About

Samsung Gear VR is Samsung's mobile virtual reality headset platform, developed in collaboration with Oculus (Facebook/Meta) and designed to use Samsung Galaxy smartphones as the display and processor for VR experiences. Launched in 2015 and discontinued as a product line by 2020, Gear VR was one of the first mass-market mobile VR headsets, providing a more accessible (and less powerful) entry point to VR compared to PC-tethered headsets like the Oculus Rift.
