Samsung has officially entered the extended reality (XR) revolution with their newly unveiled Galaxy XR smartphone - an Android XR-enabled device powered by Unity 6 with dedicated support for immersive experiences delivered directly into headsets. This groundbreaking smartphone will deliver groundbreaking experiences directly through Unity 6.
Key Day-One Android XR Apps:

Samsung’s headset, which is codenamed Project Moohan internally but may not launch as such, uses Android XR’s modularity to simultaneously support a range of form factors and make it easier for developers to port existing content into XR. “Unity 6’s Android XR support allowed our team to port big games in a week, as well as architect new experiences such as Inside [JOB],” says Andrew Eiche, CEO of Owlchemy Labs.
With those apps as well as the bonus of Android XR, Samsung’s stance with the Galaxy XR is strong in the mixed-reality arena, both for developers and for consumers that are looking to have a more digital environment from day one.
