Android XR — Process

Role: watch item for 2027. Not a season-one surface.

Market notes (Sept 2026)

• Samsung Galaxy XR (October 2025) is the first Android XR headset; glasses from XREAL and others are promised but not shipping at scale.
• Engine support: Unity 6.x with the OpenXR: Android XR package (Unity 6.5 beta for the newest features); Unreal via the Android XR vendor plugin (5.6.1 developer preview); Godot also supported.

If adopted

Reuse the Quest build: OpenXR, Optimized character, mobile renderer; add Android XR vendor plugin; test hand and eye tracking; manage devices through an MDM that supports Android XR.
