Samsung’s Gear VR Vs Google’s Daydream View, Google’s next-generation smartphone VR headset
IHS Technology forecasts Samsung’s Gear VR to have the largest installed
base out of all the major branded headsets in 2016 with 5.4 million.
However, the firm mentions that, the launch of Google’s Daydream View will
slowly disrupt Samsung’s dominant market position in the smartphone VR market.
In fact, IHS Technology forecasts
that Google Daydream View will become the most popular headset for VR by 2019;
overtaking Samsung’s Gear VR position due to broad industry support, a
compelling $79 price point and the delivery of a premium smartphone VR
experience.
