    Are these better than this ?

    • better or not, Samsung VR can be used only with Samsung phones I think.

      You can use this one in the rain - sleek design makes it go faster.

      Why do you use a google url shortener JV? You've formatted it into the text of your post anyway so the length shouldn't matter.

        for the virus checking feature.

          But if you are giving out the link, presumably you have clicked it and you know it is safe. Personally, I am more wary of clicking on a link that I don't know where it is going to take me and I think others feel the same. That's why we get a preview of the URL when it is formatted into the text of the post.

          Analogy to life….

    • Gear VR uses Oculus Apps (FB) and Cardboard VR uses Cardboard apps (Google).

    • No, Ive owned both. As others have said, they both use different systems to operate and have completely separate stores and apps.

      Google cardboard is good for a 'quickfix' of the VR experience. If you've never used it before and are curious, then its a good option. Gear VR is a much more comfortable experience, with a controller. The headset also has a touch sensitive track pad on its right hand side if the controller is ever lost. The games are much better, the straps keep the device locked against your head more solidly, and the the build (especially when it comes to securing your phone) is much better. Obvious downside is that it only works with Samsung Galaxy devices.

  • Is this compatible with iPhone 7 plus?

    • people said that normal size iphone 6,7 will be fit but only can used as like viewing not controlling with wand.

    • most likely its not compatible with anything other than compatible samsung phones

    So not with s5?

    • Wondering the same thing as I also have S5.

      • +1

        Nope - Note 4 + S6 onwards.

        • Not even Note 4
          Only S6 onwards

        • @peterjun5:
          Works on my Note 4. Had to cut the GearVR so it would fit, but it works. (and gets hot FYI.)

    This is the 2016 Edition, and thats a very very good price.

    I'm pretty sure this won't work with S8.you need the 2017 edition.

    • +2

      The s8 is USB c, and the new 2017 model vr has a swappable adapter for either micro USB or USB c.

      • +2

  • what makes these headsets so much better than the the cheap "VRBox" ones you can pickup for less then $10 ? Isn't the quality on your phone ?

    • +1

      It's a much better fit than the generic ones, less light leakage etc, extra built-in sensors for better tracking, built in controls so you don't have to pair a controller just to select a movie. Not sure I'd pay RRP but they're <$70 from China any day of the week

    • These allow you to charge while playing and have touchpads/volume controls on the side. Way better than the chinese junk.

    • According to this, there are huge difference between them :D

  • I am getting a galaxy s7 next month. What can I use this for and is it worth $40? Is it for games, videos etc? Are the new models much better?

    • +1

      Out of stock now

    • you can chromecast videos from websites, and other streaming sites
      you can mirror your phone screen ie games to your TV
      chromecast netflix youtube etc.. easy to use

      i use the first gen and second gen.. can't tell any difference in terms of performance

      • Yeah, the specs of the Gen 1 and Gen 2 are almost identical. Do you find the Gen 2 any more reliable though? My Gen 1 sometimes errors out when casting, so i have to disconnect the app and reconnect it.

        • Gen 2 has dual band wireless (802.11ac) so you can connect to 5GHz Wi-Fi networks. I guess that's the biggest difference as videos will load/stream much faster.

        • yeah drops out but not that often. Other than dual band wifi, they both run sufficient data transfer to watch any kind of video on chromecast ie HD Netflix / 1080p youtube videos

    • keep an eye out for Gen 2 Chromecast.. TGG/Bing lee had it for $47 last deal from memory??
