Good Game in the series

If you were a fan of the original series then this is a good game. I would have liked to see a little more polish on the gfx to at least bring it up to today's standards but the game play is in tact and the story is good. The only down side is the voice acting is poor.

Great product, great quality.

Lets start with overall experience. When first opening you will find everything is nicely packed and all parts are of good quality.
Although I have found setup to be pretty simple following the instructions and online setup I can see some people having trouble.
What can be hard to figure out is re-calibrating sensors can be confusing. you have to enter device settings and click on the sensors to do a re-calibration.
Make sure you have plenty of room! I can not stress this enough, if you don't have enough room to use this properly things will seem glitchy even though they are not.
Device works with Steam VR but not as well as native Oculus apps.
A lot of people get sick when using VR so make sure you test this in the store before going all out on a VR setup.
I found the entire experience of the Oculus to be fantastic when setup properly with the correct amount of room.
Be careful what apps you buy for it as a lot of them are more like short demos then full experiences.
The feeling of presence and actually being in the VR world is great.

The high-performance Sport-Fit Plus Galaxy S7 Armband doesn't just protect your phone while you're exercising - it's also incredibly comfortable to wear. The secure fit and slim design stays out of your way, so you forget you're even wearing it. Now you can concentrate on your workout, not your device.

Does this $130 device do anything that I cannot do using the Google Home app on my computer or cell phone (which also allow me to give voice commands)?

No but it doesn't require your phone or computer which is a plus and you don't have to leave your computer on to control things like your thermostat or lights when your away from home.

Does this include the S7 edge?

I'm interested in buying this product, but it doesn't specify whether the S7 edge will fit in it as well.
Yes it does.
