Xreal unveiled the One Series in December 2024, positioning it as the biggest leap forward for the consumer AR industry. The X1 chip represents over three years of in-house research and development, becoming the first customized silicon designed specifically for optical see-through (OST) AR glasses. The Xreal One launched alongside the higher-end [[Xreal One Pro]] with wider FOV.<ref name="prnewswire">{{cite web |url=https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/introducing-xreal-one-series-worlds-first-cinematic-ar-glasses-with-x1-independent-spatial-computing-chip-for-complete-spatial-screen-control-302322181.html |title=Introducing XREAL One Series: World's First Cinematic AR Glasses with X1 Independent Spatial Computing Chip |publisher=PR Newswire |access-date=2025-01-07}}</ref>
