Samsung Mobile Gear VR

I'm not sure if you've seen the new viral sensation on You Tube, but it is with a grandma wearing VR glasses and freaking out watching Jurassic Park. That's how great this technology has gotten!

It is hard to believe, but mobile virtual reality has finally arrived! The Samsung Gear VR drops you right in the action — and it's only from Samsung and Oculus. It allows you to have your own personal cinema along with the ability to stream! With the Oculus Video app, you can customize trailers, clips and even your own movie files. You can customize your virtual environment — choose from a home (aff) theater, big-screen cinema or even the surface of the moon. Plus you can buy hundreds of full-length Hollywood movies and TV shows! You can also live stream your favorite games, short films and video clips in a virtual theater setting. With full access to more than 1 million Vimeo videos and Twitch, a leading video platform and community for gamers, there's always something new to experience and enjoy! You can learn more about VR here.

Best of all, Best Buy has an amazing offer! You get free Samsung Gear VR, plus $50 of Virtual Reality content with purchase, or lease, and activation of select Samsung Smartphones! The offer is good 6/5-6/18 online or in Best Buy stores!

Do you own VR glasses? Is this something the dad in your life would love (or would you?)? I know Bill would love these!

  2. I’ve read so many reviews about the Samsung Gear VR and it does look like a gadget loving person would really appreciate having. My son in law would be ecstatic to have a Samsung VR.

    This looks amazing !! I heard that this is not so expensive. Unfortunately my dad is not into this kinds of things so I’m still looking for the perfect gift for him.

  4. My husband and son would totally fight over this. They both have Samsungs, and they’re both big into this type of gadgetry.

    This Samsung Gear VR is a great gift idea for any tech dad for father’s day. I believe anyone would love to us virtual reality gadgets for gaming or just view photos. Thanks for sharing this awesome father’s day idea.

  12. VR for only $100 is so amazing, it’s so cool that they found a way to make it affordable. Still a little bit of a bummer that it doesn’t work with the cheaper Samsung phones but it’s still really awesome! 🙂

    Also, your blog looks really great, I haven’t been here in a while. I’m only on mobile right now but it looks really good, I love your header. 🙂
