4.0 out of 5 starsGood quality for price
Reviewed in Canada on July 22, 2020
The headset came well-presented with a microfibre cloth and remote control, which will require two AAA batteries (not supplied). The lenses and body of the headset are both good quality for the price and the head straps are adequate for their purpose.

The lenses cover about 80% of the available field of view, so details in the extremities are difficult and sometimes impossible to see. This is a major consideration if, like me, the intended use is for the FPV control of a drone, either air or underwater, where the OSD is placed in the extremities. My particular issue is farsightedness which, although not severe, is outside the range of adjustment provided by this headset.

I will be returning this headset under Amazon's excellent 'Return Policy' as I cannot use them because of the inability to adjust them to my eyesight. Also the inability to see the edges of the field of view render them less than stellar if their intended use is FPV. I have awarded this product four stars as I think they represent good value for money, however, if you are farsighted or intend to use them as an FPV device, you might want to think again.

1.0 out of 5 starsNot At All What I Wanted from a VR Headset
Reviewed in Canada on September 6, 2020
This VR headset did not meet my expectations. It was a challenge to work with. I could barely watch anything on it. Of course you use your smartphone for this headset, and placing the phone in the bracket at the front of the headset, and removing it afterwards was rather difficult, imo.

Furthermore, I could not see anything reasonably well. Picture quality was not what should be expected from a half-decent quality VR headset. The image was like watching old 460p at times, and also a little blurry because of focusing distance from the phone, through the lenses to your eyes.

And personally for me, this may help others too who wear prescription lenses at times: I could hardly ever get good 3D imagery, because the focal distance didn't suit my vision with my glasses.

This was a disappointing purchase from me, and the end result was I returned the headset.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good upgrade to cardboard and great value for the price.
Reviewed in Canada on September 30, 2021
Verified Purchase
I don't know what people expect from a headset at that price point, but for $50, I'm entirely satisfied. It's great upgrade from google cardboard, it works with the larger more recent phones (using it with an A31). Build quality is average (focus adjustment, in particular, is very easy to nudge, I glued mine fix) but the lenses are ok, the straps are great, the padding is good, and I've had no problems with the nose chafing that others reported. The small remote was a great surprise and actually works (it looked like the kind of thing I would throw away). It's cheap plastic, but it was easy to connect and is actually quite useful to scrub videos and re-center the view. Obviously, don't expect the experience from a $1000 VR kit, but honestly, this is good value for the money.

3.0 out of 5 stars Headset is good but controller not so much
Reviewed in Canada on February 25, 2022
Verified Purchase
The headset is actually quite good, comfortable and easy enough to adjust and viewing VR content from my phone was excellent for what its worth. There is padding on the clip and mount area to keep your phone safe and inserting the phone was easy enough. Nice to be able to adjust the volume using the phone switches too since its an open frame but at anytime you need to physically access the phone its actually a bit more annoying then just opening a cover and closing it as this design requires you to slide your phone out and insert it again. On a good note, I didn't notice any external light bleeding from this design and the cushioning was adequate and comfortable and the strap comfortable and sturdy.

On the downside, the included controller didn't seem to work with anything i tried. 2 of the buttons that did work consistently were only for increasing or decreasing volume which is a big downer for this product bundle. On this note I did find that both my xbox controller and generic android xbox style clone worked better for most VR content which is really fine for gaming or managing media content.

Ultimately I ended up returning it as paying for a controller that doesn't work doesn't seem sensible. However would probably still buy or can recommend the headset if your purchasing it one its own.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not worth it
Reviewed in Canada on September 15, 2020
Verified Purchase
Sorry that I had to return this VR, but it really was a bad experience. I was using Pixel 3a XL and the image quality was horrible. The remote button would get stuck and not come out, and make weird clicky noises. The headset was also not comfortable wearing. It would keep falling forward with the weight of the phone. At first I thought it was just me not knowing how to do it. But then I spent a couple of days learning it and still it didnt get any better. I tried many different video formats, apps, resolution, changing the focus and adjustment. Nothing worked.

I'd give it 2 stars because it is cool but very uncomfortable.

4.0 out of 5 stars Work perfectly when lying down in bed
Reviewed in Canada on December 25, 2020
Verified Purchase
I bought this for the sole purpose of watching video content while lying on my back and it work exactly as I wanted and even a little better than expected.

Pro :
-There no light bleed, I watched videos in a lit room and no light would come up the nose area unlike my Oculus Rift
-Im slightly near sighted and was able to adjust the headset and get perfect vision in the center of the image

Con :
-There is no foam in the nose area, it HURT
-Couldnt get the remote to work while in the video app, thankfully there was a hand free mode
-The headstrap can come off very easily, I wouldnt trust it if im using the headset normally for 360° VR content

All in all, im glad I bought this. While the product is flawed if you're using it as a VR headset to watch VR content, it really good if you just want to watch movies in bed.

5.0 out of 5 stars very nice
Reviewed in Canada on July 5, 2020

The design of this VR headset looks quite modern and the rubber padding around the eyes feel comfortable, 。 they even compare with Google Cardboard as these are the first set I have tried. I couldn't see spending a lot of money. This was a great compromise. I might even use this.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not usefull at all.
Reviewed in Canada on February 5, 2021

Just got them in and was excited to set them up. Tried YouTube VR and can't see a damn thing as it is out of focus and no adjustment to the tabs that move the phone in and out helps.
I even tried pulling the glasses forward a bit to see if and when anything would be in focus. Nope.
Will start the Return process...bummer.
