I agree Flossy, a must have! Trust Flossy when he says "a must have" gives so much more value if you own any of the new samsung phones. For $99 sitting in your own movie theater or watching Netflix in a virtual cabin it's a GO!
Yo Floss I only got these because of your stamp of approval and I must say these are the shit it's hard to explain the experience but yes it is a CERTIFIED WIN!
I got one for Christmas and used it off and on all day with a Note 5. It never shut down from heat. The picture quality is not HD and is a little blurry in some cases, but over all it is crazy and well worth the $. Things will get better as we move forward. The new Assassins Creed 3D demo is freakin mind blowing!
My Gear VR arrived today and was presented to "B" for my S6. It took about 10 mins tops to load all the apps and it was simple. First impressions were amazing and although you can see a slight grain due to the pixel count, it was money well spent. If you own a galaxy not or s6 / s6 edge, the Gear VR is exceptional fun and value.
rocking this out in town is crazy so many people asking so many questions sometimes it's hard to enjoy what I've got it there for and then you get the hottie coming over and it's all worth it
Man Floss, I agree 100% on your recommendation of this. Bought it from Amazon and it is sick. Bought Gunjack and Land's End and they are a lot of fun. Haven't watched a full movie yet since this is my first 3D and VR experience. Trying to get my eyes trained. lol. Anyway, thanks a lot Floss. Your videos are always well done and you make me want to buy everything, making me broke!
Just now seeing this video now, after I got my own Gear VR. It really does rock. One thing is pretty cool, bro, and that's that you seem to always like the same stuff I like. Keep up the good work.
Had the one for the S6 and it was dope. Except everything was practically a demo. I hope they have more full games and stuff now. Ill most likely be getting this for my Note 5. Its really cool that you can download 3D movie files and then play actual 3D movies in the theater. It looks like its popping out of the screen in the already 3D virtual environment.
gear vr...huawei watch...when i hesitate to buy a product...my best solution is watching your review and i am happy with my gear VR thank you Boy Floss ;)
Floss! I picked up this joint up and yo I didn't believe it SON! Off the chain! Even better wit a glass of Hen. Most definitely a win. Keep doin what u do. We out herr!
I got mine free with my new phone, but couldnt figure out how to make it work. Thanks for the video that helped me get it hooked up. This granny is going to be a hit with the grandkids.
using this with the note 5 for about 3 days and it's mad dope! there should be a button to bring up the VR menu instead of auto starting when inserting the phone. one more thing is, in the theater mode, there should be an option to make the screen more bigger and wide instead of the size of a TV.
Got this yesterday to use with my note 5. Definitely a good buy even just to watch netflix in bed without disturbing my wife while she's trying to sleep.
Just wanted to mention, I went to best buy yesterday and got the VR along with a chromecast..I just wish i would of bought this VR earlier, fucking dope man
Great video explained everything well without even demonstrating loved the way you made this video. Just bought myself one and highly recommend it especially under any kind of influence like you mentioned!
I got mine today and I downloaded Temple run just to see. Those dam apes scared the hell out of me. I snatched that thing off quick! Some of these games/apps creap me out, but it's so cool. You literally have to put it on to get the real feel of this thing. Netflix was a win. They need a roller coaster on it. Sick it is!
My gear VR arrives tomorrow - I am so excited about Oculus Cinema. Bought mine on Amazon of £90 (always expensive UK). I'll let you know what I think. Samsung is so next right now. Love my Galaxy S6 too - so much better than my iPhone 5. I skipped 6s - it was time to change.
Shoud we defintely use the VR application? When we plug the note 5 to the gear VR, ıt automatcally opens the oculus VR app. I wonder if we can use other apps other then its own app?
Big "thank you" to The Man for yet another great and informative video! Big shout-out to the "little unboxing knife", haha! Regarding the fogging issue, I recommend using an Anti Fog Spray. I must say I've only used those on glasses and goggles but they work great. If the fog appears on the outside of the lenses, then the sprays (or pads) should do the job.
My Man Floss, Like you, I'm into movies and the more adult content on the Gear VR than heavy gaming, but the Bluetooth Game Controller is the only way to change your viewing position in the Occlusion Video Theaters. In the big Cinema, you can move forward and back through three positions. In the Home Theater, you can sit in any of the seats in the front two rows, etc.. I believe it is the 'Y' key on the Game Controller; but try all of the buttons, for more features too. You're welcome!
The Gear Vr is the truth....i got it for The White 32GB Note 5.....i also just recieved the original Gear S....this will be my 2nd day using it.....and so far ....ITS A GO !!!!
How much different is this compared to Google cardboard? Was not really impressed by cardboard, and I feel this is the same thing, but just with a fancy plastic shell.
+Tristan R. Its similar but the build quality and strap make it more of an immersive experience. Cardboard feels less real because youre holding it to your face. Plus theres a lot more apps on Samsung. Not sure if its on cardboard, but Milk VR is pretty awesome. (its like RUclips but for VR)
+Deebo Guwop How is the difference just from the image quality? I would like to have something more comfortable than cardboard and at the current price point it would be perfect, but I always thought that the image quality just isn't there yet even with the qhd displays. Is the Gear VR also a noticeable upgrade in the image quality compared to the cardboard? I could imagine that the quality of the lenses is much better?
The image quality depends on the phones display and how good the magnifying lenses are they use. It looked good with the S6, so I imagine it's either the same or they improved it. There was a small screen door effect. If you looked close enough you would notice it. Looks like you're looking through a screen door with the pixels being so close. But it wasn't that bad.
PSA for my Note 4 users, the new Consumer Gear VR is compatible with the Note 4. You only have to trim the corners. Goto to XDA for instructions and more details.
hi, I just bought one today and have been struggling to find the plastic covers on my lenses. Could it be that the cheaper version doesn't have these covers? You're demoing the cheaper version..do you remember taking plastic covers off them? thanks.
just choose whatever you think you'll use more. If u don't like playing games or easily get motion sickness then you probably should get the g2. But if you find that the g2 will be useless to you then get the vr. Personally I would get the vr
Yo +Flossy Carter ! Good lookin out with this review!!!!! I just copped it last night after watching the video and I gotta say, you're right. It's a definite win! Probably the dopest tech piece I've bought so far. I appreciate your reviews son! Keep up the good work!!! P.S. I had a Floss moment last night when I unboxed it. I pulled out the blade and was like "RAH!" when I cut the tape on the box. Peace!!!
its good for all facebook is a bit odd and the internet over heats to start off with but as times going my phones getting better at handeling it, games are great fun, the cinima app is awesome and you can get a netflix app too
Hey Flossy, I am contemplating about buying an NOTE EDGE or NOTE 4 tomorrow and trying to decide which one to buy since, they are exactly the same. A year later which one would you buy? I also am curious if a Note 4 case will work for a Note Edge since, they are pretty much the same phone except the curve.
got the note 5 since august just picked me up the head set though I had the original pc oculus rift since dk1 but decided to try out a mobile platform!
I can't speak for Floss but for the most part no. There was one video that got me tho. I downloaded a Vegas Strip clip that was shot using a drone. It must have been windy cuz the drone was shaking all over the place... After about 5 mins I felt like I was ready to yak!! Haha so I think as long as the video is smooth and not some homemade bootlegg joint you will be fine..
+reggiehil I noticed that you also have a couple of videos about sickle cell, come and check out RED CELLS R US on Facebook Google and Twitter as well as RUclips, we are a support group for people with Sickle Cell and THALASSAEMIA 😎
I see you have reviewed the GearVR and the Note 5 cases. Which case would you recommend for good day to day protection while still being easily removable for use in the GearVR? I am torn between my favorite (UAG) or one of the Spigens. My only concern with the UAG is the constant on and off hurting the phone.
What's apps do you need to make it work? I put my Galaxy Note 5 in and asked download the apps I need. I just don't know what they are. BTW, bought my at Best Buy at Samsung kiosk
have you tried using note 4 with this new gear vr? here in Italy it costs about 459€ for the note 4 gear vr, but this new edition for 150€... even with a bit of loose/tight fit, if it works with note 4 i will buy it right away, plz try this in detail for me. thanks
could not wait, i bought this gear vr to see if it works with my note 4, the answer is yes, it works... the size is a bit bigger which can be compensated by trimming the edges. the rest is perfect
Hey Floss, I personally think you should invest into Compound Bows. This is right up your alley. There's a list of awesome bows like Hoyt or PSE but I'm pretty sure you can do some research and find what's best for you. I'm telling you, it's right up your alley and guarantee your gonna love it.
If the note 5 had an SD card slot I would have upgraded but I just can't bring myself to do it. Plus I'm happy with it and with the S6 edge/Note 5 rom it has been running great and I have the features of both phones. Just the screen off ticker doesn't work but I wouldn't see myself using it if I had an edge.
Due to this stellar review, I just ordered myself the VR on Amazon (they're back in stock)... as a Christmas present to ME!!! Thanks for the review.
I agree Flossy, a must have! Trust Flossy when he says "a must have" gives so much more value if you own any of the new samsung phones. For $99 sitting in your own movie theater or watching Netflix in a virtual cabin it's a GO!
and apple charges you $100 for a battery case...
+1
Savage
+Henry „Adda” Chaisritha At least most of them dont look like a shit
Henry Chaisritha Wait, lets go back to your comment. I just wonder with company charges you $150
Fuck apple!
"This is mandatory!" xD I love your style bro!
Yo Floss I only got these because of your stamp of approval and I must say these are the shit it's hard to explain the experience but yes it is a CERTIFIED WIN!

I haven't watched this video yet but when I saw the title I was like "YESSS" This video is a go! been waiting for a review on this from you
rocking this out in town is crazy so many people asking so many questions sometimes it's hard to enjoy what I've got it there for and then you get the hottie coming over and it's all worth it
Remember watching your videos about 3-4 years ago your channels blown up since then good work
dude, Floss, i've never seen so good presentation of a product. Seriously- great job. You've conviced me!
It's been a minute Floss, glad to see a new video, even if it ain't bout an iPhone :P. Keep it up, savages on deck.
I got one. And I agree with Flos, this joint is a certified win!!! I love this tech! 360 videos are crazy!!
Man Floss, I agree 100% on your recommendation of this. Bought it from Amazon and it is sick. Bought Gunjack and Land's End and they are a lot of fun. Haven't watched a full movie yet since this is my first 3D and VR experience. Trying to get my eyes trained. lol. Anyway, thanks a lot Floss.

Floss put me onto this! If you have got a Samsung get on this! I'm a gadget head and this is one of the best things I've ever bought!
gear vr...huawei watch...when i hesitate to buy a product...my best solution is watching your review and i am happy with my gear VR thank you Boy Floss ;)
I love the VR i just hope more apps get made for it,if you have one you know its mind blowing.A must try experience.
Floss! I picked up this joint up and yo I didn't believe it SON! Off the chain! Even better wit a glass of Hen. Most definitely a win. Keep doin what u do. We out herr!
+Dorian Evans that's what's up! Shit is definitely the truth
hey Floss this is by far the best review I've seen of any gadget, congrats for the awesome videos. :D
I got mine free with my new phone, but couldnt figure out how to make it work. Thanks for the video that helped me get it hooked up. This granny is going to be a hit with the grandkids.
I love your videos flossy you always convince me to buy everything that comes out in your videos
using this with the note 5 for about 3 days and it's mad dope! there should be a button to bring up the VR menu instead of auto starting when inserting the phone. one more thing is, in the theater mode, there should be an option to make the screen more bigger and wide instead of the size of a TV.
Yesss! I've been stalking Amazon for a week trying to get one of these joints. 😔
Another great review Floss! ✊
+KeMiHaLo lol they got us doing surveillance!
+Flossy Carter Lol! For real tho.
I got mines form BestBuy. Pre-ordered and got it the very next week. I believe they still have in Stock.
flossy may not have most subs. but he sure as hell has the most loyal #beastmodealwayson
+Chris Brown Much respect my dude!
+Flossy Carter does your daughter has a phone,just asking :-)
Got this yesterday to use with my note 5. Definitely a good buy even just to watch netflix in bed without disturbing my wife while she's trying to sleep.
I ordered one and should be getting it in a week. I can't wait! Great review video👍👍
this is the best thing ever. I got the last one out of 4 best buys. lol and I like how excited you are about it.
yo I seen many reviews on this an so far your review is the best, I subscribed because it was so good
Sup Floss! Another dope review.. I got the VR and you're right it's a must buy!! Anybody out there with a compatible phone needs to scoop this pronto!
Hi there Mr F. Have you watched any 360 video with the vr headset and is it complete immersion mate, Smiley Mikey from the UK.
Just wanted to mention, I went to best buy yesterday and got the VR along with a chromecast..I just wish i would of bought this VR earlier, fucking dope man
Great video explained everything well without even demonstrating loved the way you made this video. Just bought myself one and highly recommend it especially under any kind of influence like you mentioned!
Hahahaha it's definitely a must have
How much different is there between Samsung Gear VR and Google Cardboard?
I got mine today and I downloaded Temple run just to see. Those dam apes scared the hell out of me. I snatched that thing off quick! Some of these games/apps creap me out, but it's so cool. You literally have to put it on to get the real feel of this thing. Netflix was a win. They need a roller coaster on it. Sick it is!
I just got a Samsung gear VR. Where can you go to download movies on your phone to watch on the VR?
i just ordered one today and it just shipped in like 2 hours!
thanks floss for giving me the idea of buying the gear vr. I have the note 5 and I'm getting this awesome headset on amazon
My gear VR arrives tomorrow - I am so excited about Oculus Cinema. Bought mine on Amazon of £90 (always expensive UK). I'll let you know what I think. Samsung is so next right now. Love my Galaxy S6 too - so much better than my iPhone 5. I skipped 6s - it was time to change.
Great video. I got one. Did you get a gamepad or controller yet?
Shoud we defintely use the VR application? When we plug the note 5 to the gear VR, ıt automatcally opens the oculus VR app. I wonder if we can use other apps other then its own app?
Big "thank you" to The Man for yet another great and informative video!
Big shout-out to the "little unboxing knife", haha!
Regarding the fogging issue, I recommend using an Anti Fog Spray. I must say I've only used those on glasses and goggles but they work great. If the fog appears on the outside of the lenses, then the sprays (or pads) should do the job.
This little piece of amazing to show people when they come over. Try playing temple run, its very disorienting but cool to show people.
picking this up Thursday. still a go? works for s7 edge right?
it should. i just got mine and i use an s7.
omg bro u made me so excited for this !! im gonna pop into my samsung store tommorow and get one but now i cant sleep bro to excited!!!!
Floss i love when you throw those boxes miles away from you lol
lol
I had just ordered one from my provider I can't wait to try it out

+Deebo Guwop good description
Do you find that your screen protector (if any) is making a diffefrence with the VR quality?
Floss You thinking about getting the oculus rift and holo lens when they come out?
Hell yeah!
PSA for my Note 4 users, the new Consumer Gear VR is compatible with the Note 4. You only have to trim the corners. Goto to XDA for instructions and more details.
thumbs up! I found some on best buy cause amazon is forever sold out. should be in tomorrow can't wait to use these
hi, I just bought one today and have been struggling to find the plastic covers on my lenses. Could it be that the cheaper version doesn't have these covers? You're demoing the cheaper version..do you remember taking plastic covers off them? thanks.
yo I got my the other day and I really like it alot. you are right it is a must have. be blessed
Should I get the VR or the samsung g2 watch? I can choose either or when I get the new galaxy s7. Your opinion please.
just choose whatever you think you'll use more. If u don't like playing games or easily get motion sickness then you probably should get the g2. But if you find that the g2 will be useless to you then get the vr. Personally I would get the vr
15:26 download "some contents" and that laugh lol ;D
Yo +Flossy Carter ! Good lookin out with this review!!!!! I just copped it last night after watching the video and I gotta say, you're right. It's a definite win! Probably the dopest tech piece I've bought so far. I appreciate your reviews son! Keep up the good work!!!
P.S. I had a Floss moment last night when I unboxed it. I pulled out the blade and was like "RAH!" when I cut the tape on the box.
Peace!!!
+Cesar Castillo yo, get the MSNBC lockup raw app for it
Word
+Flossy Carter I just downloaded it, I'll try it out tonight when I get home from work and let you know whats up with it.
I love this channel Unbox and Reviews are the best
got one for Xmas and you have to have one on to explain! I love it!
Shout out to Floss for dropping another review to keep us fed
This maybe a dumb question but Is this viewer primarily for games? I want one of these devices for watching youtube videos. I don't play video games.
not a dumb question. it can do both
its good for all facebook is a bit odd and the internet over heats to start off with but as times going my phones getting better at handeling it, games are great fun, the cinima app is awesome and you can get a netflix app too
can you use this the same way as a standard oculus rift? like for PC gaming ?
I love you Flossy 😃. In a totally tech worthy non stalkerish way!
ordered mine on amazon it's comming on Tuesday hopefully it arrives early
Finally samsung winner...the best smartphone in the world...
Hey Flossy,
I am contemplating about buying an NOTE EDGE or NOTE 4 tomorrow and trying to decide which one to buy since, they are exactly the same. A year later which one would you buy? I also am curious if a Note 4 case will work for a Note Edge since, they are pretty much the same phone except the curve.
+Jazmine Jones I's definitely go with the note edge.. The case won't fit unfortunately
I wonder if my Note 4 would fit or would I have to buy the one specific for that device? I still see the note 4 version on ebay.
Samsung should really hire you to promote the Gear VR ;)
"quick unboxing".. a floss video s never quick xD
got the note 5 since august just picked me up the head set though I had the original pc oculus rift since dk1 but decided to try out a mobile platform!
That was the best tech review I've seen in a long time
+Flossy Carter dope review as usual bro, but do you ever have any problems with nausea whilst using the head set ?
I can't speak for Floss but for the most part no. There was one video that got me tho. I downloaded a Vegas Strip clip that was shot using a drone. It must have been windy cuz the drone was shaking all over the place... After about 5 mins I felt like I was ready to yak!! Haha so I think as long as the video is smooth and not some homemade bootlegg joint you will be fine..
+reggiehil Thank you bro because I heard that it can cause nausea in some people 😎 especially if you suffer with migraines
+reggiehil I noticed that you also have a couple of videos about sickle cell, come and check out RED CELLS R US on Facebook Google and Twitter as well as RUclips, we are a support group for people with Sickle Cell and THALASSAEMIA 😎
Thanks Calvin Campbell I will most definitely check out that group.
Never had any problems, even after a few drinks lol
been waiting on this floss, good looks my g
I just bought a Samsung gear vr today and can you watch movies that u got download on the note 5
Hey floss....do you ever mess with Oculus Rift or vive?
+rmendoza720 I use the ps4 vr
Floss, I'm about to preorder the s7 edge. Verizon offers the gear s2 or the vr with purchase. Which should I pick? Thanks.
looks like something I would have loved during my high school days.
Yo floss what phone do you use for your daily driver? And why? Thanks man. Love yo content
"Why the plastic gotta troll me for the video. I respect that though" lmao 😂
Hey floss can u watch Amazon movies or do they have to be on ur fone?
I see you have reviewed the GearVR and the Note 5 cases. Which case would you recommend for good day to day protection while still being easily removable for use in the GearVR? I am torn between my favorite (UAG) or one of the Spigens. My only concern with the UAG is the constant on and off hurting the phone.
A mobile operator in Serbia is giving Gear VR for free with every new S6 device you buy
+Dušan Popovski ok wow...that's a helluva deal. but then again, knowing about european prices on electronics...
What's apps do you need to make it work? I put my Galaxy Note 5 in and asked download the apps I need. I just don't know what they are. BTW, bought my at Best Buy at Samsung kiosk
hey man good video , just woundering if a samsung s6 edge + would fit or is it to big
+Ratakai Revelations you have to get the new one that fits them all. I just reviewed it not too long ago, its cheap
Alright mate. . nice video. .. can you use headphones with the vr?
have you tried using note 4 with this new gear vr? here in Italy it costs about 459€ for the note 4 gear vr, but this new edition for 150€... even with a bit of loose/tight fit, if it works with note 4 i will buy it right away, plz try this in detail for me. thanks
could not wait, i bought this gear vr to see if it works with my note 4, the answer is yes, it works... the size is a bit bigger which can be compensated by trimming the edges. the rest is perfect
you have to download movies? you can't stream with netflix or kodi?
+carlos matos usable with most "streaming services" wink wink
+jazz12103 lol thx getting mines 2mar I'm pumped
+carlos matos congrats
+NewKingBrandon thx
Hey Floss, I personally think you should invest into Compound Bows. This is right up your alley. There's a list of awesome bows like Hoyt or PSE but I'm pretty sure you can do some research and find what's best for you. I'm telling you, it's right up your alley and guarantee your gonna love it.
+Flossy Carter I know your a gamer. What are your thoughts of the NVIDIA Shield? Are you planning to cop one or do a review? ?
was w8ing for another Boss like video, it's good to hear from you again 😎
Which phone should i get? I Do not want to see any black margins when warning and i want to have a good resolution. what do u recommend?
You are my new favorite tech reviewer.
great video , as always. got any new M5 videos coming up?
This dude Flossy is made convincing aint he though? Lol, I want to go out and buy THREE of these damn things man
Hi man escuse me I have a question to ask you!
I can use Note 4 with this version or not (gear vr note 5) ?
If the note 5 had an SD card slot I would have upgraded but I just can't bring myself to do it. Plus I'm happy with it and with the S6 edge/Note 5 rom it has been running great and I have the features of both phones. Just the screen off ticker doesn't work but I wouldn't see myself using it if I had an edge.
I was waiting for this one. I'm sold.
