Report: Samsung's Project Moohan headset will launch very soon
Samsung's next big product launch could be very soon.
A new report from Korean outlet ChosunBiz (via TechAdvisor) indicates that Samsung's upcoming Project Moohan XR headset will begin pre-order registrations on Oct. 15, with its official launch occurring a week later on Oct. 22. Per TechAdvisor, the device could retail for anywhere between $1,800 and $2,900 in the U.S., so don't expect it to be an entry-level XR device for people who are merely curious about the concept. It seems like it will very much be an enthusiast device for early adopters (and an alternative to the Apple Vision Pro).
We do have some insight into the potential specs thanks to leaks from outlets like Upload VR and Android Headlines. Rumors point to a headset with 1.3-inch Micro-OLED panels boasting 3552×3840 resolution, or the equivalent of 13.64 million pixels per eye — nearly two million more than the Vision Pro and leagues ahead of the Quest 3’s 4.56 million.

There is some potentially bad news for anyone who counts themselves among that crowd. Namely, there's no guarantee at this time that the device launches globally this month, and previous rumors indicated it would land in Korea first. We don't know this one way or another yet, but it's very possible that Samsung launches it in Korea and other parts of Asia first, and in the West later. We'll likely find out in the coming weeks.
Samsung first teased Project Moohan back in January, and there have been other reports of the headset potentially launching in October. Brace yourself, folks.
