The device features Sony Micro-OLED displays with a 70-degree field of view, 120Hz refresh rate, and integrated Gemini AI. It supports over 150 XR-specific applications from the Google Play Store. Pricing starts at $1,099 for the 12GB/256GB model, with initial availability in the US, Canada, Japan, and South Korea.

The XREAL 1 Pro+ is a flagship AR glass model designed for high brightness and smooth 2D to 3D video conversion. It features a peak brightness of 1,200 cd/m2, AI HDR technology, and Sony 0.55-inch Micro-OLED displays. The device includes improved ergonomics with a new nose pad design and three-level adjustable transparency lenses. It is scheduled for release on November 10 in Japan, priced at 84,980 yen.
