Tiggertx
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Received this as a bonus for purchasing the Galaxy S7. It works really well and even came with a few videos that you could download for free. However, it will likely drain the phone battery and for me is little more than a novelty. When my son tried it he said it felt like he still had it on after he took it off. Kind of like when you are on a boat that is constantly rocking and when you get on shore you feel like you are still on the boat.

Great Toy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this after seeing one that a friend had at Christmas. The 360 pictures have kept me busy for weeks. Milk vr is a must have for watching some cool videos. Also a chair that swivels.

Something to get used to
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.VR...no matter if it's playing a game or watching a show, VR is a whole new experience. Now this head set won't give you the full blown experience of it's computer based bigger brother, but it is still a well thought out piece of gear. I look forward to continuing to dabble ion the world of VR. This is an excellent start.

Not for me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While the technology is very, very cool and the experience is very immersive I was getting nauseous when using the headset for more than 10 mins. No one else in my family experienced this so its likely just my old eyes/brain. Too bad for me but great for them.

First VR experience
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got it as a package with the purchase of my phone. That being said I like it. It takes a while to get used to but it immerses you in whatever you are viewing. I like that you can download apps for it straight from the phone. My only complaint is that it is uncomfortable on my forehead and that light sneaks in around my nose.

Great for Netflix
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are pretty cool and entertaining. I love watching Netflix movies on this. I am looking forward to more apps. I gave four stars because my phone quickly heats while playing games (Gear VR tells you and makes you stop using it) and you can't respond to text messages or answer phone calls. You can read texts though.

Absolutely with it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you own a Samsung phone, these are absolutely worth getting. They give you a whole new experience that (aside from dropping over $1000 on a Vive or Rift) you can't find anywhere else. Granted, they aren't perfect (don't track when you walk, no motion controllers) but it's still a great value for what you get. The look on people's faces when they put them on for the first time is priceless, and the possibilities are endless.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
Smartphone resolution still not good enough.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After a demo in a store, I thought this would be a good purchase, but ultimately the resolution just isn't good enough on smart phones to stare at them 2 inches from your eyeballs for more than a a few minutes. My Galaxy S7 just didn't cut it, and though I tried it several times over a couple of days, exploring menus and demos, ultimately the final half hour session just showed that it wasn't for me. Part of it is that I'm a reader, and any text was fuzzy. Good idea, premature execution. A second significant issue is getting the phone in and out of the case. I don't have confidence that if I received a call while using it in the headset that I could get it out in time to answer- that's how awkward it is. It took a significant amount of time just to be sure I could get it in and out of the case without breaking something. Ease of use definitely needs work.
