Vivo to Launch Mixed Reality Headset in 2025, Competing with Apple Vision Pro and Samsung’s Project Moohan

The tip was posted on Weibo (translated from Chinese) by a tipster named Digital Chat Station. The source says, that the Vivo MR headset will be comparable to the Apple Vision Pro, but will challenge the Apple Vision Pro with more features. The first prototype should be ready by September, and it plans to roll out “high-fidelity prototype experiences” in several Chinese cities by the end of next year. But the official release date still isn’t set in stone.

A Vivo executive said the release will depend on when supporting content ecosystems are ready. The announcement comes after Vivo confirmed that it has been working on the MR headset during the Vivo Imaging Conference, which was held in July 2024. The latter, however, is not expected to launch until 2025, as teased by Yu Meng, Vivo’s Vice President of Imaging during the conference.

Meanwhile, Google unveiled a fresh operating system for extended reality (XR) devices—AR, VR, MR— earlier this month. The new Android XR OS will feature AI-powered functionalities, including the Gemini AI assistant, allowing users to interact with it and ask questions about objects and locations within their field of view. Additionally, it will support the Circle to Search feature, offering visual lookups with a gesture. Google has already made the first developer preview of Android XR available for developers to start working on apps and games for upcoming XR-powered devices.
