The XR Week Peek (2025.10.21): Samsung launches its headset tomorrow, Apple refreshes the Vision Pro, and more!

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

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 […]

The XR Week Peek (2025.10.06): Meta launches its display glasses, Apple prepares to launch a refresh of AVP, and more!

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 […]

The XR Week Peek (2025.09.22): A big summary of Meta Connect, Snap and Apple’s glasses update, and more!

This week, I had my Meta Connect experience, and I have to say it was great. There were many amazing XR people, I tried some cool demos, I ate a lot of free food… I really had a good time there. Now that the event is over, I’m still in the US, and I’m writing […]

Meta announces Meta Wearables Device Access Toolkit

After so many rumors about an upcoming “SDK for smartglasses”, Meta finally announced it at today’s Meta Connect. But let’s say that it is not exactly how we imagined it. Let me tell you what has been announced, what is good about it, and what could be better. The announcement of an SDK for smartglasses […]

My predictions for Meta Connect 2025

As you know, this is my first year attending Meta Connect, and I’m pretty excited about it. And even if I have this new thing for me, I want to carry on my old tradition of playing the guessing game about what to expect at this event tomorrow. So here you are, my predictions about […]

The XR Week Peek (2025.09.15): Amazon plans to launch its smartglasses, Nintendo Virtual Boy is back, and more!

This is another newsletter that I’m going to write literally on the fly, because today I’m traveling to the US to attend Meta Connect. So I guess I’ll write part of it in Turin, and part in Paris, where I’ll have my stop before going to San Francisco. Wish me a safe trip!  (Ah and if […]

The XR Week Peek (2025.09.09): Apple may launch Vision Air in 2027, Valve headset may be called “Steam Frame”, and more!

I’m back from China, and while I’m still dizzy from the jet lag, I’m preparing my trip to the US for the next week. I guess I’ll spend the next couple of weeks without realizing what time of day it is…  But I know what time is now: it is the time for some amazing XR […]
