Some time ago he applied for Zhang Xiaoma's 50 millet VR (toy version) light public test qualifications, but unfortunately did not get the aunt of the aunt, 1823 people registered, the number is not a lot, actually did not smoke, but a good bit of luck by virtue of their own accumulation Million meters in the test obtained in the experience of eligibility.
Nowadays, the hottest word in the digital technology circle is probably none other than “VRâ€. After major manufacturers launched their own VR products, Xiaomi also launched its first VR product through this shareholder’s style – Xiaomi VR ( The toy version) is officially the first step to explore black technology. Although it is only a toy version of the VR field test, you can experience a VR to warm up. I have already unboxed and tried this product, and the paper wrapper inside was also torn by the child. The VR button was also broken, but it was repaired after I opened it, so this is a fake out of the box.
Attach the purchase address of the product, although it has not officially opened.
Unpack and walk.The box for this product is not a kraft paper package, nor is it a simple white package. Instead, it is a black box with a red “go to explore†on the front of the box. Does the black box represent Xiaomi's black technology?
In fact, the logo of Xiaomi was printed on the words “to exploreâ€, but this product was jointly produced by Xiaomi and its investment in the ecological chain company, Shanghai Chuangmi Technology Co., Ltd.
The back of the box is printed with the model number of the product and the simple precautions for use. Among the more important ones are: 1. Equipment requirements: Android 4.4 and above, 2. Screen 4.7-5.5 inches mobile phones (official website says 4.7-5.7) 3, VR consumption performance is high, may cause mobile phone fever, 4, when using, please ensure the safety of the surrounding environment, the body has gradually adapted to the VR and habits of the process, if there are symptoms such as dizziness, please suspend use, while avoiding long-term wear. 5, only children over the age of 13 to wear and use. In particular, the following three notes, it is excellent to explain to the user in advance.
With the Xiaomi VR, a letter from the Xiaomi Exploration Lab is attached. The general content is to hope that the user will join the public beta group after getting the product, so as to provide suggestions for product improvement. Millet's approach to improving products with broad customer opinions is indeed commendable. It is also hoped that the miui system will remove annoying ads. After all, many users on the Internet have made this suggestion.
Of course, in addition to that letter box is Xiaomi VR. The whole device uses a black Lycra fabric, which is lighter on the hand and less sleek by hand. According to Xiaomi's official website, it is said that the breathability is good, and long-time wear will not be boring. Black fabric is also more dirty, see the official website's introduction is that later will sell a lot of personality color, do not say, look at the map it, highlights is the second in the first row, if you put this on the head There really is a sense of sight on the flower head
In the middle of the black VR, the orange millet logo is printed in the middle, and VIRTUAL REALITY is printed below. It means virtual reality.
The whole millet VR is designed according to the human facial curve, can fit the face well when worn, and the general face can match, except for facial bones. The lens is covered with blue protective plastic to avoid scratching the lens during transportation and has been torn off by me. The official website says that the tolerance on the non-spherical arc of the lens used is at least 0.01 mm, which ensures the sharpness of the image.
“How to better accommodate mobile phones? We gave up the traditional stick-and-button design and chose the most classic invention in 100 years—the zipper. This innovation not only makes this product different, but also effectively takes into account the earphone hole position of different styles of mobile phones. Two birds with one stone." This is not my compilation, the official website says so.
There is an opening in the front, so that it can be easily adjusted to the mobile phone for ease of heat dissipation. This is easy to understand. If it is made completely closed, the phone would look hot on VR, and the phone would really be feverish.
In the upper right there is a metal thread button, the operation of VR is actually a "confirmation" button. Shortly after I had just arrived at the device, the button was pressed by my child to play it. Later, the piece of plastic with the lens was removed and reinstalled.
In fact, the metal thread button is integrated with the conductive silicone head in the middle. When the button is pressed into the mobile phone, the silicone head protrudes and touches the screen of the mobile phone to perform operations. No matter whether the mobile phone is filmed or not, it will not affect the operation.
Millet VR headbands are packaged in a flat carton and hidden inside the zipper surface. Between the headbands is a Velcro fixation and the length can be adjusted according to the size of the head shape. The role of the headband is to free your hands and you can see the film better.
There are instructions and tips printed on the back of the tray. To use the device, you must first scan the software. There are two small tips in the lower left corner, one is a health reminder: experience virtual reality may produce a similar feeling of motion sickness, depending on the physical condition as appropriate. The second is if you want to free your hands, you can wear a bandage. Yeah, you can watch movies better.
After unzipping, you will find that there is a sponge protection layer at the middle of the two front openings to protect the phone and prevent it from sliding.
There is a non-slip design that avoids the home button on the opposite side of the sponge protection layer, which is to add 4 non-slip rubber pads so that it is not easy to touch the home button and cause a false touch.
The internal table protruding from the figure is for placing the mobile phone, and the middle arrow is to align the center dividing line in the pattern with the arrow when using the device.
Tying the headband to the inside of the buckle is just like that. When the device is not in use, the headband can be pulled into the gap of the mobile phone for easy storage.
On the family portrait, these things are the contents of the black carton - Xiaomi VR, headbands, manuals, and letters for users.
When using the device, pull the zipper apart, align the phone on the desk, and close the zipper. My hand is the millet note phone, 5.7-inch mobile phone screen, just after you put it, if you use the 6-inch screen phone can not be placed.
When inserting the earphone, the inside mobile phone can be inserted from one side of the device through the gap between the two zipper heads. It can be seen from the above figure that the zipper-type design does not hinder the insertion of the earphone cable.
Experience, walk.If you want to install Xiaomi's own VR software, you need to scan the QR code on the black paper shell, click Download Now, and after the download is complete, install an icon for the millet VR toy version on the phone's desktop.
Click the icon to enter the program. There are videos and applications on the homepage of the Xiaomi VR program. My options are selectable. You can click to select the video to view it. The application needs to be downloaded and installed.

Selecting the video to click and playing will prompt to place the mobile phone in the VR. After placing it in the VR, please pay attention to align the vertical line in the middle of the video with the arrow on the VR desk. When you watch online video, it's more likely to be Karton, which may be the reason for the lower video resolution. The picture is not very clear.
If you are playing a video card, you can click the Download button on the right to download the video to the local player for playback. The above pictures are the ones that looked up, looked down, looked left, and looked right after wearing VR.
At present, there are few video sources in Xiaomi VR software, but you can download and install other VR software to watch videos such as Youku VR.
The above is the "Old Gun" movie in the virtual cinema. The video creates a sense of cinema.
If you don’t know which video to point to, the above picture appears...
I don't know what happened to these pictures again...
Did not look at it for more than a moment, the above picture appeared, and the phone reached 45°C...
CommentFor the first time using VR, the feeling is very novel, very dreamy, there is a kind of wonderful feeling, especially for otaku.
Millet VR is still comfortable to wear, without any discomfort, although I did not wear for a long time, did not appear dizzy for a while, nausea, do not know if long time will not be dizzy.
The following four issues were summarized during use:
Millet VR has a lot of heat during use. This is mentioned in the precautions, and it is inevitable that mobile phones will lose power quickly.
Obviously the picture is blurred when watching 1080p video, and video with higher resolution can be better.
The metal keys in the upper right corner of this Xiaomi VR in my hand are not very firm and I don't know if it is an example.
There are too few video sources in Xiaomi VR software, and it may increase in the future.
The current price of this millet VR has already come out, and it was 49 yuan as the previous online exposure, and it was sold on August 30. As for buying or not buying, or take your own idea.
