Hamswan Virtual Reality Headset
Hamswan make a whole range of gadgets and gizmo’s and they have asked me to review these Virtual Reality Glasses. I’d seen them around, but to be honest I have never used this type of technology before, but thought it would be fun to try. Boy was I right!
Granddad Al is into sci-fi, which I don’t mind, but when you’ve watch all the Star Trek series and all the Stargate series, there’s only so much you can take, so I tried these out whilst he was watching Andromeda the Dylan Hunt series. I wanted to catch up on some BBC programmes that I had missed so I put the BBC iPlayer on my phone and popped it into the front of the headset.
It’s so easy to set up! You can adjust the distance from your eyes to get it in focus and the eye width too, with a quick turn of a couple of wheels on the top of the glasses then I was set to go.
Their is a good amount of leather padding around the face and on the ears. Then with an adjustable strap that goes on your head. I found it a really comfortable fit whilst I was wearing it. I was worried it was going to be a bit heavy but it was fine they are really lightweight.
The controls are under the base of the headset so easily to find and use. I can see why those who play the computer games love wearing these as you feel immersed into the programme you are watching or the game you are playing. It’s a totally different feeling than sitting down watching it on TV.

These are so cool – the boys have a pair – I’ve used them myself
This looks good. Can’t believe how quickly technology moves nowadays and VR seems to be developing faster than most things at present.
Thank you for this article.
This sounds like a lot of fun! Thanks for the review.
I always remember seeing a guy on TV wearing a VR headset – he fell over when he went to lean against a virtual table! lol
Something to be careful of…
