So...I've been slacking a little on the Daydream View VR review. When I received it, I was super excited...and I used it. A little. And then a little more. And then I ultimately realized that this isn't a product for me. I simply don't have the time to make proper use of VR, or any VR product for that matter. My actual reality is too demanding for virtual reality. But I want to be fair to those who are interested in the product, so check out the short video below for my impressions of this fancy piece of tech, and check out Google's own website if (after watching) you think it's for you.
Silicon Theory's Video Review - Daydream View VR Headset
As always, thanks for reading/listening/watching - we are going to be doing more of these style video pieces to mix things up and to try something different, so be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel (Silicon Theory) to get updates as they get published. Cheers!
One of the perks of a Pixel pre-order was the promise of a free goodie - the new Daydream View VR headset coming straight from Google. The initial guesstimate was that the codes would go out about 4 weeks after the device shipped (to avoid people getting the freebie and still returning their Pixel device) and since that window has elapsed, codes are starting to show up in email inboxes everywhere. Including ours at Silicon Theory!
So - coming soon, we'll give it a real world test and let you know our thoughts and a full review. In the meantime, if you're curious about VR and all its promise for the future, check out this article on whether VR is here to stay or is just a fad of our modern times.
