Any chance you have the xreal hub that splits power? I ask because I love Samsung Dex, and Xreal Beam. Currently the xreal beam burns more power than the xreal beam receives via charge. Could you test charging phone connected to beam pro? Curious to know if both devices can be charged to 100% while charging and using the device. I'd appreciate any info you provide. Great video and content

I was thinking of getting the Pro but when I decided to go for it my promo code had expired. In a way I don't want to have to carry a larger device just to use my Xreal glasses as my S22U already serves that purpose. I took out my Beam to use it some more and honestly it's a pretty decent device itself minus some missing features. It's only Netflix and Prime Video that are in 480p. Everything else is in sharp 1080p. If I get the Pro later on it's basically replacing my S22U and Beam. The thing is that my S22U has DeX mode which you can't do something similar on the Pro. I will wait for more reviews. I like that the Beam could be controlled without a display.

@KingKola_16 күн бұрын
@nonizime the glasses work like any other glasses, but the beam pro is like no other. It's what gives the glasses power. You can pretty much download any android applications to it and it will run. So yes you can download the applications for like Rayneo glasses, and it'll work, but the experience won't be any different than what you'd get with any other android phone that supports display port. But since this device was built by Xreal for their glasses, only xreal glasses will be able to use the nebula os operating system on the device. Nebula OS is what takes the ar experience to a whole new level.

Yeah I just found this out too. I'm glad that I didn't pre-order one now. $200 is cheap for a phone like device to do almost everything assuming you don't already have a device like what I have in my S22U. The fact that it doesn't have input is a deal breaker for me. I wanted an all-in-one device to replace both my S22U and my Beam. In a way I think the Beam is a better device even after all of its shortcomings. You could easily install apps on there now as long as you have a 3rd party store like Aptoide. To be fair tho when using the Beam to input gaming devices it does introduce more latency vs straight plugging it in. You can't do 120Hz while using the Beam too. I just hope Xreal will keep improving the Beam to provide new features. I'm not sure if it will ever get the Play Store now that the Pro is going to be out. They have to provide a reason for people to pay more I guess. Maybe they didn't do video input on purpose on the Pro so they people will still have a reason to buy the Beam as well.

I'd let other folks be the guinea pigs for this. The original beam seemed never have any support and was almost useless. Only way to make it interesting was to side-load it. It got hot as heck when using and the battery drained so fast, even with a power source. Don't be that early adopter and let someone else figure out if it actually is worth it and gets future support! The more I think about it, XReal should just create a proper PC/MAC app so we don't need this cell-phone sized thing. Well, at least they provided a trade-in I guess (checking if I bought thru Amazon).
