Hands on: Samsung Gear VR (S6) review

TODO alt text

OUR EARLY VERDICT

VR still has a long way to go, and not a lot of people will buy this… but if you buy and S6 you definitely should think about it.

FOR

  • Smaller design
  • VR is just awesome

AGAINST

  • Still bulky
  • Expensive

Samsung’s relaunch of the Gear VR so soon after the last model is odd: everyone expected it to be a simple case of sticking your new Galaxy S6 in the same port and it would work just fine.

It’s hard to work out whether anyone would be annoyed about Samsung bringing out another model so soon after the last one. It’s always irritating when a company does that, but in this instance it feels like getting angry about a brand making a new case for its new phone, rather than using the one from last year.
