Huawei unveils its mobile VR headset

Another handset maker gets into the headset online game. Huawei announced its entry to the world of mobile digital reality today with multiple versions of the Gear VR-like headset merely called “Huawei VR” Engadget reviews.

Huawei unveiled Huawei VR in a Shanghai launch event for that P9 and P9 In addition smartphones today. The headset is nearly entirely a clone from the Gear VR in that you simply slot a smartphone to the viewer, put on a mind strap and navigate VR quite happy with a touchpad quietly. Regardless, it’s awesome to determine more phone makers toss their VR hats to the ring early-on, though it might be nice to see a few added features here.

The report does estimates Huawei as asserting how the Huawei VR is the very first mobile VR headset to aid “360-degree sound field” (with headphones). The apparatus VR does indeed support spatial audio with the MilkVR app so it’s a little unclear whether this is simply a meaningless marketing get or whether there’s really some cool new tech at the office here.

One noticeable difference between your two devices in real use will have nothing related to the headsets themselves however will instead highlight precisely how lackluster the 1080p screen resolutions from the compatible P9 and Partner 8 smartphones are when compared to QuadHD displays on the brand new Samsung Galaxy S7 collection.

No word upon pricing or availability, but considering that none from the compatible smartphones are arranged to be released in America, don’t expect to be wearing one of these simple bad boys stateside at any time soon.
