Field of view of the VR box posted earlier pissed me off, but there is a good response in this reddit: https://m.reddit.com/r/GoogleCardboard/comments/4clhwj/fov_q…
I am pretty happy with standard cardboard FOV at 90 degrees, so then technically at 95 this should be all right, however not sure if I am ready to jump until I read a few reviews. If anyone has one your opinions are appreciated
Edit: Had a closer look and visually it's almost identical to the VR Box. My experience with this is it clearly beats Cardboard for comfort, but the field of view is just not enough to be immersive (I am using a 5.2" phone) so it's probably only for watching normal movies and not fro any VR apps.
Also if it is the same unit it's not really a deal as the VR box is still available from others for less than this costs (AU$10.20) with a bluetooth remote http://www.dd4.com/goods/VR-BOX-2.0-Cardboard-VR-Virtual-Rea…
