Just like the S8/S8+ before it, the Note 8 is Daydream AND Gear VR compatible, these are the ONLY phones that support both headsets at this time. It's looking like going forward Samsung high end phones will support both platforms. The reverse is NOT true, and probably never will be ONLY Samsung phones support the GearVR and only certain ones, AND there are different model GearVRs and they are not all compatible with all phones for example the Note 8 will ONLY work in the GearVR that was designed for it. The Pixel will not work in a GearVR, BUT it works fantastic in the Daydream View.
That all being said I think your best bet is the Note 8! It supports both platforms, AND if it's anything like my S8 it will look THE best in the Daydream!
