Hi all,
I received my Gear VR for Samsung S6.
Sometime the gyroscope stucks for few milliseconds. It happens randomly especially when I move my head rapidly or diagonally.
Also lenses get foggy soon if the room gets hot.
I read that the Gear VR for Galaxy S6 have a fan inside but I don't hear any noise.
The rest works properly, the vr experience is great.
share your Gear VR experience

I'm using note 4, as until now, i never experienced lag on the gyroscope, its quite responsive.
for foggy lens, i use my regular shave foam, rub it into the lens and leave it dry for couple seconds then rub with a clean cloth.

I am using note 4 and was experiencing some lag in the orbx viewer, then a friend
told be to turn OFF power saving mode.....since then the Orbx viewer is butter smooth.

I also have the Note 4 ver. and its really been some of the best VR experiences I've had. ORBX being at the top. Even though its a static image the sense of scale and clarity is the thing that really gets me amped. It feels like a whole new medium even with just a still image. If/when we are able to add hot spots and areas of animation that will really bring it to life. I'de like to see a comic/story book. It could just be illustrations with narration and some good sound design could be an amazing experience.

Yes, occasionally the s6 'snags' as you turn your head.
