Samsung’s contribution to the metaverse
Samsung’s AR devices will run on the company’s new generation Exynos application processors (AP) and Google Android OS. As per the industry insiders, the company is working in close cooperation with DigiLens, a U.S based company that is specialized in augmented reality technology.
Samsung Electronics has completed the development but the release time is adjusted and being delayed to the second half of the year 2022. Last month we have heard the news that Samsung is developing a dedicated handset to work with the technology, partnering with Microsoft.
Samsung wants to enter the metaverse device market through two key tracks. The first one is an AR device with its own brand, and the second one is to launch the together with Microsoft technology.
Apple’s contribution to the metaverse
Apple is known to have recently completed a test on a Virtual Reality headset for launch, it will also be launched by the end of the year 2022. Talking about the Apple VR device is loaded with a micro-organic light-emitting diode.
Apple has already completed the development of the VR device with Taiwan’s TSMC. The micro-LED display technology does not require a color filter. It is smaller, thinner, and powerfully efficient. Apple is going to use its own M1 chip for the VR headset. Which is obviously to be powered by the iOS operating system.
Meta’s contribution to the metaverse
We all know Meta, formally known as Facebook is developing a new metaverse hardware product, loaded with the micro OLED display, a Qualcomm Application Processor, and Google Android OS. Microsoft developing smart glasses that are to be powered by a Qualcomm AP and hologram technology.
Tech Giants developing Metaverse technologies
An increasing no. of tech firms are focusing on the metaverse. According to the market research firm IDC, the global VR and AR device market will grow by 92.1 percent by 2026.
Currently, Oculus Quest 2 is having a market share of 78%, which is the virtual reality headset of the Meta Platform Subsidiary a stand-alone device that requires no smartphone insertion, and the new device from Samsung Electronics is likely to be the same type. We will be enriching you with all the updates that are going to come in the upcoming days.

Samsung has unveiled two new battery packs with powerful performance using recycled materials. The launch, scheduled for the 19th, introduces the PD Battery Pack 20,000 mAh and the PD Wireless Charging Battery Pack 10,000 mAh. Both of these battery incorporate 30% UL-certified recycled plastic in their design, marking a stride in reducing carbon emissions.
The ‘PD Battery Pack 20,000 mAh’ offers a high capacity for charging, with a maximum output of 45W and three USB-C ports, allowing for simultaneously charging multiple devices. However, the actual charging speed may vary based on several factors, including the devices connected and charging conditions.
On the other hand, the ‘PD Wireless Charging Battery Pack 10,000 mAh’ provides the convenience of wireless charging, along with a wired charging capability of up to 25W. It comes with two USB-C ports, making it possible to charge up to three devices at once when combining wired and wireless charging.
Both battery packs comply with the USB PD 3.0 standard, ensuring quick and efficient charging for Samsung Galaxy products and other compatible devices.
The LPDDR6 market is expected to bloom as early as next year, as the new on-device AI memory is on the way with the latest LPDDR6 standard finalization taking place in Q3 2024. If the standard is confirmed in the third quarter, LPDDR will secure a new standard for the first time in five years.
Going toward the details, the International Semiconductor Standard Organization (JEDEC) recently held discussions on the next-generation mobile RAM standard. The meeting proceeded with the finalization process to finalize the LPDDR6 standard.
An official in the semiconductor industry said,
- “We have held various discussions to confirm the LPDDR6 standard specification,” and it will be released in the third quarter of this year.”
To be mentioned, the JEDEC is a private organization that establishes semiconductor standards, that is, sizes and specifications, and more than 60 people from memory, system semiconductor, and design asset (IP) companies participated in this Lisbon meeting.

Furthermore, the LPDDR6 standard will be established with a focus on improving data processing performance as the demand for on-device AI to perform large-scale AI calculations on smartphones, laptops, and tablet PCs is rapidly increasing. In addition, the power consumption standard will also be improved.
However, once the LPDDR6 standard is confirmed, major memory manufacturers such as Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix are expected to begin commercializing their products in earnest.
