Hot on the heels of Google’s announcement of Android XRwhich, as the name implies, is an operating system for Extended Reality devices, Samsung has gone public, revealing that it has been working with Google and Qualcomm for “many years” to create the Android XR platform.
But wait, there’s more! Samsung is bringing the first headset designed for Android XR, and the device is codenamed Moohan, which means infinity in Korean. It’s “equipped with state-of-the-art displays, passthrough capabilities and natural multimodal input,” and Samsung says it will be “your spatial canvas” for exploring the world via Google Maps, enjoying YouTube videos, or planning trips with Gemini . Yes, Twin – Bixby got zero mentions in the official press release, make of that what you will.
As you might have expected, Samsung claims the headset will be lightweight and ergonomically optimized “to ensure maximum comfort during use.” That’s all the “details” revealed today, but expect to hear a lot more about Moohan next year, if so recent rumors are correct.
