It appears that both Samsung and Apple have adopted the strategy of launching products year-round instead of limiting themselves to just one or two events. Apart from its Unpacked launches, Samsung hosted an online Galaxy Event last month to launch the Galaxy S25 FE and Galaxy Tab S11.
Now, it"s back again with another launch. The South Korean giant is about to lift the curtain off its Vision Pro rival, codenamed "Project Moohan." It"s an XR (eXtended Reality) headset powered by Android XR, a new operating system developed by Google and Qualcomm.
Samsung will launch the new headset at a Galaxy Event on October 21, 2025. Depending on your time zone, the official livestream for the Project Moohan launch will start at 10:00 pm ET/7:00 pm PT/2:00 am GMT/7:30 am IST/11:00 am KST/1:00 pm AET.
Samsung has tried its luck with headsets in the past with the Gear VR and HMD Odyssey. Project Moohan will be the first dedicated XR headset from the company. You can watch the livestream on Samsung"s official YouTube channel, Samsung Newsroom website, or return to this page when it starts.
People have some idea about what the Project Moohan headset will look like when it launches. That"s because Samsung already gave everyone the first look at the XR headset last year. Android XR was also unveiled at the same time, and it offers multimodal AI features and scalability across different device form factors, such as headsets and glasses.
The launch comes just a week after Apple refreshed the Vision Pro headset with the new M5 chip. Previous rumors suggested that the device would most likely debut in the third quarter of 2025, and Qualcomm"s CEO hinted that Samsung"s first device could be a pair of smart glasses.
Based on the information already available, Project Moohan will share similarities with Apple"s Vision Pro by featuring a large reflective front panel and colored fabrics, but will lack an external eye display.
The headset will be powered by a Snapdragon chip fitted inside a thin metallic front frame and feature a removable battery, hand gestures, physical controls, and native support for Android apps and Gemini AI features.
