I totally want these but we should stop parroting the marketing; they're just Head-Mounted Displays (HMDs), not Augmented Reality (AR). There's no camera interpreting the world in front of you and "augmenting" it with digital modifications. It's just a reflected "floating" monitor. And that's still great for all the reasons covered here. Also the "330 inches" claim is kind of ridiculous because that's as if you were 6 meters (~18 feet!) away. From what I've heard it's more like a 24" monitor from 2 feet away. It's just basic angle math but of course the marketing tries to impress with big numbers.

Things to know before buying. 1/ The arms are adjustable, with a little tweaking you will get a good view. 2/ They are NOT a PC or a VR headset. 3/ They are NOT Augmented. 4/ The beam can store files but the screen is fixed as a medium monitor in front of you, not resizable. 5/ Not all phones play nice with the Xreal Air 2. 6/ Xreal community are helpful. 7/ You can play console games (PS 4/5, Xbox etc etc) but you will need a good HDMI to USB C cable. 8/ There is no number 8. 9/ If you do not want to use your prescription glasses and buy the reglazed inserts supplied, shop around. It is a premium product that attracts premium accessory prices. 10/ Have a wonderful holiday season wherever you are.

You forgot the BEST reason to get one if you like drones, if you’re a videographer or a travel vlogger etc or just a hobbyist. You can get a first person view and a VR type experience BUT still legally fly by yourself since you can make it semi transparent. With a VR headset for fpv drones or fpv experiences you need someone else watching your drone bc legally you need someone physically watching it the entire time.

I think these would work best with the Lenovo since the second usb4 port means you can charge the device and use the glasses at the same time

Thanks for the informative review! I was wondering what game you were playing at 3:30. Looks like something I'd like to add to my library 😂

Ohhhh! So glad you made a video about these!!!

thanks for the video..... what is with the ipd (exe-distance)? Some people have an eye-distance os 64mm, other of 71mm?

Excellent review👍 Might I ask what the digital screen with the changing animations is behind you? Thanks.

Solid video Nerdy might get these , I wonder if your lying down is the correct angle displayed basically meaning the screen is towards celing.

I just bought mine. Can't wait to get them.

These are awesome, first and foremost. They are a huge step in a direction I think we all want to see. We all want smaller, more portable display screens on the move. The portability and not looking like you have a daft punk helmet on your head in public is awesome and much more attractive for entry level users. With that said... Besides the size, why would we even consider this if you can get the Quest 3 for slightly more? I think its a legitimate question to ask yourself if you are not a "early adopter" . You can do everything this can (with the beam as well) and play games, spatial computing, full vr, etc.. Again, I think its a great product, but if they can bring the price down to 249.99, I think they would have a real hit of a product on their hands. Great review Nerd Nest!

Could we get some input on how well these would work with a windows laptop/desktop? I'm using windows 11 on my devices and I see that I have thunderbolt ports that would work all the same even without the beam device. Thank you!

Hopefully that soft to the touch material isn't the same material that years down the road turns to a sticky mess. Feels great in the beginning and then you put it away for a while and pull it out and its so tacky its no longer usable. Like someone put rubber cement on it.

I have a pair of the Viture XR glasses, and I agree. They are a game changer. I only play my Switch with them. Not sure if I'll use them 100% of the time with the OLED, but they definitely have a use case. I love being able to lay on the couch or in bed with them. My wife can't hear the audio at all when I have the volume on the lowest or second to lowest setting, while it is perfectly audible for me. I wouldn't necessarily take them out in public outside of an airport or train, but they're absolutely a premium, amazing piece of tech. Very excited to see this technology evolve over the next few years.

Do you know what the power draw is on the xreal glasses? I'm wondering what kind of capacity and wattage power bank you'd need to use these on the go with the Steam Deck; and how much usage time that sort of setup may go to. Thanks for posting the video!

Love that you’re playing TF

Will headphones still work plugged into my Legion Go? The Go will recognise that the screen isnt on so surely it wont have no sound?

Thanks for the review! Regarding the beam, is it a must have when using the glasses on trains or car ride with the smooth head follow or would I be fine using the glasses only?

Side view seems like it would be great for walking directions around a city when connected to your phone!

Hey Bill, can you do 40fps/120hz with these glasses on the Steam Deck? Kinda like how you can do 30fps/90hz on the OLED with frame-tripling.

I bought a pair of similar glasses and I'm shocked at how good they work. I showed my father and he was unimpressed though and I couldn't figure out why until I realized his IPD is relatively narrow so he probably can't even see the screens properly. These things need IPD adjustment, or at least availability of different IPD range models. And they should all have built-in myopia correction like Rokid Air offers.

These are on my must have list, just waiting for the work bonus fairy to give me the nod to get these. I know all these reviews are going to struggle massivley to get across how good the experience actually is. Really interested in the productivity element I could always do with more screens.

Great review! When wanting to stay attatched to my rog ally wall charger and wantibg to use the glasses for gaming, how do i go ahout that part?

Thank you for a good review! I may have missed it but could you tell us how long the bartery time for the glasses is? Also, being a movie collector, wondering how they work if I connect them to a home theatre system through a Atmos receiver via HDMI? Replacing a tv or projector. 😎 Cheers!

Thank you very much, I would like to order for my Steam Deck Oled😉✊

Without the dimming feature, is the screen is still very visible in a well lit room? Not sure on spending the extra 50 for that

Could you say somthing about door-effect ? Were you able to see the pixels ?

Do the blurry edges not bother you?

Looks awesome but price is a bit steep for me.

would the mode where you can put the screen in the bottom corner be good for driving or walking with a map on the screen?

Just to be clear: when I use the Xreal Air2 as a display, the screen of the Steam Deck is turned off automatically? Thanks for this awesome video btw.

I wish I purchased the Air 2 instead of the Air 2 pro. On a sunny day outside it doesn't block enough light. I find myself always using the black out cover anyway.

did it gave you motion sickness at any point of using them?

how to connect it to iphone 14 pro? how to play 3d sbs movies on it ? do we get dizzy after using them? how to connect to windows pc ? (which cable support it) which devices are compatible with xreal ar ?

Hey, great review man! What is the name of that flying game you were playing?

Do this model or other models feature any type of prescription lens swap? Or setting to adjust to poor eyes? Thx

i own the older version of those glasses the "nReal Airs" which is v1.0. Before they renamed the business to xReal. I don't think my glasses has dimming, but the oled brightness has dimming. One problem i have with most AR headgear is that they aren't helpful to people who require glasses. Not everyone is going to fork over hundreds to get prescription lenses for every separate AR or VR headset.

Tell me, does it have PWM? I have very sensitive eyes and cannot use screens without ips

Loved this product. Just wished the micro oled screens are bigger so it can cover more angles!

Hi can you use these if you are visually impaired half blind

When they add gyros and the ability to have a vr style theatre room for watching movies, I'm all in. I really don't love the feeling of a fixed screen in vr. But I guess if that was possible oculus would already have made it.

The Body Anchor mode is much improved now. It is my preferred viewing option when anchored to a phone or gaming device.

Are the pixels noticeable. Is it easily seen the small space between pixels making a grid type view. ?? -Thanks

Thinking about getting the air2 ultra but it is not available in canada yet.. the problem is that i use iPhone and pretty much my ecosystem is apple.. but at $5000 cad the vision pro is put of reach for my finance. Even if apple decide to make a cheaper Vision i doubt its going to be cheap. Maybe $2499 usd. which is $3500 cad. still out of reach for my finance.. So xreal glasses is probably the best bet eventhough it is not a stand alone device like the meta quest 3.. but once plugged to your iphone it become almost like a stand alone.. now im still waiting for a better demo .. like how you use the xreal with the iphone.. how you control the menu, would it be possible to navigate through your iphone or ipad without even touching the screen. To type using some virtual keyboard. Also since you plug it to your phone , im guessing it’s going to drain your phone quickly.. because i spend many hours on the ipad. I hope the xreal will be 100% compatible with every ipad. Because i dont want to apple to make xreal user’s life difficult. What if apple decide to make it hard for xreal users to use their xreal glasses on apple devices so they can sell their Vision or Apple glasses.. like I said, apple vision is a much better option if you are on apple. Apple vision pro can pop a screen by just looking at any small handheld screen.. you dont even have to install any apps to mirror anything.. its pure magic. So i would like to see a video that show what you can do with the xreal connected to the iphone.. all the apps you can use with thr xreal .. basically all the stuff other than just playing games.. i don’t have a pc , steam deck or a switch (nintendo about to release a new nintendo soon 2024-25 anyway). I also would like to see how the xreal is when you are driving or walking and you receive a phone call or a sms. Since the glasses doesnt have built in battery.. is there a solution for not draining the phone battery

This is easily the best review I’ve seen for these. I’ve just ordered a pair and I can’t wait for them to arrive.

Would love to see someone show em with the glasses insert. Have yet to see a review for people with glasses.

I just bought a pair and I wonder how can you wash them? I am used to wash my shades every week in a thin lukewarm kitchen detergent. But I can not imagine how to keep these clean... Wiping cloth just wipes the dirt around...

shouldnt you be able to split the lens screens? like have one image displayed in the left lens and a different image in the right lens and bam stereoscopic 3d and 3ds emulation

How are these versus the Viture

Will they work with the ps vita? Ty

What game was that with the spaceship at 3:28

How’s it work for pc or can it?

Would buy them but as i cant use them with deck while charging it is simply a no go.

Good evening, can I watch 3D movies like in the cinema with the Xreal Air Pro 2???

"There's no reflections at all when you're looking through these glasses." That's not true. I often see reflection of my feet.

3 months later, are you still using it?

Is it possible to turn off the speakers and use bluetooth sound instead?

Can you get 40 hz on them ???

What happen if you move your head? The screen moves too or it keeps on the same place?

Can you pair two together to watch a movie with a Spouse or friend etc

I wear glasses how do I get round this.

Hello. Great test. What is the game you play on this video at 3 min 29 sec ? Thanks a lot

This must be this guys first newest iPhone purchase lol. He always mentioning his new iPhone n his vids lol

Problem is they cost as much as Meta Quest 3. So would you rather go VR or just 2D glasses…

Is the screen bigger with steam deck vs Xreal air 1?

Hello the community. Someone know what is the name of the game in this video at 3 min 29 sec ? Thanks a lot

The covers can work good for protecting the lenses so I wouldn’t discard them completely.

I love AR glasses but they if you ain't gonna use them all the time. A waste of cash. Lots sell them cos they're expensive and don't get used much. I'll be honest, I don't use mine all that much either. Sometimes in your head you're like omg I could use it on this and that. In reality it will stay in the box 90% time. £400 to me not expensive for a screen. Got a portable worth 3x that lol. 4k oled,hdr. Serous over kill lol. Does look really nice vs my normal portables.

Can anybody advise me whether the Viture are better than these air 2’s?

good review coconut 🥥

Would it work for a person wearing prescription glasses though?

Why not make it DOCkABLE with the switch. . .?!

Damn, we are Twins!

I've got some of them awsome they are to

Would this work worth the PS Portal out the box ? Anybody test this yet with it.

I wonder how bad the eye strain is with screens right in front of your eyeballs.

Would love to use it on my Steam Deck, but it doesn't seem they've provided a simple solution for devices with only one USB-C port where it would allow for charging while using the glasses

These glasses are cool but in reality these are not meant for long periods of play, you will get nauseous and dizzy.

Camera with zoom is missing

after new update it now hits 385" screen

3:10 lol

There is a pair of glasses that have the same shadey thing.

The beam imo is bullshit. That feature should be included by just using an app. Why is an external box necessary? Just have it pair with bluetooth to your iPhone and that should be enough using an app.

I have to wear prescription glasses and does it mean that I wear them under these or there are some options for me?

I really wanna like these, but there are soooo many mixed reviews.

You think this is cool, switch the glasses into SBS 3D mode and run a windows game on the ally with Reshade Superdepth 3d on.

Don’t agree, i have the Rokid and while they are great for watching movies and shows, i think gaming is still better on the device display, especially in the new Steam Deck Oled, cause the display virtual display of these glasses seems big, but you look at it from distance, while i like to play games pretty close to the display, also the virtual display follow your face when you move, another things i don’t like that much in games

The audio thing still sounds obnoxious. Whether I can understand what they're listening to is irrelevant, just being able to hear it at all is obnoxious. If you need to hear the outside world, please wear some earbuds with a transparency mode.

Any one try it to have 3 monitors displaying?

Quick question so if you I bad vision and wear glasses, this thing is not for me?

i think i'll continue to wait on some glasses and see where this tech really goes. i still think it's a bit too early to spend $200 on it.

AR is better than VR, there is no need to strap a device to your face 😂

3:00 "M rated game.... Pause.... Yeah like doom" Hahah sure, Doom. what is Doomguy doing in your special games hahaha

How does it work with VR games on your steamdeck?

Owned the Xreal airs & viture glass and there not 120" screen its more like 27" monitor screen about 1 feet away, Why don't they just tell the truth as there good enough at 27" only 1 feet away

At max volume cup both your hands over your ears....🤯

330" 🤯

Me watching this Knowing I'm too financially responsible to buy this

i want one.
