It looks like Samsung is going into VR using Oculus Rift:

But I wonder if it actually exists, or is it just betaware, like so many other things ?

It's very possible. The Display that's in the Oculus Rift DK2 is lifted from Samsung's parts bin.

Literally the display/front panel from the Samsung Note 3.

Just been playing with my DK2 and came across the samsung variant.

Interesting idea but it has to be a tiny market. You can only use it in a static position, would you use it in public?
