I created my own cheap VR headset using this phone and glasses combo

I bought a Samsung Galaxy XR headset shortly after its launch, and I learned a lot about how I actually use VR during my time with that device. In the process, I found that there's a cheaper way to do much of what I use the headset for most oftenβ€”one that's also far more comfortable and more portable. All you need is the right kit.
