I've used a similar device.. Not cardboard sha but basically the same.. It's quite a novel experience.. If indeed you can get it for 3k, then I'll try to get one myself.. I see lots of uses. You get a 3d experience better than any cinema in naija.. Our 3d here sucks balls.. Also, i hear you can watch 2d movies on it too. Although I never tried it.. It's something you and friends can have fun with.. I like to watch movies while I work out (cardiovascular machines only) and this will probably enhance that experience sha.. 10 is a ridiculous price by the way. Any VR equipment over 5k is a rip off Keep in mind tho that this is Nigeria.. The climate here isn't that great for cardboard and such..Also, I don't think it's sanitary to share.. In my opinion it's better you get a plastic equivalent |
