For thise who, like me, needed context:

"Samsung XR" is a VR headset running "Android XR". Being called "XR" I would expect it would have AR abilities but the website makes no mention of it, or even passthrough, that I could see.

The PC is in a passthrough environment with the screen floating in mid air. I use it on a daily basis.

This is our promo video and its very clear it's in XR with passthrough. https://studio.youtube.com/video/At7KdrGfTTg

We also have a number of XR widgets which are not enabled by default (Holodeck for example). They will be turned on soon in a pro version so if thats what you're looking for I am delighted!

Try the download if you don't believe me.

FYI- If you look very closely at the video tile on the bottom left you will see XR inside XR. You can't get that capability anywhere else.
