Fits my phone, No: Virtual Reality (VR) Headsets

I was hoping to watch videos/Netflix in bed without holding my phone but this product is hard of hearing/requires subtitles. Most of the video was cut and I couldn't read the CC. This is ideal for videos/images/games where the video is routed through two circular images and the rest of the screen remains black.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Not all will fit

Read This First: Is Your Phone Enough?

VR/AR glasses are limited by the resolution of your smartphone. Because the image is split in two (one side for each eye), your resolution is severely limited. Considering how close the phone is to your eyes during use, the user's eyes tire quickly. The main reason for this product's coolness is its 360-degree view and full audio and visual immersion, but poor pixel quality limits the overall enjoyment.

Pros
  • price
Cons
  • crumpled packaging

But this is a very good product. My dad used to bungee jump

Let me start by saying I wasn't sure. You always see reviews of these things, both positive and negative. I had ordered a set before and it was immediately returned. This set offers crystal clear focus and works great with my iPhone 7plus. You must remove all cases from your phone before use. But this is a very good product. I've taken my dad bungee jumping, I've taken my mom under the Eiffel Tower, and I've sent my son to the Natural History Museum naming dinosaur fossils. I love her

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Hard to say

WILL NOT FIT GLASSES

This product would have received a very different rating if it were not advertised as suitable for glasses. The lenses can hardly be adjusted, they move neither forwards nor backwards, ie if you wear glasses, big time no go. You just aren't comfortable with glasses either, even if you manage to fit them to your glasses. Can only be worn about 10 minutes before the migraine and the pressure is too strong. They broke and bent my new prescription glasses. Also, they are generally not suitable for…

Pros
  • So far satisfied
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

A novelty for regular content passes, but not for adult content!

It's pretty good. The variety of VR content on popular streaming sites will bore you. Some games are ok. Where this device really shines is in adult content. Yes I would say it probably makes it at least 6 times better. I even recommend paying for a subscription to the site of your choice. There are some really good ones. The device sits quite comfortably on the head and is not heavy at all. The buttons you use for screen content work fine. I still used my phone in the case and it's no problem…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • No instructions

Straight to the point

I ordered this a while ago just to watch Buzzfeed's "Worth It" show on YouTube. Now I can see food as if it were on my face, which is about to be literally consumed by pixels. Seriously, the comfort for a triple harness is pretty decent. It does what it's supposed to, but loses points for top strap comfort. However, it works. Comfort would rate 3.5/5 instead of 3/5 but there is no middle option. Now the phone sizes are different. Not sure if your device will fit, but put it from another…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Something different

piss off! Misleading Ads

This product is misleading and as a customer I feel taken advantage of. I was hoping to buy 10 headphones for my class if all goes well. I bought my first Fusion headset. I then found out I had to buy the Merge Cube and then I had to buy Apps ($1.99+). This moment annoys me. I spent about $90 total. So I get a headset, two dice, a few games but I can't play them because I need a controller now! WTF. I've never used a VR headset, so I don't know anything about these things. The packaging and…

Pros
  • Many Compatible Devices - Works with iOS and Android smartphones and is easy to use for students aged 10+.
Cons
  • Not bad but...
