The outlook: Google announced Daydream at its I/O developer conference this past June. Daydream isn't one headset, but rather a platform for phones running Android Nougat. Samsung, HTC, LG, Huawei, Alcatel, ZTE, Xiaomi and Asus have all signed up to produce Daydream-ready phones. Meanwhile, Netflix, Hulu, HBO, Imax, MLB, NBA, CNN, The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal, as well as Ubisoft and Electronic Arts have all voiced support. There's still a lot we don't know, but we are excited.
