VR seems to be a popular trend and Google is showing that they are going with the flow in my personal opinion.

AMD Ryzen 9 7950X,  Corsair Mp700 Pro M.2, 64GB Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5  X670E Steel Legend, MSI RTX 4090 Associate Code: H5U80QBH6BH0AXF. I am NOT an employee of EVGA

    Looks exactly like google cardboard except it's plastic. Judging by the picture, it looks like they will be using the same size lenses which is the biggest let down. The field of view is very small. They need to use a fresnel convex lens that are bigger.

    Uh Google, hello? Have you forgotten about your Google Glasses project or did you silently end it? This'll end up like that project anyways. Forgotten over time.
