Anyone care to recommend a 360 headset?

I have a 5.5 inch LG (steady, ladies) and looking at messing about with creating a few 360 videos. I have a really cheap headset which cost a tenner. It's flawed. Anyone any experience of what's a good place to start?

Oh God, this is a total disaster. Barry, please delete this thread and my account please.

I don't even know what the question means or what it has to do with your phone.

Fair point. You can house your smartphone in one of these and get that virtual reality experience:



You know those YouTube videos where you can look about? Well on your phone you'll see a little goggles icon down the bottom, it splits the video in two to work for these kind of 360 virtual headsets.

My mate got one when I saw him in China this summer, cost about twenty quid and was as good as my GearVR. There are loads and loads out there  though so I couldn't give you a recommendation. Sorry, I've been of little use but I suspect anything above Google Cardboard will be an advance.

Kinda looking for half decent one that can easily be used with headphones and all size screens. Plus the cheap ones are awkwar with no access to phone buttons.

I made a makeshift one using the stereoscopic lenses built into the case of Tool's 10,000 days.
