The new $100 Oculus-powered Samsung Gear VR opens for preorders in the U.S. today

We knew it was coming some time in November, but Samsung has confirmed that the new Oculus-powered Samsung Gear VR is open for preorders in the U.S. today.

As with previous editions, the Samsung Gear VR doesn’t have a screen of its own, similar to Google Cardboard, which means you have to place your device inside the front of the head-mounted unit.
