Samsung never fails when it comes to adding a little pizzazz to its events, and this year is no exception. For the first time ever, Samsung is giving everyone a chance to see its newest devices in virtual reality (VR) by streaming the event live in 360 degrees. You’ll have your choice of viewing angle, as in the auditorium, stage left, stage right, or center stage. It’ll be like you’re right there in Barcelona with the Digital Trends team.

You can use Google Cardboard, or even your PC. Watching Unpacked on a PC Visit the Galaxy Unpacked event page. Choose one of four viewing angles. Watching Unpacked on a mobile device or Google Cardboard Download and install the-Unpacked 360 View app from either Google Play (Android) or the App Store (iOS). Open the app when the event starts and select your viewing angle. You can watch it on your mobile device without a VR headset. Just move it around to see all 360 degrees. Consequently, if you own a VR headset like Google Cardboard, you can insert your phone in that to experience it in VR. Watching Unpacked with the Gear VR Open the Oculus Store on your Samsung compatible Galaxy Phone (S6, S6 Edge, S6 Edge Plus, Note 4, and Note 5) and download and install the-Unpacked 360 View app. Insert your phone in the Gear VR headset when the event starts.
