Wait, Samsung Unpacked is around the corner? Time just… slips by, doesn’t it? Anyway, we’re about to get hit with some shiny new gadgets. If the whispers in the tech jungle are true, Samsung’s gonna flaunt its latest foldables—the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Fold 7—and maybe a fresh Galaxy Watch 8. But here’s the kicker, they might also be ready to shout about Project Moohan. Yeah, you heard right. Their upcoming XR headset, and everyone seems to be buzzing about it.
Let’s rewind a bit. Project Moohan popped up last December with Android XR. This puppy’s gonna be the first to roll with Google’s new XR operating system. Samsung’s been teasing us, saying, “Oh, it’s coming this year,” but no concrete date. No shocker there, right?
So, here’s the plot twist. Some serial leaker (seriously, what a name, right?) called Panda Flash thinks Samsung’s sneaky headset might finally step into the spotlight next month. We figured we’d catch a glimpse at Google I/O, but nope, nothing. I guess Samsung’s playing hard to get. Keeping it close, like a secret ingredient in grandma’s pie.
Oh, and get this. First launch? South Korea, naturally. Then like some glorious tech parade, it’ll make its way around the globe. Completely makes me think of how Apple did their Vision Pro rollout—US first, then everyone else waiting like they’re in line for a roller coaster.
Here’s all the nerdy goodness stuffed in Moohan. It’s packing that Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2—mouthful, right? It’s got fancy Sony micro-OLED panels, but nobody’s sharing the nitty gritty on resolution yet. Pancake lenses, IPD thingamajig, eye and hand-tracking—Samsung’s just cramming features in there like a mad scientist. That light shield that magnetically pops on? And, oh, the battery’s external and detachable. Sounds like a matrix prop.
Haven’t seen these mystery motion controllers though. Like, do they even exist or are we just collectively imagining they’re out there?
One more random rabbit hole: smart glasses. Yup, Samsung’s rumored to be cooking up something to tackle Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses. Do we need more smart specs? Maybe.
Anyway—wait, no, I lost my train of thought. Samsung Unpacked! It’s gonna be in New York, and we’re all just sitting, twiddling thumbs, waiting for the official dates. Should be early next month. Can’t wait to see if any of this pans out. Stay tuned—or something like that.
