Alright, let’s dive right into this chaotic mess of thoughts about Samsung’s mysterious new gadget. So, picture this—I was scrolling through some news, probably too late at night, and stumbled across this bit about Samsung’s next big thing, which they didn’t even bother to spotlight at their fancy Unpacked event last month. Or even at Google I/O before that. Seriously, why the hush-hush? Who knows.
Anyway, in some earnings call—not that thrilling, I know—Samsung confirmed that their XR headset, whimsically called ‘Project Moohan’ for now, is still coming this year. Like, okay, we get it, Samsung. It’s coming. But when? What’s it gonna cost? Names, people! We need names!
This guy Daniel Araujo from Samsung’s mobile division threw us a bone during the Q2 2025 earnings call. Next-gen products, he says. XR headset this, TriFold smartphone that. Cool, cool, but somehow still leaves us hanging with more questions than answers. Classic.
Oh—random side note, but there was this picture of the thing. I looked at it, and honestly, it was more like staring at one of those “What do you see here?” images. Anyone else get that vibe?
And now, the awkward part. Samsung seemed a bit shy about flaunting Project Moohan at both Google I/O and Unpacked. Was there a missed chance to woo those Android developers who could be crafting the apps for this platform? Hmmm… maybe.
By the way, the TriFold phone was also a no-show. It feels like they’re planning some secretive reveal shindig between now and December. Just a hunch.
We’re still in the dark about specific launch dates or prices, but here’s some techie jargon to chew on: Project Moohan will run Android XR on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2. Mouthful, I know. Then there are the fancy micro-OLED panels from Sony. No resolution notes yet, but slimming lenses, eye-tracking tech, and a pop-off battery feature somehow got mentions.
Oh! Almost forgot. Hand-tracking and VR motion controllers. Why not, right? Plus, there’s talk of a magnetically-attached light shield. Because why make it simple?
You’re curious? I get it. We did a hands-on back in December 2024. It’s got notes on comfort, display clarity, yadda yadda, and even how Android XR resembles some mash-up of Horizon OS and VisionOS. Intriguing, if you’re into that sort of thing.
Was this helpful? No idea. But it’s a start.
