Will the galaxy gear vr headsets for s6 work on note 5

Hi just wanted to know if any of the Galaxy gear vr headsets work on note 5.

VR using cheaper headset and remote? Still possible?

So I'm interested in VR. Looks like the inexpensive headset from Samsung ($99) doesn't support the note 4 without physically modifying the unit for the note 4 to fit? I'm going by what I've read and seen on YouTube as I have not tried for myself.
While searching around, I've found several generic VR headset that come with a Bluetooth remote controller for about $20.
My question is for those familiar with VR. Seems to me like when you dock your note 4 in a Samsung VR headset via USB it put the phone in a VR mode where you can launch and control games, videos, etc...
So can you do the same with one of these generic headset that do not have a usb docking port?
Obviously I'm sure you could play VR youtube videos, but what about the occulus gallery? The VR specific games? Can you force the note 4 into whatever VR mode the Samsung branded headset initializes (by usb docking) without it being usb docked?
Hoping someone who has used VR on the note 4 will chime in with some advice.
Many thanks in advance.
I'm curious to this too.
I bought a Samsung branded gear VR, the consumer edition ($99 one) on Craigslist and cut it to fit my note 4. All the controls work by my rom isn't loading the oculus gear VR software, so I've been using it with google cardboard stuff. Youtube videos, cardboard games and stuff. It works fine as a fancy cardboard. Just thought I'd let that be known.

Gear vr vs cheap vr

hello
is there any noticeable difference between a cheap vr (shinecon vr 2.0) and samsung gear vr ?

i am not referring to google cardboard, obviously the gear vr is a lot better

Hi there,
The main thing with Gear VR is that you have many features into the glasses.
You have buttons, a touch pad, volume control and many other things.
As for the "generic" ones you will need controller for the simplest things like to start a game.
Even though you can use apps from play store, the best thing is that there is a dedicated store for Gear VR users (Oculus)
If you got a compatible Samsung device, I would recommend, for sure, a Gear VR if you can get it.
You won't be disappointed.
