It seems that the price of Samsung’s reality headset Gear VR has been announced. Under 200 Euros, the product looks pretty cheap, but isn’t it an empty box after all?
Samsung may have announced its final price for its entry into the virtual reality space. Gear VR will cost $199, according to a rep at New York Fashion Week. You know the calculation, usually the same amount in euros. This seems to confirm the information already received by Sammobile regarding the headset, as well as the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and Gear S.
Also, the Gear VR appeared on a UK retailer’s site for $250 pre-sale. It is common for local prices to be slightly higher than US prices, so they are fairly consistent. This price is lower than most Android smartwatches of the same generation. Except that, remember, Gear VR is a partial object.
Regardless of its design quality, the Samsung Gear VR is a smartphone accessory thought and designed exclusively for the Galaxy Note 4. Without the phablet, the Gear VR magnifier is a plastic shell with a few buttons and motion sensors. becausee Galaxy Note 4 brings computing power as well as providing the display. Enables virtual reality.
The price of the Galaxy Note 4 is still unclear, but it is expected to cost between 299 and 799 euros, depending on whether it is purchased through a carrier or at the maximum price. Therefore, to get the full VR experience, buyers will have to pay around $1000 for the set. That’s three times the price of the Oculus Rift. While Oculus is “just” a VR headset, of course then it also has a Note 4.
Release dates and details have yet to be announced, so it’s still possible that some bundle deals will make the set more accessible. However, it’s hard to imagine an incredible discount for the helmet at a price of 200 euros. If the Gear VR’s function isn’t just to trigger the Note 4 purchase, would this work for you?
