Holiday Deal Brings New Samsung Odyssey+ to Just $300

Samsung Odyssey+ is the company’s latest VR headset, and while it launched just a few weeks ago for $500, the Korean tech giant is throwing it on sale this Black Friday at a 40% discount.

 

The deal is set to start online at Samsung.com on November 18th, slashing the headset to just $300, controllers included.

As a hardware refresh of last year’s Windows VR headset Odyssey HMD, there’s a few notable changes in the latest version.

The biggest change to the Odyssey+ is undoubtedly its new “anti-SDE” display treatment that’s said to visibly reduce screen door effect (SDE) on its dual 3.5″ AMOLED 1,440 × 1,600 panels. SDE is a result of magnifying both the display’s pixels and the unlit spaces between those pixels, which at times can feel like looking through a fine screen door-style mesh.

 

Have your say!

  1. Sebastian I think it is still the old version. I do not see any link that is working to an $ 299,- plus. Read this https://www.vrandfun.com/samsung-odyssey-vr-headset-black-friday-sale-299/#comments

    But with the launch of the new Odyssey+ headset, the company has decided to mark down the previous version to just $299 during their Black Friday Sale event.

  3. That is Sabastian who has a good relation to big Apple, have all the same source, RoadtoVR. I do not see anything on Microsoft nor Samsung website and believe me they would not deal with Bigapple exclusive.
    I’m not saying who is wrong or right, only be very carefull, it could be the old version that will be shipped. I would not speculate If being from Europe; a return will cost you another $50,- and no return on the paid tax and customs.

    Sabastion, I hope being wrong in this, but I know you read this, show the official sign from Microsoft or Samsung about this plus deal? If this RoadToVR message is fake, it could be end in a big disaster for you and Bigapple.

  4. Guys, I can understand you would fear a scam, but the deal is true. When you go on the page linked by Sebastian, the headset is not visible, go to the bottom of the page, there’s a link to click to see more offers, and then if you scroll down you’ll see it. However, if you click on the headset picture to see more details, you’ll see the “normal” headset page with the normal price.
    About BigAppleBuddy, I used their services (thx to Sebastian ^^) to get my “old” Odyssey and it worked like a charm, they’ve been professional, comprehensive, reactive, answered all my questions etc. A very good service.
