With VR becoming more and more popular, cardboard VR kits like this one are a great first step to introducing people to the idea of virtual reality. It's not complicated to set up or use, and is simple enough that it can be passed around for friends and family to try.

The Habor cardboard VR headset is very easy to get started with. It's pre-built, so you just need to download any VR apps you might want to try, slip your phone in, and you're ready to begin. It has suction cups to keep your phone from sliding around (a key flaw that some cardboard VR kits suffer from), as well as a soft pad where your nose will sit to make it easy on your nose while using it. It also has a plastic forehead guard, which is just to keep sweat and oil from your skin from staining the kit after prolonged use. It's not something I would have thought of, but I do know that it's a common issue in the long-term, so the tape is a good idea.

The kit itself is very light and easy to wear for long periods of time, and I never felt like it was weighing my head down. It's also worth noting that this kit can be used with smartphones of all shape and size, which means it's easy to give as a gift.

The only real "flaw" with this kit has nothing to do with the product, but with the apps available, as developers are still coming up with new and interesting apps for VR. At the moment I found the options a bit limited, but that will improve over time.
