The DESTEK V4 VR headset is a solid, robust virtual reality headset, perfect for anyone looking to give Virtual Reality a go. It is a fantastic price and it comes as no surprise that it is one of the best selling VR headsets on Amazon.
Design:
As with most cheap VR headsets they are mostly made from plastic and although the V4 is no different it feels durable with a solid design. I’ve tried several VR goggles in this price range and they all felt flimsy and uncomfortable. This is where the DESKTEK V4 beats it’s competition.
The headset is covered in a comfortable leather padding, which feels comfortable and lightweight when wearing for long periods. The head strap can also be adjusted to fit heads of all shapes and sizes and prevent the strap from touching your ears while also relieving pressure around your nose.
Inside the DESTEK V4 VR headset box, you will find a head strap and a head top strap. There is also a lens cleaning cloth. The top of the headset has a distance adjuster, and there is a pupil distance adjuster underneath.
The headset has two HD lenses with an anti-blue light coating, which reflects blue light to protect your eyes. It offers a 103 degrees field of view, which lets you experience a more immersive world of virtual reality. A wider FOV would deliver a better immersive experience, but in order to do this the headset would have to have a larger diameter lens.
My favourite feature of this headset is the removable, magnetic front panel. This allows you to use the headset for AR apps that require that your phone’s camera be exposed.
Compatible With:
DESTEK V4’s is designed such that you can adjust it to three optimum positions to fit your smartphone. The VR headset is compatible with a wide range of Android and iOS smartphones with screen sizes between 4.5-inch and 6-inch. You can use it with the iPhone Xs/Xs Max/XR/X/8/7/6s/6/6 plus, Samsung S9/S8/S8 Plus/S7/S7 Edge/S6/S6 Edge Note 9/8/5/4/3, LG g6 g5 g4 g3 v20, and Daydream phones like Google Pixel/Pixel XL, Samsung s8/s8 plus, Moto Z/Z Force, Huawei Mate 9 Pro, etc.
Overall:
Overall a good solid design, that is comfortable to wear and easy to adjust to fit your head. Unlike some VR goggles we’ve tested this one does not steam up or overheat your device when playing on mobile VR apps. There is not remote included in the basic package, however they do bundle them with remotes or you can purchase one separately.
