Ah ok thank you! But does the Moto g 3 work on it? :)

I have the Google Cardboard. I tried it in on the Moto G 3 here what I can tell:

Only about 1/4 of the content actually works, pretty much all high quality VR content requires the gyroscope.

You can watch videos and even play a few games but its very hard to find them. The Google Play Store says any VR app is not compatible with your device, you need to download their APK from somewhere else to install and try the Game, and most of the times it will just crash for the lacking gyro.

Resuming: the Moto G is not really a VR Device, only with tricks and it is still not a decent experience.

I am testing an Xposed module which is VirtualSensor, It uses the accelerometer and the compass to emulate the gyroscope. I don't have any VR headset yet, but it has been working pretty well on 360° videos, and in StreetView, as well with a testing app which has a few games. By the way, it's not working in every single app which requires gyroscope, but I guess the developer is doing his/her best to make it the most efficient as possible.

If anybody here has a VR headset, try it! :)
