"It's a bit of a cumbersome experience," said Glenn Hower, an analyst with Parks Associates.

"It's cool and there's a novelty aspect to it, but right now it's a tough sell for the mainstream markets," he told the E-Commerce Times.

"There's still some work to do with user experience," Hower added. "2016 may see some more significant implementations, but I'm hesitant to say it will make the jump from novelty to mainstream."

From the article "PCs May Not Be Ready for VR's Breakout Year" by John P. Mello Jr.
