The editors didn't like
Basically no apps at launch
Light bleed affects immersion
Smaller field of view than Gear VR
Not much to experience in Daydream (yet)
Pixel XL sticks out of the headset
Controller constantly needs recalibrating
Semi-limited range of movement
Only 2 phones supported as of launch
Small library of content at launch
Final Thoughts
Folks that already own a Nexus 6p or are already planning on purchasing a Pixel or Pixel XL need look no further for the VR experienc
Only a handful of apps
Google cardboard apps wont work (Might be fixed later)
Headset can get warm and uncomfortable after about 10 minutes of use
360 video content ranges in video quality
Light leak a MAJOR problem
Limited field of view
Headset slips too easily when worn
Very little hardware and software support so far
Prone to gapping and light leak
Requires frequent recalibration/orientation
Only works with Pixel and Pixel XL at launch
FOV could be wider
Only works with Pixel phones at launch
Tiny initial software library
Only compatible with the Google Pixel (for now)
Pentile display makes reading text extremely difficult
Major performance issues with extended use (overheating)
Not compatible with Google Cardboard apps
Could be a bit more formfitting
It only works with Google Pixel and Moto Z for now (more on the way). The headset is front-heavy and frequently needs adjusting. There's limited app selection at launch and you can't walk around or grab things in VR

no wires, comfortable for longer than you'll probably want to wear it in one go; responsive and has an easytouse controller
drift is common, restricted to the Pixel phones for now, no killer app, no full joypad for more intense games, like other VR headsets will make some feel sick
Daydream View is the best mobile VR headset available at the moment. It's more comfortable than competitors, is part of a promising new platform and is relatively affordable. But it suffers the same problem as Samsung's Gear VR: it doesn't have a killer f...
Daydream content is high-quality, Remote has a long battery life and is ergonomic, Daydream View is comfortable to wear, Easy to use, Affordable
Phone gets hot fast, Light can leak into headset, for some users, Only compatible with Pixel and Pixel XL right now
Yes. Google's Daydream View headset is a must-buy for those interested in VR and with a compatible phone. Its content is going to multiply as the year goes on, and we may see more exclusives like Fantastic Beasts.To be sure, Daydream is not perfect. The c...
Which is the better option for you depends on your needs – if you want to experience VR casually, Google's Daydream VR may be a better option for you. The experience is good, and as the library expands and more Daydream compatible phones are released in t...
Clever controller opens up more VR possibilities, Should eventually support loads of phones, The price is right
Limited app and phone support at launch, Headset lets in quite a bit of light
From the brief time we've spent with the Daydream View so far, we're really, really impressed with it. It looks great, is extremely comfortable, and it serves up simple, easy functionality, thanks to its easy pairing system and bundled remote - all at a...
Comfortable hardware, Responsive controller, Easy to use
It wouldn't be fair to compare Daydream View with headsets like Oculus Rift and HTC Vive, as they are far more expensive. There are some obvious merits to the VR headset and there are a few flaws. Like we mentioned, the VR experience could have been a lit...
Clever controller opens up more VR possibilities, Should eventually support loads of phones, The price is right
Limited app and phone support at launch, Headset lets in quite a bit of light
Daydream View isn't supposed to give PSVR, Oculus Rift or the HTC Vive a run for their money.It's an inexpensive headset that works with your phone to deliver VR experiences. Compromised ones, sure, but then it's running off something that slips in your p...
Abstract: Después de revolucionar el mercado virtual con los modelos Cardboard, Google presentó la plataforma DayDream. ¿Será este el nuevo estándar de la realidad virtual de bajo coste? Con un pedazo de cartón y un par de lentes baratas, Google quiso convertir la...
