Folks,
Just wanted to start a thread about the topic of our Daydream View causing our phones (Pixel or otherwise) to overheat. While this may be less of an issue than the GearVR, this tips in this blog ARE still valid for our phones and for our device....
How to deal with Gear VR overheating | VRHeads
I would also like to add a few tips of my own....
1. Take frequent breaks, and take out your phone from the unit and let it cool down. This also gives your system a break and helps to prevent the side effects some people experience from VR, nausea, disorientation dizziness, etc
2. Use a cooling gel pack to help disperse heat. These can be found in drug stores, home stores and super markets, and are used primarily for health, for headaches, and muscle aches. While you CAN freeze the pack, this may not be necessary, as even a room temp pack will disperse heat.
3. Please the phone in front of a slow moving fan.
- Please give us your own tips!
