Google’s Daydream View VR headset launches November 10

Google’s first step toward making high-quality mobile VR mainstream is coming soon.

The Daydream View virtual reality headset, which works by holding phones that meet the Daydream standard up to your face, launches November 10. Google published a blog today reiterating some of the major points about the wearable device that turns Google Pixel phones (and other future handsets) into head-mounted displays. View is $70, and Google made it with a cloth that it claims is comfortable and breathable. It will go on sale at Verizon stores and Best Buy in the United States, and it comes with a motion-controlled wand device that enables you to bring one hand into simulations. VR could generate as much as $40 billion in revenues by 2020, according to analysts with research firm SuperData. And mobile VR is one of the major pillars of that forecast.
