The Xreal One Pro AR glasses have raised the stakes for those competing in the wearable augmented reality space, according to some CES 2025 attendees. The eyewear, which debuted at the show, updates the Xreal One, released in the U.S. last month. The Pro’s cinematic virtual display (of up to 447 inches) comes with 57-degree field of view, an improvement over the Xreal One’s 50-degree FOV. Xreal says the Pro model offers “professional-grade color accuracy.” An optional detachable 12MP camera, Xreal Eye, captures photos and video. The new model will sell for $500 starting in March.

Tom’s Guide reports the Real One Pro’s display tech is “gorgeous” and “unlike anything I’ve seen,” detailing a “Sony 0.55-inch Micro-OLED display, 171-inch virtual screen with 1080p resolution” and peak brightness of up to 700-nits. Tom’s adds that the “Xreal Eye Camera shows spatial promise.”

The company says that later this year, Xreal Eye will be updated to enable multimodal AI capabilities. Overall, Tom’s labels the Real One Pro “a true generational leap forward” in the field of augmented reality eyewear.

XR Today suggests “the star feature of the Pro model is its innovative flat-prism lens design, which delivers an industry-leading 57-degree view through an 11mm profile.”

The wide field of view means you can “see a whole screen in front of you without needing to turn your head too much,” notes Tom’s, adding “on top of that, any sign of fringing or edge blur is completely gone.”

The One Pro eyewear comes in two sizes, with adjustable eye spacing and software fine-tuning for a comfortable fit. The glasses feature “sound by Bose” that Xreal explains delivers “superior mid-to-high frequencies for a more natural and immersive sound experience.”

In a press release, Xreal says the Pro “has received multiple TÜV Rheinland certifications, including High Visibility, 5 Star Eye Comfort (the very first AR device to earn the honor), Low Blue-Light, and Flicker Free,” a testament to the model’s comfort and safety.

Mashable shows off the look and functionality of the One Pro in a video from CES, demonstrating how you can “anchor” the virtual screen on a wall or ceiling. That capability is courtesy of Xreal’s proprietary X1 chip, which enables three degrees-of-freedom (3DOF) spatial computing.

“It’s clear this is the display tech that we’ll all be using going forward, and Xreal is the first to not only jump on it, but make the most of it with X1 silicon,” Tom’s concludes.
