Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a great VR Headset on the Cheap way better than the Google Cardboard and Cheaper than the Samsung VR, what i think makes this product stand is the well tough layout (triple Head Band, Perforated Leatherette, Adjustable Spacing for the Eyes, Opening for the Camera, Opening for Headphone and Charger, and sufficient space for big phones). This works using the Google Cardboard Apps, some do rival the Oculus and HTC Vive (except when interacting that is where this falls short) this also depending on your phone, that is a big consideration, Using a Note 4 the screen is clear and the Performance is Acceptable The Achilles heel of this is the controller, it looks ok, but it leaves a lot to be desired, first the mode that it boots in doesn't work for VR apps, it has to be changed to the Pointer mode first and the Pointer is always visible (even if you put it to the corner it can still be seen), other than the controller this is great (use a Moga Controller instead and save 5 bucks)

Works as should, though you can see part of the inside and can't adjust where the eye locations are. However, you can move the phone around very well. I spent 20m trying to put a battery into the remote, because the spring was poorly positioned.

Took me a while to figure out how it worked, but once I got it going, man, it was a trip.

Absolutely LOVE it! My kids all love it too!!!!!!!

I bought it for $3, thats what it’s worth, Cheaply constructed. The components were falling apart right from the box. Would be a toy for a kid to ply with.

I always wanted to try the VR headset, but never wanted to drop a huge amount of money on them - 40, 50 bucks - certainly not hundreds of dollars. Seeing this was on clearance for on $2.99 last week, why not. This is very much a no frills beginner VR headset, which is fine. And if it breaks, well for the price it won't hurt that bad. But as for quality - at least with this particular device I picked up - feels like "you get what you paid for." Basic focus wheel, another dial to widen the lens to match your eyes. It does come with a controller that pairs via bluetooth to your phone. My iPhone XS Max WILL fit the headset, barely. It's a bit of a challenge to squeeze it in without triggering the On/Off screen of the iPhone, activating Siri, or the volume buttons on the side. With a case on, no it simply won't fit, even an Apple leather case - so the case needs to come off. A concern for me personally also, when using this iPhone model and the hard, kind of cheap feeling plastic clamps to hold the phone in place...a fear of scratching your iPhone sides is real. I personally didn't want to risk that so I added some tiny pieces of foam to those VR clamps inside. Adjusting the dials for focus, again for the line of eyesight - again this may have been THIS particular model - it felt like these dials are ready to break off the device itself. I saw some reviews about that you can wear glasses with these, no you can't. So removing them and with myself having really terrible eyesight, I was still able to focus and see clearly through this headset. The head strap is adjustable, so this is a plus! Now once you get it set up, How to watch VR. I was manly messing around with VR on YouTube (Just type in VR in the search) Roller coasters, skydiving, VR tours of different countries, even space launches as if YOU were the astronaut. Since this was the first time I experienced VR,I found these videos just wild and fun. But after a few minutes feeling a little queasy, dizzy - that is to be expected I think. There are other apps you can download for free, Google Cardboard, from here you can sync up the Utopia model headset by using the phones camera to scan the QR code. More apps will be available though here. Plenty of other free VR apps via IOS and Android stores. One app may of us have on our devices is "Google Maps / Google Street View." This has a VR option built in. Once clicked, now you can feel you are literally on almost any street on the planet and look around - gives a sense that you are actually there. I even tried an online VR video converter - Too 10, 15 seconds of The Avengers as a "test" to see how this would look in the headset. That is a cool experience, it's almost like sitting in an iMax theater and your 10 ft away from the screen! The file size does become very large though thought this processing, it becomes a "dual stereoptic screen," and the small clip pushed to almost 900mb, way, way up from 120MB The front (where the Utopia 360 logo is) has a slide to open to expose the phone camera - then to experience AR (Augmented Reality) content. This may work on certain phones - especially a single lens phone, it would not work on my XS Max, the camera lens just did not line up with the "cutout." The one big downfall I did notice with these apps, videos is it really takes a toll on your phones battery. Even heats the phone up since I guess it uses a lot more processing power. I can't even imagine watching a full 2 hour movie on this because A)battery life, a "hot" phone and B) I think one may get a major headache and disorientation after a while wearing this. My personal advice, use these in sort periods of time. The controller, even though this paired up with my iPhone with no problem, it just didnt seem to do anything with any app (there is a IOS and ANDROID switch on the side, even with IOS selected, I still could not get it working on a few games I downloaded.) Possible a settings issue and something I have to mess around with some more. So like i said its a basic "starter" headset. And for the price of 2-3 bucks...it was worth it to see what the VR was all about. Don't expect all the fancy functions like you see from the more expensive Gear, Oculus, the Hive. Utopia360 - for the very low price Best Buy has this for - it's cool for viewing, exploring some very interesting VR content without blowing away your bank account.

I got this because it was on a super sale. I was hoping it would fit my iphone 7 inside it's case. My case is pretty slim and dosent add much, but it's just a tad too thick so the thing pops open. Also, it does not have any apps or licenses that come with it. The remote looks cool, but is pretty cheaply made and only supports a small handful of apps on iOS. Anyway, worth it on super sale, but not at full price.

A decent VR for a good price, in case you are experimenting with VR for the first time. The controller isn't all that good but the headset is pretty good for your basic VR apps and games.

Working fine but the controller isn't easy to use. It's kind of plastic but i didn't expect much for what I've paid. If you want a basic, affordable VR this one will get the job done

Not equal to samsungs VR yet. It's an ok device for kids say 10 and under they will probably love it, just don't let them see the difference with samsungs VR device. It's an ok device I would give it a 3 out of 5 it's very comfortable, it has some ok apps that are free to download a few a little glitchy though. I even paid for one app and that wasn't so bad , just lost my attention after about 45 min. I believe that's the real issue the apps to view that are not up to that of the Samsung VR viewing apps. I figure 3-6 months this product will be worth investing in even now for $30 bucks or the one for $20 without the game remote is not a bad price for what it gives you ...a little entertainment ,a look into the future of games, tv shows, movies, ppl interaction and even more, future tech is coming it seems.

It’s pretty basic, it wasn’t expensive, though. They’re worth it, but also I’d say I’d go ahead and buy the more expensive ones. I got one can not get the “trigger” to work on the controller, which is necessary for all games. And nothing I can find about making it work. The rest of the controller works, because I can move the volume up and down, as well as mute my phone. So I’m not sure what’s up and google doesn’t know either. Haha. Anyway, if you have kids, and aren’t afraid of it falling off of their head with your phone in it, go ahead and get it for them. Search google cardboard apps first to find some that interest you for them.

I was a little bit disappointed in the apps available for the viewer. None of the apps I found used the hand controller. It does pair with my phone, but does not connect to the software so I am not sure if the controller does not work, or there are no apps that use the hand controller. The headset is ok. is has very minimal ability to improve focus so everything is a little fuzzy. I think the technology has a ways to go.

I purchased this for each one of my kids for Christmas. They opened it almost immediately. I was so skeptical when searching for a VR headset for a 10 & 6 year old because there are so many to choose from. This was such a great purchase - I couldn't be happier. It's comfortable for both of them to wear and has options to adjust on both the sides and front. The headset fit their phones just fine (Iphone 5 & 5S) as the phone holder has an adjustable cradle to accommodate most size phones. The clarity is nice and clear and the kids love them. So far, so good!

I figured this would be a good way to test out VR and see if it was worth pursuing further. Was able to play a few games with it and my 7-yr-old enjoyed it, but it's a little cumbersome to get the phone in and out of the unit, and it didn't work well with my glasses (which I do believe is mentioned somewhere on the box or in the included docs -- that results may vary with glasses). I'll probably return it since it's a little uncomfortable on my face with my glasses, and I have to work my glasses out of the unit when I'm ready to take it off.

Wow, this is super addicting! Anyone who's tried out a VR headset knows what I'm talking about. I also have a set of LG Tone Bluetooth earbuds for audio. Overall, this VR headset is worth the $40 I paid - it also came with a Bluetooth remote. The effectiveness of the remote depends on the formatting of VR apps and games out there. For example, I can play/pause on VR YouTube videos but navigating to the next video or back out to search results doesn't work. Not a big deal, honestly. The VR headset is pretty comfortable but weighs down on the nose after 20 - 30 mins. I recommend taking breaks. I love being able to adjust the eyepieces to correct distance for my eyes. This is a very helpful feature as different videos and apps require minor adjustments of the eyepieces to get the right focus and resolution. I use an LG G4 with this headset and it fits fine. Only wish the clamp holding the phone felt more secure when I put it in there, but not a huge deal. For $40 I am very happy with this product.

This was a birthday gift for a 12-year-old boy. He had been wanting this VR item for months, and I was waiting for the right and special time to give this to him. He loves his gift! I haven't heard him say it is difficult to use (he's really technologically smart). I would definitely recommend as a Christmas gift for not only kids, but anyone who wants to have fun.

Not bad for the price that I paid. Remote that came with headset does not work and feels cheap.

Good quality product at a good price, it is very functionable

The quality is not that good but I am not really disappointed due to its price and it does my job. I enjoy it every time I wear it. I don't really recommend if you really want a high quality since there are a lot of variety of VR out there in market. But if you are looking to start to feel the VR experience then this must be your first VR

Bought this on sale and for the price it's good. The controller is a huge disappointed. Some of the buttons work for volume for android and others don't do anything. I'll try and find a way to possibly configure the buttons. It's comfortable to wear, however the nose cutout for me is too big, which lets in some light. Also this did not fit my glasses. There is an action button that works fine. Lots of apps on cardboard and playstore to explore. Youtube 360 videos are great. The lens are clear. Some others things to note: fov is 102 degrees as per manufacturer, 1 year warranty included, there is a version without controller, the phone holder is kind of flimsy, however holds my 5.2 moto x well, This vr headset is good enough for now until I save up for higher end one.
