Ten million Google Cardboard VR headsets have been shipped since its launch in 2014. Not a bad number for a dirt cheap alternative to some of the more luxurious VR headsets currently out there.
In a blog post, Google celebrated and announced the number of Google Cardboard VR headsets shipped (not sold), since its launch in 2014. Ten million of these nifty little cardboard, elastic, and glass boxes have found a home at the ogled eyes and hands of users arguably enticed by the spectacle and price.
Google also shared some interesting statistics including the number of downloaded apps that support Google Cardboard. Users have downloaded these apps 160 million times through Google Play, and 30 Cardboard titles now have over a million downloads each to their name. There are quite a few other third party VR viewers that also support Google Cardboard apps, however, they are presumably not included in the units shipped.
