wasn't expecting much considering the price, but I am really impressed. The product is sturdy and my phone didn't fall out, nor overheat. I have watched several movies using both an iPhone and an android. Everything worked flawlessly. I really didn't expect the button to work well, but it does. Great little VR set.

    Good first VR headset and very cheap. Resolution isn't that great when using an iPhone 6 but it's great for getting a cheap VR experience.

    The Viewer is good, it holds my phone with no issues. There is a magnetic button to play games with. I would recommend it to others.

    With no extra bells and whistles, this low cost cardboard viewer is a great way to check out the world of VR. It's extremely easy to set up and there are a ton of VR videos on YouTube. If you are interested in checking out this new video technology but don't want to invest real money, buy these. You won't be disappointed.

    For less than $10 you can't do much more for a VR headset. Works well with compatible phones and does what its set out to do.

    Excellent price for these beginner virtual reality viewers (got it as the Deal of the Day). A strap would be helpful.

    I found it on deal for $2.99. really fun to use. I didn't want to shell out $50-$100 on a gimmicky VR just to try it so this was a great way to see do I like it and is it worth shelling out more for a nicer more sophisticated VR headset. This obviously works with smartphones and is not a stand alone VR.

    My son wanted to try virtual reality, and it was an inexpensive way to try it. One negative is that did not come with a strap.

    My kids asked for an expensive virtual reality system for Christmas as a joke because we live paycheck - to paycheck. I found these on sale at Best Buy for less than $15 each and couldn’t resist them as a gag gift in their stockings. They actually LOVE them!!! Hours of fun for them (18 and 21) as well as daughters boyfriend and their cousin. At first I thought it was fun “ironically” but no! They love them! Great product. Just wish it fit bigger phones.

    I bought this as a cheaper way to see how my Note7 would work with the Samsung Gear VR. The rollercoaster app I downloaded was basic but it was good enough for my experiment. I did get the same queasy feeling that I feel when I ride a real coaster. The main drawback of this unit is you have to make your own head strap or hold onto while using it. I'm recommending it but only for the reasons I purchased it.

    I bought it just as the most basic VR “device” for my phone. It works. It’s not flashy. But hey, it’s cheap and works.
