Abstract: Oculus announced earlier this year that the block-building, world-creating Minecraft would be making its VR debut on Oculus Rift at some point in the future. However, it turns out the Mojang title is also coming to the smartphone-powered Samsung Gear VR.A...
That's all in the future, though. If you're interested in VR today and are looking for a new smartphone, then Gear VR is sufficient reason to turn your head Samsung's way. The technology works much better than Cardboard, and while it's still only suitable...

Wire-free VR experience unlike its rivals, more affordable than earlier Gear VR models, new design benefits glasses wearers, easy to setup and use, fun experiences on offer
Tied to phone hardware, lower refresh and perceptible resolution than Oculus/competition, may cause nausea, still limited range of content/games
The first time we slipped the Gear VR on and looked around a whole virtual world, head turning to take in what was to the side and behind, part of us was impressed with the sheer spectacle. It's quite amazing. But the Gear VR, like virtual reality...
Intuitive menu system, Lightweight, Quality construction, Tons of content
Limited lens adjustment, Phone overheats regularly, Straps are too tight

But I'm nitpicking here and this is, to an extent, just the growing pains of a completely new technology. While there aren't any truly phenomenal gaming experiences available here yet, the Gear VR Innovator Edition for S6 is a great taste of things to com...
Abstract: At the Mobile World Congress (MWC), an event primarily aimed at smartphone releases, HTC and Samsung have both announced virtual reality headsets that boast some pretty impressive features. Though this might seem like an odd move for HTC, President Peter ...
Delivers a strong VR experience, Comfortable to wear, Free apps and videos
Very limited supply of content right now, Expensive when you factor in a Note 4 and gamepad
Samsung Gear VR Innovator Edition review If Samsung wants to be regarded as an innovator, it needs to produce more devices such as the Gear VR. While the lack of content makes it feel a little like a prototype, it's an actual, buyable product that gives ...
