SAN FRANCISCO—Of all the products announced today at Google’s massive event, the Daydream View might be the best seller. At only $79, Daydream packs a “Good enough” controller and VR headset into a single box, allowing anyone with a brand new phone (for now only a brand new Google phone) to experience virtual reality. The Daydream opens up the Gear VR concept to the entire Android Ecosystem, with future Android devices expected to support the standard.

Regardless of sales, the Daydream View is definitely one of the cleverest devices at the event. It is full of interesting little touches that show off all the thought that went into this product.

Here’s an example: rather than plastic (or cardboard) the Daydream View is made of cloth. Besides a few plastic bits on the inside, the headset is made of thermo-bonded cloth material that is stiff enough to provide structure and dense enough to block out light. The advantage of cloth is that it’s super light—I couldn’t get an exact weight, but Google says the device is “30 percent lighter than similar devices on the market today.” Google probably means the Gear VR, which weighs 318g without a phone. Weight is extremely important for a VR headset—lighter devices are more comfortable, which lets you play longer without fatiguing.
