Description: Topfoison is a company that you might not have heard of, but they are one of the world’s leading LCD and OLED screen manufacturers. So what makes them what to jump onto the VR bandwagon? Well, whether we like to admit it or not, China has the ability to design, make, manufacture and sell a high-stats All-In-One VR headset at a fraction of the costs other countries like the USA could. So while Topfoison is busy making screens to be installed into everyone else’s VR headsets they might as well have a go at it themselves.

Review: The Topfoison Virtual Reality HMD is not as high in stats as you might have thought it would have been. With a basic 1440P screen and no movement tracking, it is down to the headsets built-in gyroscope to do all the motion tracking. Running Android 4.1, it can handle most VR cardboard apps. But sadly this also means it is not any more powerful than most mobile VR headsets. At the end of the day when you are paying just a few hundred for a VR headset with everything built into the unit you can’t expect much and that is exactly what the Topfoison Virtual Reality HMD offers.
