About $20 locally, and looks like AliExpress can't even compete at this price!

    • is this a /humblebrag ?

    • Thank mate now all i need is your Date Of Birth and SSN…
      THANKS:)

  • +1

    Bought. I'm looking forward to comparing it with the Virtoba from Geekbuying, which I'm still waiting for!!!

  • Grabbed a pair. Looking forward to trying these things out :) Thanks OP!

  • Any idea, what are the difference between the items with different prices.. all look same in the below link

    http://www.dd4.com/index.php?app=finds&cate_id=0&keyword=VR+…

    • Sold by different sellers, so each has their own pricing I think.

  • Gave up on this website, found it on Aliexpress for $10 AUD

    • Yeah I can't seem to check out on this site, can you link it to me on Aliexpress?

      • http://s.aliexpress.com/3eyaIjaQ

        This is the same right??

        Might need to order on mobile to get the price.

        • +2

          Doesn't look reliable. Has no feedback yet and was just opened. I'd be surprised if they are throwing in free EMS shipping for $10.

  • Spent 30mins on this website. Given up…

  • Any suggestions on a budget phone that is good for VR?

  • Thanks OP, got one. site is hellishly slow compared to other times.

    If you're after the inexpensive Cardboard Google Cardboard then this new seller is selling them for US$0.92 cents

    This one not a real 3D, it will get you headache, it like a toy for kid, I got them and then return already. Bad VR.

    • BS.. Depends on your phone.

  • Great deal! However, mine has been sitting in a cupboard since I've got it (from another deal). Played with it a bit but that was it.

  • What phones is it compatible with?
    any?

    • +1

      Anything in that size range (3.5-6")

        That's what she said.

          Who is she? Your mom? Giggity

  • These seem like rubbish? Had been meaning to try out google cardboard but this is cheap. I have bought way too many cheap gadgets that always end up in the bin.

    • Are they?

  • Is the picture quality any good on a 5.5" 1080p phone? I think you can clearly see the individual pixels. It would be like watching a SD TV from half a meter away.

  • I purchased one. Will see how it goes! Google cardboard (from the ebay/myer promo) was fun for about 2 minutes but was average.

  • Anyone know one of these that would work with a Xiamo Mi Max (6.4" phone) ??

  • Cheers OP - bought myself one as a Fathers Day present along with a litre of Jack Daniels (should they be mutually exclusive?!):

    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/261947

    • Lol interesting combo! Just don't get him drunk before the VR! Might end up getting messy!

    • The Jack should cancel out the screen door effect nicely, good thinking.

    Looked at the web site and was about to stick all my details in, but it DOES NOT use https. All your details - name, address etc. are sent in plain text. Any site that is that slack with security should be avoided.

    • O, damn! Didn't even pay attention to that. I paid with PayPal, but RIP to the rest of my personal details if shit hits the fan, I am afraid.

      Edit: weird thing is, I've thought to go back and have a loot at the site. You're right, when you wanna create an account the site isn't secure, but if you wanna log in to an already created account then it's secure. WTH!

  • anyone else having issues checking out with the website?

    • Wait five minutes and try it again. Worked for me.

      • the site is very dodgy, i can't even log into my account to check my orders

  • Thanks op

  • anyone else just get refunded?

    • no, I just got shipping confirmation today.

  • -2

    Totally dodgy!
    Just got shipping confirmation, with my password in plaintext as my name - "Dear p455w0rd, Store Best999 has shipped your order …".
    Anyone else?

    Also, the SSL certificate does not match.

    • +1

      Sounds you accidentally put your password as your username when you signed up?

      • Looks like it. Website back up now, but very slow. DDOS from competitor or disgruntled supplier?

  • Just wondering if this is also suitable for IPHONE 6 Plus? does anyone has tried it on IPHONE 6 PLUS?

  • no news whatsoever from seller…….

  • I never got a shipping notification, but I just logged in and it says my order shipped 2 days ago, and has a tracking number.

    However the tracking number does not exist when I do a tracking search - and it says its a Netherlands tracking number. Dodgy. Will wait a month and then claim PayPal dispute if it never turns up.

    • it looks like trackable now…

    • I had the same issues, then I got an email last night with a different tracking number which currently says:

      The item is on transport to the country of destination

      • I've still had nothing. And have a lot of trouble trying to log into website.

  • Mine still says pending for shipping.

  • can someone please tell me if this product is suitable for IPHONE 6 Plus? does anyone has tried it on IPHONE 6 PLUS?

  • Have I wasted my money on DD4 as got shipped on 23rd but havent received it yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • +2

      Allow up to 4 weeks for HK shipping, it's only been 2 weeks.

      • Ok seems I need to be more patient :D thanks

    • I was expecting it to take a few weeks…have you got a tracking number via email (the one on the site doesn't work for me) ?

      • tracking number I received in email doesnt work on their site too..

  • I checked with DD4 in live chat to find the shipping company and managed to track it - it shows In Transit
    For me, the shipping company is Post NL , could be same for everyone but not very sure, Live chat and try to find out if you keen like me :)

  • For all who have received tracking number, check on below link guys :)

    One step closer to VR good times:

    "The item has arrived in the country of destination"

    • +1

      SWEET! same here…

  • I received that shipment email people are referring to, but when I click on it, in the next window that comes up FireFox warns me about a certificate issue and that I should close it. Anyone else saw that? I tried it couple of times and I always get the same warning, like the link I follow is dodgy or something.

  • +3

    Mine has arrived!!

  • +1

    Mine arrived too…
    Build quality was good for the price.
    will get to test more this eve.

    • lol, mine arrived today as well

  • mine arrived today too.

    the bt remote paired fine… haven't actually tested it beyond that.

    lenses are way better than the ones in any of the google cardboard versions i've bought before.

    it's great that you can adjust the PD and focus of the lenses, but does anyone know the best way to get it 'in focus'?
    i dont feel anywhere near as dizzy using this compared to the cardboard ones, but i think the focus is still a bit off.

  • Can anyone comment on the viewing angle?
    A 90 degree wide FoV is like a screen twice as wide as your viewing distance. So like sitting up close in a cinema.
    e.g. 1m away from a 55" TV. Cheap VR headsets are narrower.

    You can test it by noting where the image corresponds to a wall behind it, then measure distance to wall, and width.
    FoV = Arctan ( width/2/distance) x 2.

    A 120 degree field, which some VR headsets claim, is a fish-eye view like a dashcam. Requires more complex optics, not just one lens.
    Wraps around you, but the pixels will be huge.

    If anyone is having trouble getting this headset to focus in the Google cardboard app, you need to scan this qr code here to fix it

    • Thanks mate, just what I was looking for.
      Now I just need to get the remote working. It's paired, but can't get it to do anything.

      Shame these 3rd party headsets dont have the magnetic button like the Cardboard ones do.

  • now it's even cheaper

  • +1

    arrived this morning. no time to test. quality feels reasonable. Bluetooth control turns on.

  • Testing the remote controller. The mouse function doesn't seem to work. Probably I get a faulty one :(

    • In key mode, hold start+X at same time for mouse mode in android. The LED went blue for a moment.
      It took me a few tries to get it to work.
      It makes a decent music controller, except the most important key, play/pause, is the tiny little one.

      Works as d-pad arrows for me in game mode. That's good for finding and launching android apps. Use 'X' to select and '@' to go back/escape.

      Unfortunately it does not work in the Cardboard app.
      I can't even get it to work as the select button to replace the magnetic one. So why is this bundled with the headset??
      Any games it works well with? Or 3D movie players?

      • Dud you find any fix, for clicking on stuff in the Cardboard apps?

        • I'm using the Virtoba headset. Much nicer for VR.
          Was thinking the bluetooth would be good for a movie player, but have gone off the idea of movies in a VR headset.

  • Is there another app apart from the default app given? It's in Chinese and I can't understand it unless there's a way to change to English.

    • What default app? was there a link to a default app? I can read chinese hahaha

      • There's a little QR code on the little instruction manual thing.

  • Still waiting :-(

  • it took about 1.5 weeks after landing in australia to get mine. Picked it up today.

    Can someone take a good photo of the QR code for me? My phone can't pick it up from the tiny one on the instruction manual..

    Or if you guys can link to where the app is

  • After the Worstgear took forever to deliver and refund, finally I got mine from this deal. It's a way better deal compare to pay out and got frustration.

  • thank you, mine arrived just now!

  • Does anyone know if the S7 edge with a case will fit in the large version? I bought a Google cardboard and it didn't fit 😣
