Alright, so Samsung’s about to do their thing with the Unpacked event, which—honestly—who isn’t a little buzzed about that? This time, they’re rumored to be flaunting the new foldables: Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Fold 7. Plus, there’s the Galaxy Watch 8 (serving up more reasons to upgrade, maybe).
Now, here’s where it gets spicy. There’s chatter about a new XR headset, Project Moohan. This thing was teased way back with Android XR—remember that December 2024 announcement? Yeah, me neither, but apparently, this is when Google’s XR operating system’s supposed to hit the scene. No dates from Samsung yet, though. Classic.
Anyway, this leaker, the one who always seems to know stuff—Panda Flash—says we might finally get a date for this headset. Thought we’d hear more about it at Google I/O, right? Nope, nada.
There’s this image floating around (blurry as ever, thanks to The Verge) of Project Moohan. Panda Flash (still hate that name, but it’s catchy) says Moohan might hit shelves in South Korea first. Echoing Apple’s modus operandi with their Vision Pro, then going worldwide.
Oh, and if you’ve been tracking the leaks on Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Fold 7, Panda Flash has been on it like PB&J. Headset rumors? Sure, there’s some techy stuff. Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 + Gen 2, Sony’s micro‑OLED screens, pancake lenses… all sounds cool, right? But the real kicker is they’ve been demoing this headset around, despite keeping mum on detailed specs. Frustrating, yet intriguing.
Now, don’t forget smart glasses. Samsung’s potentially making moves there too, maybe going head-to-head with Ray-Ban’s Meta Smart Glasses. Because why not complicate our lives with more choices?
All eyes are now on the official date for Samsung Unpacked; New York City, next month? Stay tuned.
