A trip to Singapore with Samsung’s Gear 360 showed how VR fills a void between photos and videos that I didn’t even realize existed.
The iPhone was hard to come by when it first came out. Even if you were willing to pay the exorbitant price, it had sold out in just a few hours in my hometown of Raleigh, North Carolina.

And after talking to me for 10 minutes, they wanted one.
