Samsung Reveals Gear VR, Mobile Virtual Reality Headset - IGN


Oculus + Galaxy Note 4 = Samsung Gear VR

Samsung announced the Gear VR, the next wearable VR device –– and it's powered by Oculus, the company at the forefront of virtual reality.

The Gear VR is powered by the Galaxy Note 4 for all of its display abilities. It's also completely wireless, and focused on delivering a cinematic experience for users, along with games and videos. Samsung said the Gear VR will be available later this fall, although a specific date and price have yet to be announced.

The Note 4 snaps into the VR device, in front of 3D dual lenses, creating the immersive effect. A back button, touch pad and volume key also adorn the surface of the Gear VR. Samsung said the device will come pre-loaded with a collection of 360 degree videos and 3D movie trailers from a number of studios, for early adopters.

Note EDGE looks like it'll be hard to use with one hand.

Samsung Canada says that the note edge will be released sometime in 2015 but that's all. Pricing has not yet been announced for Canada but I'd assume it's somewhere around the price of my Note 3 $749+ tax

Samsung Galaxy Note 4 ? 28mobile

for anyone who wants to order it unlock. Seems like a decent price for such a device.
What I notice in Hong Kong is that a lot of girls loves to use the Note3. Maybe because it comes in pink?

I am 90% sure I will pick up the edge after seeing the ip6/6+ but it seems that its gonna be tricky/expensive to get one.

Anyone know if Rogers would sell the Note4 outright?
I've heard mixed responses. Some say they wont, being a new hit phone, as the sales person wouldnt make any commission on it due to me, the buyer not signing a contract with the carrier...

I pre ordered my Note 4 at the Samsung store in Richmond and the employee stated that it could be bought outright. Also I know rogers corporate stores will sell outright but not the authorized retailers. Bought my Note 3 outright at a corporate store last year during launch.

Pretty much all grandfather plans are not eligible for hardware upgrades.... at this point it is best to purchase your phone and stay on your cheap plan.

so choked.

-Pre-ordered it for pickup to Richmond Continental Center rogers dealer.
-Phone arrived at dealer on Tuesday, but wouldn't release it until today
-Confirmed with Rogers outright purchase price is 749.99+tax
-Dealer wanted 800 + tax in cash for it

Wouldn't give it to me in the end. I walked out.

What kind of silly bullshit is this?
