The Samsung XR headset project has been an open secret for some time, but a new report suggests it has finally settled on a design we’ll see in 2025. The bad news? It could be landing later in the year than we’d like and might not be as ‘XR’ as we had hoped.

Samsung plans to launch AR smart glasses in 2025, featuring Ray-Ban Meta-like design, Qualcomm chipset, AI tools, and advanced AR/VR capabilities.

There’s no precise word on how much they’ll cost when they launch, but Xiaomi is known for producing more affordable tech than its better-known rivals, so we expect its smart specs to start at less than Meta Ray-Ban’s $299 / £299 / AU$449 starting price.

Extended Reality device has been in the news for quite some time. However, till now it was not clear what could be the exact device or when it would come. Finally, some reports have highlighted that the company will come up with similar Ray-Ban Meta sunglasses.
