Project Moohan was a no-show at Samsung\u2019s Galaxy product event yesterday, giving the company even fewer opportunities to announce and release the Vision Pro competitor by year\u2019s end.<\/p>\n

Samsung confirmed in early August that Project Moohan is coming<\/a>\u00a0before the end of the year, although we still don\u2019t know its name, release date, or price.<\/p>\n

At its recent Galaxy event, the company unveiled a number of mobile devices, including Galaxy S25 FE, Galaxy Tab S11, and Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra. Just not Project Moohan.<\/p>\n

A recent report from Korea\u2019s\u00a0Newsworks<\/a>\u00a0maintained Moohan would be featured at Samsung Unpacked, which is rumored to take place on September 29th. Still, that\u2019s awfully close to the Galaxy product event, which took place yesterday.<\/p>\n

The Newswork\u00a0report maintains Project Moohan\u2014which means \u2018Infinite\u2019 in Korean\u2014is rumored to launch first in South Korea on October 13th, priced at\u00a0somewhere between \u20a92.5 and \u20a94 million South Korean won, or between $1,800 and $2,900 USD.<\/p>\n

Still, it\u2019s fairly odd that Samsung hasn\u2019t taken more of an opportunity to hype the mixed reality headset, which will be the first to run Google\u2019s Android XR operating system.<\/p>\n

Samsung has essentially kept the lid fairly tight on Moohan since it was announced in December 2024; it was often available for demo behind closed doors at events like MWC in March and Google I\/O in June, although it was conspicuously absent from Unpacked in January and the second Unpacked in July\u2026 and now the Galaxy product event.<\/p>\n

With claims of launching in South Korea first, and at around $2,000, it could be that Samsung is expecting fairly low sales volumes from the standalone MR headset, which admittedly has some fairly good specs under the hood.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the short of it: Moohan packs in a Qualcomm Snapdragon\u202fXR2\u202f+\u202fGen\u202f2, dual micro\u2011OLED panels (resolution specs yet), pancake lenses, automatic interpupillary distance (IPD) adjustment, support for eye and hand-tracking, optional magnetically-attached light shield, and a removable external battery pack.\u00a0It\u2019s also getting VR motion controllers of\u00a0some sort<\/a>,\u00a0but we still haven\u2019t seen those either.<\/p>\n
