Love it.
I considered just buying an older version of this and just getting the new USB C adapter and remote separately but it worked out more expensive. You get everything u need in the one box in this kit. It's very well made and comfortable to use and I was really really surprised how good the motion tracking is on both the headset and remote. Screen resolution is OK but PSVR is probably better but for £100 and using a Note 8 this is really good. There is a surprising number of games, "experiences" and videos in the store and it was nice and easy to set up. I can highly recommend Netflix VR. Worked really well and one of the reasons i got this was so I can watch it on the VR while my Mrs watches rubbish on standard TV. :-) works really well.

Excellent VR headset if you have recent Samsung smart phone
I used this Samsung Gear VR with my Samsung Galaxy S8 smartphone and it's superb. The S8's OLED (not LCD) screen with high pixel count gives amazing results - better than Oculus Go and Google Cardboard etc. The bluetooth controller is useful but not always necessary and sometimes it's easier to just use touchpad on headset. The S8 has fast processor and works with hundereds of VR games. It also works with older Samsungs but the newer the phone the better. Great item but careful you don't break rear phone glass cover when attaching to hinge - i did after just a dozen uses.

Doesn't work 2023
Don't buy this if you're looking for an easy VR experience, to get it to work since Facebook bought Oculus and support for this was abandoned is extreme effort... I've bearly been able to use it and since bought something else to replace it. Good kit, terrible apps and abysmal support to get it to work

Great, but beware of WiFi issues with Controller
Astonishing results for the price. Very easy to set up and quality is as good as you could expect through a phone. However, be careful with one issue. My phone's (S8) WiFi connection kept cutting out when I was watching videos, which caused the content to stop. After looking into this for a while, I found out that the Bluetooth controller clashes with the phone's WiFi signal, because I had a router which was broadcasting on 2.4GHz (the same frequency as Bluetooth). Searching around for a solution to this, I found that a lot of people have this issue and the only way around this is to use a router's 5Ghz band. My router didn't have a 5GHz band so I ended up having to buy a link router which allowed me to broadcast on 5GHz. There is no other way around this as I can see so if you've got a 2.4GHz only router, beware that this might cause you headaches as you can't really use the headset with any online content if you end up with this problem.

do your homework before buying a VR headset. it's not instant entertainment!
I received the VR gear headset for my birthday. I found the set up lengthy, the apps needed space on my phone I didn't have. once all of these things where sorted I was good to go. I found the vision blurry even after focusing the device and the remote laser kept moving so I had to keep resetting it through-out games. I would advise not to eat before using VR as it made me really sick! I also had to buy a new cable to charge the mobile while in the headset (small slot on VR headset thats not normal charger shape - bought type c cable) hands up this is not as good as I thought it would be especially for £90!

Gear VR
Fantastic thing. I'm the 1st time VR gooles user, but what a fantastic thing. You can see place you've never travelled and feels like you are actually there. Also games aren't bad as well. Tried an interactive video and it felt so real. Rollecoaster even if not real turned my stomak upside down :-) It felt so real :-) Really interesting thing with lot of potencial. Played with that for few hours and it juiced my galaxy s9+ to half. So not bad considering non stop video and sound playing.

Latest model so, the S9 fits perfectly.
The latest model number is SM-R325 and that's what this one has. It works well with my Galaxy S9 and the product is in good, new, condition. Just remember to adjust the connector to the B position, by pressing it down and pushing, when fitting the S9. I can't speak for the S9+ or S8 et al. The Bluetooth control is great but, does need to be re-aligned every now and then; an easy task carried out by holding a button for a couple of seconds. The only limitation is that of the phone. And, if you are thinking about getting this, without having one of the latest Samsung phones, then don't. It won't work and you need one of the generic headsets.

Insanely good fun!
Oh what fun! I had put off buying this because I couldn't justify the cost in case I hated it. I needn't have worried, this is a fantastic little gadget. Also I was afraid that it would make me horribly dizzy, but it's not bad at all. Although I do recommend regular breaks as it can be tough on the eyes. Honestly this is so much fun I wish I'd bought it sooner.

Segnalo che questo modello del Samsung Gear VR, con codice SM-R325NZVABTU, è compatible anche con il Samsung Galaxy Note 9. All'interno della confezione è presente anche il controller. Come prodotto è a mio avviso ancora molto valido se si vogliono percorrere i primi passi nel mondo del VR senza dover investire cifre altissime, dando inoltre una seconda vita a cellulari con qualche anno sulle spalle. Ottimo per i video in 3D, per chi ha un account Netflix può inoltre vedere i contenuti della piattaforma con l'app Netflix Vr.

Lo utilizo para ver películas y series en la playa y piscina y en los aviones. Aunque no es del todo cómoda, es la más cómoda que he tenido. Lo utilizo con mi Samsung Galaxy S9. Se calienta bastante, y si estás en el sol (incluso debajo de una sombrilla) suelo cubrir el móvil con un pañuelo que voy humedeciendo periódicamente.

El libro de instrucciones viene en inglés y aunque vienen fotos sería mejor que además del inglés viniera en español
