There’s nothing wrong with a good old-fashioned escape. Some people use books, some people walk around watching all of Westworld during the day, and of course we all know someone who gets sucked into the game for a while. The key to any successful rescue is feeling immersed in the world you’re looking at, and this is one of the things you’ll find much easier to do in VR.
This past year has been filled with all sorts of VR headsets, and choosing the right headset has become a daunting task for you. It’s even harder if you want to give virtual reality as a gift. This guide will make it a little easier, ultimately making it so you can make the best gift this year!
Samsung Gear VR — For Samsung Fan
Is there someone in your life who is always ready to jump on the next Samsung phone? Someone who sees Lil Jon pouring champagne on his phone and saying «why not me?» checking how long to wait for the next update? There’s a good chance you’ll spend a whole year with a Gear VR headset.

You’ll find a wide range of games, apps and lots of videos to watch. It’s like taking your living room with you everywhere, and when paired with the right gamepad, this headset turns into a killer gaming experience.

Google Daydream — for those who love to share
Not all VR headsets require complex PC settings. In fact, if you know someone with a Google Pixel 2 or Note 8, they already have just about everything they need to have a great VR experience that travels with them! The only thing missing is a Google Daydream View headset, which also makes a fantastic gift.
Check out our Google Daydream Review!
Daydream View comes in three gorgeous colors and includes a controller that makes every VR experience completely unique. This allows the user to move their hands in the real world and see the controller move in virtual reality, so they can solve puzzles and navigate with amazing realism. Just don’t let anyone accidentally walk into any walls and it’s a great time to easily share with your friends wherever you are!
