Opto – Virtual Reality for the living room

$89 USD

By Michael

Editor's Rating:

The first portable VR headset with built-in audio. An all-in-one device to enjoy movies, games, photos & more! We are making high-quality VR accessible for anyone who owns a smartphone. With Opto, VR is finally moving from the gaming den to the living room. VR content is growing and expanding beyond just games, with documentaries, music videos, Netflix, movies and more now available for VR. Current VR headsets are not designed with this in mind, they are bulky, heavy, have lots of wires and require you to plug in additional headphones. This is where Opto comes in, its lightweight all-in-one design lets you jump in and out of VR when you want – so sitting on the sofa to watch a movie feels natural.

Hi, I am not sure if you saw our update I posted: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/opto/opto-virtual-reality-for-the-living-room/posts/1908289 - We only shipped a small amount so you wont have received yours yet. More are arriving this week and I will be posting a further update on when you will receive yours. Regards, Richard

Just curious, what's the update with the app? Has it been released? Does anyone know? I haven't been keeping up with the comments lately so if they mentioned anything about it please let me know. Thanks in advance.

I'm just wondering if I will have them by the end of June? I'm backer 187 of 450 and live in London.

Still waiting for a shipping schedule mate. This was the first ever project I backed on KS, and the most delayed one. You guys do remember that it has been over a year since you launched the campaign? Even though the product might be brilliant, it has been marred by these massive delays which has impacted your time to market, taking away the USP on which you could have capitalised.

Review from Kickstarter

Hi everyone, sorry for the few days of silence, I have been dealing with the factory over the weekend as we have had some issues to resolve but things are back on track with the mass production now. The next batch is being dispatched tomorrow so we hope to continue with the delivery of units from later next week once these arrive. I am also going receive a full schedule with timing from the factory so we know when each batch will be arriving, once I receive that I will post a clear update with timing for shipping for everyone so it's clear.

Hi Helen, yes I just replied.

Review from Kickstarter

Hi i have replied the other day to your message you sent me. Have you seen it? Thanks

Opto

Review from Kickstarter

Hi everyone, sorry yes I realise you need firm timing. The are coming in several batches. We sent out the first batch but had issues with the delivery of the second and third being delayed and now we are behind schedule. I am agreeing firm dates with the factory at the moment - I wanted to post an update with specific dates so please bear with me a couple of days and I will confirm.

Manuel Freire de Andrade

Review from Kickstarter

Hey Guys, I agree with George Georgiou, I am backer 112 and still nothing, and now information disclosure is becoming pretty vague. We support you guys but you have to keep us well informed and on track with all you're doing. At the moment I have no idea when to expect my Opto and answering "you'll have it soon" really does not help.

George Georgiou

Review from Kickstarter

Guys I'm a bit puzzled. You made the despatch on the 11th of May and you still haven't dispatched the rest. How many do you dispatch in a day. I'm backer 187 and live in London and as yet haven't received anything. I was really hoping to give one of my headsets as a present but it looks like that ship has sailed. Will we be getting them anytime soon?

Opto

Review from Kickstarter

Hi Andrea, Sorry yes we were aiming for that and already shipped out the first batch, however we have had a few issues with other batches we received from the factory which has caused some delays. I will be posting an update about this soon so it's clear, but we are working right now on sending them all out as quick as we can!

Andrea Jones

Review from Kickstarter

Opto

Hi Helen - yes you will have it before that!

Helen F

Review from Kickstarter

Opto

Review from Kickstarter

Hi yes we are sending out in batches as we receive them from the factory, we are aiming to have them all out by the end of May, you should receive a notification once it's shipped. thanks

I too would like to know when we will recieve our opto. It was an Xmas gift for my hubby so getting embarrassing now. Please can we getba progress report?

George Georgiou

Review from Kickstarter

Come on guys its been over a year. I've been patient up to now but starting to worry that by the time you guys get these goggles to us the phones we are using will be out of date and hate to say it but with the amount of new tech inventions every day so will the goggles. Lets hope I don't need to worry and we receive them by the end of April Hopefully.

Opto

Review from Kickstarter

We are working on an iphone 7 compatible front cover so you will be fine, I will post more details on this once we are ready

Hi. Any update as to when we can expect out goggles?

Opto

Review from Kickstarter

Hi Ebrahim, I believe that the screen on that phone might be to large, we currently support up to 5.5/5.7 inches, I believe that one is 6.4 inches.

Ebrahim Al-Bishri
