Great start!
on June 15, 2016
Posted by: ltschle
Expertise:Beginner
For a wireless headset, this is a great start for wireless VR! Would like to be able to use ear buds and keep my phone in a case for future generations. I can't wait to see future content for the VR. Orientation gets lost with the pinball game so need to reorient the point of view frequently.
Pros: Inexpensive, Bright display, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Heating
on June 18, 2016
Posted by: Dukejamaica

I recommend that they fix the issue when using your Samsung VR with the Oculus Rift that they need to do something with the heating cuz Corson consume too much battery power is heating so you can't stay on longer on the Samsung VR or just seems to be only 30 minutes with harp-playing and then you have issues I think a person should be at least ability maybe 45 minutes to an hour what the drain the other power maybe even start using some kind of individual source of his own power like other male VR systems but overall it's a good product it's a good design I do not like the new touch grid pad inside with the Indians versus the original Where was the engineering version of it it is more feel their user where you can actually touch your hands on the field know what you touch every time moving the base of the whole concept of it and the ease of it
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: heating, no individual speaker or headphones

Fun and exciting
on June 18, 2016

I had no expectations going in, however I found myself playing with the VR for a few hours. It's somewhat addicting. You actually want to stand up and move around (please don't, you'll hurt yourself). Worth the experience, or if you want to escape to a beach in the middle of the work day to unwind.
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color
Cons: heavy
I would recommend this to a friend!

Owwww! My Nose!!!

I don't want this to sound like personal information, but I have to write about this product. I have had the Gear VR Headset since April and this small but really significant issue arose about a month and a half ago.
The padding or lack thereof that goes on the bridge/sides of your nose has removed more skin than my daily exfoliator! I have tried everything from folding up a tissue to cutting material from different sources (like the bottom of a t-shirt, blankets and pillow cases) but nothing works and now the cushions that are supposed to give comfort so you can use it long enough to watch an expensive movie or play the overpriced game you just downloaded.
It is a really great, inexpensive VR viewing apparatus that just really fails on the comfort end. Don't get me wrong, some people may be able to tolerate this seemingly insignificant issue, but I really can't. It has come to the point that I haven't used it in weeks.
Could you guys do something so solve this problem...even if it is only for this small town girl who considered herself on the cutting edge of technology for at least a couple of months anyway!
Pros: Inexpensive, Lightweight, the 360 degree option, ability to watch 3d, puts you inside the game
Cons: Poor quality, material used that rests on the face, not durable
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love it!!

I was very sceptical about how real or interactive the Gear VR would be. But I was pleasantly surprised to find out its life like qualities. It's like I'm actually there on a roller coaster or performing a surgery on a patient. I love it!!
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: better with bluetooth headset
