This is the same fear that many supporters of VR have; the risk of pointing people's impressions of VR from cheap, substandard experiences which induce nausea and frankly just aren't very interesting.

HTC/Valve and Occulus have produced a high quality product and then you have the trashy phoneVR which isn't even comparable. Is the prevalence of a substandard VR behind the recent slump in sales? It's fairly probable (with other factors).

Slump in sales might just mean that people who wanted to buy the device have bought it already and other people are not interested enough to buy it. There are many explanations to it, blaming phone VR is one of less probable ones I think.
