The XREAL One Pro is a premium pair of augmented reality (AR) smart glasses created by XREAL (formerly Nreal). Announced at a global press briefing on 4 December 2024 and showcased at CES 2025, the One Pro is the flagship of the company’s “XREAL One Series”. It features a custom flat-prism optical engine, the in-house X1 spatial computing chip, and the widest field of view (FoV) yet seen on an optical see-through consumer headset at its launch, at 57°. Customer shipments began in March 2025. The device was honored as a CES 2025 Innovation Awards Honoree. History Announcement XREAL unveiled the One Series (One and One Pro) on 4 December 2024, framing the glasses as “the world’s first cinematic AR display with an independent spatial-computing chip.” The Pro model drew attention for its 57-degree field of view, 120-Hz refresh rate, and electrochromic lens dimming. Hands-on demonstrations were provided at CES 2025 in Las Vegas, where analysts noted the shift from bird-bath lenses to a flat-prism design. Release Pre-orders opened worldwide on 4 December 2024, with XREAL confirming at CES that One Pro units would ship in March 2025. Design and Hardware Optics and Display Technology The XREAL One Pro utilizes a custom flat-prism waveguide, reducing enclosure volume by 40% compared to bird-bath optics and achieving a diagonal field of view of 57°, a significant improvement over the 50° on the standard XREAL One. A pair of 0.55-inch Sony Micro-OLED panels deliver 1920x1080 (1080p FHD) resolution per eye, with a perceived peak brightness of 700 nits and a 120 Hz refresh rate. Each unit is individually calibrated for color accuracy (ΔE <3). The lenses support three-level electrochromic dimming—Clear (0%), Shade (35%), and Theatre (100%)—controlled via an on-glass button to adjust ambient light. The virtual screen appears up to 171 inches at typical viewing distances, equivalent to 447 inches in specific scenarios.

X1 Spatial Computing Chip The X1 chip handles pose prediction, display stabilization, and low-latency distortion correction on-device, enabling native 3 Degrees of Freedom tracking with ~3 ms motion-to-photon latency at 120 Hz. It powers Anchor and Follow display modes and improved stabilization algorithms. Audio System Open-ear drivers in both temples, tuned under the “Sound by Bose” initiative, offer enhanced mid-to-high-frequency response compared to the XREAL Air 2 Pro. A quad-microphone beam-forming array supports voice chat and AI assistant capture. Ergonomics and Build Weighing 87 grams (without cable), the One Pro features a magnesium-alloy frame with nylon hinges and a front frame thickness of 11 mm. It is bus-powered via USB-C, eliminating the need for an internal battery. Two IPD sizes (M: 57-66mm, L: 66-75mm) and three-position temple angle adjustments ensure user comfort.

Prescription Lens Support XREAL partners with HONSVR for custom prescription lens inserts, designed specifically for the One Pro and not compatible with other XREAL models. Availability and Pricing

Pre-order Date: 4 December 2024 (Global), January 2025 (CES-related) Expected Shipping: March 2025 Price: US$599 / £549 / €649 at launch. Pre-order Bonus: A complimentary XREAL Hub adapter was offered for orders before March 14, 2025, in select regions.

Reception Early reviews praised the XREAL One Pro’s field of view, optical clarity, and X1 chip advancements.

Tom’s Guide called it “the widest, clearest consumer AR screen money can buy,” awarding it a “Best of CES 2025” spot for its flat-prism display, though noting the lack of a robust app ecosystem. VentureBeat described the X1 chip as “the biggest leap forward in consumer AR since tethered glasses became mainstream.” Engadget was “suitably impressed” with its solutions to common AR glasses issues. Some users on social platforms expressed excitement for the lightweight design but desired wireless connectivity, a feature absent due to the tethered design. Criticisms included the lack of a built-in battery, a deliberate choice to maintain low weight.
