Qualcomm announces new chip to power Samsung and Googles competitor to Apple Vision Pro headset
Summary
Qualcomm on Thursday announced a new chip that will be used by Samsung and Google for mixed reality devices that are likely to compete with Apples Vision Pro headset. Qualcomm, Samsung and Google announced a partnership last year to work on mixed-reality devices. Mixed reality allows you to overlay digital content over the real world using a headset. The latest chip, which runs on Android, suggests the companies will choose to release a more affordable headset than Apples $3,499 Vision Pro, which is due to launch early this year. "Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 unlocks 4.3K resolution which will take XR productivity and entertainment to the next level by bringing spectacularly clear visuals to use cases such as room-scale screens, life-size overlays and virtual desktops," said Hugo Swart, vice president and general manager of extended reality at Qualcomm.
