Strap in—literally—because today, we’re diving headfirst into the world of virtual reality with the IRUSU VR headset. But here’s the twist: no hand controllers. Just the headset, a smartphone, and my two eyes doing all the work. Can a budget-friendly, mobile VR experience still feel immersive without the bells and whistles? Let’s find out.
In this video, I put the IRUSU headset through its paces—comfort, lens clarity, FOV, build quality, and of course, the actual fun of using it. If you’ve ever been curious about stepping into VR without spending hundreds of dollars on a Meta Quest or PCVR setup, this is the review for you.
No tech jargon overload here—this is a grounded, honest take from someone who enjoys tech, but still wants the experience to make sense for everyday users. I explore how well the headset works with different types of content: 360° YouTube videos, VR-compatible mobile games, virtual tours, and even a few cinematic experiences. Spoiler: some of them are surprisingly cool.
We also talk about what you can’t do without hand controllers (spoiler again: no Beat Saber, sadly), and whether this kind of VR is good for casual exploration or just ends up feeling gimmicky. If you’ve got a decent smartphone and a curious mind, the IRUSU headset might scratch that immersive itch—just don’t expect to be slicing blocks or throwing virtual punches.
