The Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 1 Platform enables device makers to create more immersive XR experiences in thinner and lighter devices. Featuring 30% improved thermal performance - more concurrent perception technologies, AI-advancements and low latency Wi-Fi 6 combine to transform passive viewing into active, full-sensory VR and MR experiences.

The Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 1 Platform enables state-of-the art interactions with 50% higher sustained power vs. the previous generation. Support for more concurrent perception technologies including 3D reconstruction, head tracking, hand tracking, eye tracking and video see through – helps to bring new levels of realism to XR experiences.

Now, you can get the best of both worlds—figuratively. True mixed reality blends your virtual and physical environments so you can be fully immersed in VR content while maintaining awareness of the world around you. Mixed reality uses 3D video pass-through to allow convergence of realities—where VR and AR can coexist in one device and the user can toggle between levels of immersion. This allows them to maintain situational awareness of their real environment without removing their headset.

When AI and XR unite, your devices ultimately create a world that revolves around you. They will learn about you with every unique interaction, getting smarter over time and gradually becoming more predictive and constructive. That means your XR experiences will be more customized and engaging while getting better at meeting your needs and desires. Plus, AI efficiency accounts for massive power savings and optimized performance.

With support for 8K 360° video, the Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 1 Platform opens up opportunities for a new generation of fully immersive and highly interactive video content. This staggering resolution eliminates nearly all pixilation, even when zoomed in, and pushes image quality for stronger sensory experiences. Plus, a rate of 60 fps allows high-definition rendering of slow-motion replays or movie scenes, letting viewers see quadruple the detail in crisp, clear quality.

Designed to make virtual assistance and interactive experiences more responsive than ever, always-on voice activation makes sure the device can hear voice commands, even in busy environments with heavy background noise. Contextual awareness provides an added layer of confidence and safety by letting users focus on their XR experience while the device monitors their real environment by distinguishing noises from the user's background that may require attention, such as a crying baby or ringing doorbell, and will prompt the user accordingly —all while using low power.
