The new XREAL 1S AR glasses are better and cheaper than the XREAL One
 

TL;DR

• XREAL has announced the XREAL 1S, a replacement for its XREAL One AR glasses.
• The 1S glasses come with higher-resolution displays, a wider field of view, and more improvements.
• XREAL also announced the XREAL Neo, a combination battery pack and video hub, to go with the XREAL 1S.

XREAL is a big player in the burgeoning AR glasses space, and today, ahead of CES, the company’s announcing a “mid-generation refresh” for its XREAL One glasses from late 2024. The new XREAL 1S glasses improve on the older pair in a lot of little ways, all while shaving a few bucks off the previous model’s price tag.

Like the XREAL One, the XREAL 1S glasses plug into anything with USB-C video output, showing that output on micro-OLED displays just behind the glasses’ lenses to create a sort of virtual display. Compared to the older model, the 1S comes with better resolution 1200p per eye (up from 1080p); a wider, 52-degree field of view; and brighter micro-OLED displays that are now 16:10 rather than 16:9.
