For the past several months, I have been wearing the Xreal One Pro on the airplane, in an automobile, on the couch, and in my home office for media, gaming, and work. Powered by Xreal's X1 spatial computing chip for augmented reality applications, it's safe to say that the Xreal glasses have spoiled me.

The Xreal One Pro delivers an impressive visual experience, thanks to its new flat prism optics.
