When will Samsung actually start selling Gear VR?

So in the US and Europe people are starting to get their Note 4s and there is still no word out on how to buy a Galaxy Gear VR...

Here in Asia some countries like Singapore should get it in November. That's the information I have talking to Samsung reps.

The new Note is out since a couple of days already. I think Samsung won't want to miss the Christmas business so a good guess would be a major roll out in December at least.

According to a possible leak, it looks like 1 Dec for ~$187 USD. Sources below:

Those are articles basing a leak document for the "Korea" release of Gear VR only.

There is no official date for USA. Unlike the Samsung cell phone that releases first in Korea, there is a possibility that Gear VR could be release in the West sometime in mid-late November.

This is all speculation. I have actually held one unit at a Best Buy store. So I think November if I have to guess

Maybe I'll take a trip to Korea to get one. It's just not fair they get it first. It should go Irvine, CA then Korea, right?

Hi all! As soon as we have an update, we'll let you know. 🙂

A few people here have received their Note 4's and I gotta say, I'm really impressed. Thinking of grabbing one myself...
