    Good VR goggles. There's a decent amount of games and content in the Oculus store. This one fits Samsung Galaxy S7 and S8. After having a S7 for a while I got a Note 9 and unfortunately this one does not work with it.

    So it really did not cost me anything and I would not have paid 100.00 for it. I will say it is pretty cool and I have enjoyed using it when I do but I think if you are looking to buy one you should really be into VR or try to get it on sale. Just my two cents.

    The VR gear is a lot of fun to use. My 12yr old uses it all the time, even my his grandfather has a blast. They love to do the rollercoasters. The only downfall is you can't lay down and watch a movie.
