    It’s a fun concept but the graphics could definitely use some improvement

    I purchased one of these & returned it. I found out that you had to have a certain brand of iPhone, or similar rig, in order to download the software. My brand new gaming computer would not do this. I'll be darned if I Patronize them by buying more stuff just to load my Oculus.

    I get sick to my stomach. It was fun watching pornography on a "90ft screen" or whatever but not really worth it unless motion sickness is not a deal for you.

    Netflix app doesn't respond as the others do. I found my GearVR to be more versatile. The apps seemed "squared off" whereas the GearVR seemed to fill the screen. I returned it, maybe after a few more revisions I'll consider it again.

    My kids are pretty disappointed in this VR, as it doesn’t stay charged. They can use it for half an hour at tops before it dies.

    This was quite difficult to use for my 6-9 yr olds it constantly knocked itself off of the Wi-Fi and it was difficult to get it put back on

    I ordered this for a store pickup before Christmas and picked it up on 21 December 18. To ensure that it would be charged and ready to go on Xmas morning, I unboxed and attempted to charge it and the unit was DOA. Attempted reset and unit would still not charge or turn on. Returned to Best Buy and there is no way to get another until after the new year. Christmas present ruined due to defective product. Quality control for production must be severely lacking.

    No games. For $250 you’d think you’d get more use out of it. Waste of my money. Should have held out for the Oculus quest or Rift
