A Vision of Wonders
on March 11, 2026
Posted by: GalaxyFan01
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Galaxy XR headset is a great device for designers, and editors that want a close up view of their work. I use the headset for viewing my videos, editing them with the power of Galaxy AI, designing with creative art apps, and watching videos up close. Thanks to this headset, I can finally watch sports up close, and see what's going on. I highly recommend this headset for people that want to work on their art with a new perspective, and visualize their ideas in a 3D virtual workspace.

Amazing product! Especially great with using this for Steam VR games. Wireless 4k OLED for each eye makes Half-Life Alyx come alive!

Video Quality Sample
on February 12, 2026
Posted by: MUTiger Jon
My YouTube link got rejected for some odd reason so will try to upload instead. My purpose is more to demonstrate the audio quality. Video is much better viewing on the headset and the quality is superior to the AVP.

Pretty Good
on February 11, 2026
Posted by: MUTiger Jon
I think this is a good first start for Samsung. I enjoyed my time with it except for the headaches I'd get using it. For most people that won't be a problem, but my sad brain is overly EMF sensitive. I had the same problem with the AVP, so it's not unique to Samsung. Oddly enough, the Quest 3 does not bother me or I wouldn't have tried this one.
I was hoping for a better version of the Quest and this absolutely is that, except for my aforementioned brain sensitivities. I much prefer the Android XR operating system and the XR's hand tracking, although the tracking needs to improve somewhat to match the AVP. I had trouble grabbing items lower on the screen, but in the middle or top, it was fine. I would think this could be improved with future updates.
YouTube videos look and sound great on it and the AVP cannot compete in that department. I thought the pass through video looked better than both the Quest and AVP, but still not what anyone would consider perfect.
I bought the controllers but didn't open them because I knew I couldn't keep it, so I can't compare those to the Quest. The retail price on those is a bit outlandish, but Samsung was offering a deal on them, so that's what finally got me to purchase the device.
All the other early adopter software freebies would've been awesome if I could've kept it. I know the cost is relatively high compared to the Quest, but I think the total bundle is a decent value, especially compared to the AVP.
The AVP has a better processor, but I never felt the XR was sluggish in any way.
I'd read other reviews that mentioned glare and I wondered how that could be. I still don't understand it and It's not terrible, but I did occasionally notice it.
Display quality overall is top notch and on par with the AVP.
Something I've not seen anybody review regarding this device is the video/audio quality of videos taken WITH it. Yes, you can record spatial videos with it. And they look/sound pretty darn cool. The resolution is 1920x1920. They look/sound much better viewing on the headset with added depth you can't get from a 2D monitor. I'll try to post one I did, so you can hear the sound quality. I think it's pretty awesome and wish I could've kept it just for that purpose.

Fantastic and polished UI you can expect from Samsung. Display is beautiful. Consider an aftermarket studiofoam head pad though for longer periods of use.
I would recommend this to a friend!
