Apple Vision Pro's biggest problem: XREAL Air Pro 2 + XREAL Beam Pro (sponsored)

[@RatchetLive]

Unfortunately, there is very little information in this video... No prices, no performance comparison, no specifications (functions, controller and resolution, especially field of view) or positioning, e.g. in relation to the Quest 3. If you compare a cheap and an expensive device, it should be comprehensive and not simply: "I like one more than the other"... This doesn't help most people much...

[@StuartGelin]

I have to agree. I've been really interested in something like this. I'm not interested in spending the money on a vision pro, but I'm also looking for something a lot more compact and that feels like regular glasses so the meta quest doesn't really work for me either. This and the viture have been interesting but I want to know details and this video felt a bit out of character for Luke in how little detail there was. I'm guessing xreal didn't let him get into the details and tbh that makes me trust them less.

[@Tech_NO_Tech]

I also agree with your comment. This review or this presentation of the competition needs more meat on the bone to be honest.

[@wandby7090]

gotta disagree with this on this one. i'm just so tired of all those benchmarks in every tech video so a more simpler approach to just a "real life usage" feels fresh. i can just go and google all the needed benchmarks in a second or check any other popular KZbinr, i bet there gonna be a ton of videos with the same info about its capabilities.

[@blackandcold]

Because it is an advertisement and you can see everything is choppy, also the streaming. Therefore the selling point is it costs 500€ (1/6 of 3500?) and supports all Android apps out of the box.

[@bobweiram6321]

Agreed. It's a terrible review and disingenuous to compare it with AVP or even the Meta Quest with a lousy 1080p resolution. It's just marginally better than those pathetic $20 smartphone VR goggle adapters. Moreover, at 1/6 the price of the AVP, it's an even worse value than the Meta Quest.

[@JuanFmTech]

Sponsored video with clickbait title and weirdly positive opinions and conclusions, coincidence? I THINK NOT!

[@Spicysauced]

You know in Germany we have a law that says you have to visibly mark something as advertisement when it is one, for example by putting an "ADVERTISEMENT" in one corner of the video. This video makes me wish that Americans had the same kind of law. Just saying.

It's $648.00 if anyones wondering? Meta Quest 3 is still at $500

[@ElementalITcc]

but, you get 2 separate devices. I use my xreal glasses with 5 or 6 different devices. it is a portable monitor that stays in my bag at all times.

Why s so many take reviews, I have the 1:33 air pro 2 and the beam pro and it terrible, blurry images , poorly designed glasses that make it impossible to see whatever's in your lenses, the photos app crashes in nebula, so there's no way to see your situation images. icons shift even when you anchor, please stop these fake reviews!!!!

[@honestmstk9790]

Hope they're paying you well

[@jesda7197]

Nice. Question….why would you not state the price and where we can go to buy????

[@RoiDeCoeurs]

it's 650 dollars for the phone + glasses combo, it literally took me 15 seconds to figure what was the price by clicking the link in the description

[@TheCentristChad]

Ad videos always do that so you click on the link. Probably for website tracking and increase sales? Very annoying

[@ElementalITcc]

youtubers do that because in 6 months or a year the price will be different. why bake in the price to the video forever when the link can be dynamic. What if someone wants information on this device in 2027? the launch price is irrelevant, but the content is still useful.

[@RatchetLive]

@@ElementalITccbut in like 5 years the link in the description could be useless so you’ll get no information at all without googling it …

[@michaelschafferAT]

I wish you had shown more with Mac. I would be very interested in using it as a display replacement.

[@carlosr1176]

These look great. Apples problem is that it is really bad at creating competing devices. iPads have been as fast as Mac’s and yet they don’t take advantage of that because the cheaper device might sell more than the expensive one. Vision Pro is what they want you to buy so if they make a cheaper set of glasses they will never be allowed to overshadow their pricier items. But if they started with the cheaper one they would not been able to keep 8k displays exclusivity to Apple, another trick they use to seem like the best.

[@8yvess]

Yeah avp kind of freaked me out, but Apple is always gets to the next big thing first (or they have for the past several years). The glasses design is less freaky, I heard that’s what they were going for next

[@undisturbed809]

Thanks for covering how to play PC GAMING with the Xreal Beam Pro

[@al8xandros]

We are talking about an HD device that has 55 degrees of fov in its Ultra version. Otherwise 49 on the Xreal Air & Air Pro if I’m not mistaken. So it is incomparable to the Vision Pro with its dual 4K displays and around 100 degrees of for which itself is not optimal but along the best fovs. Xreal’s concept of external computing device is interesting though. Apple having an external battery design, maybe it’s potentially to prepare us for embracing the same concept in the future for a thinner, more affordable Vision Air with external computing or iPhone-tethered🤔

[@DarrinSmiddy]

Awesome review of the XREAL Glasses & Beam. I am seriously thinking of buying both & connect it to the New M4 Pro Mac Mini as my Software Developer Setup. XREAL can do Virtual Triple Monitors.

[@TheGippy30]

Still around £850 in the uk, they should have included a SIM card and it would be an all round device

The Beam pro literally only just started shiping so of course now all your gonna get is sponsored videos. I assume over the next few weeks and months you'll get real consumer reviews. I already have the glasses and they are fantastic for consuming content to the point my tv rarely gets used. Getting the beam pro is a no brainer for me

[@ophast2128]

While you didn’t explicitly call this video a review, you compared the xreal against the vision pro many times in a sponsored video that amounts to a long form ad. I really don’t think this is a productive direction to be going in, see LTT’s drama surrounding this topic. It will become harder to trust your opinion in videos going forward

[@royshaft]

Meh ! Back to sleep , wake me up when they’re £250 ish , 4K , wireless , and don’t look like i’m “ special “ wearing them .

The Vision Pro has 3500 problems. 1/2 the price, ditch a little weight, it’ll be fine. It’s waiting for its iPhone 4 (2010), iPad 2 (2011) moment. Just hasn’t found it yet. What it is today, is a dev kit that’s available to customers.

This is still a relatively new tech, so it needs time to be mainstream. That said, the AVP is already DOA from the start.

[@MichaelMarquez-m3b]

Seems a lot better than wearing big clunky goggles.

[@JellyLancelot]

When it comes to displays, resolution is what matters far over 'physical' size (AR equivalent or not). And with the Xreal stuff, I've always found it fishy that trying to find its display resolution has always been difficult, even when it was first announced. Now I know why... as its only HD. 1080p really isn't worth it IMO, especially for the price. Might be good for something like a Steam Deck, for gaming (even then, 60hz...), but as a monitor replacement, absolutely no way. Absolute minimum for productivity now days is 1440p if not HiDPI, especially on macOS.

[@captain9678]

1080p on a 0.55 inch display is 4000 pixels per inch, Apple studio display is 218 pixels per inch

Avp was never the future. Simply to push the market that way. Apple hopes ppl will prefer their “vision“ of ar/vr experience.

Great product! but for lots of folk that isn't the case.
