The '''RayNeo Air 2''' is a consumer [[augmented reality]] [[smart glasses]] developed by [[RayNeo]] (a [[TCL]] brand), released in 2023. The glasses feature dual Sony Micro-OLED displays with 1080p resolution per eye, 120 Hz refresh rate, and up to 600 nits brightness—100 nits brighter than the [[Xreal Air 2]]. At 76 grams with a frameless design, the Air 2 provides a virtual 201-inch screen experience at an affordable $379 price point. The glasses were the best-selling AR glasses on Amazon during Prime Day 2024.
The '''RayNeo Air 2''' is an [[augmented reality]] display glasses device developed by [[RayNeo]] (a subsidiary of [[TCL Technology]]), released in late 2023 at $379. Building upon TCL's display expertise, the Air 2 features dual Sony Micro-OLED screens delivering 1920 × 1080 resolution per eye (Full HD) at an industry-leading 120Hz refresh rate with 600 nits brightness and 100,000:1 contrast ratio. The glasses provide a 46° field of view with 49 pixels per degree, simulating a 201-inch screen viewed from 6 meters away—making it ideal for portable entertainment and gaming. Weighing only 76 grams with a slim, fashionable design, the Air 2 represents one of the lightest display AR glasses on the market. Key features include electrochromic lenses that can darken on command for immersive viewing, directional speakers with minimal sound leakage, and plug-and-play USB-C DisplayPort connectivity for instant use with smartphones, tablets, laptops, and gaming consoles (Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, PS5). For devices without USB-C DP support, the optional RayNeo Pocket companion device adds standalone Android functionality with spatial computing features. The 2024 upgrade model, Air 2s, increases peak brightness to 5000 nits for superior outdoor visibility while maintaining the same core specifications.

The RayNeo Air 2 is an augmented reality display glasses device developed by RayNeo (a subsidiary of TCL Technology), released in late 2023 at $379. Building upon TCL's display expertise, the Air 2 features dual Sony Micro-OLED screens delivering 1920 × 1080 resolution per eye (Full HD) at an industry-leading 120Hz refresh rate with 600 nits brightness and 100,000:1 contrast ratio. The glasses provide a 46° field of view with 49 pixels per degree, simulating a 201-inch screen viewed from 6 meters away—making it ideal for portable entertainment and gaming. Weighing only 76 grams with a slim, fashionable design, the Air 2 represents one of the lightest display AR glasses on the market. Key features include electrochromic lenses that can darken on command for immersive viewing, directional speakers with minimal sound leakage, and plug-and-play USB-C DisplayPort connectivity for instant use with smartphones, tablets, laptops, and gaming consoles (Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, PS5). For devices without USB-C DP support, the optional RayNeo Pocket companion device adds standalone Android functionality with spatial computing features. The 2024 upgrade model, Air 2s, increases peak brightness to 5000 nits for superior outdoor visibility while maintaining the same core specifications.
