Today we launched our first #AndroidXR device, working as one team with @SamsungMobile and @Qualcomm. Samsung’s #GalaxyXR offers high fidelity displays and natural input; great for watching immersive movies and sports, 3D/2D gaming, bringing your photos and videos to life, or being productive. With #Gemini by your side and access to all your Google Play apps, you can ask questions and get things done on an infinite display with just a conversation. youtube.com/watch?v=ITXJqu…

@SamsungMobile @Qualcomm

Amazing time at #AWE2025! Met so many partners and had the chance to talk about the momentum behind #AndroidXR , the incredible collaborations with @SamsungMobile and @Qualcomm and about scaling the ecosystem. See Google's keynote: youtube.com/watch?v=lowVrE…

.@HugoSwart_G is on stage for @Google to talk #AndroidXR on stage at #AWE2025 as a walk-in for the @Qualcomm keynote.

When I got up this morning I had no clue I would be invited to see Jeremy Bailensen speak at Stanford University. He runs Stanford’s Holodeck research. XR/AR/VR. Here he shares the latest research. Exclusive to X. This talk changed several things I thought I knew about the future. Out in the hallway we were talking and an engineer who is working on Google’s glasses warned me that Google’s lightweight glasses will not ship this year that they showed off at Google IO. He says they need another year to ship those, that @XREAL_Global will start with a “middle weight” that has beautiful color screens but that you won’t wear to the shopping mall. Coming later this year. And with a heavier weight one that competes with Apple Vision Pro, coming around Christmas. Meta comes in October with a light weight pair that you can wear everywhere. Think of a Rayban that has a display in one eye. And that Apple will have a new Vision Pro that will be lighter than the first one, coming around Christmas, so expect it to ship in first half of next year. Google has a two year lead on Apple in AI, maybe more, which we already knew. Translation: the future of Holodecks is still out there. This talk is important.

NEW VIDEO - I Tried Samsung's Secret Android XR Headset, and it was awesome. Think of it as the Nexus/Pixel of headsets. Full of smart software features like this. Coming this year. Full video: youtu.be/az5QL_NLBvg

This is incredible... 🎉 🎉 🎉 @NimoPlanet partners with @RokidGlobal to Enhance Spatial Productivity Experience. Nimo 1 Core and Nimo OS work incredibly great with Rokid Max Glasses. Thanks to everyone who worked to make this deep integration 🎉 " You have the chance to join our Early Bird Pre-order ($399) at nimoplanet.com/core1 if you own a Rokid Max Glasses (First 1000 customers only). New customers can order Nimo Core + Rokid Max at $799." Nimo 1 Core Users highlight the heaviness and high cost of Apple Vision Pro, while Nimo's ultra-portable and comfortable Spatial Computer for Productivity is gaining traction among those seeking mobility. Nimo 1 Core is a compact device, roughly the size of an AirPods Pro case. The spatial computer comes with Nimo 1 OS, which has a custom rendering system designed to save resources, reducing CPU/GPU and memory usage. With this feature, Nimo OS can enable multiple Android Apps, Unity Apps, and Web Apps to be positioned simultaneously in varying depths. This allows for up to six high-fidelity 3D screens to be rendered within the physical world. Additionally, Nimo OS supports Stereotype Videos and Photos. Thanks to @HugoSwart_QCOM from @Qualcomm and other partners who believe in our vision. The Nimo 1 Core is powered by a @Snapdragon XR2 8-core processor, 8GB RAM, 128GB Storage, WiFi 6, and Bluetooth 5.1. More partnerships are coming... nimo-planet-inc.prowly.com/287685-nimo-pl… #spatialcomputing #spatial #rokid #nimoplanet #applevisionpro #ai #augmentedreality #mixedreality #futureofwork #productivity

With #Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 we’re unlocking the next evolution of what’s possible in #XR with a 4.3K Resolution per eye, improved on-device #AI, and more. But, as @Tech Crunch notes, “Qualcomm will keep the existing chips in production” - including XR2 Gen1. It’s important to us that we keep the Snapdragon XR ecosystem available to all levels of hardware partners and developers. techcrunch.com/2024/01/04/qua…
