It should be under "my content" or Library something of that nature and you should be able to just click on it and download it.

    While in the store last night I noticed Samsungs new promotion for the Galaxy phones. S7 and S7 Edge which was a Gear VR/256GB MicroSD.

    Since I am getting a Galaxy S7 Edge as a temporary replacement I asked if I could use this device to submit for this promo. They indicated there is no reason why not as I will be given a receipt and I am technically purchasing this "Loaner" till the Replacement Note 7 arrive in what they said is currently 2-3 weeks.

    So if you are interested in a free Gear VR (Supposedly the new version that is compatible with the Note 7) and like me you are turning in your phone to the store for a temporary replacement you can take advantage of this offer.

    Update:
    My Gear VR Promotion is moving along: Submission Approved. Preparing for Shipment.

    Doubtful, since you are exchanging and the exchanges get taken care of before new sales do. So chances are you just got your promo. However the current note u promo is ended. So unless they re-open it. Probably not. I hate this stupid S7 btw. It's trash compared to the Note 7.

    I agree s7e is nothing compared to the n7

    Just to let you all know, I have been in the approved status for a week now. No movement. It said it could take up to 4 weeks to ship. I am almost wondering if Samsung is going to delay shipment till after the Note 7 is available again and see how many of the S7/S7 edges get returned and then cancel out some of these free gifts.

    Read the fine print on those GearVRs, the promotional content will be tied to the IMEI and WiFi MAC of the devices used for the promo, be sure to Screenshot them lol so you can call and have it updated, not sure how much truth there is to that, but if its true, ugh what a pain.

    I was told the same when I called about the $50 free content it is bound to imei but after you download to your oculus account it will stay even if you switch back to the note 7. If you already have the loaner phone I would install and download the content before you get the Note7 replacement.

    They did. Most you can get gir it is the lowest price it cold for in the last 90 days and more than lily they will tell you no on the refund. The Best Buy I work at is not taking any returns on those items from the Samsung promos.
