    It does what it is suppose to do but the limited number of apps that take advantage of it is a drawback.

    It's not nearly as accurate as you would expect but it gets the job done. In 3d space it seems to act more like a pointer than an extension of your hand. Completely useless without a gear vr, so no use on normal games, which is an extreme let down, like I paid 40 to only sometimes use it.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
