    The phone would not stay in place. There's no strap on the headset so to use it you have to constantly hold it. I do not recommend this product.

    The goggles are good but the software is garbage. The goggles are useful for google playstore apps. Pass on the viewmaster apps.

    I like these AR glasses. They take time to adjust and you have to follow instructions to make sure the device works properly.

    Bought it for my 10year old daughter and she has a LG G-4 phone. The product only show's a rocket and stars unless you download and purchase apps from the google play store. We thought it would be more like Samsung's Oclus. This product needs lots of work to improve it.

    Not worth the money and not worth the time spent trying to make it work. After I did get it to work, it was a disappointment. Maybe with the purchased discs it would be better, but I wouldn't risk it. I just returned it to the store.

    Fun VR intro, disguised as a blast from the past

    Posted .

    This is a fun, good-quality viewer for VR apps like Google Cardboard, especially considering the viewers made from actual cardboard cost about as much. My iPhone 6 fit great and worked immediately; similar-sized Android phones should work with no issues, and there is an included adapter for smaller phones like the iPhone 5 series. Based on the included demo reel, I don't think the actual View-Master experience packs are worth the asking price, but I've enjoyed tinkering with Cardboard and the NY Times VR apps so far. As an added bonus, if you had a View-Master growing up, this feels like a shiny new version of an old friend.

    Great experience for the beginning of VR

    I watched and read several reviews of this product. At less than $30, I just had to try it. I'm using an LG3 and I love it. Some apps are better than others, but this is worth the price. The only gripe I have is that it doesn't have a head strap. Even if for just $10 more, I'd buy it with a strap. In using this, I found myself standing in an open area and turning in circles as I looked around. Most of the content on the google store is free, but google had a plethora of apps where you can create content. I think this is the future. Being able to take panoramic pictures and save them in your profile and then letting guest view them via this device with your phone or theirs. The best part is casting your phone to a TV and letting others view what you're seeing as you experience it. A must try at a great price.
