Samsung’s Project Moohan XR Headset Could Be Unveiled at Next Month’s Unpacked Event

Alright, let’s dive into this. So, Samsung’s got this big event, right? Samsung Unpacked. Yeah, it’s supposed to happen next month. It’ll be full of shiny new gadgets like the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Fold 7, plus the Galaxy Watch 8 or whatever. Same old, same old. But, and here’s the kicker, there’s this whisper about them showing off some fancy new XR headset, epic named “Project Moohan.” Not a clue where that name came from, but it’s got a ring to it, am I right?

So, Project Moohan, back in December 2024, they kinda threw it in with this Android XR thingy. First gadget to run Google’s new XR system—like, exciting times if you’re into that. Samsung’s been a bit mysterious on the launch date, though, which is frustrating, honestly.

There’s this guy—serial leaker apparently—called ‘Panda Flash.’ Seriously, who names themselves that? Anyway, he’s spilling the beans on Project Moohan. Says we might finally, finally hear when it’s coming out. We all waited during Google I/O, expecting fireworks and? Nada. Zilch. Samsung’s doing their own thing, I guess.

So, there’s this pic floating around — looks snazzy, I’d say. Like, you could put this thing on and bam! Shiny future vibes, you know? This Panda Flash guy is also gossiping about where it’s launching. Apparently, Korea’s first in line. Lucky ducks. It’s supposedly rolling out similar to Apple’s Vision Pro thing — starting in one place, then hitting the world. Classic move.

For a while now, Samsung’s been parading this Vision Pro contender around. Let’s just say, it’s got us tech nerds buzzing. I got a peek last December, and yeah, tech at its finest, though they’re tight-lipped about specs.

But here’s a scoop: the headset’s got a Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 + Gen 2 chip — whatever all that means. Sony micro‑OLED panels—high tech stuff, pancake lenses (seriously, “pancake”?), IPD magic adjustment — sweet! Eye and hand tracking, an optional light shield… and oh, a battery you can yank out. Cool. The elusive VR controllers are in the mix too, I guess.

One more rumor for the road: Samsung’s maybe cooking up smart glasses. Competing with Ray-Ban Meta, they say. So, that’s interesting or something.

Anyway—oops, got sidetracked for a sec—really just on edge for when Samsung says the dates for the big event. NYC, early next month. Let’s see what they pull out of the hat! Fingers crossed, it’s something mind-blowing.
