some students at my university got the specs for these, ordered printed cardboard in our university colors, distributed them at an "innovation gathering" and won a monetary prize.
fuck secondary education

They brought vr to people who barely knew what it was? Fuck them man
>>51680030

So how is it OP?
Use it for a day then forget about it.

pretty low res
the magnet doesn't work with the s3, and I'll have to do some arts and crafts to make it work
Everything either crashes or is slow as fuck
I guess these are all issues with my phone though. The cardboard should have come with some kind of strap or something to put around your head and hold it to your face handsfree. Also, a way to hold the phone in place better.
I saw a couple videos and it was cool. But as I said, low res.

Yeah you can use it
>fiddle around with the flimsy ass cardboard
>realize how impossible it is to navigate with your phone inside of it
>Get frustrated trying to play or switch to another video
>any slight bump will render it useless
Yeah totally worth it.

It'd need tons of padding to be comfortable with a strap. The weight of the whole thing pressing sharp cardboard into your nose bridge is not comfy at all.
Also, the magnet was a stupid idea from the start; it messes with the magnetic compass in orientation sensors, which could otherwise be used to help with gyro drift. I think newer cardboard designs implement the "button" as a lever that presses something against the screen instead.
I bought a plastic version of this, was about 13$. Videos are low res, apps suck, used it for a day and into the drawer it went. I actually bought it so I could play gta v in first person via ps4 and remote play. I'm waiting for easy root for my z5 so I could split the phone screen.
This came out yesterday...
>Cardboard Camera turns the smartphone in your pocket into a virtual reality (VR) camera. It’s simple to take a photo: just hold out your phone and move it around you in a circle. Later, when you place your phone inside a Google Cardboard viewer, you'll get to experience something new: a VR photo.
I just ordered a plastic one from Amazon

>Videos are low res
Were you using <1080p display?
Ahh, I probably should have gotten a plastic one.
I severely overpaid for this cardboard one anyway
>>51680471
He got the z5 and not the z5p baka tbqh fām
I kind of want to get one to try with my 6p but I can't find any that seem reasonably decent that don't cost a fortune. I doubt it would get much uses anyways.
One of plastic ones with a bluetooth remote seems useful, but reviews vary wildly.
Would a note 5 fit in one?
