On Monday, Xiaomi launched its entry-level VR (virtual reality) headset Mi VR Play and live-streaming Mi Live app in India. The VR headset is compatible with phones sized between 4.7-inch to 5.5-inch.
The Rs 999 Mi VR Play is a lightweight device that is certified to work with Google Cardboard apps. Interestingly, Google’s very own Daydream VR isn’t coming to India anytime soon.
