    The VR Looks Worse On My Samsung Galaxy Note 5

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I was hoping that getting a new Note 5 from Tmobile and getting the consumer Gear VR would change the display but now it looks worse and moving the focus wont change anything but doesn't change anything than before when I used the Note 4 with Innovator Edition that looked better.

    Upgraded my phone to the Galaxy Note 5 and the VR goggles were a free gift. I plug my phone in and nothing. Rebooted, updated and reset. Still nothing. Going back to Best Buy in the morning to replace. Will post a review when I get one that works....
