According to Korrespondent.net: The South Korean company Samsung is preparing to release its first augmented reality (XR) headset called Moohan. According to the Korean publication etnews, the presentation will take place on October 21 in an online broadcast. After the announcement of technical specifications and features, the novelty will be available for purchase through the company's official online channels.

Technical Specifications

The headset will feature microOLED panels manufactured by Samsung Display, with a record density of about 3800 ppi, exceeding the Apple Vision Pro's 3391 ppi. The device's performance will be ensured by the Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 chipset along with 16GB of RAM.

Price and Segmentation

The price of the XR headset is expected to be lower than that of the Apple Vision Pro ($3499), but higher than that of the Meta Quest 3 ($500). The projected price will be around $2000, allowing Samsung to position itself in the premium segment at a more accessible price point than Apple.

Additional Features

For users with vision problems, special corrective lenses will be available, similar to Apple's solution with the Vision Pro. A partnership in this area will be established with one of the South Korean optical companies.

The company is also focusing on user comfort and content variety. The device will support multimodal control systems, including voice, gaze, gestures, and contextual recognition. One of the key advantages will be compatibility with most Android applications, as well as integration with Samsung and Google services. Through collaboration with OpenXR and Unity, the company intends to expand the XR content library for games, education, video, and business applications.

Supply and Plans

The first supply will amount to about 100,000 units, with the possibility of adjustments depending on demand. Initially, it was planned that the device would be presented at the end of September, but the company decided to postpone the premiere to improve its marketing strategy and enhance product quality.

It is worth noting that Samsung previously introduced a new tablet in the UAE ahead of schedule.
