With no news at all about a possible release date except 'this fall' and absolutely no clue or detail on price, it was time to cancel after having my pre-order open since they launched it.

I think it's unacceptable for any company especially one as big as Xreal to not have any news after two months about a firm release date or price.

I'm sure many like myself only put in a pre-order gambling that the $1500 ceiling was just a rough number and that the actual glasses will be $1000-1200 max. Since one can just buy a VR headset for $1500 and a bloody good one at that.

Has anyone else done the same or thinking of cancelling?

Since updating my XREAL One glasses in my laptop, Nebula no longer loads or connects to my glasses using my BeamPro. I get the nebula boot screen hanging in both lens. Without nebula my glasses just became a super expensive mirror. I’ve restarted the device and reconnected without the Eye inserted. The MyGlasses doesn’t have an app in the App Store to update. I’m truly at a loss. It was working last night then boom, this morning, nothing. I need my fellow Redditors on this one…

I have a pair of XReal 1S and got an XReal Eye. I noticed that in the "Spatial Anchor" mode, which is supposedly 6dof anchoring, I cannot recenter my screen like I do in normal 3dof anchor mode. When long press the "X" button, the recentering sound will play, but most of the time it does absolutly nothing to the screen position. Sometimes it will randomly work, but that's rare occasion.

I could go into follow mode then back to anchor mode to adjust the screen position horizontally, but the screen's vertical position always defaults to center and I can't adjust it higher or lower.

Is this a firmware bug or is it just a complete overlook on the feature?? I can't be the only one being annoyed by this? I'm on the latest official firmware.

I own beam pro and one pro glasses.

Hand gesture is coming to one series.

I also preordered aura.

Aura has also handgedtures.

One series cant connect to sura puck but aura glasses can connect to my beam pro.

But aura offloads certain procesding powers to the puck so my question is this.

The aura glasses , does it have the hand gestures processed on the glasses allone so you can also use hand gestures when you connect aura to to beam pro (no puck)

Before the duscusdion starts , auro comes with puck and xr android why would you use it with beam pro.

Here is the explanation

I want aura +puck for android xr experience specificly for some vr apps.

But since fov is bigger then one pro.

One pro becomes redundant / obsolete.

Beam pro however has normal android and a touch screen.

For media consumption sometimes just casing your eyes below glasses and quickly use a touchscreen is more relaxed.

So id like for medua consumption or streaming to keep beam pro next to puck and choose wich o.s. I need for what occasion demands.

So the question is if i plug aura glasses into my beam pro even tough ill likely use touch screen on that setup. I do wonder if hand gestures would work un that setup too or does the glasses need puck for that .

Just curious

​Hey Everyone,

​Now that the beta NDA is lifting and Eye Gestures are rolling out, I wanted to put together a combined setup guide and honest review based on my time testing the firmware with the Xreal Eye addon.

​First off, huge credit to Xreal for releasing this software update completely free. If you already own the Xreal Eye hardware, you're essentially getting a whole new interaction system added to your setup without spending another dime.

​Quick Setup Guide & Requirements

​Before you get started, here are the essential setup steps and a few important heads-up items:

​Back up your data first: Updating to this beta firmware will wipe any photos or videos saved directly on your glasses.

​Update firmware: Reset your glasses and update via: [https://www.xreal.com/ota]

​Turn it on: On your glasses menu, go to Other → Laboratory → Gesture Interaction → ON.

​iOS Users (Mandatory Step): If you are on an iPhone or iPad, you have to turn on AssistiveTouch or the Air Cursor won't work. Go to Settings → Accessibility → Touch → AssistiveTouch → ON.

​Important Camera Rules:

​Hand placement: Your hands have to stay within the camera’s view, roughly between chest and chin level.

​Environment: You need decent room lighting. It won't track in pitch-black rooms.

​Mode limits: Gesture tracking automatically turns off if you switch into 3D SBS modes.

​How the Gestures Work & Real-World Experience

​Here is a breakdown of the main controls and how they actually felt in day-to-day use:

​1. Air Mouse (Full Cursor)

​How to use: Face your palm toward yourself and pinch your fingers to activate. Move your hand around to guide the cursor, pinch once to click, or pinch and hold to drag.

​My experience: The cursor tracking is actually very responsive and snappy. When it comes to scrolling through long pages on Android or Windows, I found that just clicking and dragging the screen was the most reliable method.

​2. Air Remote (Quick Menu)

​How to use: Hold the back of your hand toward yourself (like checking a wristwatch) to bring up the OSD menu. Move your hand over Play/Pause, Home, or Back, then release your hand to select it.

​My experience: This works really well for quick media controls when watching movies, saving you from reaching for physical buttons.

​3. Quick Actions & The "Fist Freeze"

​Recenter Display: Open your palm facing inward, then make a fist and hold it for a second to snap the screen back to your center field of view.

​Palm Flick Scroll: Supposed to let you flip your wrist forward to scroll through short videos like TikTok. Honestly, this barely worked for me—maybe once or twice out of dozens of attempts. I stuck with click-and-drag instead.

​The "Fist Freeze" (My Favorite Feature): If you hold a solid fist in front of the camera, it completely pauses all tracking actions. This is great because you can actually relax and watch a video without worrying about accidental hand movements triggering menus on screen.

​Pros and Cons

​The Pros:

​Completely free feature update on existing hardware.

​Very responsive cursor tracking when your hand is in view.

​The "fist freeze" feature makes watching movies hassle-free.

​The Cons:

​Arm fatigue: Having to hold your hand up in front of the camera (chest to chin height) gets tiring after a while. It's kind of the nature of the beast with camera-based tracking, but it's very noticeable during long sessions.

​Wrist scrolling needs work: The palm flick gesture didn't register consistently.

​Needs micro-gestures: Because holding your arm up is tiring, smaller finger-level movements would make a world of difference.

​Custom Gesture Wishlist

​On iOS, Xreal already lets you map custom actions to a "Thumbs Up" gesture under AssistiveTouch devices. Since they are taking feedback, here are 5 custom micro-gestures I'm hoping they add natively to save our arms:

​Index Finger "Air Tap": Pointing your index finger forward and tapping down like a physical mouse click instead of doing a full pinch.

​"Victory Voice" Dictation: Flashing a peace sign to automatically open speech-to-text whenever a keyboard box pops up.

​"Thumb Roller" Scroll: Sliding your thumb up and down the side of your index finger to scroll through pages without moving your wrist.

​Finger Snap Capture: A quick finger snap in front of the lens to take an instant screenshot.

​Anchor Lock: Crossing your index and middle fingers to quickly toggle between 0DOF (Smooth Follow) and 3DOF (Spatial Pin) modes.

​Final Verdict

​Overall, it's a solid, practical update. It has a few rough edges—like arm fatigue and unreliable wrist scrolling—but having full gesture control built right into the platform for free is awesome.

I just got a 1s recently and no matter the nose pads, arm adjustment, and ipd adjustment there seems to be quite a bit of blur/distortion. Idk if that's just normal or not. When looking at text I can see certain spot go from clear to blurry then to clear again. Anything outside the center and inner areas look distorted as well and the color kinda shifts too. My prescription inserts(-0.5) will arrive in a couple days so I'll still try those out. I do enjoy the glasses just those things threw me off a little. If that's just how they normally are well then so be it.

Hello there! I'm choosing between the VITURE Beast and XREAL One Pro/R1.

My first use case is a locked-down corporate laptop where I can't install any software or drivers. I basically need the glasses to work as an external virtual monitor with 3DoF/screen anchoring handled by the glasses or external hardware. Does One Pro or R1 work without any software?

The second is gaming on a desktop without an USB-C video output on the GPU. AFAIK, with Beast/One Pro I will need to buy a suitable DP->type c cable and some features will be unavailable. Does R1 dock solve this problem?

Which setup would you choose for this use case? And is it worth waiting for the XREAL Aura instead?

I’ve been testing the XREAL Hand Gestures beta on my XREAL One Pro with XREAL Eye, and after actually living with it for a while, I’ve found a use for it that goes well beyond just being a neat way to control the glasses.

I’m physically disabled, and there are days when sitting at my desktop computer isn’t practical for me. When that happens, I use my Legion Go with my One Pro so I can continue working from a reclined position.

That’s where XREAL's Hand Gestures via XREAL Eye has surprised me.

Being able to navigate and interact with my portable setup using my hands means I don’t have to constantly reach for the Legion Go or reposition myself just to perform basic computer interactions. The gestures make the whole setup feel much more natural and much more like a wearable workstation rather than simply a screen attached to my face.

I’ve been using it while developing my own software and CAD projects, sometimes for fairly long sessions, so this hasn’t just been a case of trying the gestures a few times to see whether they work. I’ve actually incorporated them into the way I use the computer.

The beta still has some rough edges, and I’ve reported the issues I’ve encountered, but when the tracking is working well the experience is pretty impressive. There’s something genuinely freeing about being able to sit or recline where my body is comfortable, put on the glasses, grab the Legion Go and control more of the experience directly with my hands and a little voice too.

For me, that’s the exciting part of Hand Gestures. It isn’t simply replacing a button or touchpad. It’s removing some of the physical interaction that can make computing difficult in the first place.

I think there’s a lot of potential here for portable computing in general, but especially for accessibility. I’m looking forward to seeing how much further XREAL can take it.

I’d be interested to hear how other testers have been using Gestures, especially if anyone else has found accessibility-related uses for them. ❤️

So I have a gaming rig I want to use xreal on but I dont have a USB C that handles video on the motherboard/gpu. Has anyone figured out a way around this?

I recently purchased a pair of XREAL 1S glasses, and kudos on the quality of this product.

However, I tested the “anchor” feature in a car, and unfortunately, when the car changes direction, the screen shifts. The 1S engine, which powers the anchor feature, doesn’t account for the car’s change in direction—it’s as if very slow rotations aren’t taken into account.

Do you think there might be a way to fix this?

Thank you.

Disclaimer: I only tried the very first Eye Gestures beta version a few months ago, so this is just an early impression (the feature has improved quite a lot since then).

What I liked most was simply being able to keep my phone in my pocket and still scroll through Reddit/TikTok, move the cursor, click, and use swipe gestures.

There was a bit of a learning curve at first. I had to figure out where to place my hand and which angle tracked best, but after around 15 minutes it started to feel much more natural. At least for the first beta version it needs some effort to learn and it had not enough tutorial in the glasses display itself. I was learning it by reading beta testing manual and trial and error.

A touchscreen is still faster and more precise, of course, but that also means taking your phone out every time, or keep holding and staring it passthrough the glasses. When I’m lying down or already focused on the glasses, I’d much rather just use my hand and keep the phone in my pocket.

For me, this also helps bridge the gap between XR glasses and VR a little more. One thing VR does really well is letting you interact inside the experience without constantly reaching for another device. Having gesture control on XR glasses gives me a bit of that same feeling. But I'm not dare to use hand gesture outdoor where many people walk around. It will be more indoors or on plane.

One thing I really like about Xreal (esp. One Pro) is that I bought it with an expectation of a simple external screen, with 3DoF and that's all. But they keep shipping more features like hand tracking and REAL3D I could not imagine of.

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone had any information about whether future glasses by Xreal (not previous models) will be compatible with the AURA puck.

I am really excited to play around and develop for android XR but the fact that they are still 1200p worries me as I would also want to use them all day when working. I don't want it so that in 2 months I will suffer from severe buyers regret.

The main reason I am worried is I have is that Viture has already said they aim to release a 1600p pair of glasses this year, which I would hope means that Xreal is not too far behind (Or Infront as they said they will be first to market with it?).

I and I believe many others are now in a odd position where they are hoping they will not be stuck having to choose between two devices:

• Aura with the amazing Android XR capabilities but only 1200p screens stretched to there limit over 70 degrees.
• New glasses with 1600p+ screens but no Android XR functionality.

For context I had the one pro and I loved it to bits but the only thing that bothered me was the resolution when programming at work, FOV never bothered me as it was bigger than my laptop screen anyway, but hey bigger is always better.

Also I know devices like the URXR One are going to be available, but passthrough for me is not an option unless it is completely imperceptible from reality. I know for a fact that I will not like them as I dislike passthrough in general when I have tried it. to me -> (personal opinion) It always makes the world around me look rubbish and just annoys me that I know It should look crisper and sharper as my eyesight is decent (Weird flex I know).

Any information people have would be great, and as always thank you to everyone in advance that chips in 😄.

I have an Xreal One Pro, and I enjoy 3DoF. But, in order to watch Netflix shows from my iPhone, I need to enable “Increase Brightness”, otherwise any dark scene is nearly completely black and unwatchable (e.g. try Heroes on Netflix, S01E04 at the 41:00 minute mark). But then I lose 3DoF and even lose Follow.

Does anyone know if there’s a workaround for this? I love how “Increase Brightness” solves black crush, even when I dial brightness down to level 2. (I think Increase Brightness lowers contrast, and there’s no independent contrast setting.) But I hate losing 3DoF.

Hello i Wonder why the beam pro is way cheaper in Aliexpress ? It's Fake or second hand ? Or no Google play version ?
