ASUS VR headset spotted at Computex 2016

The big ASUS announcements at Computex 2016 in Taiwan revolve around the ZenFone and the ZenBook. But spotted on the showroom floor are VR headsets the Taiwanese brand didn’t even mention. It seems to be built to go against the Samsung Gear VR but it has a nicer leather strap reminiscent of the ZenWatch and shiny metal-like body. It’s said to be coming next year but not much is known about it. The VR headset is 5.7 inches wide diagonally and is speculated to fit the newly launched ZenFone 3 devices.

Like the Gear VR, it has a touchpad and buttons on the side. And as Gizmodo points out, it looks like ZTE’s own VR headset, which is being made with Google’s Daydream VR platform. We can’t help but wonder if this VR is being developed for said platform. We have to wait a while to find out more about this mysterious VR headset.
