It's hard to describe how amazing this technology is. Samsung and Oculus have done something that is more than fun its immersive where it takes you to another place. I can say that Samsung has hit a home run partnering with Oculus. I'm telling you folks this is Amazing seeing Cirque du Soleil as if you where actually there. Experiencing movies in your own awesome movie theater. Being part of the VR game and feeling as you where there in the action. From setting and taking yoga classes to training with Lebron James I can just go on.
I hope that the future Galaxy S7 can be used with this Gear VR. I also hope that the Galaxy S7 has a OLED display making this product as great as the Oculus Rift.
Awesome device. Wonderful vr experience. A little uncomfortable but way worth it
Cons: phone gets hot
I would recommend this to a friend!

With Gear VR anyone can feel like he is in new world, which he can not see with eyes but with Gear VR anyone can move into and that world and feel the difference.
To try and describe how awesome this is doesn't do the VR justice. It's something you truly have to experience to see just how amazing it really is. The best I can say is that when you put it on you feel like you are transported somewhere new. It's a bit awkward at first because you are tempted to reach out and touch the experience you immerse yourself in but can't. Some of the games so far are easy and fun, while others add a whole new twist to "challenging"! The only downside so far is that after 15-45 minutes of use the phone will overheat, but that might also be a plus because your eyes definitely need a break from so much screen time. Besides that I suppose video quality could be improved, but the current quality is still rich and doesn't take away from the overall experience. I've had this for about 3 months and love it.
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, Lightweight, mind blowing, overheating helps give your eyes a break
Cons: Not high def, overheats after 15-45 minutes

This is one of Samsung best product so far, it works seamlessly, but it needs more free apps, and the ability to work with streaming services. I expect this will improve as time goes by, but otherwise great product.
We were a little hesitant at first and really didnt know what to expect. It seems as if you are there. Kinda blurry at times but overall great experience. Does make you kinda motion sick if you over use. It is definitely the future of gaming and other experiences.
