Mini Virtual Reality Glasses for Smartphone Foldable VR Headset Compliant with iPhone & Android Cell Phone Vr Games and 3D Movies

I own several Google Cardboard viewers. My Homido Mini just arrived and I am pleasantly surprised at just how much of the immersion of the Google Cardboard experience this device preserves. Although this device does not include a push button, touching the screen while I keep holding the device to my eyes works fine, and was not very disruptive to the experience.I think that a big part of preserving the immersiveness is that the optical paths are tight enough so that, with my Nexus 6, if I hold the viewer normally, I can't look past the edges of my cell phone screen, at least if I'm looking through the lenses. However, if I look far enough to the side, I can see along a path from my eye that does not go through the lens, although I can hold my hands in a manner that avoids most of that.I am thinking about wrapping the eyepiece rim with electrical tape to make a shroud from the lenses toward my eyes to reduce that optical path even more.I have not tried this device in a social setting yet (since mine just arrived), but I suspect that it is probably less isolating than a regular Google Cardboard viewer, because your friends should be able to get a glimpse from the side to get an idea of what you are viewing.I recommend this product as a second Google Cardboard reader, one that you can carry around to fulfill your civic duty to introduce everyone who crosses your path to Google Cardboard. I look forward to carrying this in my work bag, the glove compartment of my card, or a pocket.However, even though I give this product five stars, I also want to recommend that every Google Cardboard fan should also have a more conventional Google Cardboard viewer (that is, with the shroud that covers your eyes and ideally with an over-the-head headband to improve enjoyment of the longer viewing experiences, such as that tour of the planets application). Although the price that this device pays for portability is less than I expected, I am sure I will still prefer to use a conventional Google Cardboard viewer when I am at home.

I purchased these to demo 3D and VR work I have done. They clip on to your phone and provide a reasonable experience.Pros:- Super compact. Great to carry with you at all times when trying to network or even to an interview to show off your work.- You can hold your phone closer or further from your face with no issues, helps account for different eyes.- You can easily access the screen, unlike with a headset. You can still touch the center portion that google cardboard uses as a button. I actually prefer this, it's very quick a versatile.Cons:- Build quality. I bought one to try and it was great. I bought a few more to give out and found the lenses were not properly glued in, one was scratched. You'll have to do a little work to fix them up.- Doesn't come with a bag or anything. basically just wrapped in crinkly plastic.- Doesn't block out light or surroundings. Nothing to be done about this and I think the portability trade off is worth it.I really like these and just wish the build quality was better. It seems really hit or miss, even though I bought them all from the same seller.

The distance between the lenses areNOT adjustable. The fixed distance would probably be fine for a child, but not for most adults as the distance between right and left lenses is too small for an average adult, and it makes stereo viewing impossible. Also the image is only sharp if your pupils are over the exact center of the lens. Also the Google Cardboard app, that the included instructions give you a QR code to download, doesn't allow you to view any images stored on your phone, with no help how to do so. You have to search for a viewing app that works with SBS (Side By Side) images - but even after finding the best available app you still have the distance between lenses issue. This product is useless and a huge disappointment.

Fits in a tiny bag, which can slide neatly into my small purse, and makes it possible to view (and show others) VR pictures easily, wherever I am. I use the google cardboard camera app with my friends. We've moved apart geographically since college, but the camera app combined with these tiny portable VR glasses makes it possible to easily share and view immersive VR photos... and it's the next best thing to actually being there.So if my friend's at a conference in NYC, he can take a cardboard camera photo and text me a link to it... I get the text, pull out these glasses, and I get to look around at times square at night, staring up at all of the buildings and people, listening to the noise of the crowd... seeing just what he's seeing. When I'm traveling, I return the favor.

I like the fact that you can view 3D content with these by simply snapping them on your phone.I own a 3D camera, and it definitely gives me a simple way to view my own 3D photos and videos. You may need to tinker a bit to get the best image, especially if you wear glasses.My problem is that there isn't a lot of 3D content out there that you can use that isn't based on things like Google Cardboard. Unfortunately a lot of the content that uses Google Cardboard requires some sort of controller button to navigate the menus. Some Google Cardboard headsets use a magnet that your phone senses using the built-in compass, so I found it hard getting some of those apps to work.That said, it did a great job of playing my own 3D content. Once again it's still a bit tricky navigating from photo to photo, but at least with videos, I can just hit play before looking into the lenses.
