Huawei VR

Huawei is getting into VR. It's introducing a virtual reality headset, called Huawei VR, that works with its new flagship smartphone, the P9 and it works the same way as the Samsung Gear VR :
you insert a phone into the front of it, strap it on, and you've got a basic but functional VR headset. Engadget reports that Huawei will sell versions that work with both sizes of the P9 and with the Mate 8.
Although the Huawei VR is very similar and basic like the Gear VR, the two headsets will not go head to head. The latest Huawei offering will highly likely be available in the Chinese market only, and it remains unclear if the headset will be officially launched in other regions later.
However, the Samsung headset is targeted at the U.S., European and South Korean markets. The Gear VR may possibly reach other markets as well.
The Gear VR has a price tag of $99 in the U.S. and it is available for about Euro 100 in some parts of Europe. Huawei, however, has not revealed the price or availability of the Huawei VR.
The Huawei VR will come with 4,000 videos and 40 games that you can watch and play for free, according to Engadget. It'll also include a few hundred panoramic images and tours. It's not stated where the content is coming from or what content sources owners will be able to access, so there are certainly still some big questions left about how this headset will actually compare to something like the Gear VR, which has developers on board making games for it.
The Chinese company did not reveal the source of the content or how they can access the VR content.
VR is the next big thing in the technology industry. VR headsets are slowly but steadily gaining popularity, and many companies such as Sony, HTC, Oculus and more have announced their headmounts, which can be used for playing games or watching VR content.
The International Data Corporation estimates a massive growth in the VR industry in 2016 and in the coming years. Digi-Capital, a market research firm, predicts that the VR market will be worth about $30 billion by 2020, which reflects the growth potential of VR headsets.
Although the Huawei VR may initially be available in China only, the company could still launch the headmount in other markets in the near term.
P8,P8lite,Nexus 6P,G8,G7 Plus,Honor 7,Honor 6 are compatible with the Huawei VR.
