Samsung's virtual reality headset, the Gear VR, can now be purchased from Best Buy stores in the US. Like the Gear VR available from Samsung and AT&T, Best Buy is selling the headset for $199. However, while that price might sound attractive, you should keep in mind that the Gear VR needs a Galaxy Note 4 to power the virtual reality content, so it's only a wearable device worth buying if you already own Samsung's latest Galaxy Note flagship. If you do meet that requirement, then the Gear VR is certainly a great product; it doesn't have a lot of content at the moment, but you do get things like a Temple Run game and immersive videos thanks to Samsung's Milk Video service.

Check out our hands-on experience with the Gear VR here.
