    This is very cool device, BUT you can only enjoy it when your completely alone or you don't have any tasks planned because it's SO immersive. With headphones and the screens creating your own universe, you have to be alone to not look like a complete weirdo.

    I received this for free when I bought a new Galaxy phone. My main issue with it is clarity. When I use it, it always feels like there is a film over the screen and I never get a truly clear image. Ive read if you ocular distance (OD) isnt in the normal range you will always have issues getting a truly clear image. To me its almost like there is a film on the lens that needs pulled off, kind of like a screen protector. Ive checked multiple times and there is nothing on my lenses. I think Samsung went cheap on the lenses and in the future maybe they will correct this on a newer version. Do the homework yourself before buying, I am just glad mine was free. It would have been returned if not.
