When Google announced the Android XR platform in December, it felt a little rushed, as if Google was trying to prevent OpenAI from getting all the AI attention. OpenAI was in the middle of a two-week-long series of ChatGPT live streams, some more important than others. It was in December that Google also unveiled Gemini 2.5 Pro and its first AI agents.
Fast-forward to mid-May, and we've had many Gemini 2.5 Pro developments this year. But we've hardly seen any Android XR news. Neither Google nor Samsung has addressed the Project Moohan headset shown in December, and we haven’t gotten any updates on Android XR smart glasses from Google, whether for AR or AI-only experiences.
Google did say last week, during its Android 16 event ahead of I/O 2025, that Gemini will become the default assistant on many connected devices, like cars, watches, and TVs. Google also confirmed that Gemini will power Android XR gadgets, which are built around Gemini Live.
Now that Google I/O 2025 is underway in California, we finally have more details about Android XR hardware. Google plans to build stylish smart glasses with select partners. Samsung will also produce smart glasses, alongside the Project Moohan spatial computer.
While there are no release dates yet for the upcoming Android XR hardware, Google did finally showcase more Android XR features that are coming to these devices.
