Removing the safety warning was the best tip. I didn't know you could that. I immediately paused the video and went and did that. Thank you immensely!

Thank you so much for the Netflix app info. Kept me from returning my Gear VR. One of the main reasons for buying it is to use for Netflix while lying down.

Great tips... didn't know about the Samsung smart watch connection with GearVR.

I have enjoyed my Gear VR for a few hours in the last wwwk or so of having it. However novel, the whole experience seems lacking much content. I believe this model is capable of more than is currently available if that even makes sense. My curiosity for greater more immersive experiences has me sniffing out reviews on higher stand alone and console/PC VR devices. Im sure that even in 2018, the whole experience is still in its infancy and look forward to what content becomes available on all devices. Not giving up on my Gear VR and Note 8 yet. Informative video. The Netflix tips won't be forgotten. Thanks.

Awesome :) TYSM! I Got A Gear VR + Controller For X-Mas. BTW The "Disable Safety Warning" Option Helped *ALOT*

Another tip, worth knowing. If you push the side button when in VR, you will be able to access the phone in a virtual phone mode. Both portrait and landscape. Some things like video and apps with complicated graphics may not function. Regardless, a cool feature.

You should get a best VR games or apps video. Very informative video

Excellent tips. The first one, I didn't know, lol the safety warning was driving me crazy. I tried the watch controller, was too awkward for me, but the Gear controller is great. The VR has so much great content now it's very enjoyable, though it's difficult to watch a 2 hour Netflix movie in one sitting on the VR, so I stick to the TV for that. One thing I found that helps with general comfort is to use earbuds rather than full sized headphones, it reduces the weight of the whole thing.

It's cool, only with the Gear VR tho, because it's very comfy and lens set up is optimised so it doesn't hurt quickly. It's very enjoyable with the 3D effect and so immersive if you have a full SBS movie so you play it in 180° VR. You'll need a good VR player that will let you set up the SBS and it should be on 1440p although 1080p is still ok. I personally take a break after 1 hours to relax the eyes and focus. I don't have motion sickness if it's a movie

Unfortunately today technology doesn't allow to watch Full SBS (both 1080p to each eye). You can buy Bluray in 3D but it won't make a difference in term of resolution. With Bluray you need Bigscreen or Virtual desktop to stream your screen and play bluray with Kodi or madVR / LAV Filter, or it won't be true quality. If it's 180° you need 5K video because it's an image that is stretched to your headset screens, so the quality will be 720p, idk if 8K 180° can be played currently.

Hi. First video ever watched of you. And I got a question. Can you maybe look into using your Gear VR as a VR headset for pc. (You have an app called VRidge which allows SteamVR to see your Gear VR as a HTC Vive.) I'm curious how it works. Because I want VR for driving simulations. But buying a full VR headset for that is a bit to crazy for my liking. Also, another thing. I have read that a Samsung A8 2018 is also capable of Gear VR. But I have not found any video of it. While Cardboard VR works okay for me, I want to make sure Gear VR works on a A8 too so that I'm not wasting 120 euros
