ADVERTISEMENTAnnounced today at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, the Samsung Gear VR with Controller powered by Oculus, to give it its full title, is the company's first Gear VR headset with a controller. The killer feature of Google's Daydream VR headset was always its neat handheld controller, and now Samsung is following suit with a new version of its virtual reality wearable, the Samsung Gear VR with Controller. Compatible with the Galaxy S7, S7 edge, Note5, S6 edge+, S6 and S6 edge, the Gear VR with Controller has 42mm lenses with 101-degree FOV (Field of View) as well as distortion correction technology to minimise motion sickness. For the absent-minded, the new Gear VR will feature a strap on the headset to hold the Controller when it is not in use. The imaginatively monikered "Controller" allows one-handed control as well as supposedly better motion interaction which Samsung says will result in "minimised head movement for a comfortable user experience".
