RayNeo X3 Pro is a pair of standalone augmented reality smart glasses developed by RayNeo, the AR glasses company incubated within TCL. Each lens carries a full-color MicroLED optical engine and a single-layer etched diffractive waveguide made by Applied Materials, giving a binocular see-through display with a 30 degree field of view and a peak brightness that RayNeo specifies at 6,000 nits. The glasses run an Android-based operating system on the Qualcomm Snapdragon AR1 Gen 1 platform, with 4 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage, and weigh 76 g.[1][4]

RayNeo previewed the X3 Pro at CES 2025 in January 2025, launched it in China on 27 May 2025 at 8,999 yuan, and released it internationally on 17 December 2025 at a United States list price of US$1,299.[5][6][2] The X3 Pro received a special mention in TIME's Best Inventions of 2025 list.[7]

Reviewers in late 2025 and 2026 praised the brightness and legibility of the binocular display and the low weight, and criticized the price, the conspicuous design and the 245 mAh battery, which in several tests lasted about an hour of active use.[3][8][9]

Announcement and release

CES 2025 preview

RayNeo announced the X3 Pro on 6 January 2025 as the headline product of its CES 2025 lineup, alongside the RayNeo Air 3 display glasses and the RayNeo V3 camera glasses. The announcement described binocular full-color micro-LED waveguide glasses weighing under 3 ounces, built on the Snapdragon AR1 Gen 1 platform, with waveguides from Applied Materials and a dual-camera system in which one camera handles photography and AI tasks while the other handles perception tasks such as SLAM and hand tracking. The brightness figure given at the time was 2,500 nits, and RayNeo said it planned a global launch in mid-2025 with pricing to follow.[5]

In a hands-on at the show, Engadget's Karissa Bell reported a field of view of 25 degrees, smaller than the AR glasses shown by Snap and Meta, but found the display readable under casino ballroom lighting. A RayNeo representative told her that battery life was around 30 minutes under heavy use at that stage, and that the company hoped to sell the glasses later in 2025 for around US$1,500.[10] The shipping product's specifications differ from those early figures: RayNeo's product page lists a 30 degree field of view and 6,000 nits peak brightness.[1]

China launch

RayNeo held its "See the Extraordinary" launch event in Shenzhen on 27 May 2025, where founder and CEO Howie Li introduced the X3 Pro together with the Air 3s series and the V3 Slim. The company positioned the X3 Pro as "Spatial Computing Glasses" and said it was among the first AR glasses to support visual Live AI, using a first-person multimodal model customized by Alibaba's Tongyi. The Chinese version runs RayNeoOS 2.0 with AI translation, spatial navigation, AI recording, call transcription and first-person photo and video capture, and RayNeo announced an AI Agent App Store for the platform.[11]

The Chinese list price was 8,999 yuan, or 7,649 yuan after the national consumer subsidy.[6] Pre-orders opened on JD.com and Tmall at the launch, with general sale on 15 June 2025. RayNeo said the glasses supported more than 30 mainstream Chinese apps at launch, including Douyin, Bilibili and Honor of Kings, through its Android application virtual machine.[12][6] RayNeo showed the glasses again at AWE 2025 in Long Beach on 10 to 12 June 2025, at the Qualcomm Technologies booth.[13]

International launch

On 28 October 2025 RayNeo announced that the X3 Pro would launch in the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Germany and other markets in December 2025, and that the international version would integrate Google's Gemini model.[14] The global launch took place on 17 December 2025. RayNeo's launch release lists a manufacturer's suggested retail price of US$1,299, an early-bird price of US$1,099 from 17 December to 5 January, and a limited US$999 early-bird offer that had been available from 17 November.[2] The company's US launch page also offered a trade-in credit of US$799, limited to 100 slots in the United States between 5 December 2025 and 5 January 2026.[15]

Region Price Basis
China CN¥8,999 (CN¥7,649 after subsidy) Launch price, May 2025[6]
United States US$1,299 (US$1,099 early bird) MSRP at global launch, December 2025[2]
United Kingdom £1,299 RayNeo UK store listing, September 2026[16]
European Union €1,399 RayNeo EU store listing, September 2026[17]
Japan ¥219,780 including tax Local distributor price reported by Gizmodo Japan, December 2025[18]

Prices have moved since launch. In its July 2026 review, TechRadar recorded US$1,169 and £1,169 on RayNeo's direct store and noted that the glasses were not sold on Amazon, unlike most other RayNeo products.[9] In September 2026 RayNeo's US store listed the X3 Pro at US$1,299 with a one-year limited warranty; the box contains the glasses, a charging cable, a spare nose pad, a cleaning cloth, a carry case, printed guides and a prescription lens sample.[1]

Project eSIM prototype

On 4 January 2026 RayNeo announced a funding round joined by the investment arms of China Mobile and China Unicom and previewed a prototype called RayNeo X3 Pro Project eSIM for CES 2026. The company described it as a consumer AR glasses concept with integrated eSIM and 4G connectivity, intended to work without a smartphone. It was presented as a prototype, with no release date or price.[19]

Design and hardware

The X3 Pro has a thick, squared, Wayfarer-style black frame. Two cameras sit in the bridge between the lenses, a recording indicator light is on the front, and housings near the temple hinges hold the MicroLED projectors. The temples are thicker than ordinary eyewear because they contain the speakers, electronics and battery; the USB-C port is at the tip of the right temple.[9][3] RayNeo describes the frame as an aerospace-grade magnesium alloy with a titanium alloy hinge,[11] and says structural optimization cut the weight by 36 percent compared with the previous generation.[15] TechRadar reports that RayNeo cites eleven structural changes for that reduction over the predecessor, which its review names as the X2 Pro; RayNeo's US trade-in program refers to the earlier model as the RayNeo X2.[9][15] The glasses are sold in a single black finish.[9] Tom's Hardware's reviewer nevertheless found the body "made almost entirely of plastic" and felt the materials did not match the price.[3] RayNeo specifies the weight as 76 g, plus or minus 1 g, and Notebookcheck lists the dimensions as 153.16 x 45.65 x 168.6 mm.[1][20]

Interchangeable nose pads are included and are the main fit adjustment; the temples do not have adjustable angles. Prescription lens inserts are sold separately through RayNeo's partner Lensology.[9][1]

Controls

Control is through touch panels on both temples, voice and a paired phone. On the right temple, swipes move through menus, a single tap confirms, a double tap goes back and a long press opens the control center. On the left temple, vertical swipes change volume, horizontal swipes skip tracks, a double tap plays or pauses and a long press calls the AI assistant. A power button is at the bottom of the right temple and a shortcut button at the top. The glasses have wear detection and power down when removed.[3] RayNeo also lists a phone air-mouse mode and Apple Watch gesture control; the launch page said the watch control would be enabled through a later over-the-air update.[1][15]

Cameras

The main camera uses a 12 MP Sony IMX681 sensor, the same sensor RayNeo used in its V3 camera glasses.[1][5] Photos are captured at up to 4K resolution. Tom's Guide listed video at 1440p at launch with 3K to follow in an over-the-air update, and RayNeo's product page lists video capture as "up to 4K / 3K", but RayNeo's own August 2026 camera article still gives 1440p as the maximum video resolution.[8][1][21] A second monochrome camera from OmniVision is used only for spatial positioning and tracking, not for photography, and a front LED lights solidly while taking a photo and blinks while recording video.[21] RayNeo calls the spatial system RayNeo Imaging Plus (Tom's Hardware renders it as Falcon Imaging Plus) and claims a positioning error within 5 per mille.[11][3]

Reviewers found the camera adequate in daylight and noisy indoors. Tom's Guide described shots as slightly warm but detailed, while Notebookcheck and TechRadar criticized low-light graininess and the lack of digital zoom.[8][20][9]

Audio, battery and connectivity

The glasses have open-ear speakers in the temples and a three-microphone beamforming array.[1] Tom's Hardware describes a four-speaker system and found it "surprisingly potent", with ample bass and low distortion at high volume.[3] Gizmodo and 9to5Toys also rated the audio better than expected.[22][23]

The battery capacity is 245 mAh, charged over USB-C with a full charge in 38 minutes according to RayNeo. The launch page quotes up to 5 hours of recording, 3 hours of music or 36 minutes of video on a charge.[1][15] Independent results were lower. Tom's Hardware never got more than an hour of general use, saw the charge fall from 50 percent to below 30 percent within ten minutes of navigation in Google Maps, and measured a 3 percentage point drop over about six and a half minutes of music playback.[3] Tom's Guide recorded a fall from 100 to 74 percent during a 15 minute walk with map directions.[8] Notebookcheck found roughly 30 minutes of continuous video recording.[20] Gizmodo reached 3.5 to 4 hours of light use.[22] RayNeo's launch release notes that the glasses can be used while charging.[2]

Connectivity is Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3 and USB 2.0 over the Type-C port. Sensors are an accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer, ambient light sensor and wear detection.[1] Away from Wi-Fi the glasses draw data from a phone hotspot, which Tom's Guide noted also drains the phone; Gizmodo reported that on iOS this means a hotspot rather than a Bluetooth network connection. Next Reality found that syncing recordings to an iPhone failed while it worked on Samsung phones.[22][8][24]

Display and optics

Each lens has its own full-color MicroLED light engine, which RayNeo calls the Firefly Optical Engine and specifies at 0.36 cc, feeding a diffractive waveguide embedded in the lens. RayNeo's specifications are 640 x 480 pixels per eye, 16.77 million colors, an average brightness of 3,500 nits and a peak of 6,000 nits, and a 30 degree field of view that RayNeo equates to a 43 inch screen seen from 2 m.[1][15] Reviews put the refresh rate at 60 Hz.[3][8]

The MicroLED microdisplays come from JBD, and the waveguides from Applied Materials. In a September 2025 release, JBD said the X3 Pro was the first product to commercialize their joint work: a single-layer etched diffractive waveguide in place of multilayer nanoimprinted designs, a high-brightness MicroLED engine, and system-level image correction (JBD's ARTCs engine). The companies claimed a 25 percent improvement in optical efficiency, 95 percent suppression of rainbow artifacts, global luminance uniformity above 80 percent and a color difference as low as 0.02.[4] These are manufacturer figures.

Reviewers consistently rated the display as the strongest part of the product. Tom's Hardware found the waveguide images "surprisingly bright and sharp with good color" and usable outdoors.[3] Gizmodo judged it sharper and more vivid than the 5,000 nit display of the Meta Ray-Ban Display.[22] TechRadar warned that, because the temples are not adjustable, the display can be "dramatically offset from the ideal line of sight" depending on the wearer's face shape; its reviewer had this problem and found it made the glasses very difficult to use.[9] The Ghost Howls observed a grainy speckle pattern on white areas, judged the 640 x 480 resolution low for 2025, and noted that the display light is visible from the outside in the dark.[25]

Software and features

Internationally the glasses run RayNeo AIOS, an Android-based system organized around a home screen, a quick-actions panel, an app launcher and a notifications screen. The assistant is Google Gemini, which RayNeo's launch page identifies as Gemini 2.5; it is invoked with "Hey RayNeo" or a long press on the left temple and can use the camera for visual questions.[9][15][8] In China the assistant uses Alibaba's Tongyi model.[11] RayNeo's Chinese and global launch releases both call the software RayNeoOS 2.0, while the product page calls it RayNeo AIOS.[11][2][1] Tom's Guide's reviewer used Gemini Live with the camera to plan a meal from the contents of his refrigerator, but found that the assistant did not yet talk to other apps: asked for directions, it answered "I can't do that" even though the Maps app on the glasses could navigate.[8]

Built-in functions include real-time translation across 14 languages (Chinese, English, Cantonese, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian and Malay), shown as on-screen text or synchronized audio with a claimed 2.1 second response; heads-up turn-by-turn navigation; AI recording with transcription and summaries; a teleprompter; a to-do list; music and phone-call handling; and mirrored phone notifications.[15][1][3] Tom's Hardware's December 2025 unit used a Google Maps app on the glasses and Google Translate for translation; TechRadar's July 2026 review states that navigation is powered by HERE WeGo maps, although the app failed to install on its reviewer's unit.[3][9] Translation in tests waited for the speaker to finish before rendering, which reviewers found stilted.[22][9]

RayNeo's AR Application Virtual Machine lets the glasses run standard Android apps, and RayNeo names WhatsApp, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube as examples.[2] In practice, reviewers found the native app store small and had to sideload apps through Android Debug Bridge, which Gizmodo called a "nightmare" for non-technical users; The Ghost Howls reported that SideQuest also works for sideloading.[22][23][25] Setup and companion features use the RayNeo AR phone app for Android and iOS.[3]

For developers, RayNeo offers a Unity ARDK and an Android ARDK, and its product page states that the X3 Pro supports six degrees of freedom tracking with SLAM for spatial applications.[1] The Ghost Howls found that the consumer interface itself tracks only head rotation (3DoF) and that the glasses offer no hand or eye tracking to the user.[25] TechRadar reported that AR overlay alignment was accurate and stable in its tests.[9] TechRadar also noted that firmware updates delivered through the phone app substantially expanded the feature set between the reviewer's first use in 2025 and the review's completion in July 2026.[9]

Reception

Publication Reviewer Date Summary
Tom's Guide Jason England 14 December 2025 Praised the dual displays, the operating system and Gemini; criticized battery life and the conspicuous looks.[8]
Gizmodo James Pero 17 December 2025 Scored 2.5/5. Impressed by the display and audio; found the app ecosystem almost empty and sideloading unreasonable.[22]
The Ghost Howls Skarredghost 17 December 2025 "Probably the best smartglasses I've tried until now", but for early adopters and prosumers rather than daily street wear.[25]
Tom's Hardware Brandon Hill 21 December 2025 "An impressive piece of hardware" that is "not quite ready for prime time"; battery life and price the main objections.[3]
Notebookcheck Abid Ahsan Shanto 23 December 2025 Bright dual displays and a comfortable fit; battery endurance during video recording the "one big limitation".[20]
9to5Toys Karthik Iyer 27 January 2026 Solid hardware, underdeveloped software; a "work in progress" for early adopters.[23]
TechRadar Mark Pickavance 14 July 2026 Scored 3/5. "Technically, the most impressive pair of smart glasses currently available", held back by battery, price and fit.[9]

The reviews agree on the pattern: strong display hardware, low weight, and useful translation and navigation, set against short battery life, a high price and appearance. Jason England of Tom's Guide wrote that TCL had made "one fatal error: not making them look good on your face", and recounted a friend calling him a "glasshole".[8] Brandon Hill of Tom's Hardware called the touch controls cumbersome and battery life "the real nail in the coffin".[3] James Pero of Gizmodo advised most buyers to keep their money.[22] Mark Pickavance of TechRadar, who waited more than six months after receiving the glasses before publishing, credited firmware updates with transforming the functionality but still called it "a first-generation product" and questioned whether the future of AR glasses was worth more than a thousand pounds today.[9]

TIME included the X3 Pro among the special mentions in its Best Inventions of 2025 list, published on 9 October 2025, describing "cool, lightweight AR glasses" with AI translation, navigation, recording and call transcription and support for Android apps.[7] RayNeo's later marketing describes the product as "selected as TIME Best Invention of 2025".[2]
