Royole-X Virtual Mobile Theater for Cinematic Movie Watching and Immersive Gaming Experiences (Red)

This is a review for the Royole-X mobile theater. I saw this on some online article ever since it was announced at CES 2016, which piqued my interested and I took the plunge after seeing all the positive reports. I received this in the mail a few weeks ago and have been using it quite extensively since then, including on a trip to Hawaii.The Royole-X is an interesting consumer electronics product. It is a highly personalized, and takes a little bit of fiddling to get the eye-piece to fit intimately over your face - you have to make sure that the headband is not too long or too short. If you do everything correctly, you wouldnt feel the weight of it at all on your nose or on your face - all the weight should fall on top of your head. This means that if someone else wants to use it, they'd have to take some time to adjust it, which is fine with me, because I don't intend to share it with anyone else anyway. Like I said, this is a highly personal piece of equipment.I must admit, at first I was a little skeptical about putting OLED displays right in front of my face. I'm a tech junkie so I've tried a bunch of different VR/AR products such as Oculus and Avegant Glyph, and they've always given me headaches and made me feel super uncomfortable. But the Royole-X is something different: I took it with me on a 5 hr plane trip to Hawaii and watched two movies and not once did I feel my eyes hurting or dizzy. The manufacturer put in a lot of effort into designing the Royole-X for optimal viewing experience and ergonomics, and the result really shows. It's not just the OLED display, but also the way they've designed the headband, the eyepiece, everything. Some similar products I've tried have this nose-bridge that sits right on top of your nose (like what you'd see on a pair of glasses, which is what the Glyph uses) and it's super heavy and super uncomfortable. I believe the way Royole-X uses a piece of cushion to sit on top of your face is the best possible way of achieving comfort in near-eye displays.The display itself is phenomenal. It's a very super high quality AMOLED display and the colors are incredible. I saw some review below complaining it's a little small, I think it's just about the right size. It's about as big as going into the movie theaters and sitting in the back rows - just the way I like it. Again, to each his/her own.I also cannot speak enough good words about the sound quality. These are really high quality and high fidelity headphones that comes with the Royole-X, and comparable to a lot of the audiophile-grade headphones I've owned from like Sennheiser and such.The product comes with 16GB internal storage - something I havent had much of a chance to make use of. I prefer to download movies from like iTunes and stuff and watch on my Apple device, so I usually make use of an HDMI adapter and connect straight into the Royole-X's HDMI jack. The manual claims to support several different connectivity options which I will probably get around to checking out in the near future.In summary: this is the best solution for watching movies on the go, especially on long plane rides. And the best part: those pesky next-seat neighbors on my flight would never be able to spy on what I am watching ever again.

For the price point, I was expecting a lot more. Save your money and get an Oculus Rift or Vive. I had high hopes for this product but couldn't be any more disappointed.Firstly, as someone else had pointed out in a review in the "black" version.... the experience feels as if you're sitting in the back row of a movie theater. Nothing immersive about it. Terrible.Secondly, the item I received was missing parts including the manual and was absolutely a return. Not only was it missing components, the film that protects the glasses had been removed and was stuck to the bottom of the box!Allegedly, this has media cast features. I spent hours trying to get it to work with my iPhone but was not possible. It could be that I missed a step somewhere (possible, but how would I know without a manual). I have an iPhone from which I was trying to stream. It did not detect the Royole-X... but easily streamed to my jailbroken iPad with running Kodi.Thirdly, I don't believe this has a head tracker.... it doesn't describe it in the prod specs.. but for $700 it better damn have it.I connected my macbook hdmi out into the headset which worked. But the screen is so tiny hardly anything is legible.I will say the sound and picture quality are superb... the image quality does not make up for the tiny screen. Build is great and so are the aesthetics.I am returning mine... quite sure I got the return that the reviewer of the black version who mentioned buying the "red" version and returning it.

i got the device about 2 weeks ago and took it with me for a trip to hong kong. i will have to say the sound is amazing with this device. compared with all the other display headsets, the way that royole-x integrates the audio is impressive. truly perfect for air travel. it does feel like an escape, let me forgot i was on a plane for a moment. managed to watch three tv shows preloaded to the device during one flight and it still got close to half of the power left. the carrier bag and small case for charger is quite stylish and handy. on the wishlist, i would say it could have been even more compact. image is definitely sharp and crisp, which is good, it is amoled after all, personally i just wish it could be larger too. also, would be nice to have app store available, so the choices could be more. overall, pleased with the device.

I ordered red color, cool gift choice for holiday season. The design looks edgy. It arrived with a leather case (looks like a hatbox), which is very cute and convenient to carry. Its resolution and sound were both excellent. It is also adjustable for people who are shortsighted, so that you don't have to wear glasses while watching. The screen can be a bit bigger. However, it's designed for people to watch 2 movies in a row, so that you won't feel dizzy after wearing it for hours. Great entertainment tool to kill some time on the road.

Like many others, I was interested to test out the immersive screen and sound experience. Unfortunately, the former was disappointing and did not live up to the hype. Sound quality was great but it's pretty pointless to have it without being able to enjoy watching the movie.The build quality was fine. I had some trouble adjusting the lens. The lens also fogged up regularly (likely due to incorrectly positioning).

Have been using it for a while. I have fun with it. Not perfect but the only one available in the market. It's good to bring it along on vacation. Anyway it's much better than the small screen on planes.
