Apple Vision Pro was definitely a groundbreaking innovation, I would say. With that, it was pretty obvious that Samsung would have to come up with something even better to compete. Enter Project Moohan, Samsung’s mixed reality headset. According to the latest leaks, this new headset might outdo Apple’s Vision Pro, which already boasts an impressive 2MP per eye display. Exciting, right? Let’s break it down.
Project Moohan Overview
We were expecting Samsung to reveal something about Project Moohan at MWC 2025; sadly, the company said nothing. But there are a few things we know about this project recently.
What’s the fuss about?
What sets Samsung apart from everyone is that the Project Moohan will come with a 1.35-inch micro-OLED display boasting a staggering 3,800 pixels per inch resolution. That’s a major leap compared to Vision Pro’s 2MP per eye. The screen specs seem pretty close to Sony’s SRH-S1, which has a 3,552 x 3,840 resolution, 1000-nits brightness, 96% DCI-P3 color gamut, and a smooth 90Hz refresh rate.
Moohan will also have a 4% better color accuracy than the Vison Pro. Moreover, it is going to use the OLED on Silicon (OLEDoS) tech, which is pretty next-gen too, as it applies micro-OLED elements directly to a silicon base. This will make for better overall quality, especially with brighter and more accurate colors. Samsung plans to ship 100,000 Moohan headsets to start, with cheaper models on the way down the line, potentially featuring 2.1-inch screens with a 1,700 ppi pixel density.

When will it be available?
This is where things get a little vague. According to reports, Sony is starting to mass-produce OLEDOs panels ( I mentioned above), which will then ship to Samsung. So, there is a lot of work to be done, which means we won’t get to see Project Moohan anytime soon. There were earlier rumors that Samsung wanted to launch the headset in 2023, but those plans apparently got delayed once they saw how the Vision Pro performed. We’ll probably have to wait until the next Galaxy Unpacked event this summer for Samsung to drop more details. But one thing’s for sure that this XR headset is going to be a serious contender for Apple’s Vision Pro. Can’t wait to see how it all unfolds!
