Xreal has made its latest AR glasses, the a01 Plus (also referred to as the A01 Plus), available in the United States for $299, according to multiple outlets. The new model is positioned as a more affordable version of Xreal’s higher-priced 1S glasses, with fewer features while keeping the core experience of delivering large private screens. The Verge and other coverage describe the glasses as lighter and more comfortable for longer use, targeting people who want a big display for gaming and movie watching. Engadget and Digital Trends report that the a01 Plus connects to compatible phones, laptops, and handheld gaming consoles to create a large screen in front of the user. Android Authority adds that Xreal upgrades the earlier a01 design with a detachable light shield, and that the updated product is now called the a01 Plus. Coverage across outlets emphasizes the lower price point and the travel-oriented use case, while noting that the $299 model is more stripped down than Xreal’s premium options.
