We posted about Apple Vision Pro when it was released I think 2 or 3 years ago, how about Samsung XR that is almost just half of the price of the the Apple Vision Pro that was released recently. You do not need to attach your phone to it like it was in the old ones.

Apple hasreleased another one but which is not that important to discuss or you can read about it or watch about it on YouTube yourself.

The Samsung is almost half the price of the Apple reality headset: https://youtube.com/shorts/v5lc7UAAats?si=F4Gi9-2jjA2YafHY

Apple Vision Pro cost $3500
Samsung XR cost $1799

Have you used any of it to access online casinos?

So this is the one you wear on your eyes, like you’re actually inside the real world? I can imagine how exciting that would be if they use it in gambling, like sports betting where it feels like you’re in the actual arena.

The experience would definitely level up, but the odds of winning would still stay the same, I guess. Since gambling is more for entertainment, this could really add to the fun, but the price might be a problem. You know how gamblers are, they don’t usually buy expensive stuff like that, they’d rather use that money for gambling instead.

Interesting, I didn’t know you could use VR glasses in casinos. The immersion must be on another level… really cool. I’d buy a Samsung one, and with the leftover money, I’d place some bets in the casino to experience that new level of interaction. It must be really fun. If you actually buy it, post your experience here and give some feedback on whether it’s worth it.

Are ya sure bout that? Most gamblers are willing to spend any amount on gambling as long as they derive fun in doing it. The feeling of using the Vision Pro feels entirely different. You can be at the comfort of your home, yet have the same experience like you are in a physicals casino. I am very sure, highrollers can afford it. Both the Apple Vision Pro and the Samsung Samsung XR, none of them is above $4000 as seen in the OP. At the same time there are gamblers who spend $100k as their bankroll.

You are right but I will prefer the Samsung XR because it is cheaper and it is offering what Apple Vision Pro is offering. But you are right that some gamblers are very rich and they can afford it just like they can afford expensive phones, tabs and laptops, but I think it is wiser to buy Samsung XR which is also lighter in weight than Apple.

Certainly, if two things gives the same result and one is cheaper than the other, I will definitely go for the cheaper one. Unless, there is something unique about the other.  Dont get me wrong, I'm not a hater of the Apple products, but I do feel they are overhyped. In all, I'll choose the Samsung products over Apple any day.

If you want to use these headsets on any website it would be seizure inducing.

I don't see the appeal for any web-browsing.

Maybe if some casino wants to be really pioneering and releases an augmented reality app to bet on a match while let's say watching it on TV and introduce interactive elements based on what you see, it could be fun. For instance flick your finger in front of your eyes for instant bets on if a penalty will win or something. It could be tricky but certainly feasible with this technology. I don't think many people will buy these headsets for such thing to be worth to develop though.

I’m sure about it, because when you say “most gamblers,” that means the majority. But have you even considered the gamblers from poor countries, the ones who already feel nervous betting just $5? You really think they can afford to buy that kind of expensive stuff?

It’s 1799$ which is not worth it to purchase if you are living on a 3rd world country like me. It’s more than a month of my salary and it doesn’t increase my winning percentage so I will not purchase this for the sake if gambling.

Maybe I will try one from temu which is much cheaper version but not this one. Although the gambling experience will surely be improved but I rather go to physical casino if I want an enhanced gambling experience rather than purchasing this item.

That’s exactly what I’m saying too. In third world countries, where the average salary is like $200 a month, it just doesn’t make sense to buy expensive stuff when people can barely cover their basic needs. So not most can afford it. Of course, there are people who can especially those earning $20 an hour or more, but it’s not the same everywhere. We may all love gambling, but our financial situations are totally different.


So there’s actually something like that you can buy on Temu? I’ve seen it in their ads where they say you can get it for “zero price,” that’s why it’s getting so much hype. But if they really have it, I’m just wondering if it would be durable like the original ones, or just something cheap that won’t last long.

Are there casinos that support that VR-type feel? I think that's a game-changer in the entertainment department, but if it's just on a website and you feel it in a "VR" mode, I think it's going to be underwhelming.

If they manage to make casinos accessible to people with headsets (for people with disabilities), I think there would be more applications for casinos.

I don't think it's worth the investment for the Apple one, but for Samsung, it seems they are headed in the right direction.

They literally have everything that is cheaper version of popular gadget like this one. We can’t just assure for the quality but it’s not bad for a cheap price and for the experience to try it.  :D

I do manage to order on Temu in the past but all the item are disposable since the price is so cheap.

Anyway, if ever someone will share the experience on using this gadget I might consider hunting this gadget on the cheaper version.

Most people purchased their laptops and phones not because of gambling but they are using them to gamble today. The reality mind sets will be purchased not only for gambling but for other reasons up to watching movies and sports and others.

Just be very careful of Temu for them not to bring you a toy. The cheaper one which is good and common that I know of is Oculus, you should be able to get it in your country. I do not say you can not use Temu but just be careful of the site.

If I’ve got extra money to spend on something like this, why not? As gamblers, we like to get the best experience, so buying stuff like this feels more like an investment. And honestly, I don’t think it’s just for gambling it’s for other kinds of entertainment too.

But for people in poor countries, this isn’t really necessary. They might like it, but they just can’t afford it. Those who can probably bet $100 or more per stake, but if you’re someone who’s already struggling to even build that amount for your bankroll, then this just isn’t for you.

I know a few people who loves playing Video games on VR but not so much in playing or gambling on online casinos.
Plenty of streamers uses VR as well, mostly for immersion when playing their favorite games but again, I haven't encountered any that plays a casino.

As for online crypto casinos, I haven't heard any that supports VR and has online games specifically designed for VR. Maybe there isn't that much demand for it?
Searching a bit on google, some site listed a few casinos that supports VR but it's a list of a few unknown casinos (at least to me).

Of course, we all know one industry that is also booming with VR supported sites and that is, Porn.  :D

Did you say Porf? Oh... never mind.

I personally thought that virtual gambling would develop into ecosystems like Second Life and Metaverses of the style, but I wasn't so sure about wearables that seem to be gaining presence in the market. As said above, glasses/headsets are still too expensive for a majority, but it looks like the greater immersion they grant in videogames, gambling and other "hobbies" will be decisive in the near future trends.

I don't have any BTW. I'm trying to focus more in the real, immediate reality of my home, surroundings, friends and relatives, but in other circumstances I may have decided to spend money on this invention.

You should be able to access many Android apps on the device. Also you should be able to connect it to laptop and use laptop to access the gambling site. My information may not be totally accurate because this is what I get from AI about the Samsung XR which will be good for gamblers.

I have not used it since it's not necessary to use it just to access online casino. I believe any gambler would rather use such huge chunk of money for gambling instead of wasted it on VR. Wasted a few thousands just to buy something that may be giving satisfication for a few days and feel bored after that is not worthy.

It will be very much easier for whale gamblers to acquire this VR devices but not just small bankroll gambler like me who doesn't even take gambling very serious and even if I'm lucky to win $2k or $5k, I'm not going to spend the money on this device because I might not even have the time to use this thing always. I'm not undermining the fun part of using it but mostly the big boys gamblers that wi go for it.

I can see some replies saying it’s just a waste of money, but I’d like to ask from gamblers who actually use this device for gambling, please share your experience. I’m not really that updated with new tech anymore, and right now I’m already content with gambling on my computer or my phone when I’m away from home. But maybe if I read some real-life experiences, I might be tempted to buy one.

If you think it is a waste of money, there is no need to buy it. If you want to buy it, I think you should also think if other things that you want to use it for. Example is phone that you can use to make call, browse the internet, play some games and to gamble. You can use your phone for many things, this is the reason you can get something like Samsung XR. If you want to just use it for gambling, I do not think it can be worth it but it can be useful for many other things.
