Devices and accessories virtual reality developed by leaps and bounds, although the mobile sphere is more and more variations on Cardboard. Against the background of the product seriously distinguished French company Homido.

The remaining elements of the device are quite standard and are designed for easy use of the headset on your head. Thus Homido V2 not cheap. The manufacturer is asking for your child $ 80. It may not be the highest price on the market, but the majority of variations Cardboard is markedly different in a big way.
