This is a great VR gear for the Samsung phones. It was mention that glasses can be used with it, but it would depend on what type of glasses are used. My glasses started to scratch the lens on the VR after wearing it a few times. Had to stop wearing mine while using the VR gear to from scratching the lens surface. Overall it's a great product.

I got these with the bundle for S7. Pretty cool. I like them. Much better than the original Google Cardboard Box.

Need more info about apps you can use with vr. Very durable
When using it, the feeling is unreal actually feel like you in the game. Make sure you are sitting down can make you feel disoriented. I was on one app for a roller coaster and i am not good in real life with coasters. It felt so real I had to remove the vr to get my bearings back.

I got this for free with my S7. Probably my favorite toy I have. Fantastic for watching Netflix in my dorm room.

but not quite perfect yet. you find yourself emerged in many of the free apps but find they are only "long commercials". the other apps all cost additional money and can be on the expensive side. I would wait on this vr purchase.

I don't know how often I'm going to use the Virtual Reality, but so far I enjoy plugging in my bluetooth headphones and watching Netflix without disturbing my wife. My only gripe is that I wold love to lie back and watch, but the phone automatically knows when it's level or not, so leaning back makes you look up at the VR ceiling. hmmm, go figure
