Samsung To Unveil Project Moohan XR Headset On October 21
The Korean tech giant’s upcoming Galaxy event will debut its Android-based mixed-reality headset, positioning it against Apple’s Vision Pro.
Samsung will unveil its long-rumored mixed-reality headset, codenamed Project Moohan, at a Galaxy event called “Worlds Wide Open” on October 21. The livestream marks Samsung’s return to immersive hardware and its most ambitious XR launch since the early Gear VR experiments.
Described by the company as “the first product built for the open and scalable Android XR platform,” Moohan is designed to blend virtual and augmented reality through Google’s ecosystem. The device is expected to target professional users and developers who want access to an open platform rather than a closed system like Apple’s.
Samsung says the headset “unlocks a whole new dimension of possibility,” signaling a renewed commitment to spatial computing after several years focused on smartphones and foldables. The company has worked with Qualcomm and Google on XR hardware standards, suggesting Project Moohan could become a reference point for Android-based devices.
Pricing is still unannounced, though leaks suggest a range between $1,800 and $3,000, cheaper than Apple’s Vision Pro but still a premium device. Other reports point to dual 4K displays, advanced tracking, and deeper integration with the Galaxy ecosystem.

Ahead of launch, Samsung is offering $100 credit to customers who reserve any Galaxy device before October 20, redeemable on eligible purchases after the event.
The push comes as global tech firms reposition around spatial computing and AI-driven interfaces. In the Middle East, where Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 and the UAE’s metaverse strategy are driving investment in immersive technologies, Samsung’s re-entry could strengthen local developer ecosystems exploring XR for industry and education.
The “Worlds Wide Open” event will stream live on Samsung.com and YouTube at 10 p.m. ET (5 a.m. Gulf Standard Time) on October 21.

DJI Teases Dual-Camera Osmo Pocket 4P For 2026 Launch
Though most technical claims for the new gimbal come from industry leaks rather than DJI’s own announcement.
DJI has teased a dual-camera version of its Osmo Pocket gimbal, confirming that the Osmo Pocket 4P will launch in 2026. The teaser image is the company’s first preview of the device, following months of speculation about a more advanced model in its pocket camera range.
The image shows a slightly larger device than the existing Osmo Pocket 4, with two camera modules mounted above a compact three-axis gimbal. Reports suggest one camera may use a 1-inch sensor paired with a wide-angle lens, while the second may carry a 3x zoom lens — though DJI has not officially confirmed any of these details.
According to leaks circulating ahead of the launch, the Osmo Pocket 4P could support 4K video at up to 240 frames per second, offer 14 stops of dynamic range and include 10-bit D-Log color support. Those features are commonly used by filmmakers who require greater flexibility during color grading and post-production. Reports also point to Hasselblad color tuning, continuing a partnership that has already appeared in some of DJI’s drone cameras, along with up to 128GB of built-in storage that would reduce reliance on external memory cards during longer shoots.

The device is expected to retain features from the existing Osmo Pocket 4, including a three-axis mechanical gimbal, updated ActiveTrack subject tracking and a flip-out touchscreen display. The Osmo Pocket line is aimed at content creators, vloggers, and independent filmmakers seeking compact equipment that can produce usable footage without a larger camera system.
DJI has not provided pricing or a specific launch date beyond the 2026 window. Industry observers expect the Osmo Pocket 4P to cost more than the standard Pocket 4 because of the dual-camera setup and expanded recording capabilities, though no figures have been disclosed. So far, most of the technical detail circulating around the product remains tied to leaks rather than official confirmation.
