I came across quote from a press release from Samsung (Emphasis in the quote is mine)

As the Gear VR grows in popularity, Samsung is prioritizing the smooth integration of the web browsing experience between devices. Whether on a Galaxy S6 edge+, Galaxy TabPro S or Gear VR, web browsing should feel consistent and continuous.

With the Samsung Internet 4.0 able to interact seamlessly on mobile devices and the Gear VR, it will be easier than ever for anyone to enjoy the immersive experience of virtual reality. Users can share bookmarks and video history between the Gear VR and Galaxy phones and tablets, for added convenience, whatever device they choose to use.


They are talking about the Samsung Internet Beta app, right? A enjoyable immersive experience?

Easy way to play YouTube 360 videos on the Gear VR.

Can't believe some people, the Samsung Internet App is by far the best app on the device!!!
Apart from the obvious YouTube and countless other video sites, you can pretty much do anything on it if you get Emby installed.
Also the fact it works with voice recognition is a game changer.

I just cant find how to view 360 Videos in that app.

I totaly HATE using the App because:

1. Its lagging like hell on my Note 4. Need to tap stuff 5 times before there is any reaction.
2. The window is far too small for normal browsing when regular websites are 2 or 3 times as wide as the window and I need a slider for horizontal scrolling. :?
....

and of course, I hear it all the time "360 Videos" .... but I cant find em. Of course clicking stuff while a youtube vid plays means 10-15 times clicking before any reaction shows up.
