The included remote is not made very well but most headsets do not include one at all. The remote makes the VR experience significantly better as you are still able to navigate with your phone installed in the headset. With other cases you have to remove your phone just to hit play or navigate to another game or video.
Overall the headset is made well and is easy to use. My Nexus 6 fits well in this headset while many others struggle due to the location of the volume control. Of the VR headsets I have tried, this is the best one so far.
