Two important notes: The older model now supports 120Hz as well. And you’ve shown the Nintendo Switch with the Airs plugged in directly. This isn’t possible. Figured your viewers might want to know that. Also to keep in mind: The Beam doesn’t support 120Hz, as it’s utilising 72Hz for the 'spatial' stuff. Also when using the Beam, you’ll have slight input latency for gaming and HUD elements can appear jittery when the spatial window adapts to your movements. (Source: I got a pair of these + Beam.)

It's very rare that I'll see a piece of tech hardware I have virtually no use for, but really really want it anyway. This is one of those occasions.

This is what Google Glass should have been! I feel like we are getting into the golden age of AR wearable tech and I love this!

As someone who has nevern cared or even thought about buying wearable tech this seems legit very cool. I hate travelling and being able to relax as much as possible without hurting my neck looking at screens sounds like an absolute life saver.

We appreciate your reviews. Keep up the good work.

These look amazing, that guy really knows how to sell his product. Might get these for myself as a Christmas present...

great interview. i'm definitely considering the xreal air 2, looks awesome. it would be super cool if the airs could do the screen pinning without the beam, either with just a cellphone and a little bit of hardware in the glasses, or if cell phones had the hardware built in. if i were pj i'd entertain the idea of licensing or wholesale selling the xreal beam hardware/software stack to samsung, and maybe to apple too. would be a selling feature of phones for sure if you could plug in glasses and pin the image off to the side of your vision, and maybe save that config/setup so you could quickly get to that setting with a buttonpress on the glasses or phone. it would literally be like google glass, without costing 1000$, - you could use it while riding a bike, running, etc. it would really be cool if the xreal beam functionality was just baked into all modern cellphones.

I'm glad there are still companies like these out there.

It's very nicely made. A huge step forward indeed. I wonder when we could have a pair of AR glasses as superb as XReal that could interact with users and the real world via visuals and hand gestures. Now, its just a beautiful display for your devices like mobile phones, computers, etc.

I am starting to think that most channels who review those glasses gets paid to do it by manufacturers script. The reality is far from what it is shown in most of those videos. I bought Air 2 Pro, and it is a lot of fiddling to make them work, and they do not work like in the advertisement or this videos. It is not much of an AR, it is basically a monitor. Also if your phone, pc or game console does not have a full featured USB 3.0 type C it will not connect wired, it will if you have Beam Air it will connect wirelessly. But you need to have it paired to your wifi, but your phone can of course be a hot spot if you want to go outside with it. And if you want to do something fun with it you need that Nebula app and that is only in few selected countries. And the worst thing is the picture you get tend to float away from you and it has blurred edges. But if you are a tech nerd like me it is a cool apparatus and is fun to play with, but AR are still far from being what we want it to be. And there must be a better way to adjust the picture you are getting. Like in side view mode you need to be able to adjust the size of the picture and even rotate it. You can´t see anything what´s going on with those 4 squares...

These glasses look super cool! Will get a pair for myself 😎

Great video. Never even thought about the drone aspect.

Im really looking forward to the new version of these glasses. I had to return the old one cause of their app problem and extreamly hard to wear when I want to lay down

when watching a movie (say for long flights) - can you connect air pods or the built in speakers work well despite the ambient noise from the plane?

Wish there was a resolution bump for office stuff, but that denser screen is a good step

these might just be the future of gaming and office work - i keep thinking about how to maximize comfortable when i'm literally on the computer for like 10 hrs a day working/gaming. this + a split keyboard might be just the solution im looking for.

Thanks for the top quality content 🙏🙏🙏

Great Video, Thanks chap. Do you know if they will sell it on multiple amazon sites or just US and UK? Thanks

I have the v1 and love them! Use them all the time. Should I upgrade?

To confirm: these aren’t wirelessly screen sharing right? I love these for the idea of travel and while using a cord is fine, definitely looking forward to being able to use these wirelessly with your phone

Great hardware but software support is the issue. I own the original airs and I am still waiting for them to fix the virtual desktop software that was broken by the latest Mac OS update. Focus on getting the software working before releasing new hardware.

I bought mines after i saw your video last year, I get them from Japan because no shipping to Norway 😅 I use them mostly for my steam deck and next week for my lenovo legion go, but i think is not worth it the upgrade ,thank you very much for the video 🤩👍🏼

Seems like they really focused on the issues with the first batch. I had to get my ear part replaced because it cracked. However they literally sent an ups to come pick it up from my house with no charge. I was really surprised and skeptical honestly. I doubt that will last forever but I thought it was worth noting. The nose piece was very uncomfortable especially depending on your face shape. I would recommend them. I use them for my Steam deck. I just wish there was a way to charge my devices while using the glasses. Kinda wish they talked about the FOV. If the display was just a but bigger. It would aliviate so many issues. But either I missed it or they didn’t say. But too bad they had no app for iOS. There are updates I can’t do since I don’t have a pc. But regardless if your thinking of getting this go for it. I told 8 people at work about it and they all got it and love it

I hope they come out with the air3 with everything else built-in like the 3 display modes from the Xreal Beam and HDMI adaptor to plug into your gaming/work desktop.

I have the first model and I think I’d rather wait another generation or two before I upgrade. The main thing I want is proper spacial computing within the glasses, without the need for the Beam. The only compelling thing to me in this iteration is the dimming function of the pro model, because that’s something I really wanted. But it’s not enough of a reason to upgrade

Hi. Nice video thanks @TheTechChap. I am seeking AR glasses that can project actual AR on them (i.e. overlay a future building plan to be seen overlaid on an empty site) rather than just watching a movie or playing a game. Do these glasses have sensors (esp IMU) to know where someone is looking in real space? If not, does this exist in a “glasses” form, rather than VR headsets? Any pointers are appreciated. Thanks!

Looks like a must have College essential thing but will wait for more reviews

I have ordered these can’t wait to see them.

this has to be one of the most articulate person that i have heard in some time

can they be adjusted for pupil distance, or is that fixed? ie if your pupils are further apart than what this is setup for then youre going to be slightly cross eyed to see the screens which will cause massive eye fatigue after a while.

I’ve only had my pair of xreal glasses version 1 for like 2 months! If I knew that the second version was coming out I would have just waited lol but I’m still happy with my version 1s

P.J. I think this product is so exciting! I am visually impaired and I purchased the first generation with very high hopes. Unfortunately I am one of those people that the additional eyeglass fitment will not work for my particular ailment. I would love to revisit using the new Xreal 2 pros if there could be some software adjustments to App that could allow people with visual impairments to adjust the font size. Like you can using accessibility features on your phone.I kept having to readjust mine on my face and it kept turning them off. It was so close to being a miracle for someone like myself. Keep up the good work 👍

How good (or bad) is it for office use? Is text crisp? Can it display multiple monitors?

Thank you for the insightful video! I recently purchased AR glasses for my research and I'm looking for a compatible Android tablet to enhance the experience. Since I use an iPhone 12 and can't use the Nebula app, I'm planning to buy an Android tablet specifically for that purpose. Any recommendations for the best-fit tablet to pair with AR glasses?

Hi do you think it’s worth going for the pro model for the dimming lenses, would be using it for gaming and movies in a well lit room. Looking at the video 35% and 100% dimming looked very dark. Would like to see what’s around me when using this.

The electronic shutter is really cool not gonna lie. I'm starting to envision how these with something like the steam deck and wireless keyboard and mouse could make a neat laptop replacement for coffee shop coding. Too bad the euro prices are still quite expensive.

These glasses are amazing!!!

These look so awesome! I’ve been wanting something like this for my legion go. The only thing I worry about is how it affects the performance of games? The finals already struggle a bit with the fps, how is it on this screen? I also wonder if there is any bad input lag with it? And could someone explain to me the FOV on this? Does it really matter? It’s just a “virtual screen” like you would use an external monitor right? So the FOV slider in game is what matters anyways I would assume?

is it possible to increase the size of the virtual screen? like zoom in/out ?

that "stationary" cycling cut scene had me in stitches

Crazy good video. Mine will be here in two days

Hey , if you’re editing in VR, can the computer screen be tracked to one spot or does it follow your head?

Do always need the cable? Or it can connect like you can use it as wierless?

I have the original pair, and I got the XReal Beam, and I've recently been using them while mowing my law. So long as it isn't too bright of a day, I can see the screen fine using the side view. I'm seriously contemplating this new Pro model so I can use the dimmer on it to make it even easier to use. I'll be using them the shovel the snow here soon!

Curious about the new Xreal air 2 pros, I gave the nreal airs, rokid max, and viture ones a try over the past year or two and they weren't comfortable on my nose, also I couldn't get a good fit so that the screen was fully visible. Additionally I've got a pixel 7 so can't use it with that either (which doesn't appear to have been resolved with the 2 pros, damn you google).

@Thetechchap what is the resolution when you have 3 screens from your macbook laptop?

I have the original nreal air which gets a bjt warm after a while.. do these improve on the cooling?

Lol at the 'exclusive'! Right next to your thumbnail was Techspurt's reviewing the exact same things.... 🤣

Can my prescription lens that I ordered for my xreal 1 glasses work for the xreal 2 pros

This is the future of multimedia content consumption 😎

Do you test Nebula for MAC? It is currently not available for Air2 .. When do they update Nebula for MAC supporting Air2?

Mind-blowing. I didn't know such technology already exists!

Not sure if you're going to answer but does it work with multiple screens on windows pc and if so how many max screens I can have at a time?

when connected to your phone, do notifications appear on the glasses?

Would you use it for work to replace a 3 monitor setup?

Quick question, when is the xreal pro2 release on Amazon. Cause I can't find it

Awesome I can't wait to get mine

Hello, when will there be the possibility to order the XREAL AIR 2 PRO at Amazon Germany? Currently, only the XREAL AIR is listed here via Amazon Germany.

I'll be very interested once these are capable of QHD. I want them for desktop computing on the go with minimal weight.

Since I've never had a VR set before, can it adjust "diopter" value or something? (like in DSLR viewfinders) bcoz I don't need glasses to see far, but now I need glasses for reading letters... thanks

I have the original and as much as i live them not sure if I'll be upgrading cause mine wont connect to my steamdeck or rog ally i get sound but no image i do like the pros dimming feature

ooo was gonna get the air 1's in a few days, didnt know there was a 2 and 2 pro coming

It would be nice if I can connect the same to my Xbox and I can watch movies.the view in this glasses with 130inch Virtual screen and sound from my home theater with Dolby Atmos now that's really a game changer... hopefully waiting for that one so I can have the best experience back home 😉

Great review. How easy/hard is it to read text on websites if being used as a pc display?

Any possible promo code getting revealed?

How does it work with windows 11 for productivity apps? Mainly thinking of how snapping windows works, whether we can create more displays etc.

I just bought the Air in Aug and got my prescription lenses made only yesterday to fit in this🤦‍♂️. i wish i waited a month. But honestly, device apart, Nebula has stopped working on my Mobiles with the latest upgrade. If you guys can look into software it is truly going to be useful beyond being a large heads up monitor that it is now. I had bought the original ones from your review.

Hi are the pros completely clear when on the clear option (you can see everything through) or are they the same as the original airs? As with the original airs the actual micro Oled displays were also tinted slightly

Been following nreal for years, waiting for the first truly wireless version to launch (my guess the 3rd gen will be the one to buy) along with some real XR compatibility beyond just a screen.

I love that in the caption he actually shows the image with blurry corners. It's a XReal paid me to not say anything about it but hey, here is the hint.

i don't know if I should get these the xreal air 2 Or the rayneo air 2

What’s the video quality of the xreal air 2 pro compared to the meta quest 3? Thanks

Is there a big difference in image quality between xreal air and the 2 newer ones. Can you describe the differences. Does the newer ones have the mode where the screen stays in place without using the adapter? Thanks!!

Hey Chaps! The XREAL Air 2 & Air 2 Pro’s are here!

Dang, I just ordered the Viture glasses with neckband... Are these better?

Anyone know if I can have multiple "monitors" floating in these on a Windows computer? If so do I need the extra 'beam' device to make that happen? I'd relaly like to run 2 or 3 screens on my work laptop, while traveling. (like in a hotel)

I can watch spots while i work👌🏻

The logo in the top left against the sky was driving me crazy lol I thought I had a smudge on my phone that wouldn’t go away.

Can you use these if you need prescription glasses?

These sound cool, but I would prefer a VR (closed up) version. Is there anything like this where I could plug it into my phone, or my legion go or my pc? I assume not.

How can I plug in his in to my Xbox serious x if the cord doesn’t match the plug, and how to I plug it in to my iPhone 10xr IF it doesn’t have the same plug, idk what type of plug it is, I don’t have it yet

I've got a pair of the Air 1's, for travel think they are great, i haven't had them long enough to want the upgrade just yet. wondering if the virtual screen on the new set are the same scale when you're using them?. The Sony screens are smaller, hoping what you see isn't 10% smaller.

Do you have a recommendation on ar glasses for gaming?

If all the connections its included in the box i would buy them? Thought out the research projector with the same price come with the ready go connection.

can I plug those on a windows PC or like any hdmi source?

Curious can I make a split screen set up within them for laptoo

That's an appealing device, thanks for the review. I tried a similar device a while ago and, unfortunately, it was not a comfortable experience because I'm prone to motion sickness.

Hi Tech Chap, Can you answer a few questions that may switch me to the xreal glass. (Curently using bose frame tenor) Does it support Bluetooth hands free incoming and outgoing phone calls? Can you use it as everyday wear prescription glass? With the prescription lens inserted, does the projection screen interfere with looking to the outside world. I know xreal is not intended for everyday wear but if it comes close, will definitely buy it. Thanks

Can you keep the xbeam charged while in use so the battery won’t drain?

So the xreal were the only AR glasses I didn't think looked goofy. The only issue I had was I wanted them to be 120h. So I guess I don't have an excuse now.

1440p resolution and I’m sold.

What an articulate and down to earth CEO. Great product and great review!

Dang!!!! I just got mine like 5 days ago from Amazon of course. Would you suggest that I should send it back and order the Xrea2pro? Need your advise

I heard mixed reviews about the sound but cant i just use bluetooth for the sound?

does it have room tracking like quest 3 have? I see how content is just fixed to the lens, am i missing something?

Amazing 😍

hello tech chap, I am curious about the use of this glasses with drone, I am assuming that it is a dji drone ? which model and controller ? would it function with controller with no integrated screen ? thank you

I have TCL Nxtwear S. How is the comparison?

Have you tried this out with the new OnePlus Open? I know Pixels obviously don't work and Samsung has a full Dex experience. Just wondering jow it works on the newest phone from OnePlus

One thing that was briefly mentioned, but not really explained at length is the prescription glasses attachment for the Air 2s. I wear glasses, so I'm interested in how that would work. Bear with me a second here. I know it may seem obvious, but to be more specific, if I wear glasses normally do I have to have the prescription lenses just to use the Air 2s for content, or are the lenses strictly for viewing the rest of the world normally through the Air 2s, not the content? Is there a focus function once you've got the Air 2s on, or is it just WYSIWYG? A little more information on this particular part would be most welcome. Enjoyed the video!
