    I had gotten myself a GearVR and my daughter became amazed with it. I saw this sitting on the shelf at check out at BB and decided to get my daughter a cheaper version of my VR. It works great, just no focal adjustment or head straps. It does allow for cardboard "clicks" though.

    We bought it to use as a viewer for Google Cardboard apps - it works very good for this.

    Purchased after cardboard version fell apart. Wish I had seen this one first. Feels much more secure than cardboard version with the rubber band, which is important when you're putting your cell phone in it. The viewmaster look is very nostalgic. The kids like playing with it and it will certainly last longer than the cardboard.

    I mainly bought this to use with Google Cardboard. This has much better build quality than other Google Cardboard viewers, not made of cardboard, and a similar price.

    Kind of neat to playing with the original slide View Master as a kid and even better to use it with my phone as an adult! Works great with Google Cardboard and Maps. The only downside is that it doesn't accommodate people with glasses very well.

    Even though you can't compare this to The Samsung one, it's pretty good. No strap for your head and you have to buy other items to get the full use of it, Its still affordable. Other VR Apps will work with this very well

    I liked this product a lot. It was very cheap and a very hard item to find. The only thing is that I wish it would have had a strap to wear around my head since my arm gets tired from holding it.

    it's ok for the price. needs a head band or something, holding the view master to your head while playing a game becomes annoying. some phones may fit snuggly. (Samsung Galaxy Note 4 fits snug).

    These can be found for under $20 at your local store! Great for watching all 3D and 360• content. Only one thing would warrant it a 5* rating, that being an adjustable head strap.

    The set up took longer than anticipated. If you get one I recommend just looking it up on YouTube on how to set it up. Other than that it’s pretty cool.

    I wanted an inexpensive gift for my kids so I purchased this fun toy. The one drawback is that I don't have a very good battery in my phone so time of use is limited.

    Worked well with my LG G3 however there is no strap, so have to hold it in place with one hand. The button on the side works well too.
