We called into carphone warehouse earlier to pick up our son's handset upgrade and they were selling VR headsets as a "black tag" deal reduced from £25 to £12.49. "Gogi" branded, not a brad I've ever heard of, so I'm not sure what they'll be like. Their system was down so they couldn't give a receipt. But Hey! What do you get for £12.49 nowadays?

The Gadget Show tested a few of these headsets the other night and had software made up to give a horror film like VR experience to the presenter who was shrieking and sweating during the "event".
The cheapest ones at £6.99 beat all the dearer ones except the Samsung VR headset and it very nearly beat that too.
It'll be on Catchup TV.

Do you mean "Home Bargains" or "B&M"? Have you proof of this?

Not all vr headsets are created equal. I've had a £40 one and a gear vr and the £40 one was absolutely dreadful. Can't imagine cheaper oneso being any better. With vr it's all in the quality of the optics and light bleed. Everything else like fov beyond 90 degrees is a nice to have. But poor quality optics and the whole thing is a headache inducing blurry mess

I can just imagine that harridan Alex Jones demoing one of these. How she ever got a job, never mind one on television, is beyond me.
