Tbh, I don't know that so much about Google Cardboard, But I got a few dollars to spend and I was thinking why not on Google Cardboard just to have it.

Looking around, I see that other manufacturers are making their own versions from Google, but I can't ever seem to find the actual version by Google that I see in videos. I probably presume that it would be a thing made by Google just to give to reviewers. If this isn't a real thing, can someone link me a good model, one of the new ones announced at I/o 2015? I have a LG G4, which is a 5.5" screen.

Thanks.

Choose your design, they will send it to you with instructions in how to fold it.

I splurged and got the 2.0+ Viewer from UnofficialCardboard.com It is BY FAR the best $20 I have ever spent. The look on everyones faces when they try on the headset for the first time. And the growing number of games developed and support by the Cardboard is fantastic. Definitely recommend!!! I would recommend throwing an extra $5 in and buying the optional headstrap. Would be handy for some experiences and for long term use as your arms definitely get tired.

 

tldr: Buy It.

kden, thanks guys for clearing it up. I think I want to get this (http://www.imcardboard.com/cardboard-v2-0/i-am-cardboardr-vr-cardboard-kit-without-nfc.html), seems to fit just fine. There's another one but it seems exactly the same.
