XREAL JUST DROPPED THE MIC AT CES 2026: THE FUTURE OF AR GLASSES IS HERE!

Xreal, the augmented reality brand that's been making waves in the smart glasses scene, just brought the heat to CES 2026. With a plethora of new competitors trying to steal the spotlight, Xreal decided to BRING. IT. ON.

I've tried on a whopping 12 different smart glasses since arriving in Las Vegas, and let me tell you, Xreal's new offerings are the REAL DEAL. Earlier, I was impressed by the TCL RayNeo Air 4 Pro, but Xreal's latest creations take the cake.

Introducing the Xreal 1S and ROG Xreal R1 AR Gaming Glasses

Xreal just debuted not one, but TWO new pairs of AR glasses: the Xreal 1S and the ROG Xreal R1 AR gaming glasses. The Xreal 1S offers some critical upgrades over its predecessor, including a price drop to $449. Meanwhile, the ROG Xreal R1 AR gaming glasses are the WORLD'S FIRST micro-LED smart glasses with a 240 Hz refresh rate – yes, you read that right, even the Apple Vision Pro can't touch that!

The Xreal 1S is available now, but the ROG Xreal R1 AR gaming glasses won't arrive until later this year, and let's be real, they'll probably come with a hefty price tag. But trust me, it'll be WORTH. IT.

Instant 3D Conversion: The Game-Changer We Never Knew We Needed

Xreal's also introducing a new innovation that's about to change the game: instant 3D conversion, dubbed "Real 3D." This feature is available now on both the 1S and existing Xreal One Pro glasses as a free over-the-air update. It instantly transforms your display, photos, videos, games, and entertainment content from 2D to 3D, and it's MIND-BLOWING.

I've always been skeptical of smart glasses, especially those with onboard cameras, but Xreal's spatial computing glasses have won me over. They project a huge screen into the environment around you, mirroring your smartphone, tablet, or laptop display. It's like having a PERSONAL CINEMA floating in front of you, complete with built-in Bose speakers for an immersive audio experience!

I Tried the ROG Xreal R1 AR Gaming Glasses at CES, and I’m Still Reeling

I got to try the unreleased R1 glasses during a demo at CES, tethered to the new ROG Xbox Ally X gaming handheld. Let me tell you, it was a HOLY SHIT moment. The R1 display is IMPRESSIVE, with a refresh rate that blows the competition out of the water. Even the $3,499 Apple Vision Pro maxes out at 120 Hz, but the R1 is on a whole different level.

The graphics were stunning, with strong color and clarity that compared to the nearby display. And the best part? They're not overly heavy on your face, making them perfect for extended gaming sessions.
