If you’re a Samsung fan and have $1,800 burning a hole in your pocket, the South Korean tech giant just announced a brand new way for you to spend that money. On Tuesday, Samsung announced the Galaxy XR as its long-awaited XR headset to rival the Apple Vision Pro.
As a VR/XR headset in the current market, the Galaxy XR does look promising. It’s got impressive hardware, capable specs, and powerful software with Android XR. But at the end of the day, the Galaxy XR is still very expensive. The headset itself costs $1,800, and if you buy the controllers and carrying case, you’re looking at an additional $500.
