I tried a VRBox (a plastic version of the Cardboard) and it had zero presence, it feels like looking through a high tech "look anywhere" View‐Master — which is frickin cool in its own right if you ever liked View‐Master (like me), but it isn't VR.
I realized even my low-end game ideas wouldn't work on that kind of device. It left me with a fear that devices like this would shape mainstream perception of VR as a pointless gimmick, but it sounds like the PS4 may be coming to the rescue.
(Edit: I think I misread your comment, you are suggesting high‐end headsets with proper head-tracking, fresnal‐hybrid lenses etc. — the works — except for the screen part which is supplied by a modern smartphone with a low-latency video port?)
