Samsung Gear VR and Best Buy Virtual Reality Just Got Real

Thanks for sharing!

Father’s Day is creeping up, and Best Buy has just what dad wants. What dad doesn’t love being in on the action? The Samsung Gear VR drops you right in the action — and it’s only from Samsung and Oculus.

The reviewer has been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free.

With Father’s Day quickly approaching, you are probably wracking your brain for gift ideas. Does dad really need a new pair of socks or another tacky tie? No! He needs the kind of technology that will leave him feeling a part of all of the action.

Who doesn’t want to escape reality once in awhile? Well, mobile virtual reality is finally here. Watch movies in your own private cinema, be at the center of your favorite games, and socialize with friends in a virtual world all your own. The lightweight design and intuitive touchpad drop you right in the action and allow for hours of immersive entertainment.

Samsung Gear VR

With the Samsung Gear VR, you can live stream your favorite games, short films and video clips in your own virtual theater setting.  Using the Oculus Video app, you can customize trailers, clips and even your own movie files. You can also buy hundreds of full-length movies and TV shows.

I know you can’t wait to get your hands on this! You’re thinking, “This is the perfect gift for my dad or husband this Father’s Day!” And you’re also thinking you may enjoy using the Netflix for Gear VR when he’s not using it, right? Who doesn’t want to be in on the action watching The Princess Bride? Your dear, sweet Wesley awaits!

  • I know a few people that are excited about this! It would be fun to try this I all have to admit! I am very intrigued!

  • I will share this post with my daughter. She still does not have a gift for her husband. She wants something really special because this is his very first time to celebrate Father's day and a Samsung Gear VR is something I know my son in law would really love to have.

  • You've just made my gift giving easier. I think this would make the perfect gift for Father's Day and even I would want a Samsun Gear VR.

  • I think this would make our game apps sssooo much cooler than they already are. I need to look into this!

  • My husband is a technology fanatic!! This would be a great father's day gift for him, sounds like it's easy to use.

  • My husband has one of these and he and our son have so much fun together taking turns and playing with it! It is, I admit, an INCREDIBLY cool cadget!

  • I know that my husband would love this. He's all in to technology. What I really love is that it's Samsung brand. That's one of my favorite brands.

  • I’ve heard about this device and so far, all the reviews are positive. I’m planning to buy this for hubby.
