According to a report from SBS Biz, Samsung's upcoming XR (extended reality) headset, originally scheduled for launch in February 2024, has been delayed by 3-6 months. Korean sources indicate that the delay is due to Samsung revising the features and design of the headset in response to the capabilities of Apple's Vision Pro, which has pushed back the launch timeline.
While Samsung is reassessing the specifications and design of its XR headset, it appears that Apple is also facing challenges with its Vision Pro. Reports suggest that Apple is encountering production issues, leading to a revision of its initial goal of selling 1 million units in the first month of release.
Additionally, there are rumors indicating that Apple plans to implement a slow rollout for the Vision Pro, making it available for purchase by appointment only.
Given the competition between Samsung and Apple in the tech industry, it is possible that Samsung may develop a competitor to Apple's Vision Pro. However, without specific information or official announcements, it remains speculative to predict Samsung's exact plans for a potential rival XR headset.
