Hey guys,
I've spent a couple of months with the Gear 360 and put together a quick five minute video review if anyone is interested:

Harry Potter Rollercoaster at Universal Studios: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XA4f6XOWS7o
Jurassic Park Ride at Universal Studios: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-myFgwSMW0
Cheers!

Those of you running Sense 3.X ROMs are in for a treat.
HTC are doing an Easter Special Weekend, and they have discounted 52 films to just 5p (to rent though ) - Think of it as going to the cinema for 5p Some of the latest films are on show!
Fire up the HTC Watch app, and set up an account.
Some top titles include:
Paranormal Activity 3, Transformers, Hostel, Harry potter, Hangover, Exorcist etc.
Hope you guys found this helpful

Hello just wanted to know everyones experience with gear vr is it worth getting i used one and it seemed to blurry etc but in youtube videos its not like that anyway would like to hear from others how they are finding it
I use mine with a Note 5, and it is definitely not blurry. There is a slight "screen door effect" due to seeing all the pixels so close up, but that can fade into the background if you are not fanatical on looking for it. I play games, surf the web, watch video shorts, Netflix and Hulu on mine, and love the device. For $99 it was a great investment, until the Oculus 2 or Vive 2 come out in year or more. Get a bluetooth controller and play Gunjack, if you love to shoot things! I also have watched some of the VR events like the debates, a boxing match, or the Kentucky Derby, and it really makes you feel you are (almost) there.
****ing thrilled with mine, so many excellent freee apps and experiences. IMO gearVR should hold me over for a few years until VR market is more mature, then I'll upgrade to something better. VERY HAPPY AND AMAZED @ GEARVR!!!!

I got mine about a month ago and love it. It was mainly for watching 3D films at work, or Netflix. But I am now getting games and apps and haven't regretted any of it. End Space it awesome, and the kids are hooked on minecraft vr. Yes the pixels are noticeable if you actually look for them, but to be honest you only notice them while you wait for loading then forget about them when you get going.
I do recommend getting Milk VR app too, this plays your VR videos. Just use something like hola of you are outside US to get it.

If you get hola free from the play store and use that to open oculus store from US you will find Milk VR.
thought it would be nice if everyone that has a gear vr could list the apps they have on their Gear VR or mostly use heres mine
1. Verse
2. samsung browser
3. Vtime
4. Smash hit vr
5. Temple run
Sorry to see so little traffic on this site, and no replies back to your OP. Last time I read it I was on my phone, but now on Macbook. The Browser is a given, as it is very well done, but needs some more settings to delete histories and for privacy. The other ones I have liked a lot since getting this last November are:
1. Herobound. All three of the games are very good, and the multiplayer is fun once you have mastered the moves in the demo and the Spirit Champion.
2. Netflix and Hulu. Close enough to the same thing. I pay for both services, so it is fun to watch on the giant screens.
3. Adventure Time game. Short but very fun to play and the 3D parts are cute and give you that immersive feel more.
4. Oculus Video.. Some great shorts, and lots of other free things to see, presented in a very beautiful opening theater scene in 360. Renting movies also a good feature, but we tend to buy what we want to see, unless we don't expect it to be worth seeing again, i.e. Krampus : )
5. Gunjack. I finished the game finally and got 3 stars on all levels, but it was Hard. I used to love Galaga, so this was a no brainer, as it is basically that in VR 3D. This one took a while, and was definitely worth the price and more.
Thanks.
Mark
Thanks for sharing
Milk VR, End Space and Minecraft VR are my top picks. Well minecraft is more for the kids, they love actually being in the world. Milk VR has loads to watch for free and plays all my videos 3d, 360 or normal
I don't have GearVR, but I find NOMone VR Browser to be very useful for cardboard. Based on the user feedback, it should be usable on GearVR, but you can't use the controller though. You can use any earphones with a button to overcome this issue.
Hello all,
Was wondering what games that you have played that are a must have.
Thanks
Surprised there aren't responses yet. I find Bandit Six to be very addicting. It's a simple game, but really fun. I just started playing Dragon Front, which is cool game. The graphics are a touch blurry, but I like the gameplay and quality. Then there's always Minecraft, which is so well done it is worth buying a game controller for.
Dead Drop
Affected Manor
Dead and Buried
Face your Fears (fear of clowns? This one is great, Please record video and youtube it)
My kids get a kick out of Jurassic World Apatosaurus
A game I got a lot of people hooked on is Zed Shot If you like zombie shooting games, this is my favorite. :good::highfive:

I was at a very high level on Bandit 6 with almost all of the upgrades on my S7 Edge. I assumed the games were backed up on Oculus. It stinks that all that work is lost and I have to start from the beginning. But it is a fun game. [emoji4]

I don't have a gear VR, but I do have the Daydream. Do they both have the same game selection? I do LOVE that the S8 and S8+ support Day Dream out of the box! I love this puzzle game called Claro. Here's the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.superbright.claro&hl=en
Claro was one of the free games I received with the S8, pre-order, free Galaxy VR promotion. I played it once. It looks nice but not my style of game.
