Just in case you slept through all of 2015, let us catch you up to speed: Donald Trump is running for president, there’s a new Star Wars movie, and virtual reality is blowing up. While more sophisticated systems like the one being developed by Oculus are very cool, they’re also quite pricey. If you want to experience virtual reality without making a major investment though, there are now some very good options out there for you — and one of the best is the Merge VR – Virtual Reality Headset for iPhone and Android.
