## Daydream Reviews
  ### 1. Great - while it lasted.

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**What do you like best about Daydream?**

Daydream is a legacy product from Google that was quite special while it was around. The fact that it utilized a smartphone as "brains" of the device was very smart indeed.

**What do you dislike about Daydream?**

Daydream is no longer supported by Google, which is the obvious downer. But it had a lot of promise - something I hope other developers will take forward.

**What problems is Daydream solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Daydream allowed for the creation of 3D worlds. It's rudimentary by current standards but was much easier to dig into than other SDKs at the time. Unfortunately, Google ended Daydream support with Android 11.
