SEOUL, Dec. 11 (Korea Bizwire) – Samsung’s virtual reality headset, called the “Gear VR Innovator Edition,” has been sold by several thousands of units on the first day of the launch. According to American IT magazines such as SlashGear on December 10, the inventory of the Gear VR ran out in one day after debuting on the 8th on major online stores in the United States.
SlashGear said, “Although the Gear VR is out on the market, you can’t buy it even if you want one as Samsung’s online store has run out of stock.” A Samsung Electronics official explained, “Several thousands of buy orders flooded our online store as soon as it was made available for sale. Right now the situation got better as we received additional shipments of the Gear VR.”
