Huawei have officially launched their Huawei VR headset for their Huawei P9, P9 Plus and Mate 8 smartphones. According to Huawei, theirs is the first to offer a 360-degree sound field. Tech specs and features include a touch panel, back button, volume keys, 20ms low latency, 95-degree field of view and adjustable lenses down to a power of -7.00.

No Malaysia release dates or pricing details but we expect it to make its way to Malaysia as a bundle deal with the Huawei P9.
