Homido Virtual Reality Headset for Smartphone

What a great product! I've tried headset-style 3D viewers, but they've been unsuitable for viewing my 3D SBS images because it was impossible to advance the slides and the image quality was poor - this simple viewer is perfect.I get a crisp clear 3D view without the hassle of mounting my phone in a clunky headset - the viewer is so easy to clip on and off taking just a few seconds, and it fits my Samsung S8 perfectly.One reviewer said that the image quality was poor, but I can only think that he hadn't removed the plastic lens protection that the product ships with.Do try out the 3D Steroid app (on Android) to produce your own 3D images, the app works perfectly with this Homido viewer - you'll love it!

Real quality cardboard headset. I previously bought a no-name £20 plastic headset and it was ok, but the lenses went a but blurry and it was heavy and annoying to clip together. This is much better. Phone is held securely by self-adjusting clips and the headset closes with magnets (much nicer than clips) Magnets are very strong, so no danger of it falling open and your phone is very well clamped into the opening portion of the unit anyway. This means that you can easily open it up to change settings. The button can be a bit hit and miss, but this may just be my phone...Headset is lighter than most units and the lenses are clearly much higher quality with very little distortion or fogging. It's pretty comfortable in use and generally works very nicely.

These are great - so much easier than a faffy cardboard box and will fit just about any phone. The lenses slide over the phone screen and are easy to centre, and they work brilliantly with Google VR tours and the Expedition app. It's been wonderful being able to take tours of faraway places during lockdown, especially revisiting some of the cities that I miss. They fold down into a tiny bag, with the setup barcode thoughtfully printed on the side (useful when you inevitably lose the leaflet, and then switch phones). Very good value, have also bought some for isolated friends.

I've bought several, including the Oculus Rift, but this is the first VR goggles that have not been a huge disappointment to me, in fact they work great. I still remember the shock when I first tried them out (with some VR landscape scenes downloaded from Google Play) with expectations near rock bottom, and just wow! I'm right there, albeit with some slight grain due to the resolution of my phone (S7, just about the best available, but even 12 megapixels spread over a sphere is going to give you grain).I've since also used it for FPV drone flight, and it works brilliantly there too - the first truly immersive FPV I've achieved.The best thing about this headset is that it is fully adjustable, both for IPD (inter pupilary distance - distance between your eyes), and for focus (I'm in my 50s and now need glasses to read). The next best thing is how easily the front opens up, and how well it grips the phone.Recommended.

Nice piece of gear at a reasonable price. Also added bonus to get a sturdy carry case. The only piece of criticism is that the little trigger which is supposed to touch the screen is either a touch too short or just doesn’t register on my iphone’s screen.

At the price I though it would be good, however the images are pixelated

Very disappointing. Poor picture quality. Pictures out of focus. Sent back to Amazon who gave me a refund without any quibbles

I work at an architectural practice and we were finding ourselves producing more and more 3D/VR content but google cardboard wasn't a professional enough solution (fine to give away free to clients etc), and the only other worthwhile solution was the Samsung Gear VR - which was not a viable option as all of the directors use iPhone's. We looked at a lot of options, but very quickly came to the realisation that being able to adjust focus is an absolute necessity.We had looked into buying the Homido V1 but thought it looked quite amateur-ish. Very glad we waited, this looks every bit as professional as any other. This is arguably better build quality than the Samsung Gear VR, is very comfortable to wear, holds every phone we've tried so far (S6 edge, iphone 7, One Plus). The ability to set the interpupilary distance is also a bonus.Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a mobile VR solution.
