Holiday Gift Guide: Samsung VR Gear

The holidays are here and it’s a busy time for many of us! While shopping is fun, sometimes it can be kind of hard to figure out what to get the people you care about. Not to mention how crazy the malls and stores get as well! I don’t know about you, but we LOVE to shop from home. I mean, who can beat shopping in your pjs and with no makeup – not to mention avoiding the crowds and long lines! Ok, I have to admit that we did most of our shopping online this year!

Are you looking for a gift for someone who loves technology? Then you’ll definitely want to check out the Samsung Gear VR. It’s awesome! Something amazing about Samsung Gear VR is how real it is! Even though you know that you’re wearing the goggles, it doesn’t feel like it when you’re interacting with the game. In fact, it feels like you’re really there! Thanks to the AT&T team, I received a Samsung Gear VR, as well as a Samsung S6 Phone to use with it. I love how easy it is to set up, as well as how affordable it is compared to other VR solutions.

The Samsung Gear VR is available for purchase for $99. Like I mentioned, it’s super easy to set up! There are no wires and no complicated setup. Simply snap your smartphone into the Gear VR and dive right into the 360° experiences! It’s definitely an awesome way to take your gaming to the next level! In fact, you can tour exotic places, become immersed within a haunted house, and more! You can even watch your favorite shows on Hulu and Netflix. With an expansive library of premium content, there’s always a new adventure waiting!

AT&T’s 2016 Holiday Gift Guide

AT&T has created an interactive VR video for their 2016 Holiday Gift Guide. Filmed in their flagship store in San Francisco, the video creates a 360-degree tour showing off great devices to gift to loved ones or yourself. The video shows the following: (1) A 360 look at the drones, phones, and more that AT&T offers in stores like our revamped One Powell location; (2) The best in home and portable accessories: Amazon Echo, waterproof speakers, cases, chargers, and so on; and (3) Smartphones and smart watches that use the same recognizable phone number thanks to AT&TNumberSync.

The Samsung Gear VR is awesome and we definitely recommend it as a gift giving idea this holiday season! A big thanks to AT&T for this opportunity!
