The front cover of the HMD is mostly open. It relies on a spring-loaded hinge below, an elastic hook above and few high-friction pads to keep the phone in place. This method allows the HMD to be compatible with phones of various sizes and thicknesses. Additionally, there are 2 black capacity pads that touch the phone's screen. The HMD detects when the phone is in place and these pads adjust the screen to the correct position.

Unlike many other HMD, Daydream View does not have a top strap. It has 1 strap that goes horizontally across your head. It does not use velcro, instead the HMD uses plastic loops to adjust, tighten and loosen the straps.

[[Screen door effect]] is less noticeable on View than on [[Rift]] or [[Vive]]. Black smear, dark areas of the screen that smear across light areas during head movement, occurs due to OLED’s inability to change true black pixel colors very rapidly.

===The Controller===
[[Daydream Controller]] is a small, remote-like [[device]] with [[rotational tracking]] (3[[DOF]]). It allows the user to intuitively point at objects in VR with a mouse cursor. In addition to 3DOF tracking, the controller has a trackpad and 2 round buttons on top and 2 volume buttons on the sides. The controller is wireless and is recharged through a USB-C cable.
