The consumer version of the Gear VR was released last year for $99. It's compatible with the Galaxy S6, the Galaxy S6 edge, the Galaxy S6 edge+ and the Galaxy Note 5. Samsung has also confirmed that it's compatible with the Galaxy S7 and the Galaxy S7 edge. The new flagships fit perfectly in the existing headset and work just as well. Customers who already own the Gear VR headset and plan on purchasing the new flagship later this year will certainly appreciate this, they won't have to spend another hundred dollars on a new headset.
