Samsung Galaxy XR headset review: Immersive VR experience for Android
Samsung just dropped the Galaxy XR headset (October 2025), letting you turn regular photos and videos in Google Photos into immersive 3D memories.
The device competes with Apple's Vision Pro, offering similar immersive photo features for Android users, and now Android users can dive into their photo libraries with a whole new depth.
Specs and features
The Galaxy XR packs dual 4K micro-OLED screens, a Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 chip, and it's loaded with 12 cameras (2 passthrough, 6 world-facing, 4 eye-tracking), four eye-tracking sensors, and six microphones.
You get hand, eye, and voice control, plus Gemini AI for smart features like Circle to Search.
Battery lasts up to 2.5 hours of video, and it's priced at $1,799.99.
Lighter than Vision Pro, but still packs a punch
Galaxy XR costs less than Apple Vision Pro and supports a wider range of Android apps—think YouTube, Netflix, Google Maps, and even tools for creating spatial content.
It's lighter too, making it a pretty appealing pick if you want affordable, next-gen VR for Android without missing out on big features.
