Virtual reality or VR headsets are one of the biggest tech trends of the year, and could soon be part of our daily lives.

The first VR headsets were released earlier this year, and have already been selling in their thousands.

The PS VR even outsold every other console on the market, during its first week of release in Japan.

Tech expert Mark Zuckerberg, who created the social media site Facebook and owns a VR company, thinks that Virtual Reality is: "going to change the way we live and work and communicate in the future."

So, we asked four tech fans to put some of the best VR headsets through their paces, and find out what they think...

Headsets reviewed were the PlayStation VR, HTC Vive, Oculus Rift, and Microsoft HoloLens.

    Probably cheaper than gun ownership. Cheaper than a lot of hobbies actually. Cheaper than smoking a pack a day. Anyways, you get the idea.
