Samsung is engaged on a number of XR units – the Project Moohan headset, which it’s creating in collaboration with Google, plus two extra, Venture Haean and Venture Jinju, which ought to have a wise glasses kind issue. These have began to crop up within the Geekbench database.
The newest is the Venture Moohan headset (SM-I610), which is able to launch later this year, presumably below the title Galaxy XR. As anticipated, that is powered by the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 chip that’s particularly designed for XR purposes.

It has six cores primarily based on Cortex-A78C – two run at 2.36GHz and 4 at 2.05GHz. That is paired with an Adreno 740 GPU. By the best way, the brand new Nintendo Swap 2 chipset from Nvidia (Tegra T239) additionally makes use of the A78C core (8 of them, at as much as 1.1GHz undocked).
The chip helps low-latency full colour see-through (12ms), low-latency Wi-Fi 7 connections and VR particular options like foveated rendering and Space Warp. The latter extrapolates lacking frames with out ready on the GPU (or linked PC) to supply new ones, which doubles the body price to assist efficiency and might cut back movement illness (by lowering the perceived latency).

Anyway, Venture Moohan is provided with 16GB of RAM and runs Android 14 – this must be the brand new Android XR OS, with a completely reworked interface to deal with a digital show and hand-based controls.

There’s additionally the Samsung SM-I130 – we expect that is both Venture Haean or Jinju. It makes use of the identical Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 chip, nonetheless with 16GB of RAM and Android (XR?) 14. Which means Haean/Jinju will likely be simply as highly effective as Moohan – which is a shock since they need to have skinny glasses-like frames, not like the comparatively cumbersome Moohan goggles.
Neither Samsung nor Google set an actual date for the launch of Venture Moohan, however we would hear extra on the upcoming Unpacked occasion for the brand new Galaxy foldables.
