Watch the Samsung Galaxy XR launch event right here

Apple launched its Vision Pro over two years ago, and while the company’s mixed-reality headset has had a few bumps along the way, that still represents a big lead it has over anything similar for Android’s ecosystem. But now it’s finally time to start catching up, and after its own series of seemingly interminable teasers, we’re ready to enter the era of Android XR with Samsung formally introducing its Galaxy XR headset.

We’ve been tracking this hardware since last year, when we knew it by its codename, Project Moohan. We got our first look at it in action in January, and after months and months of additional hardware and software leaks, finally heard about it getting that Galaxy XR name just last month.

Finally, last week Samsung announced its “Worlds Wide Open” event for today, October 21, where the company intends to fully unveil Galaxy XR in all its glory.

The timing of this event is a little unusual, at least for many of us living in the West, with Samsung streaming things live tonight at 10pm EDT (3am BST, 7:30am IST, 7pm PDT). But if you intend to be awake for Samsung’s news, you can watch the stream as it unfolds, right here:

We’ve still got a few hours to go before festivities kick off, and if you think you might be at all tempted by this inaugural Android XR hardware, you might as well make this big purchase a little easier on yourself. Go ahead and register now with Samsung in order to secure yourself a $100 discount if you do end up going through with it.

You can also stream Samsung’s presentation on the company’s website or directly in its YouTube channel. And once you’ve heard the news for yourself, don’t forget to check out the rest of our coverage for even more details and hands-on reactions to the Galaxy XR launch.
