Augmented reality device maker Xreal Inc.<\/a> released the\u00a0Xreal 1S<\/a> today, a new premium pair of 3D spatial display glasses, and a compact power hub that combines a battery and video passthrough.<\/p>\n

The 1S joins the Xreal One Series, including the One and One Pro, providing a powerful foundation for wearable AR displays. The company said the 1S represents a new standard for AR displays and is a market replacement for the initial Xreal One, released in December 2024.<\/p>\n

1S provides an immersive, cinema-grade experience with the ability to project a 171-inch spatial screen while building on core aspects of the One. It increases resolution from 1080p to 1200p FullHD, delivers brightness of 700 nits, and offers a larger field of view at 52 degrees.<\/p>\n

When moving between outdoors and indoors, the glasses can change their display settings using electrochromic dimming to adapt to lighting conditions. The glasses also feature Sound by Bose technology, eliminating the need for earbuds or headphones, and are capable of delivering high-fidelity audio directly near the ears.<\/p>\n

All of this is built into a lightweight 82-gram frame. Although this is heavier than the Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses<\/a>, which weigh 49-51 grams, the S1 packs in numerous productivity and entertainment features. The Ray-Ban smart glasses also only project onto one lens, so they do not provide a 3D augmented reality display like the S1. For comparison, some regular sunglasses weigh about 45 grams, making these glasses feel heavier on the face.<\/p>\n

Users can place floating screens in their vision that \u201canchor in place\u201d and do not move when they move their head, or they can generate an ultra-large cinema screen that will stay in front of their vision at all times. For productivity, \u201cside view\u201d allows pinning a smaller screen to a corner of vision, such as the top-right or bottom-right, allowing users to multitask by watching content while seeing the real-world surroundings clearly.<\/p>\n

Available today, the Xreal 1S lowers the price from its predecessor, the Xreal One, from $499 to $449. That makes it more affordable for entry-level consumers.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery Xreal One Series product has raised the bar for what wearable displays can achieve,\u201d said co-founder and Chief Executive Chi Xu. \u201cWith Xreal 1S, we\u2019re not only lowering the cost of entry, we\u2019re doing so while boosting specs and performance, and improving optics.\u201d<\/p>\n

New power hub accessory<\/h3>\n

In addition to the 1S, Xreal launched a power accessory called Neo, providing extended battery life for longer sessions.<\/p>\n

The Neo serves as a DisplayPort video hub with a 10,000 mAh power bank, eliminating the need for additional adapters or chargers. It supports 30-watt input and 20-watt output on battery and up to 45-watt output when connected to a wall charger.<\/p>\n

Beyond battery life, the Neo permits higher video performance gains when streaming from other devices. It also unlocks the ability to connect to the Nintendo Switch handheld, without the need for the previously required dock. Xreal 1S users can experience the Nintendo Inc. Switch\u2019s onboard screen at 1080p resolutions. Valve Corp. SteamDeck owners can receive up to 1200p resolution.<\/p>\n

\u201cXreal 1S brings true cinema-quality spatial displays to more people than ever before, while Xreal Neo redefines what\u2019s possible in portable AR by solving one of the industry\u2019s biggest limitations \u2013 power and performance on the go,\u201d said Xu.<\/p>\n
