Samsung's latest Galaxy XR controllers are creating buzz, not because they reinvent VR, but because they keep vanishing before most people can click buy.

Samsung and Apple are stepping into the ring with their most ambitious mixed-reality headsets yet, each taking radically different approaches to the future of spatial computing. Two headsets.

Available since September 30th at $799, they are Meta's boldest step yet into wearable computing, complete with the innovative Neural Band controller.

When Magic Leap stepped onto the stage at the Future Investment Initiative in Riyadh, something in the AR landscape shifted. Not just another product reveal. A company saying out loud that the future of augmented reality is not about building everything in-house, it is about building together.
