LG To Offer Google Cardboard VR Glasses With G3 Smartphone

LG To Offer Google Cardboard VR Glasses With G3 Smartphone

Smartphones Feb 9,2015 0

LG Electronics and Google are making virtual reality (VR) more accessible to mainstream users with a free VR for G3 giveaway for anyone who purchases a new LG G3 smartphone. LG’s VR for G3 works with Google Cardboard and enables G3 owners to experience a variety of VR-compatible apps and games that they can download on the Google Play store.

Unlike other head-mounted VR devices that are designed with their own processors and displays, VR for G3 takes advantage of the visual and sound capabilities of G3’s Quad HD display to offer a lighter solution.

VR for G3 features a design that leverages the G3’s signature Rear Key layout, compared to other smartphones where the volume rockers are located on the side of the phone. This design also means VR for G3 takes full advantage of the flagship phone’s 1W speaker with Boost AMP. For a more personal experience, VR for G3 can be combined with a Bluetooth headsets such as LG Tone Infinim for wireless enjoyment.

The design of VR for G3 is based on the blueprint for Google Cardboard, available online for home DIY fans. The neodymium ring magnet on the side of the VR for G3 works with the magnetic gyroscope sensor in the G3 to select applications and scroll through menus without touching the display. VR for G3 requires no assembly other than inserting the phone in the viewer.

"With Google Cardboard, we wanted to create more immersive and delightful experiences for anyone on their mobile devices," said Andrew Nartker, Product Manager for Google Cardboard.

The VR for G3 promotion will roll out this month in select markets. Purchasers of LG G3 buyers can also download a free VR game, Robobliteration, using the in-box QR code.
