Xreal, a leader in consumer augmented reality (AR) glasses, will start selling its Xreal One Pro, the company’s most advanced AR glasses yet, beginning July 1.
Xreal is finishing deliveries for its more than 10,000 pre-orders of Xreal One Pro and is offering special pre-order pricing through the end of June. I’ve tried it out and have had some novel experiences using it.
Built for power users, creators, and productivity seekers, Xreal One Pro features the industry’s largest field of view (FOV) in consumer AR at 57 degrees, ultra-thin lenses, and a re-engineered optical system that dramatically reduces overall size and ambient light interference.
Compared to Xreal One, the One Pro model delivers a brighter, sharper, and more immersive viewing experience, all while maintaining a sleeker form factor and the plug-and-play convenience that made the One Series a category standout. Xreal One Pro features new flat prism lenses that are 44% thinner than previous triangular birdbath lenses and produce a nearly 15% larger FOV.

“Xreal leads the market in XR display glasses, and the new One Pro takes everything the company has learned and puts a huge widescreen private display into a lightweight, highly portable package,” said Avi Greengart, president of research and advisory firm Techsponential, in a statement. “The custom X1 silicon allows the One Pro’s virtual display to stay anchored in space — or it can smoothly follow you — and the wider field of view means that you can see a full widescreen presentation without the extreme edges of the frame disappearing every time you move your head a bit. This is great for productivity, but for entertainment it’s magical — the technology disappears, and you are immersed in your favorite movie or TV.”
Xreal is delivering its final rounds of One Pro pre-orders to customers throughout June before beginning general availability sales starting on July 1. General availability pricing for One Pro is $649, €689 (euros), £579 GBP from Xreal.com, Amazon and BestBuy.com (with Amazon and BestBuy.com availability beginning later in July). Xreal is extending a limited time offer of pre-order pricing only from Xreal.com of $599 USD, €649 Euro, £549 GBP through the end of June.
To elevate the AR experience even further, Xreal has unveiled a new modular camera sensor called Xreal Eye, which brings native six degrees of freedom (6DoF) anchor capabilities to both the One and One Pro, along with taking first-person point-of-view photos and videos.
“With Xreal Eye, the One Series moves beyond head-tracked 3DoF to deliver a true-to-life 6DoF anchor experience,” said Ralph Jodice, general manager of North America at Xreal, in a statement. “You can now anchor a virtual screen anywhere in your environment and move around it just like a physical screen, walk past it, view it from behind, or get closer to expand the size. It’s not just immersive – it’s spatially real.”
With a simple USB-C connection, you can view videos and games in an HD, 1080p virtual screen available anytime you are.
