The JioDive VR headset is only available to Jio customers and is compatible with Android and iOS. However, it contains a condition requiring mobile phones to be around 4.7 and 6.7 inches in size, and it works with Android 9+ and iOS 15+.
It is exclusively available in black. It has lenses that can be adjusted using center and side wheels for clearer vision and more optical comfort. It uses a smartphone's gyroscope and accelerometer, and users must install the JioImmerse app.

It incorporates a three-way flexible strap, a ventilated face cushion for extended, comfortable use, and a click button for browsing the user interface while wearing the headset. It positions two lenses before the phone's screen to create a 3D effect.
How to set up Reliance JioDive VR headset?
After buying the Reliance JioDive VR headset from JioMart, scan the QR code on the package and install the JioImmerse application on your mobile device. Allow access to all permissions and connect with the Jio Network.
Go to the "JioDive" tab and click "Watch on JioDive." Now, open the front cover, insert the device among the support clip and the lenses in JioDive, shut the front cover, and put on the JioDive headset, adjusting the straps to fit properly on your head.
Use the center and side wheels to fine-tune the picture quality for the optimal viewing experience. Apart from binge-watching IPL, you can also use JioDive to access other VR content and play games, but you will need a Jio 4G, 5G, or JioFiber network to access the JioImmerse app.
Top VR headsets to watch out for in 2023
If you want to increase your watching experience with a VR headset, here are some top suggestions to help you sort through your options and stock your device shelf!
Meta Quest 2: The Meta Quest 2 is the most adaptable VR headgear, requiring no gaming console, mobile device, or PC, and "it is affordable" compared to its features. It starts at $299 and goes up to $500, depending on the storage required.

Meta Quest Pro: The Meta Quest Pro includes the same apps and functionality as Quest 2 and can be used as a PC-connected headset. It is not optimized for people's professional requirements, but it has a higher display quality and lens sharpness than the $999 Quest 2.
Question, does anyone here have the meta quest pro and is it worth getting?

I’m still looking into HTC vive pro but this looks like it’s doing pretty well for you guys with full body and face tracking? pic.twitter.com/yeTWo7OfIf
HTC Vive XR Lite: The HTC Vive XR Lite headset is a one-of-a-kind pair of PC-compatible glasses; however, its software lags behind Meta's standalone applications and costs more than $1055.
HP Reverb G2:The HP Reverb G2 is the best VR headset for gaming, with a 160x2 resolution and 114-degree field of view angle costing $449. It is technically a Microsoft Windows-based reality headgear with an over-ear speaker and built-in camera-based room tracking.

Virtual reality is thinning and creating a far better immersive experience that feels close to the material world. If you want to spruce up your collection, the above headgears are exactly what you need!
