Review on πŸ“± Samsung Gear VR (2016) - Compatible with GS7s, Note 5, GS6s - US Version (Discontinued by Manufacturer) - With Warranty by Kenneth Barnes

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Fits new large phones but needs separate adapter

Fits s8+ but didn't have the required USB-C adapter. (It included a USB-C converter). I was annoyed that the device had a USB-C port for charging, but I had to shop directly with Samsung for a replacement part for $13 plus $6 shipping. Both should be included in the package. I've tried a real Oculus Rift and it's a decent entry-level VR entry point, but nowhere near the same level as full VR. The USB-C adapter is not listed on Revain and must be ordered directly from Samsung. GH98 -40350A (For s8 and s8+) Save some money and get the old generation which is exactly the same as the latest except for the remote control. Compatible with newer Xbox One controllers, but must be a model molded as one piece along the top rib and updated with Windows 10 with Xbox tools, then pair with your phone using Bluetooth.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • boring packaging
