Pre-order a Samsung Galaxy S7/S7 edge & receive a free Gear VR Headset

Samsung is keen to get the early adopters to try out virtual reality headsets for themselves. They're doing this by offering a pre-order bonus of a Gear VR headset with every purchase of a Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge. The pre-order must be in place before March 18 and can be ordered via a web form starting March 4.

Oculus is getting in on the act too (Gear VR actually comes from Oculus) with an additional offer of six Gear VR games bundled for free in the package. This has a retail value of $50. The games bundle will vary from mobile carrier to mobile carrier, but may include Land's End, Anshar Wars 2, and EVE: Gunjack.

For consumers who need a new phone and were also considering delving into some virtual reality, the cost of the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge comes close to just the cost of the Oculus Rift or HTC Vive alone. For buyers who move fast, they can enjoy perhaps their first taste of virtual reality with the Gear VR headset without paying more than the cost of the S7/S7 edge. These types of consumers may also find the separate cost of a high-end virtual reality headset from Oculus to be too expensive.
