We don’t know whether Apple will even hold its October launch event this year, but at least one tech giant has stopped playing coy. Samsung announced “Worlds Wide Open” Tuesday, streaming to a screen near you on October 21. <\/p>\n
The grandiose name and soaring orbital invite image, above, may be justified. This is a Galaxy Event in which we’ll finally get to see Project Moohan (and hopefully start calling it something other than Project Moohan), the Virtual Reality \/ Augmented Reality Android XR headset billed as a cheaper, more high-definition rival to the Apple Vision Pro. <\/p>\n
Project Moohan<\/a> is “the first product built for the open and scalable Android XR platform,” Samsung stated in the announcement. “Project Moohan blends everyday utility with immersive new experiences, unlocking a whole new dimension of possibility and setting a new benchmark for XR.” <\/p>\n \n Mashable Light Speed\n <\/p>\n SEE ALSO: <\/a><\/p>\n And if that’s not enough to whet your appetite, how about a discount? Customers who reserve their Galaxy device at any time before the event “are eligible to receive $100 credit to use toward any additional eligible products,” the company said. After reserving by Oct. 20, the device must be purchased between Oct. 21 and Nov. 16.<\/p>\n We still don’t know how much this Project Moohan will cost, however. Previous leaks have placed the number in a range between $1,800 and $3,000 \u2014 a hefty price tag, but still cheaper than a Vision Pro. <\/p>\n Other leaks have suggested the headset will have more than 4K of resolution in each eye, which would also best Apple’s device. <\/p>\n We’ll find out for sure in one week. According to Samsung, the Galaxy event will be streamed on Samsung.com\/us<\/a> and Samsung\u2019s YouTube channel<\/a> on Tuesday, October 21 at 10 p.m. ET.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We don’t know whether Apple will even hold its October launch event this year, but at least one…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":305174,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[158,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-305173","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-technology","8":"tag-technology","9":"tag-united-states","10":"tag-unitedstates","11":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115377856007150329","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/305173","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=305173"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/305173\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/305174"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=305173"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=305173"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=305173"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
