The best vr cameras



Google Cardboard

Google wants to make virtual reality as accessible as possible, so enter Cardboard, a literal piece of cardboard that folds into a very portable VR headset. You can strap it to your head, you can hold it to your head – it doesn't really matter because all it cares about is giving you a quick, cheap and easy way to dip your toe in the VR waters.
Surprisingly, the VR is actually quite good. It's incredibly easy to share with people too, since they can just press it up against their heads if they want in on some tasty VR content. It's also compatible with most smartphones, including iPhones, making it a good choice for anyone who is looking to experience VR without too much of a cost.

Merge VR Goggles

The sneaky underdog of the mobile VR headset world, the Merge delivers everything you want from a mobile headset. It works with a wide variety of smartphones, including iPhone. It's made out of a soft foam, so it's both comfortable and light.
It's also got a bunch of doodads to help you customise your mobile experience. Adjust the lenses all you want, click two buttons to interact with your content; pop out the front window in case you ever need to use it for mixed/augmented reality purposes. Speaking of which, Merge now also sells the AR Merge cube, which lets you put mixed reality experiences in the palm of your hand.

HTC Vive Pro

Almost three years after the reveal of the first headset, HTC has revealed the HTC Vive Pro, which bumps up the visuals to a 3K resolution - 2880 x 1600 to be precise - built-in headphones, and a new nose flap to better keep out any leaking light.
Oh yeah, and it's now blue. But otherwise this is still the same headset, field of view included. Think of it less at Vive 2.0, but vive 1.5, and we expect it will appeal primarily to the VR enthusiasts. In our short time trying it out we really noticed the crisper resolution, while the inclusion of the headphones makes it feel more complete.

Pimax 8K

On Kickstarter now for $499, Pimax's new 8K VR headset is aimed at solving two VR problems: motion sickness and not-so-great field of views. It does this by going wide with a 200-degreee field of view, which is closer to the human field of view of 220 degrees. It also has two 3840 x 2160 displays.
