Sure thing, let’s dive into it. So, Samsung’s gearing up for their Unpacked event next month, right? The usual suspects like Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Fold 7 are on the docket. Oh, and the Galaxy Watch 8 too, naturally. But get this—there’s buzz about their Project Moohan, this XR headset thingy. Maybe it’ll steal the spotlight. Who knows?
They hinted at this Moohan thing back in December 2024. Yeah, during an Android XR announcement or whatever. It’s supposed to be the first to run Google’s fresh XR operating stuff. Samsung’s whispered about launching it this year. Or maybe they didn’t whisper. Wasn’t there. Whatever, no fixed date yet. The leaker, Panda Flash (seriously, what a name), thinks we might hear more soon.
Expecting some deets at Google I/O last month? Yeah, same. Total radio silence though. Maybe Samsung’s keeping things on the down-low. Like, super hush-hush.
Also, side note, Panda Flash (really, what’s up with that?) mentioned the headset might first pop up in South Korea. Global rollout’s on the table, but who knows when. Sounds like Apple’s playbook with that Vision Pro launch. New market tactics, maybe? Eh, what do I know.
They’ve flaunted this Vision Pro rival at various shindigs over the past year. I even got to dig into Project Moohan myself in December—wild times. But Samsung’s keeping the specs under wraps. Frustrating, right?
Here’s what’s rumored: it’s got Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 + Gen 2 under the hood, some top-secret Sony micro-OLED panels, pancake lenses (yum?), and fancy tech like automatic IPD adjustment. Eye and hand-tracking, as well. And they’ve thrown in some magnetically-kludged light shield… plus a detachable battery, of course. Controllers are a thing too, probably. Haven’t seen those little gizmos yet though.
While we’re at it, Samsung’s allegedly jumping on the smart glasses wagon this year. I mean, they gotta keep up with Ray-Ban’s Meta thing, right? Whatever happens, the real scramble’s all about the official deets on Samsung Unpacked. It’s pegged for NYC, maybe early next month. Tick, tock, Samsung. We’re all ears—and eyes.
