Did you know that it's possible for some phones to be modded? Modding can change the looks and functions of a phone's UI, so you could even avoid bloatware. Samsung isn't a fan of this, but its new Galaxy XR headset could allow custom ROMs.

According to recent reports from ETNews, Samsung is preparing to launch its first Extended Reality (XR) headset, codenamed “Moohan”, on 21 October 2025. This signals Samsung’s entry into the immersive hardware space, aiming to bridge virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR) experiences under one device.

Most folks might not remember, but Samsung used to make VR (virtual reality) headsets back in the 2010s. In December 2024, we finally heard news of a new Samsung XR (eXtended Reality) headset. However, it's only now that we have a likely release window for the product.

It's 2024 and CES (Consumer Electronics Show) is just around the corner. The event will be held from 9 to 12 January this year, ready to unveil a plethora of new tech.

What do virtual reality and the hotel industry have in common? Well, PICO Malaysia has announced a new partnership with Aloft Kuala Lumpur Sentral today. Together, they are thrilled to announce their first-ever Extended Reality (XR) hotel experience in Malaysia. 

If you looked at the Apple Vision Pro and thought, "I need an alternative", you're probably not alone. But besides the Meta Quest series headsets, the other option would be the Samsung Extended Reality (XR) headset, which might not arrive on schedule.
