TL;DR
- Samsung’s newly released $1,800 Galaxy XR headset includes support for bootloader unlocking.
- Unlike competitors like Meta Quest or Apple Vision Pro, this makes the Galaxy XR uniquely accessible for enthusiasts and developers.
- It’s unclear whether this was intended by Samsung or an oversight that will be patched, but it opens doors for custom ROMs and other software mods.
Samsung just launched the Project Moohan headset this week, rebranding it as the Samsung Galaxy XR. It’s the first Android XR headset that people can buy, so there’s a lot of excitement behind the product despite its $1,800 price tag. It seems Samsung has given users one more reason to be excited: bootloader unlocking.
