The Xreal One Pro are the company’s best AR glasses, touting thin optics that keep out reflections so you can enjoy a crisp, contrast‑rich image of whatever content you’re watching. Xreal has permanently cut their price from $649 to $599, making them only $150 more than its entry‑level (but still good) 1S glasses that debuted shortly after CES 2026. You can find the One Pro in stock at Amazon, Best Buy, and from Xreal itself.
Specs
- Display: Micro‑OLED panels projecting a virtual screen that feels like a 171‑inch display
- Field of view: 57 °
- Refresh rate: 120 Hz
- Processor: Xreal X1 chip, providing low‑latency tracking with optional 6DoF spatial anchoring
- Tracking: 3DoF (three degrees of freedom) for anchoring content in virtual space; supports Real 3D for a surprisingly good 3D effect on 2D content
- Audio: Built‑in speakers
- Connectivity: Works with a wide range of USB‑C devices
Both the 1S and One Pro share a well‑built design and the X1 chip, but the One Pro adds the larger virtual display, higher refresh rate, and optional 6DoF tracking.
Where to Buy
Comparison
If you’re tempted by the idea of a big, private screen for movies, TV shows, or video games, I recently published a piece that compares the One Pro to Xreal’s cheaper 1S and to Viture’s similarly‑priced Beast glasses. The One Pro is most similar to the Beast glasses in terms of visual fidelity, but for a multitude of reasons there’s still no perfect pair of AR glasses on the market. Nonetheless, it’s nice that Xreal’s best AR glasses just got a little cheaper.
