  • Far superior experience to Google Cardboard, Generally comfortable to wear (some nosecushion issues notwithstanding), Focus adjustment supports users in need of corrective lenses, Accessible, well done UI
  • Limited selection of apps (and pricy ones at that), Picture has a tendency to fog up, Cushioning should be more adjustable, Stuttering, jerky performance detracts form VR effect

  • As cool as these little changes are, calling this headset a need if you already own a Gear VR is a stretch. If you plan to purchase a Galaxy Note 7, this is clearly what you want. If you own a Galaxy S7 or S7 edge and have not yet purchased a Gear VR, thi...

  • Easy setup, Comfortable, Relatively inexpensive,
  • Not as visually impressive or technically powerful as PC-based headsets, No charging cable included

  • Comfortable and easy to wear, Larger field of view than before, Large library of VR content, Inexpensive
  • Only works with recent Samsung phones, Could quickly be overshadowed by Android Daydream headsets
  • Samsung's latest Gear VR is a joy to wear, and it's even more immersive than before. It's an easy buy if you own a Samsung phone, but be aware that Google's Daydream VR platform is on the horizon. From afar, the new Gear VR just looks like a color-...

  • Great option for entry into VR; easytouse; highly mobile
  • Limited controls; overheats easily; Samsung only
  • The Samsung Gear VR stands out in an increasingly saturated market for virtual reality headsets, in that the unit utilises smartphones, rather than PC and console-based options, to power the surreal experience. You simple remove the protective cover at th...

  • Some important design improvements, Easy to use, Probably the best VR experience for a smartphone till now,
  • Screen-door effect is reduced but still exists, Lack of content, Fit the Samsung Galaxy S6 phones only
  • The Samsung Gear VR for Galaxy S6 is available on Amazon. This is the best VR headset at the moment and I totally recommend it if you want to give VR a try...

  • Abstract:  For Samsung, it may indeed be a case of third time's a charm as far as its Gear VR headset goes. The third iteration in less than 18 months includes a remote control, but also effectively makes its two predecessors obsolete.The partnership with Oculus may...
