Branching out from its previous Apple Vision Pro-like aesthetic, Samsung is preparing to launch a new VR headset that looks a lot like the Meta Quest Pro in design.
Lately, Samsung has been taking inspiration from, for lack of a better word, Apple devices. They are the Galaxy Buds3 Pro, which is very similar to the AirPods Pro, and the Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra, which is less similar but similar to the Apple Watch Ultra. Just yesterday, Samsung announced Dynamic Island-like features and the upcoming Galaxy S25 Edge, which looks a bit like the iPhone 16 to me.
After all these recent “coincidences”, one might expect the Samsung VR headset to be similar to the Apple Vision Pro. Although there are some similarities, it looks similar to Meta Quest Pro.
it is
More compact form factor similar to Meta Quest Pro Lighter weight compared to Apple Vision Pro Streamlined profile with less bulk Possibility for a more ergonomic design suitable for extended wear
specification
Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2+ chipset Dual high-resolution displays Multiple camera inputs for tracking Mixed Reality capabilities Android XR operating system
The headset is designed to compete with Meta’s VR platform and offers a more affordable option than Apple’s high-end Vision Pro. The price is expected to be between $800 and $1,200, making it a mid-range mixed reality device.
