VR SHINECON VR Headset Glasses High-end Version of The Removable 3D Virtual Reality Helmet 4.7-6.8 inches for TV, Phone Movies,Education& Video Games Compatible iOS,Android

I'll admit I'm behind the times in this area of tech - usually being the first to try new gadgets - and my inner tech junkie has been teasing me to pick up a pair. I finally decided to settle in these and I'm glad I did.The VR SHINECON VR Headset Glasses are a great option if you're looking for an affordable headset that's also super simple to use. It's compatible with a wide range of smartphones, (both android and iPhone) and you can see my review pics. I was using a Google Pixel 6a.Sidenote - that was the one I happened to use to illustrate a house to use the headset for my pics and I'm mostly using the Google Pixel 6 Pro when operating. This is a huge reason I chose this set because the Pixel 6 Pro is rather large and comes in just at/under their requirements, but I had no problems with it fitting or in its usage. Just a heads-up for you guys out there with larger handsets.The headset is pretty comfortable, has adjustable straps that make it easy to wear for longer periods and it also has a built-in headphone jack for a more immersive experience.This set has an ultra-wide field of view, perfect for any fellow photographers out there looking to experiment. I'm a Google Local Guide and also enjoy finding ways to add new twists to my photography. This is perfect for enjoying Panorama, 360° Street View and adds an amazing high-resolution realistic display for those of you that enjoy creating the 360 photo cubes!I was surprised how clear and sharp the images and video are - it's also compatible with a variety of VR games and apps, so you can find something out there for everyone.I will say in the beginning I had an issue with the playback in video. It would tell me I needed to download "Google AR/VR Services" then direct me to Google Play where it would inform me that it was for an older version of Android and not available for my phone.It confused me in the beginning because the Pixel 6 Pro is this thing that was built with android 13, gets all the updates first and has built-in AR/VR capabilities. But, not to worry. If this happens to you, just ignore the message and continue on to watch or view the content of your choice and once it begins you'll see you may just need to adjust the focal points on the sides. I don't know how - but it does auto enable in those cases and will play in full VR.Like I said, I'm impressed with the quality of the visual experience I'm getting while being this affordable and (again, its with repeating, it's so easy-to-use!!!It's definitely one of those buys that you start playing with right out of the box and before you know it, hours have passed. But hey, I say go ahead and enjoy it. This is one I'll be using for years to come thanks to its durable frame and construction and I look forward to even more things I can discover in using it for. Highly recommend it!

Your phone is the biggest part of making this work, it'll do decent 3D/VR if your phone is strong enough and the right size to get the VR effect on your head/face. Built decently, but if kids throw things this won't last. But the price makes that far easier to deal with than a full VR rig!

It's not for me I'm sure someone child will enjoy it

I was never able to adjust the focus properly, picture was always blurry. Also, getting the phone setup perfectly level is a bit tricky. There are better headsets out there for the same price.

This is our first VR headset. It is very comfortable, it can be used for adults and kids (mine are 6 and 8). They have an adjustment for the size of the space between eyes. Make sure you remove the glasses protection to see it clearly. We bought it to use in VR educational videos and it works great. If you are a beginner in this realm I will tell you what we did: We have to figure it out how to find the kind of videos that can be used in this headsets, you can find them in youtube or download the ones that are used for cardboard. You also will need a cardboard app in your phone to make the videos compatible. We downloaded that and another app for vrvideos. The screen has to show a divided screen with two images that has to have rounded edges. It did not work for just a divided image (it will look blurry). Then put your phone (my is a Motorola) in the cage (it does not matter which side) and voila! There is a second adjustment to see nitid image according to youe eyes. It works really great. It is super cool.

The quality of the headset is good and fits on children smaller adults’ heads fine. The issue is really the functionality since you have to dedicate a phone and download apps. Without a remote, the functionality is pretty limited to watching things and playing games that rely on pointers. Overall, kids have limited play time and didn’t love it.

This was pretty easy to set up. You just put your phone on after downloading some VR apps. I do wish there were more choices for apps or they had their own app, but that's beyond the scope of this purchase. It was pretty comfortable on my head. When you get a good app it's super realistic. I also wish you could access the phone without fully taking it out of the headset, but I don't know how that would be possible. Overall I'm happy with this fun little purchase.

These are clunky and never really seem to allow for clear screen viewing. You can’t adjust the forward and backward of the lenses enough to do any good. So you end up settling for kind of blurry.
