    For some games a Bluetooth controller is more beneficial but this device is handy when you need a singular experience.

    My son talked me into buying this. The only complaint I have is that it losses connection with my phone.

    Better than using the touch sensor on the VR headset but there are some apps/software that I wish it worked better with.

    I've purchased various controllers and pointers for the Gear VR but this one is superior. It's like a laser pointer and works as intended.

    Bought this so I could play VR games at a party. It was an overwhelming success. Remote is easy to set up and to use in the "VR world".

    First things first, as an upgrade to the older gear vr headsets, this is a great addition to make the headsets more usable. Problem you'll run into frequently is the controller drifts when your not moving it. So you have to reset the calibration pretty often. Otherwise it is quite handy. Also too bad Oculus and Samsung are no longer making gear vr products.

    Much different and better than the other (generic) remotes that I have. I'll probably never use them again. It's really pretty cool!

    This is a good remote for the S8+. Only issue is it needs alignment after a few minutes of usage.

    Adds real function to the GearVR headset. I wonder how it would be with two...left and right? 4K realism adds to the fun.
