Overview

  • Samsung confirmed in an investor call on July 31 that Project Moohan will go on sale before the end of 2025.
  • The prototype features pancake lenses and an external battery pack to reduce on-head weight and improve comfort.
  • Qualcomm’s Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 chip and Micro OLED displays aim to deliver high-fidelity visuals comparable to Apple’s Vision Pro.
  • Moohan will support hand-tracking at launch with planned eye-tracking functionality to enable controller-free interactions.
  • The launch follows reports of Apple slowing Vision Pro production last October after weak demand, suggesting room for a more accessible high-end alternative.
