Is there such a thing as a 'better reality'?


I was very interested in trying on the Zeiss VR One. The only other experience I had with a VR device is the Google Cardboard VR. Of course the Zeiss VR One is far superior. The big reason are the Carl Zeiss lenses, made by one of the most respected optic companies in the world. The company says their VR One also uses much larger lenses than the competition. Here's a bit more from the company: With already hundreds of apps available on Google Play and AppleApp Store made for mobile VR devices you can simply download and launch the app, lock your smartphone in the VR ONE precision tray and slide it in the VR ONE. Experience VR games, videos, and amazing experiences that were never before possible. The effect is the equivalent of sitting in the best seat of a theatre, being on-stage at a performance with full 360 degree 3D video, and being able to enjoy gaming like never before - inside stunning worlds where imagination becomes reality. And now back to me. There is no adjustment of the lenses in the Zeiss VR ONE, but they can be used with eyeglasses on. That's what I did, with no problem at all. The VR ONE looks extra slick because you buy phone-specific smartphone trays that lock seamlessly inside the device. Trays for the iPhone 6 and Samsung Galaxy 5 are available now, but more on the on the way. Or you can actually 3D Print your ZEISS VR ONE tray for Samsung Galaxy S4 / S5 / S6, LG G3 or Google Nexus 5 if you like! Details and CAD downloads are on the company website. Cost is of the VR ONE is $120 without a smart phone tray, or $129.99 with one tray of your choice. Beware that on Amazon I'm seeing prices far above the suggested retail at some third party sites.
