    I received the VR headset free with my S7. Still needs some work with the interface. Seems like it would work better hooked up directly to a computer to improve pixelation issues.

    Was expecting a lot more but this item is average. You have to download a majority of the content you want to see on it which takes a lot of time and storage space on your phone or etc.

    This is a really cool toy, however, it can get pricey once yoi start buying the apps and movie to take full advantage of the features. There is no doubt the tech is a lot of fun.

    Took a little while for me to learn that it was not going to be crystal clear, but was still impressed with the technology. Wish I would've waited till it was further developed.
