Google announced back in May that the Galaxy S8 would gain support for its Daydream VR platform, and now that update is rolling out.
The official @GoogleVR account on Twitter just announced that the Daydream VR update is now rolling out to the Galaxy S8 and S8+. With it, you should be able to install the Daydream app on your Galaxy S8 and S8+ and dive into Google’s virtual reality platform.
The addition of Daydream VR support on the Galaxy S8 is a big deal. It’s good for Google because it expands the number of Daydream-compatible phones with a hugely popular flagship device, and it’s good for users because now Galaxy S8 owners have access to two VR platforms: Samsung’s Gear VR and Google’s Daydream VR.
If you’ve got a Galaxy S8 or S8+, are you going to give Daydream VR a try?
