The Snapdragon XR2 Plus Gen 2 is a chipset destined for high-end VR headsets, offering 4K image rendering for each eye.
A year after Qualcomm, Samsung, and Google announced, uh, something VR-related, one potential component of the project is coming into focus: the Snapdragon XR2 Plus Gen 2. The new chipset is designed as a step up from the XR2 Gen 2 in the Meta Quest 3, capable of rendering high-resolution visuals like the ones promised by Apple’s Vision Pro. The XR2 Plus Gen 2 supports 4.3K resolution at 90fps per eye, which is a cut above the XR2 Gen 2’s 3K-per-eye rendering.
” Qualcomm is offering an AR and VR reference design to help OEMs fast-track production and says it’s working with at least five hardware makers, including HTC. The company also highlights its aforementioned partnership with Samsung and Google prominently as part of this announcement — but concrete availability details are still scarce. Google has faced some internal turmoil on its AR team, and reports suggest that Samsung has experienced delays on the hardware side, too.
