Honestly think about improving something that is good in itself is no easy task, and this is the case of the "Samsung Gear VR" with its new model. The main reason that motivated me to opt for the new model (despite not have the inter-pupillar config option as "Homido" headset have) is that the first version of the Gear VR is designed for a small-scale face (IPD: 54 ~ 70 mm), this means that for people who have big face the "tunnel" effect increases.

In this new model the Field of View was increased to 101 degrees, beating the 96º of the first initial model; which means a considerable difference in visualization quality. An added value of the new Samsung Gear VR 2016 is the compatibility 100% with the "Gear 360" camera, which is an excellent complement for content development to this VR headset.

In few words the new model of Samsung Gear VR is the best choice of VR visualization for Samsung smartphones apps.
