Vodiac VR – Virtual Reality Goggles, 75 Free VR Videos

This headset provides a comfortable but limited VR experience with the app. The image quality was just okay. The app is the main limiting factor. One of the experiences was a view from an Arctic submarine.

The headset fits me very comfortably and is easily adjustable. I wore the headset for about 30 minutes without any discomfort. The viewing experience is limited to the app that you can download to your phone. Your phone locks into the front part of the headset, but the protective case on your phone must be removed for it to lock into the phone mount properly. I have an iPhone 6S Plus and it works ok, but the viewing experience is better with a newer phone. The app setup instructions are very clear and simple. I was able to begin using the device within minutes.

I got these because I have always wanted to try them. I don’t know anything about VR goggles but whenever I have seen them in other places they cost a LOT more. So, these might be more of “entry-level” goggles. They are OK. I would never parachute or paragliding so this way I can do it in the safety of my own home. I have only tried a few of the videos and to me, nothing special. But, I am a senior citizen!

I’ve never used VR goggles before but was definitely curious about them. These were easy to assemble and setting up an account was a breeze. I have an iPhone 14 Pro and did have to take my case off to get the phone to fit even though it’s a slim design case. Adjusting the focus was a bit tricky. I wear a contact in one eye as I do monovision to avoid wearing reading glasses. It took some time and it did give me a bit of a headache initially but eventually I got everything into focus and was no longer seeing double. The goggles fit comfortably but aren’t snug so there is a tiny bit of light that comes through. Not enough to take away from the experience though. There are quite a few videos that you can choose from once you use the code provided to get all access. For instance, I spent some time skydiving even though I’m terrified of heights. It was very realistic and a bit trippy to think that I was actually just sitting on my couch while all this was going on. I’m pretty sure I had my arms out as well. Lol. I still don’t know much about the VR world but so far it’s been pretty fun and I think this is a good product for someone who is new to it all.
