[Nexus 6P Accessories] steveo17:
Virtual Reality is becoming more and more easily accessible. These VR glasses make it super easy to be somewhere you’re not!

The box comes with: a microfiber cloth, the VR headset, and instructions.

VR was proven to be easy to achieve thanks to Google Cardboard, which is a VR headset made from basic materials like cardboard, magnets and rubber bands. This headset is an improved and sturdier version of Cardboard since it’s made out of hard plastic.

To use this product, you will need a smartphone. Any smartphone will do, but it is recommended that you use one that is up to date and can downloaded the latest apps, since that’s one of the most important things here.

Apps I tested: Google Cardboard app, Vrse, Google StreetView and Discovery VR.

Note: These apps don’t come with the product and must be downloaded separately, depending if you’re using Android or iOS. They’re all free, but you must understand that the apps are about half of what you need to make this work.

Thoughts on the product:

I’ve used Google Cardboard so I had previous knowledge of how VR works. You can say this is an upgrade from that since it feels like a real headset, it’s made from hard plastic, and it even has cushions for your face. There are two adjustable settings: one to adjust the focus of the glasses themselves and the second one is to set how far away your phone is from your eyes.

Let's start with customization and comfort. You can adjust pretty much every feature of the glasses. From the straps to the focal length and distance between the lenses. Truly a "one size fits all" product.

Regarding performance, the lenses are extremely clear. Once you have them on, you can adjust the lenses to get the best quality of image. If you haven't tried the VR experience before, you are in for a ride. The image quality is fantastic.

The way the the phone goes into the goggles is awkward at best. Yes, it will fit a phone up to 6" screen size, but not comfortably. I tried using it with my Nexus 6P and i struggled getting the phone in there (did not fit with the case on). When i finally got the phone in, the braces were touching the buttons causing it to not function properly. What i did is i took out the the bracket that is supposed to hold the phone in place and it works great now. little hack that made this very functional with my phone case on and everything.

Another negative aspect I found for these glasses is that if you are in a very bright location, some light does get in through the side slats. This does not happen often and not really a deal breaker for me. It is also something that can be fixed quite easily with tape.

Here is my list of pros and cons:

Pros:

- Adjustable.

- Comfortable on your face. Nice padding.

- Quality materials. Not too heavy.

- Works with most phones.

- Nice additional items such as stylus and microfiber cloth.

- Image quality. Great lenses.

- Easy to use and set up with your phone.

Negatives:

- Side slats allow a bit of light in.

- No way of interacting with touch screen when phone is in the VR goggles (google cardboard Star wars edition had something to touch the screen). would really like if i didn't have to take the phone out of the goggles every time i wanted to change what i am doing

- Fitting larger phones (nexus 6P, LG V10) are awkward

See pictures for details (will post pictures when i get home from work)

I received this at a discount for my review, but my review is completely honest in what is stated.

Please let me know if you have any questions guys. I am more than happy to answer them.
