Picture in picture for life.

Vufine is the best thing I've ever kickstarted. Hands down, and I've backed a lot(too many, to hear my wife tell it.) One thing I suggest is to pop the lenses out of the included glasses. They reflected light from the overheard lights in some of the places I used this, and prevented me from positioning the display close enough to my eye for it to really look good. Viewing video works great. I watch netflix, local videos from an iPod, and video from a laptop with HDMI out. I've also build mounts for two different headphones (over-ear) so I don't have to use the glasses at all. That works a bit better. I pretty much never run the vufine without the charging cable also, so I can't speak to battery life, but 3 wires isn't too much worse than 1(for just my headphones). I wrapped them all in a cable sheath so they stay together and don't get individually snagged on anything. I also use the vufine to bring up UI specifications for testing, and being able to see it in an overlay on whats on my computer monitor is phenomenal. previously I'd have to turn my head left to right and try to match the spec on one monitor to the application on the other, but this is much much easier. Traveling my airplane, the vufine was a tremendously helpful device. Again I used it on just headphones(no glasses) and was able to relax(insofar as thats possible in coach seats) without having to either hold my phone up at an awkward angle or crane my head to see it set on the tray table in front of me. That time I did run on battery for about an hour and 15 min before they started serving beverages, so I got out my laptop and charged the vufine and my phone, both of which lasted for the rest of the flight. The vufine plus has a zoom display mode which makes reading text easier, but I had no trouble reading normal sized text on this display. Take that with a grain of salt though, I have 20/15 vision, so I can ready much smaller text than most people. I used twisted aviation safety wire wrapped around charging and HDMI cables to route them over the top of my headset to the left side, where the headphone signal and trackIR cables were already exiting. If you want picture-in-picture for your life, this does it. Its the best.

Perfect for Pokémon GO and more!

Get the Vufine, it's amazing. Uses: I originally started using the screen to play Pokémon GO and stream it online. It works great! I can see what's happening in the game while walking around normally. I'm not staring down at my phone while walking, I'm just walking naturally and the screen is "floating" right in front of my eye. I can't stress enough how this makes the game feel more engaging, and safer too. I can actually take in my surroundings while playing the game. Another great use I found was fantasy sports. While watching a game on TV I can use the Vufine to monitor scores and chat with other players. I've done this in the past with my phone by itself, but it's just more immersive when you don't have to take your eyes off the game to look at it. I haven't taken it to a real game yet, but I definitely plan to. Then I won't be that guy who catches a foul-ball with his face because he was staring down at his phone... I'm sure there are a million other uses. Maybe maps, other games, videos, work-related documents, etc... That's how I use it though, and it works perfectly. Feel: It's light and easy to wear. Really, I can't even notice it anymore on my glasses. It came with it's own pair of non-prescription glasses, but sometimes I use it on my own glasses too and it fits fine. The screen itself is placed well. I was worried I might feel sick using it, kinda like with VR and Cardboard, but nothing like that happened. The screen is actually recessed a little which I liked because it feels just far enough that it doesn't block your sight, but close enough to see the details. Tip: Make sure your phone is compatible with the screen. It's not something that the Vufine has wrong with it, it's just an HDMI screen, but your device needs to be able to output an HDMI signal. For most phones that will be handled via an MHL adapter. Ironically my new phone (S7 Edge) wasn't compatible, but my previous one was so I use that with the Vufine. Just something to make sure to check, I think the Vufine website has links that can help you figure this out. I've also thought about trying the Vufine with a chromecast or something to see if I can use it with my S7 Edge, but haven't had a chance to test that yet. TL/DR: Works great, light-weight, HDMI, awesome.

Works great as Drone View

This is highly underrated. Its inexpensive (price of a economy monitor) It works great as a Drone's Eye View when you need to see people, your controller, watch the drone in the sky...1.xxx kilometers away...yeah..., yet you can see what the drone sees. And you maintain situational awareness that you do not get with FPV googles. I use an apple dongle for HDMI and its really an uncomplicated, neat, clean solution for Recreational and Professional Drone use. The newer AR headsets are 600, 700, $1000. You can get this for 100 bucks, it works, it is a great value.

Works exactly as advertised!

Device works exactly as advertised, pairs perfectly with all Windows-based devices. Does not work with Nvidia Shield tablet but the company makes this clear on their website and provides a nice comprehensive compatibility list. Highly recommend getting the headband mount, works much better than the glasses as others have said.

Works very well for video or images.

Exactly what I was hoping for. Only ding on comfort comes from the screen still being a little small to read emails, but using for images works well.

... a backer reward from kickstarter and instantly fell in love with it

I got this as a backer reward from kickstarter and instantly fell in love with it. i use it mostly in conjunction with my GPS application on my smartphone while biking. i have also used it with motorcycles with no problem. i would imagine that depending on the helmet, you may have issues finding good placement but i use an open face with no problem. it stays in place even as i turn around to check blind spots. the possibilities could be endless due to the unique feature to accept any mini HDMI input video sources. forget that annoying view finder on camcorders (if you still use one). imagine working on a project using youtube as a guide. when they say real life picture in picture, they mean it.
