In contrast, Google promotes its Jump platform with professional setups like the GoPro Odyssey to create high quality YouTube VR ready content. Samsung also has its own (relatively) low cost Samsung Gear 360 camera which allows you to create VR content in no time and publish on YouTube, Facebook or Samsung VR. Google's Daydream View uses its own Daydream App to access VR content from YouTube and other VR enabled Games and Apps. Samsung has partnered with Oculus for co-branding purposes and allowing the Oculus App to be downloaded onto Samsung mobile devices so you can easily access Virtual Reality content (in addition to the Samsung VR App). Don't expect the high resolution and smooth frame rate experience that you can get wih the Oculus Rift and HTC VIVE, but the Samsung Gear VR (2016) is a lot more affordable as well. The Samsung Gear VR (2016) is similar to Google's Daydream View where it tries bring a premium virtual reality experience compared to the Xiaomi VR Headset and Google cardboard products. Samsung also hopes to erase the bitter memories of the Samsung Galaxy Note7's epic fail and keep the sales of the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge moving until it can make a comeback with the Galaxy S8.

And at an Oculus event - the Gear VR was designed in collaboration with Oculus, if you’ll recall - company CTO John Carmack admitted that having to use and fit a phone into a headset turned out to be a barrier to wide adoption.With the heavy advertising of the Samsung Gear VR (2016), Samsung continues to differentiate its products from Apple which has not embraced Virtual Reality in the same way Google and Android phone brands like Samsung have. It launched the Note 10 last year without the ability to support Gear VR headsets.
The XR ecosystem’s demise sounds like a blow to those who still have a Gear VR, but Samsung’s decision doesn’t exactly come as a surprise: It’s been backing away from its phone-based VR system since 2019. Android devices will also stop supporting the XR mobile app.

On the same day, Samsung Gear VR and Windows Odyssey headsets will stop supporting the company’s VR video app. Oculus devices will no longer support the Samsung VR Video app starting on June 30th, and the Facebook-owned company will remove the application from its store, as well.įinally, Samsung will disable all XR user accounts and delete their data on September 30th. The tech giant has already suspended 360-degree video uploads and premium video purchases, and it won’t be rolling out any further updates.
The tech giant says it’s ending the service, because it’s “rethinking its immersive video distribution” method, “especially given that Gear VR is no longer available.” Samsung’s XR ecosystem, which is made up of several apps, gives users a way to view 360-degree images and videos on their phones and links their VR headsets with their mobile devices.
Samsung will slowly shut down its XR service applications over the next few months until they’re completely gone by September 30th.
