For anyone interested in purchasing a VR headset and who's already a Samsung flagship owner, the Gear VR is a no-brainer. It's easy to use and the content selection keeps growing. There's plenty of appeal here.

Smaller design ; VR is just awesome

Still bulky ; Expensive

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

Wire-free VR experience unlike its rivals, optical adjustment, easy to setup and use, some fun experiences on offer

Limited software, Note 4 compatible only, image edge blur, limited equivalent resolution, joypad not included, may cause nausea

The first time we slipped the Gear VR on and literally looked around a whole virtual galaxy, head turning to take in what was to the side and behind, a part of us was impressed with the sheer spectacle. It's quite amazing.

Samsung's definitely proving to be an innovator with its announcements at IFA 2014, with the Gear VR and the new Galaxy Note Edge smartphone. We think the Gear VR has the potential to be a big hit in the education and gaming markets, and the low price...

Cheap for a VR headset; Works with all Galaxy S6 and S7 phones

Noticeable ghosting; Occasional stutters in frame rate; A lack of truly compelling content; Only works with Galaxy S6 and S7 phones

Samsung's virtual reality headset is a fun entry point for VR novices, but its technological flaws and lack of compelling content limit its long-term appeal

Impressive virtual reality ; Comfy to wear for long periods ; Wireless ; Responsive touchpad

Few VR apps in Oculus app store ; Only works with Galaxy Note 4 ; Basically a developer kit

The Gear VR is an impressive showcase of what is possible with mobile VR, but you shouldn't buy it unless you're a developer looking to get a head start on building VR apps.
