Samsung Gear VR Apps to Fuel Your VR Fantasies

Samsung Internet
The Internet is like a Minority Report of Virtual Reality. Instead of your regular series of web browsers, Samsung Internet relies on a series of panels in floating form to display your Web visits. No need to type while searching, a normal “OK, Google” is enough. Don’t worry about the tabs, which aren’t in use as they will be waiting in the background patiently and will appear in front with a basic look when you need them. The Gamepad is optional.
