Samsung has announced a key software update for the Galaxy XR. As a result of this development, the extended reality headset now has enterprise-ready capabilities through Android Enterprise support. This includes fully managed device enrollment, enterprise app management via Managed Google Play, core device security features such as remote lock and wipe, and hardware-level protections.
Everyday user enhancements for the Galaxy XR headset are noted — from saveable virtual keyboard positions and desktop session restore that reopens up to three previously used apps after reboot to single eye tracking for accessibility and wall panel alignment for accurate content placement. The device is also capable of auto spatialization, which converts two-dimensional content into immersive three-dimensional photos and videos within Google Chrome and YouTube.
Samsung's software update positions the Galaxy XR as a scalable tool for industries such as training, manufacturing, healthcare, and retail.
