Metaverse Revolution: Major Players Set to Transform Digital Worlds
Microsoft is reportedly preparing to challenge Apple’s Vision Pro with a new headset, developed in collaboration with Samsung.
This would position Microsoft alongside other major tech players—Apple, Google, Meta, and Nvidia—all of whom are actively working on advanced metaverse technologies.
According to The Elec, a South Korean news source, Microsoft plans to order large quantities of OLED panels from Samsung for this upcoming device, which is expected to enter mass production by 2026. The new headset will focus on spatial computing rather than virtual reality. While it’s not intended specifically for the metaverse, it will offer enhanced immersive experiences compared to traditional screens.
The term “metaverse” is as expansive as the internet itself, encompassing a variety of digital interactions. Despite some media claims that interest in metaverse technology is waning, the sector is still expanding. Users interact with metaverse applications through various devices, from large displays to compact VR headsets.

Apple is working on a successor to its Vision Pro, while Google is teaming up with Magic Leap to create a new mixed-reality headset, despite previous challenges. Meta continues to invest heavily in its metaverse projects, and Nvidia remains crucial for powering the graphics and AI needed for these digital environments.
If the report from The Elec proves correct, Microsoft’s initiative will bring the total number of top global companies involved in developing new metaverse hardware to five.
