VR Headsets; Google Daydream bring Virtual Reality to the masses

Although there are plenty of VR headsets in the market but none of them has quite hit this type of comfort and price to make them a mass market device.

That when Google new Daydream come in, and it's got plenty amount of potentials in it. It is incredibly well designed, light, soft and a fabric coating to the harsh, brutal plastics coatings of its competitors.

The big surprise of Daydream is the controller - it's absolutely fantastic.


It's about the size and shape of a chocolate bar, and it has motion sensors to track movement, rather like  Nintendo's Wii.

For Star Wars fans, navigation also feels rather light a lightsaber fight - a virtual line comes out of the controller with which you point at menu items.

In many ways, Daydream View would pale compared with Samsung's Gear VR headset were it not for the controller.

With the Gear VR, you have to move your head to point a cursor at something, then reach for a button on the headset - which is far from ideal.

With Daydream, you can just aim and click the controller in your hand, and that gives a much better sense of being immersed in the world.
