User friendly, comfortable VR experience.
Having come from a VR background of having only used Google Cardboard and a standard VIVE VR setup, I highly recommend this. Comfort wise it's so much better than Cardboard, maybe even the VIVE, especially not having to deal with the cables. The Daydream View is plush, it's not only very comfortable on the face and easy to adjust its also very nice looking and feeling in general. Very easy to pop the phone in, secure it, grab the remote, put it on and your ready to go. As a VR headset it is comparable to a VIVE experience. No latency or tracking issues. The remote works great and the interface is very user friendly. You can use VR specific apps that give you 180 or 360 experience. Its got a video and photo viewer that accesses your Google photos directly and an interface for using a web browser. This is all running the first model Google Pixel (5") Really the only reason now I would use my VIVE instead of this is if I was going to use it for a game that a mobile device doesn't support -or- if I am going to use it for an extended period of time. I used it for maybe a half hour and the phone indicated it needed to cool down. So you could probably make it through an episode but probably not a full movie in one sitting. (more recent models of the Pixel or other phones may not be so much of an issue, but VR is taxing) Pair this with a set of earbuds or Bluetooth earbuds for a complete wireless VR experience.
