This VR gear is wonderful, especially when you have it in 3D mode, wow! It brings things up close and you feel like you are in it participating. This VR is even great to watch your own videos that you have on your phone.

I got this because my 2016 version couldn't accommodate the Note 8. I love the Gear VR. Feels like you're somewhere else. I especially love playing chess and watching fashion shows etc...

I bought this for myself and, after just a couple of uses, I'm really enjoying it. The 3D views are spectacular. The only issue is in order for my phone (S7) to fit in the viewer, it has to be taken out of its protective case.

This one is more comfortable than the previous S7 version. It seems to be a little easier to install your phone. The new remote control works pretty well like a laser pointer. Happy with purchase even know it was pretty pricey

I've only had it for a few days but my first take is that it's a lot of fun. I'm not a gamer, so I'm using it to explore 360 videos and photos and look forward mostly to use it to share my Samsung 360 photos with friends

This Gear is much better than the previous one. You don't get dizzy from using it and the pictures are much better. And the remote is a plus! The price is worth it...

This is an affordable easy 1st step into VR. Good quality and comfortable. I really like the BT controller. Lots of internet support. VR Games, large screen video, 3d video and VR stills/video are all there.

My biggest complaint is that you need a Samsung Galaxy S6 or greater. Those can be rather expensive if you don't have one already. if that were the case, I would recommend something else for your VR.
