  1. Can you use apps from the App Store on the Samsung or is there another store you have to use separately? And can you use YouTube and play the insidious game and use show box on it ?

  2. I got my Gear VR for a week now, can't put it down its that amazing! Glad I left Apple and in the Android world now. This is so futuristic!!

  3. can someone explain what is it that doesn't let you use the Gear vr with any other similar in size phone ? Since it is basically a pair of lenses with a plastic support for the phone I don't get it why you cant use any other phone with it?

  4. Who designed that Samsung game pad controller? I think it's dead ugly in my opinion. I will stick to Sony's PS3/4 with Sixaxis drivers.

  5. I am curious about one thing when it comes to the gear. Are people going to be restricted to only the content that is on the oculus home room?

  6. Will the new Gear VR work with a note 4 since it is practically the same as the note 5? Debating whether to buy the developer edition or to wait for the new consumer version in November.

  7. can i know why this new gear vr is not compatible with the note 4? will there be a new improved version for the note 4?

  8. Great video.

    2 questions for you:
    1) Any idea of the Note 4 will work on the new hmd? Seems like it would considering it supports the size of the Note 5.
    2) Any word on an official Gear VR gamepad releasing along side the hmd?

  9. Can anyone answer. Please!                                1.Why I cant down load Netflix on my Note4 Samsung Gear VR. ( just keeps on down loading and restarting )                              2.Where can I get a new SD card that is down loaded with the VR needed for my Gear VR Note 4 version?                              3.Is there any web site for the Samsung Oculus VR support ?

  10. I purchased a Gear VR Innovator Edition a few month back and am pretty impressed with it. I think I will pick up this consumer Gear VR as a second unit for social apps.

  11. For anyone who has used either of the Gear VR Innovator editions, about how much memory do the apps and games use? I am planning on picking up a Note 5 in the near future, and the new Gear VR is one of factors guiding my choice, but I can't decide whether to get 32gb or 64 gb of storage.

  12. with this price and portability , this VR headset will resonate with mainstream consumers… and sell more units than say htc vive or oculus rift…

    you have to move past PC and console to get VR onto mobile if you want it to be adopted and successful..
