The Daydream View is a pretty decent headset, but to make it work you need content (and a phone that supports it, but I digress). Google has announced a sale on some quality Daydream View titles to get you into VR and hopefully using it more.
There’s six Daydream View compatible titles on-sale in Google Play at up to 50% off, or in the case of one game, reduced to Free! and you can’t beat free right? The sale runs from December 7th until December 14th so get in fast. The games included in the sale are :

How often do Google update their list of daydream vr compatible phones? I’m thinking of getting the huawei mate 10 pro which isn’t compatible but equals at least the specs of the pixel 2 which is compatible?
