Using the Gear VR

My first concern when I heard about the Gear VR was comfort. Will it be comfortable on my face. You can see from the photo below that the part that touches your face is soft and cushy and  is comfortable.

It weighs just a bit over 11 oz, so it won’t feel heavy on your face. If you wear glasses, the Gear VR fits over most glasses too.

Free Samsung Gear VR With Select Samsung Phone Purchase

Through June 18, 2016, when you purchase (or lease AND activate) certain Samsung smartphone, you receive the Samsung Gear VR + $50 worth of virtual reality content at Best Buy.
