Look and Feel

It has a nose shaped cut that makes it more breathable.Daydream view has an outer body made up of foam and soft fabric and feels nice to hands, but what if it get dirty? Not a problem,the outer fabric is removable and hand washable too.

Features

 Google, to make this Daydream experience great for some early birds has launched a Harry Potter game that ties in with beasts and where to catch them. With google’s new headset you can experience the google street view and 360-degree videos much interestingly. Daydream view is available for pre-order in some countries and will be available worldwide soon with a price tag of $79.

Cons

Google is surely eyeing on capturing the VR market with its new headsets but it has some flaws too. It has a single band to fasten it tightly around the head. It’s just not enough to support the entire weight of the headset along with the phone in there. Another flaw is that it’s supported by Google’s newly released phones Pixel X and Pixel XL only for now. Availability is limited and is available for preorder in some countries like United States, Canada, United Kingdom.
Google always comes up with its innovative ideas and for $79 it is worth giving a shot!
