The "phone on the face" approach to VR is a solid one, but it's going to be Apple that makes it work and owns it because they control the ecosystem. VR needs low end alternatives and "phone on the face" is it. From what I have read, Samsung's POTF device actually works quite well. Manufacturers such as Apple will see it as appealing because it gives incentive to buy new and more powerful phones. Google's POTF likely won't succeed (mind you it might have if they had more control over the fragmented Android ecosystem), but Apple's POTF, when it is announced, will be the winner in this category. Were you wondering why the new audio port on the iPhone 7? That's the VR POTF port.
