You don't have many choices. There's only one GVR that fits the Note 8 as standard, and it's the newest black 2017 SMR-325 with controller. Currently $109 on Amazon. You can mod older models as some have done, I can't recommend modding.

Give your old one to somebody for Christmas (assuming you're trading in the N5). The N8 is the best phone for vr so far. It won't overheat at all.

It's worth noting this is actually raising the price.

It's mostly been available cheaper on Amazon, let alone different authorized resellers. Got mine earlier this year for $~50 in total, and now the VR Controller works with VRidge, so it can also work as cheap PC VR, which isn't bad at all.

The article was a little frustrating to read. Multiple times, you highlight the central bit of news (Gear VR is discounted from $129 to $85 on Amazon) that the article was written to reveal. Yet, when I read the article, nothing ties directly to that news.

Worse, the source/link of said news isn't found until the very bottom. The caption "Buy Now!" not only doesn't allude to it being the Amazon source, but even sounds like a text ad for your site.

I don't mind that you want to talk about the strengths of Gear VR or any other thoughts you have about the medium. That's not what your headline says, though; it says that I can buy Gear VR for a discount.

The point of the article is the discount, so get to the point. Put the Amazon link, as well as a brief but descriptive caption about the link, on the first sentence of the article. Spend the rest of the first paragraph building the context of this info (e.g. the regular price is $130) while directly relating to the news. Also include any urgent/time-sensitive related info (e.g. limited time discount) in that first paragraph.

P.S.: I've read many, many news articles online, but this is the first one where I have ever encountered the word "protuberant". The term is unnecessarily complex, and forced me (and will force many others) to do a Google search at best, or simply stop reading your article at worst. Either way, it breaks the flow of reading while adding nothing substantial to the article.

You can cherry pick the bad reviews on anything. That's a total fallacy.

Go to the reviews that have been marked as most useful. None of them sound like that.

For example, here are cherry picked bad reviews of the HTC Vive:

---

"The VR view with the headset on were all blurry, I had to constantly move around my head to see letters/image clearly. Yes, I did try to adust the view with nob on each side of the headset, but it was no go. The headset itself looks cool, and it is a lot lighter than it looks. I have to say VR is still in its infant stage."

"-Game library is small, and most of not worth the money. We're talking 10 hours or less of gameplay.
-Games are full of bugs. I've yet to play a game that doesn't crash on me sooner or later.
-The hardware is as buggy as the games. I watch my controller drift off into the distance, get confused with the headset, or sometimes duplicate itself for no reason."

Oh no! People don't like 6DoF either!

No. Go look a the not cherry picked reviews.

Look at the reviews on this product, and tell me if you'd prefer them on the product page, or the seller page. Which makes more sense for people wondering whether or not to buy the product?
