    Nothing exciting, you still have to turn your head around to access a lot of the scenes

    It’s amusing but I don’t think we’re there yet technologically. The headset is clunky, awkward and makes the face and eyes hot. Perhaps I didn’t follow the instructions, but it took almost two days before I could even get it working with my iPhone. I think the technology and graphics will be ready within a few more years. It may be ready now, but not in my experience with Oculus GO.

    Wonderful beginner headset for basic VR viewing options. I would not recommend this for intense gamers.

    It was weird. It takes a long time to make operational, and it makes your vision blurry when you turn it off.

    The Oculus Go was fun at first. Then the limitation of storage (the 32GB is not upgradable), short battery life, and the dearth of media become troublesome. If this came with a longer charging cable (to power the device when using) and a micro SD slot and you could find decent VR media, the Go would be a lot better.

    This is a good alternative to a higher priced VR headset. I can't see that it is any better than the Google cardboard I bought 4 years ago for $15. This is a good way to see if you like VR but is mostly a waste of money. The resolution of the screen takes me back to the 80's right after they came out with color monitors. Its is interesting for a couple of hours then the new wears off and you see that it isn't worth it. The best thing to do is buy a used one or better yet find someone that has one you can try and get it out of your system before you lose any money.

    Some screen glare and nose slot gap causes lower rating otherwise does the job.
