Alright, let me dive into this tangled web of tech stuff. So, there’s this whole drama with Samsung and their mysterious mixed reality headset. Yeah, they didn’t say a peep about it at those big tech shows—Unpacked? Nah. Google I/O? Also no dice. But Samsung, the sneaky devils, insist it’s still coming this year. You heard it here.
On a recent call with the number-crunching folks—Samsung’s earnings call if you’re into that kind of thing—they spilled the beans. Well, sorta. They’re calling it ‘Project Moohan’ for now. No clue what it’s gonna be named eventually or how much it’s gonna cost (my wallet’s already trembling).
So, some Samsung exec, Daniel Araujo from their ‘MX’ mobile department, dropped the news bomb. They’re working on this futuristic XR headset alongside some wild TriFold smartphone. Honestly, I was like, “TriFold what now?” But let’s not get sidetracked.
Here’s the kicker. Project Moohan didn’t really shine anywhere. It kind of lurked in the shadows at these events. Even at Google I/O—prime time for Android devs—it basically ghosted. I mean, c’mon, if you’re launching something Android-based, wouldn’t you want all the Android wizards on board?
Oh, and don’t get me started on Samsung Unpacked in July. Nada on Moohan or the TriFold phone there either. Maybe Samsung’s planning some secret shindig later this year. Who knows? I love surprises as much as an unexpected power outage, so we’ll see.
Now, onto what we’ve managed to dig up about Moohan. It’s powered by Android XR with this Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 + Gen 2 whizzbang inside. The screens? Made by Sony, micro-OLED, but they’re hush-hush about the specs. They do say it’s got these fancy pancake lenses, auto distance fixing thingy (IPD I think they call it), and it’s loaded with eye and hand-tracking tech. There’s even a magnetically-attached light shield and a removable battery. Convenience much?
Oh, and VR motion controllers? Apparently, those are in the works too, though no one’s seen them. I’m tempted to imagine they’re invisible. Just kidding. Maybe.
You curious by now? There’s a hands-on review from back in December 2024. Comfort, display clarity—it covers all that jazz, mixing Horizon OS vibes with VisionOS looks. Worth a peek if you’re into the tech rabbit hole.
Okay, got it all? Hopefully, this ramble makes you as dizzy with anticipation as I am. Can’t wait to see how this unfolds—or TriFolds, ha!
