Samsung’s Android XR headset is a breath of fresh air in the mixed reality space, blending seamless Android integration with high-end hardware that feels premium without breaking the bank. As someone who's dabbled in VR/AR for years, this is the first device that truly makes XR feel accessible and fun for everyday use—whether you're gaming, collaborating in virtual meetings, or just exploring augmented worlds overlaid on your real one. The passthrough cameras are crystal clear, reducing that disorienting "black void" feel from older headsets, and the eye-tracking for foveated rendering keeps things buttery smooth even during intense sessions. Battery life holds up for 2-3 hours of mixed use, which is solid, and the customizable Android UI lets you sideload apps effortlessly. Sure, the strap could be comfier for marathon sessions, and it's a tad bulky compared to slimmer competitors, but at this price point, it's an absolute steal. If you're on Android, this is your XR gateway drug—highly recommended!
