To put this in perspective...
Asking what's the difference between VR for $35 and VR for $300 is like asking what's the difference between a $20 modern re-release of a Tiger Electronics portable game (in case you are wondering, yes, someone re-released those abominations this decade) and a $300 Nintendo Switch. THERE IS A HUGE DIFFERENCE between a modern day $20 Tiger portable and a $300 Nintendo Switch!!!!

I own THREE VR headsets...

1) PS VR (which is mid-tier in quality)

2) HP Reverb G2 Windows Mixed Reality VR headset for PC (which is extremely high in quality).

3) Google Cardboard (which fucking SUCKS!!! It sucks ASS!!!)

With that said, yes, there is a HUGE difference between the cheap ass "VR" for $35 like Google Cardboard and mid-tier VR headsets like PS VR and especially high end VR headsets for PC.

Long story short, with Google Cardboard, which is literally fucking CARDBOARD, You put your cellphone into fucking CARDBOARD!!! Aside from being embarrassing, the quality of what you are seeing sucks ass compared to an actual real VR headset (for the PC VR headset I own, everything looks real and lifelike to the point where you feel like everything you are seeing is happening for real, unlike the shit Google cardboard where even in "VR" mode you still feel like you have a cellphone wrapped in cardboard strapped to your face and nothing feels real.

The old saying "You get what you pay for" applies here.
So yes, there is a HUGE difference between $35 VR and $300 VR.

Hp Reverb G2:
2,160 x 2,160 on each eye with 4K dedicated VR technology paired with high end PCs designed to create the most immersive and real VR experience possible.

PS VR.
960 x 1080 on each eye with 1080p dedicated VR technology paired with Playstation 4 which despite releasing during 2016 it's still designed to create an immersive experience and some of it's games (the really good ones) will make you believe that you are really in their world.

Google Cardboard...
Google fucking cardboard...
It's fucking cardboard attached to your face. You put a cellphone (which is NOT dedicated VR technology) inside the fucking cardboard... cheap ass $1 cardboard which they charge $20 to $35 for... if you have cardboard lying around you could probably make this shit yourself and that will save you $35... and when you put the fucking cardboard on your face you hope the cardboard doesn't give you a paper cut as you see horribly attempted VR which isn't true VR.... and you hope the cardboard doesn't fucking break apart and your phone falls out and smashes to the ground.
It's fucking terrible.
And you hope no one passes by and asks you why the fuck you have a cardboard box on your face...
