Google unveils Android XR and Gemini 2.0 with Samsung collaboration
Google announced its new Android XR operating system, designed for smart glasses and XR headsets, in partnership with Samsung and Qualcomm. The platform will launch with Samsung's Project Moohan in 2025, allowing users to switch between virtual and real environments. Gemini 2.0 was also unveiled, enhancing Google's AI capabilities. This update allows Gemini to better understand and interact with the world, completing complex tasks and visualizing surroundings, which will support projects like Project Astra. Rumors suggest the Galaxy S25 series may support Qi2 wireless charging, but it might only be available through compatible cases, not built into the phones. This would allow for faster charging but may limit accessibility for some users.
