Samsung's new Gear VR is still the best mobile VR experience in town

For mobile VR, there is no better VR headset and software experience than Samsung's Gear VR.

The Oculus-powered VR headset isn't quite as powerful as high-end VR headsets like Oculus's own Rift or the HTC Vive or even Sony's upcoming PlayStation VR, but it's enough of a middle ground to get you hooked once you try it out.

I've tried every version of the Gear VR since the original First Innovator's Edition. The new Gear VR, which launches with Samsung's new Galaxy Note7, is the fourth version of the headset, and there are some subtle changes that make it even better than previous models.
