The biggest difference between this and the older model is that this comes with a usb-c connector for the note 7, but an additional connector is included to switch the connector to micro usb. It also comes with a micro usb to usb-c adapter and it has pass through charging with an external usb-c port that can also be used as a usb-otg port for flash drives, card readers, or external controllers.

There are more functions and it's lighter, but I think the main reason it was switched is for Note 7 compatibility, although it works just fine with phones that worked with the white version. Comes with necessary adapter.

This new model supports the new usb c adapter that the new note 7 Phone uses. It also supports all the phones from last year's gear vr model like, the galaxy s7. Also, dark blue color is used instead of white for less outside light interference.

This one will be compatible with the galaxy note 7 which uses a USB type c. But it will also be backward compatible with micro USB galaxy phoes.

To Be Honest, there is nothing much difference between the two. If you had the previous model then you should not get the newest version. If you don't own one but would like to take advantage of it, then you can get the newest version or get the previous one.
