That's all in the future, though. If you're interested in VR today and are looking for a new smartphone, then Gear VR is sufficient reason to turn your head Samsung's way. The technology works much better than Cardboard, and while it's still only suitable...
It's too early to pass judgement on the new Gear VR. If you're seriously into VR videos and/or you're buying a Galaxy S8 or S8 Plus, it's an obvious choice - though sadly here in the UK you won't get it for free with an S8 or S8 Plus like you will in the...
Good selection of software already available, Accurate performance, No wires to worry about, Works with most Bluetooth pads
Requires a Samsung phone to work, Limited power when compared to other VR headsets
As with all VR in 2016, there's no doubt that Samsung and Oculus are finding their feet with this device. No one truly knows what direction VR is going to take over the next few years, yet Gear VR does an excellent job of selling the dream. Sure, the so...

Big selection of apps and vids, Fog issue solved, Easy, fun, affordable
Only works with Galaxy phones, No high end features like motion tracking, Will Daydream kill Gear VR
Still the reigning champ of mobile VR, the 2016 edition of Gear VR is weeks away from facing its real first rival – Google Daydream. We'd recommend waiting until October to see Google's plans and partners. Otherwise, this is still a neat, fun, at times mi...
Affordable. Easy to attach. Great audio-visual quality for a phone-based VR accessory. A growing library of apps and games. This model is more comfortable than earlier versions, and you can charge the phone while using it
Only works with a specific collection of Samsung phones. Oculus PC game and app library isn't cross-compatible with Android or Google Cardboard VR ecosystems. Lacks the positional awareness of PC-based VR rigs. Limited inputs mean it's less immersive VR t
The latest Gear VR adds compatibility with Samsung's latest phones and cements its position as the best mobile VR product right now...
It doesn't matter if you've already got a modern Samsung phone, or are planning to upgrade to what might be the best big phone of 2016) - based on what we've seen, this is probably the best way to get into mobile VR. Samsung will probably keep the price...

Abstract: 2016 was the first real year of the consumer virtual reality era, and saw the release of the Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, and PlayStation VR platforms. Though actual game experiences were somewhat limited early in 2016, the pace has picked up dramatically on th...
Improved lightweight design, Cordless and easy to use, Diverse array of content
Gamepad greatly improves the experience, Walled Garden, No killer app
The refreshed Samsung Gear VR only offers a few incremental changes, but they're all positive ones. The design changes are brilliant, the extra padding, the addition of the home button, and the improved touchpad all make the Samsung Gear VR easier to us...

Abstract: With the new Galaxy Note 7 and its USB-C port (a first for the lineup), Samsung needed an updated Gear VR headset to support the new phone/port combo. But this is more than a compatibility update, if only by a little. Read on, as New Atlas reviews the mor...
