Bluetooth 4.2 LE
Display between 4.7 and 6 inches
Resolution at least 1080p @ 60Hz display with 3ms or less latency and 5ms or less persistence. (Quad HD or higher recommended.)
OpenGL ES 3.2 and Vulkan
Able to decode 2 instances of 60fps video simultaneously
Consistent 60fps rendering
Temperature sensors capable of reading device surface temperature
Probably the Honor 7 doesn't fit this list, but still wondering how is it detected when it's just an analog headset?

there will be an accompany app that needs to be installed for daydream idk if they will detect it using that, the headset itself should work with any/most vr games. i have a google cardboard and can get it working on a honor 6. the image quality is poor tho as the display is crap
Is the Honor 7 capable of decoding 60fps video?
i have no idea about that cant you download a 60fps video and try play it?

Youtube 360 videos at 60 fps work perfectly, I don't know if the specs assume more than that with the "2 instances of 60fps video"
