LG is diving into VR with its own headset

LG is diving into VR with its own headset ,At the Mobile World Congress trade show in Barcelona today, LG revealed its new 360 VR headset. The device features a hands-free and foldable design, but it only works with the company’s new G5 phone.LG says its headset weighs only 118g, which is roughly a third as heavy as the Samsung Gear VR. Plus, it doesn’t require you to slot your phone into it like other headsets — it has a dedicated cable so you can leave your handset in your pocket while watching VR content.
