There is a single photo and nothing else. And this is what the usual suspects make of it:
- Engadget: Motorola's next Moto Mod may be a VR headset
- Android Central: Motorola's stepping into the VR space with its 'Virtual Viewer' Moto Mod
- Phonearena: New VR headset Moto Mod, the Motorola Virtual Viewer, surfaces
- The Verge: Motorola is working on a VR headset for its phones
- MobileSyrup: Moto Z’s next Moto Mod might be a VR headset
- Android Police: Motorola to release a VR headset Mod that's probably just a Daydream viewer
- Android Headlines: Motorola Working On VR Headset Moto Mod
- Techradar: Motorola is reportedly making its own virtual reality headset
- Wochit Tech on Youtube: Motorola Making A VR Headset
- Wochit Tech on DailyMotion: Motorola Making A VR Headset
I will stop right there. So, yes, this is sad. No information, zero research, just some added fluff. And that is where you get your news.
When people ask me about stuff that may or may not happen in the future, I just tell them I read the same rumors they read. I just don't talk about them.
All those sites can now update their story btw. Evan has posted again:

Yes, that‘s sad. It‘s best to ignore that. I am confronted with so much redundant “information“ that it’s probably best to significantly reduce the number of feeds I am subscribed to. Now add to the sources you listed all the German/international ones that just copy everything from these blogs.
There is is so much fluff out there - sometimes I feel like it’s getting harder and harder to find the good stuff. That’s why you, Volker, have a strong fan community.
Have a great weekend!
