How to watch the Samsung Galaxy XR launch – all the release details for Project Moohan at last

Samsung's Android XR headset – Project Moohan.

Samsung will finally launch its first Android XR headset today, with a live streamed Galaxy Event expected to be dedicated to the long-awaited device.

Codenamed Project Moohan, the headset has been teased since the Samsung Galaxy S25 launch in January, so it's taken a while for it to be fully ready for public consumption.

However, we'll finally get to see the finished model and the experiences it will bring.

You can watch it all unfold live above, although those in the UK might baulk at the 3am start time – it's due to kick off at 10pm EDT in the States.

Here's everything you need to know for now.

What to expect during Samsung's Android XR Galaxy Event

Samsung has been very clear about its October Galaxy Event – it's to launch the company's first XR headset.

Called Project Moohan for the last year, the headset is the result of a collaboration between Google, Qualcomm and Samsung itself, of course. It will be a direct rival to the Apple Vision Pro and will be the first premium device to run on Google's new Android XR platform.

We'll no doubt find out all the gritty details during the launch event, and that should include its final name. Current thinking is that it'll be called the Samsung Galaxy XR.

As for price, you should expect it to be in the premium category – well over £1,000 therefore (possibly even £2K).
