The XR Week Peek (2025.11.03): Google partners with Magic Leap, Meta had an internal restructuring, and more!

The XR Week Peek (2025.11.03): Google partners with Magic Leap, Meta had an internal restructuring, and more!

The past week has not been the most exciting one in the XR space. After both Apple and Google fired their shots in the previous two weeks, nothing incredibly relevant happened. But these are pretty interesting times for me, at least: I shipped my project (fingers crossed), I’m traveling to Hamburg to speak at the […]

The XR Week Peek (2025.10.27): Samsung releases Galaxy XR, Apple the M5 Vision Pro, and more!

I’m crunching like hell for a project I have to deliver these days. But don’t worry, I’m still getting you covered by writing my usual roundup of news to keep you informed about what is happening in the XR space. Who needs sleep, anyway?  (By the way, next Sunday I’m traveling to Germany to be a […]

The 9 most important takeaways from today’s Galaxy XR event

The 9 most important takeaways from today’s Galaxy XR event

Today, Samsung hosted a special event to launch Galaxy XR, its first standalone Mixed Reality headset, built with Google and Samsung. I have watched the live stream (and tweeted a lot about it), and these have been the main key points for me. Galaxy XR launched for $1799 We have been waiting for months to […]

I’m a bit crunching these days trying to deliver a thing… I’ll probably talk about it with you in case things go as I hoped for. Cross your fingers for me! Anyway, notwithstanding my lack of sleep, I’m always committed to send you the most relevant XR news of the week… so keep reading to […]

The new M5 Vision Pro is boring, but it may be the right move for Apple

The new M5 Vision Pro is boring, but it may be the right move for Apple

Today, Apple has announced the launch of the new Vision Pro… which is basically the same as the old one. It’s a pretty disappointing move for us all, but I think that, at the end of the day, it may be a good move for Apple. Let’s see why. The new old Apple Vision Pro […]

The XR Week Peek (2025.10.13): Valve is ramping up the production of Steam Frame, Apple is prioritizing smartglasses, and more!

It’s been a nice week for me. I’ve also been honored by seeing the publication of the episode of the AI/XR Podcast where I have been a guest of three legends like Charlie Fink, Ted Schilowitz, and Rony Abovitz. I was pretty excited, and I hope I managed to say something smart. If you are […]

Ben Lang gives us great lessons about XR journalism, marketing, and technology

I have finally managed to interview one of my favorite people in XR: Benjaming Lang, the OG founder of Road To VR. He started with XR even before Oculus was a thing, and over these 14 years of his career, he has informed the XR community about what was happening in the space. He’s one […]

These days, I’m keeping myself busy with a couple of projects. No trips are on sight for October, because I need to recover.  But I’m happy to announce that I’m supporting XRCC again as a media partner, because it’s one of the best hackathons we have in the AR/VR ecosystem. The new XRCC Online version is […]

The XR Week Peek (2025.09.30): Meta bets on Horizon Worlds on mobile, Meta opens physical stores, and more!

I’m back in Italy, after a very long and complex trip back from the US (I had a stop of 13 hours in Paris!). Now I have a few weeks when I’ll stay at home in Italy, and can dedicate myself a bit more to my development job. I think it’s going to be also […]

Meta Horizon Hyperscape Capture review: an impressive way to capture and teleport to places

Meta Horizon Hyperscape Capture review: an impressive way to capture and teleport to places

The Ray-Ban Meta Display has been the most discussed device at Meta Connect, but another piece of technology that was announced at Connect impressed me much more than the new smartglasses. I’m talking about Meta Horizon Hyperscape Capture, which is probably one of the most mindblowing things I’ve tried lately… and I’m not someone easy […]
