The Galaxy Unpacked event is currently underway and alongside the brand new Galaxy S25 phones we’ve also just been shown a glimpse of the VR headset Samsung has been working on with Google. This headset — which looks quite much like the Apple Vision Pro in accordance with previous images — is a direct competitor to Apple’s VR offering.Samsung and Google’s VR headset can be powered by a Qualcomm chipset and can run on Android XR: a brand new operating system for Extended Reality devices. Much just like the Vision Pro, Samsung’s VR headset may even run in Mixed Reality. Which implies that users will see the world around them in addition to virtual elements overlaid on top.Samsung said last yr that users will find a way to seamlessly hop between Mixed Reality and fully immersive Virtual Reality. Android XR may even bring popular Google apps to Samsung’s VR headset. Google Maps for instance looks quite futuristic in my view.

Samsung’s VR headset is slated to come back out later this yr and could have to strike a balance between performance and price if the corporate wants any takers. Comfort can also be an enormous consideration with regards to XR devices and hopefully Samsung has made a headset you could wear for hours without feeling fatigued.

Not lots was revealed in regards to the headset just yet. Samsung says that we’ll get more details later this yr. This could also be because the corporate remains to be finalizing the design and the hardware or it could be because Samsung desires to see what Apple does next. An Apple Vision Pro 2 is reportedly in development and I believe Samsung can be clever to attend and see if more news comes out about that.

After the Vision Pro’s poor performance Samsung has a whole lot of market data to perfect its VR headset with. From what users expect, how much they’re willing to pay and every part that drew critique, Samsung could make the most effective VR headsets of 2025.

And I believe it’s got a reasonably good probability to release a VR headset you’ll actually see people wearing in public.
