LG's Google Cardboard spin-off lets new G3 phone owners enter virtual reality for the sweet price of $0.

LG's VR for G3

Not to be outdone by Samsung, LG is giving away a Google-Cardboard-based VR headset for G3 customers.

The G3 slots neatly into the VR headset, leveraging the incredibly sharp Quad HD LCD of the G3 for even clearer VR.

Inside you can see convex lenses that look indistinguishable from the lenses in Google's Cardboard.

The VR for G3 is based on Google's Cardboard VR headset. Note the nearly identical switch on the side of the headset.

With LG's signature rear keys, the G3 can slot in snugly without obstructing access to the Volume and Power buttons.

The VR for G3 breaks down into three parts that fit together for maximum portability.
