An extra $27 gets you a far more comfortable headset with controller and much better lenses. Well worth it.
and the remote!
I bought it last deal for $25
Yeah works great but I can't be bothered to use it, so it is lying around in the cabinet
Lol mine is unopened just sitting on my desk, still in the shrink wrap..
Ill take this off your hands if youre in brisbane cbd :)
I don't deal with the maroons mate… JK I'm in Sydney else would be happy to deal :D
Your PM's aren't on, but I'd happily give mine away for $28 if you would like in Brisbane CBD.
Sounds good - I just joined up today to post here re this
Pm's are available from tomorrow apparently
Thanks! I missed out on this deal last time and almost paid full price for one.
Nice deal OP, shame that it appears to be compatible with only a select number of phones. Has anyone had success in getting this to work on phones other than the ones listed on the website?
LG G6 unsuccessful here.
it doesn't allow you to use it? or it doesn't fit/etc?
G6 here too, unfortunately it just says it's uncompatible and exits out of the app.
As such, it's just sitting there, next to my bedside table. Taking up space in typical ozbargain fashion because I can't control myself… :S
Probably bootlooping 😜
AMOLED display is a requirement for daydream.
Works fine on my Nexus 6p. Had to edit a file to get it to work but no biggie.
Any chance you could link us to a guide on this? Or name the file? Really want to get this going on my 6P!
It was a couple of months ago but this looks like the guide I used:
https://www.vrheads.com/how-manually-enable-daydream-phones-…
For the apps, these should be OK:

compatible with only a select number of phones
I believe the reason for that is that the compatible models meets certain performance criteria that makes for a much better experience. Stuff like accelerometer sampling speeds and screen capabilities and so on.
Got it working on nexus 5x, but it runs hot
Anyone tried with S8+, curious given this seems cheap!
Yes, it is one of the supported phones so it works flawlessly.
Yes I use this with an S8 - it's really very good. I upgraded to this from a Stealth VR 200 from EB Games and this is much better. Just Google on the headband position for this.. as I was doing it wrong.
works with note 8.
One thing I can say is that the focus is terrible and not adjustable. Biggest gripe.
more bragging rights
Mmm…. I was going to get this deal until I saw this comment
Out of stock. "Sorry. We don't have enough 'Google VR (Daydream View) (128466)' in stock to fulfill your order"
Just as I hit the checkout and final pay screen too!
I still didn't open the one i got from the previous deal, anyone interested can i sell it for the same price. With receipt
Im keen to take this off your hands
Which location mate?
Pickup from Melbourne CBD only.
Just sold. thx for replies
I just got in it seems like, got ozbargained pretty quickly. Thanks OP!
I upgraded to this from a Stealth VR 200 from EB Games and this is much better especially for this price. Just Google on the headband position for this.. as I was doing it wrong.
I have a Pixel 2XL, should I buy this???
It's out of stock.. purchasing it in any case is your choice.. but you'll be compatible - https://www.androidcentral.com/these-are-daydream-ready-phon…
:( I guess for the best, reading some of the earlier posts, people don't even use them. I might just wait for the newer model to drop in price maybe? I don't want to pay full price for something that I will likely not use very often…
It's really good for a supported phone, otherwise it's a bit average, I'd happily ship mine to you for $28 shipped if you want it.
@doweyy: haha, thanks for the offer…but I am sort of happy I missed out I guess haha
Maybe you can give it to barbz127 if you are both in Brisbane?
https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/5404630/redirIt seems that the people not using the Daydream mostly didn't try them out to begin with. I got this version and it is fantastic with my Moto Z-Force Droid, much better than the Samsung VR I used previously (which is now collecting dust). Try Wonderglade for free game and Eclipse Edge of Light and Wands (amazing as long as you can find a challenger) if you have some play store credit from surveys/ Telstra Sims to spend.
It's pretty good. If you have an unsupported phone you can use it like a google cardboard but there can be some issues. I noticed that the headset sometimes activates the touch screen when I'm trying to watch youtube videos. It also either hits the power button or the volume button when I move. But I think that's just what it going to happen with my phone (s7 edge)
dont buy it.
i bought it, used it for like 2 hours, now its in my kids toy bin somewhere.
Thanks for the in depth review.
It lasted about 30 minutes…I wonder how many there were to buy in the first place!
Still waiting for the last one to be delivered…after being sent twice to the wrong address and ended up back in their distribution centres…3rd time lucky at the moment!
I bought this last time, but I don't have a compatible phone. I thought I'd at least be able to get some basic cardboard like use out of it but the remote won't connect to the phone (presumably because it's a non-compatible phone) so that kind of makes it a bit useless as you can't select anything. Has anyone managed to get the remote working on a non-compatible phone?
Damn it. Missed it last time(s).
So much for the notify me option on the Telstra site!
If anyone does have one they aren't using, and are in Perth, feel free to PM me.
happy to sell mine if someone wants it for $20
Will shoot you a PM.
Missed it again… :(
Anyone selling one around Briabane area? Happy to purchase one. :)damn missed out, would be keen to get one off anyone who is sick of theirs :)
This thread should be moved to classifieds!
Damn. Anybody know if this older version is compatible with the Note 8?
Missed out.
Edit:
Happy to buy one if somebody is selling in the Sydney area.
Bought it yesterday
Already got it delivered this morning.
That's quick :)
Thanks
Add me to the Want To Buy list too! Gold coast area.
Cheers!
My 1$ google cardboard works perfect xD
