\n

The era of Android virtual reality is here\u2026 again. Google\u2019s first two attempts at making Android fit for your face didn\u2019t work out, but the AI era and a partnership with Samsung have enabled a third attempt, and maybe the third time\u2019s the charm. Samsung has unveiled the Galaxy XR headset<\/a>, the first and currently only device running Google\u2019s new Android XR platform<\/a>. It\u2019s available for pre-order today, but it will not come cheap. The headset, which doesn\u2019t come with controllers, retails for $1,800.<\/p>\n

Galaxy XR is a fully enclosed headset with passthrough video. It looks similar to the Apple Vision Pro, right down to the battery pack at the end of a cable. It packs solid hardware, including 16GB of RAM, 256GB of storage, and a Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 processor. That\u2019s a slightly newer version of the chip powering Meta\u2019s Quest 3 headset<\/a>, featuring six CPU cores and an Adreno GPU that supports up to dual 4.3K displays.<\/p>\n

The new headset has a pair of 3,552 x 3,840 Micro-OLED displays with a 109-degree field of view. That\u2019s marginally more pixels than the Vision Pro and almost three times as many as the Quest 3. The displays can refresh at up to 90Hz, but the default is 72Hz to save power.<\/p>\n
