My interview with Trusted Reviews bears more fruit. My opinion: Gear VR is the best headset right now for the everyman. This, we all hope, rapidly changes, and becomes any of a number of headsets developed by non-Samsung manufacturers in support of the Google Daydream platform.
But I do love my Gear VR. So practical. On my desk at home, I have a Gear VR and an Oculus Rift, and even with the latter in striking distance, I frequently reach for the Gear VR first. It’s just easy. Now, ‘easy’, I admit, may be the result of my being a Mac guy at this point, and the Oculus is connected to a Windows machine. I’m not comfortable on Windows anymore, having made the switch in 2010, and Windows 10 feels so foreign when you’re expecting Windows XP.
