There's a new mixed-reality headset in town.
Samsung's new Galaxy XR headset isn't just about stepping into another world, it's about effortlessly blending the digital with the real world around you. XR, short for "extended reality," combines the immersive depth of virtual reality (VR), where you enter a completely digital environment, with the interactive overlays of augmented reality (AR), which adds digital visuals to the real world you see. Together, they create a fluid experience that feels both futuristic and surprisingly natural.
The new headset boasts an immersive 4K Micro-OLED display with spatial audio and includes an integrated, multimodal AI companion powered by Google Gemini.* Galaxy XR recognizes gestures, has eye tracking** and responds to natural language voice so additional context is just one ask away—and becomes a seamless part of your reality.
Samsung has packed all of this into a lightweight and ergonomically designed headset that rests comfortably on your face. It's powered by an enhanced battery and the ability to plug in for extended use, ensuring usability for extended periods. Galaxy XR also works seamlessly with your phone and PC, expanding the possibilities (and the screen size) for those devices as well.
Immersive display and spatial audio
Whether you're watching the game or playing one, Galaxy XR enhances the experience. Gazing into the 4K Micro-OLED display and listening to a spatial audio system made up of two sets of two-way speakers, you'll feel like you're on the field and in the action. Imagine watching the big game in immersive 3D at home or supplementing your live experience when you're there in person; Galaxy XR makes both possible.
If you're less into watching games and more into gaming, Galaxy XR has you covered there, too. The display packs 4,032 pixels per inch into a field of view of 109 degrees for an immersive experience that makes it feel like you're inside the action.
Galaxy XR doesn't just transport you to other worlds, it helps you experience yours in a new way as well. With Media Auto-Spatialization, you can immerse yourself in your memories by making 2D photos or videos feel 3D with added depth and dimension.***
And when it comes time to get some work done, Galaxy XR syncs with your phone and connects to your PC to expand your workspace, giving you access to multiple screens plus the ability to control your device with your voice, hands, or mouse. All your favorite Android and Galaxy apps work on Galaxy XR, and many have been optimized for a more immersive experience.
