Speck today at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas has taken the wraps off of its foray into the virtual reality market. The popular accessory maker has unveiled the Pocket VR viewer, which features a collapsible design and is compatible with the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s. Speck touts that the viewer’s design is what sets it apart from the competition. The Pocket VR is compact and collapsible and is paired with the CandyShell Grip smartphone case, which offers military-grade protection. Speck says that when the viewer is opened, its lenses provide a “rich viewing experience for 3D concert, virtual retail, and augmented reality.” Yet, while closed, it’s flat and self-contained, making it easier to transport. Pocket VR is Google Carboard-certified and Speck has partnered with Jaunt, a well-known player in cinematic VR. “Combining Speck’s innovative designs and Jaunt’s world-class content, we’ve created the best possible virtual reality experience for everyday tech users,” said Miles Perkins, VP Marketing Communications at Jaunt. Speck’s Pocket VR will be available this spring for $69.95. Included in that price is the CandyShell Grip phone case. The main selling point of the Pocket VR is obviously it’s portability, but with the parneteship with Jaunt and being Google Cardboard-certified, the case seems like it will offer the most and some of the best virtual reality content we’ve seen to date.
