These Leaks May Tell Us Everything"},"content":{"rendered":"

If you\u2019ve been eagerly anticipating Samsung\u2019s Project Moohan VR headset<\/a>, I\u2019ve got good news and bad news. The good news is, we now (probably) know just about everything there is to know about its upcoming Vision Pro<\/a> competitor. The bad news? We still have no idea when we\u2019ll be able to use one for ourselves.<\/p>\n

Thanks to a comprehensive leak from Android Headlines<\/a>, we now know that \u201cProject Moohan\u201d is probably called the Samsung Galaxy XR in the official internal lingo. One thing that caught my eye about the Samsung Galaxy XR is that, unlike Apple\u2019s Vision Pro, the headset will come with two controllers that look a lot like the ones Meta includes with its Quest 3 and 3S<\/a>. Those will be coupled with an eye- and hand-tracking UI that operates like visionOS, the software inside Apple\u2019s Vision Pro.<\/p>\n

Leaks also suggest that the Samsung Galaxy XR headset will indeed use a 4K micro-OLED display in each eye, which definitely pits it against the Vision Pro in the display department and solidifies its place as a cut above cheaper headsets like the Quest 3 and 3s. One area that it may excel in, if leaks are to be believed, is that it\u2019s a little bit lighter than the Vision Pro, clocking in at 545 grams as opposed to 600 grams. That\u2019s not a groundbreaking amount of weight to shed, but any improvement on the Vision Pro-level heft is welcome in my book.<\/p>\n

Oh, and it looks pretty comfortable too. There\u2019s a lot of padding on the inside bits that rest on your forehead, which feels important if you\u2019re planning to wear it for longer periods. One of my least favorite parts of the Vision Pro is how it really weighs on your face and neck, so any added support is huge. Speaking of wearing a headset for long periods, Android Headlines\u2019 leaks suggest that the Samsung Galaxy XR has a battery life of around two-ish hours, which puts it on par with the Vision Pro. Unfortunately, it\u2019ll take an external battery pack to get there, though, just like the Vision Pro.<\/p>\n

There is one enormous detail that we don\u2019t know yet, and that\u2019s the price. Based on all of the almost-confirmed information we now have, I would imagine that this isn\u2019t going to be a cheap headset. Will it be Vision Pro-level expensive? Hopefully not. I can\u2019t think of too many people who would be excited to buy a $3,500 headset. That being said, rumors have suggested that it could land anywhere between $1,700 and $2,900. On either range, that\u2019s a lot of money to pay for a headset, even if it\u2019s as premium as leaks would suggest. Maybe Samsung will have more success selling Vision Pro-like hardware, but if I were a betting man, I\u2019d bet that Project Moohan is going to be quite the project for Samsung indeed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you\u2019ve been eagerly anticipating Samsung\u2019s Project Moohan VR headset, I\u2019ve got good news and bad news.
