Using a GearVR with PC?

Hey guys, it has been a few years since I have used my GearVR and was wondering has there been any advancements in using your phone in a GearVR with a PC? Similar to an Oculus?

 

Everything I have is wireless, and should work pretty well I think? Wireless Xbox one controller, wireless headphones and a dedicated 5ghz wifi hotspot. Sounds like all the right ingredients for a complete wireless experience if the application is sorted, right?

My Gaming Rig: AMD Ryzen 5600x  |  Corsair H100i GTX  |  ASUS ROG Strix B450-F Gaming  |  32GB Samsung DDR4 3600MHz  |  ASUS RTX 3070 ROG Strix  |  WD Black 240GB NVMe  |  1TB Samsung 850 Pro SSD | 2TB Samsung Enterprise SSD  |  WD Black 1.5TB   |  3x NZXT Aer RGB 140MM  |  Seasonic Focus 750w   |  NZXT H500 Elite   |  Windows 10 Pro

 

My Home Server: AMD Ryzen 1400x  |  Gigabyte Aurora B550 Elite  |  32Gb Samsung DDR3 3200Mhz  |  HP RTX 2060 6GB  |  1TB Samsung 850 Pro  |  2x Seagate IronWolf Pro 18TB | 3x Seagate IronWolf Pro 4TB |  2x WD Green 2TB  |  Corsair CX650m  | Bitfenix Shinobi | Windows Server 2022

There are applications like https://riftcat.com/vridge that allow this. Most will want payment and the experience isnt 100%. I personally love my oculus and wouldnt go back to using my phone as a VR device. It all depends on each user and they they wish to do.
