Pre-Order Rokid Max ($20 discount) : global.rokid.com/discount/MRTVROKID20 Did you ever think of getting yourself some video glasses for traveling or cloud gaming?
Appreciate your review, can you please share your thoughts if it's possible to use this glasses as a portable monitor by connecting it to your pc? Is it possible to read small text, and what will be the resolution of your desktop screen.
@@TheSegoBrief I own Nreal and I use them about 6hours a day I popped out the shades and I have a wireless trackball and Samsung dex. It’s now my preferred movie viewing and daily computer system.
How does it run with steam deck? i have the rokid air and it sucks. The edges are blurry and i keep wanting to adjust my view because i can't see the edges very well, it makes reading text difficult, especially with games.
I and my wife appreciated them very much during our flight to Greece two days ago. Now we are using them also in the Hotel room instead of the two "small" non-OLED/LCD TVs which are quite at the distance from the beds.
Gibt’s das Video auch auf Deutsch? Wie sieht es aus wenn man weitsichtig ist und eine Brille mit + Stärke trägt, kann man die Max über einen normalen Brille tragen? Is this video also available in German language? How about far-sighted people? Can you wear the Max under a normal glass?
I have the NReal Air with similar specs. Using these in my sofa It will fill up the whole wall that my 55 inch TV is on. I can visually fit 4 of the 55inch TVs in the persuade size of the AR screen. This is an optical illusion though. If i look at a wall closer to me or in front of my PC it will look smaller
@@dodger1x Yes, I know. if you hold a Nintendo switch in front of it it will look like the projected screen is 7" I've been trying to get MRTV to admit this. it's not magic, the screen size is fixed to taking up a certain amount of your FOV, but based on where your eyes are converging the size will seem to change. this is because the transparent screen causes you to want to focus on the nearest flat surface in front of you.
@@jemfalor Framepacked support is dependent on whether the firmware recognizes the signal and splits the image between the displays, not the refresh rate. Basically every TV nowadays is 120hz, but none of them are 3D anymore.
I love the small form factor of these compared to VR headsets, but think they need some better industrial designers as the style looks early 2000’s and I personally wouldn’t want to wear them. However, the shape and style of the light blocker looks more modern and is what the glasses should have been. Really odd choice they went with here and a missed opportunity in my opinion.
The problem with all glasses is that fashion changes and the glasses will look dated unless based on a very bland style. All these glasses sit higher on your face than normal glasses anyway, so they will look weird no matter what the shape. That is unitl these type things become more common, then maybe we will get used to it.
@@originaltrilogy1 Yes there are trends in design and fashion, but there are also styles that stand the test of time. Classic Wayfarers or Flat Tops for example always look good and aren't bland. Design is also a very deliberate choice, it's never unintentional. I'm simply saying for me the choices made here weren't the best.
As a gaming monitor they are ok if you are ok with a 2k resolution. Using my ASUS ROG Ally I have a lot of fun, even if the resolution is "only" 2k. For productivity I wouldn't recommend them.... the picture clarity at the edges is blurry (they still need to increase the horizontal FOV and the resolution a little bit for this usecase).
20° more FOV horizontally und 10° vertically and a resolution of 2.5k (instead of Full HD) and the Rokid glasses can be easily / comfortably used also for working. At the moment I'm just using them for movie watching which is already a great usecase, where only the Varjo Aero and Pimax Crystal can compete regarding the picture quality (Pico 3&4, Quest 2 & 3 and Bigscreen Beyond can't compete). Furthermore it's much more comfortable to watch movies with the Rokid Max compared to the very bulky Pimax Crystal (and also Varjo Aero).
I would like to know how is the input lag in this device. It seems like a very good option for gaming. I hope more companies start getting into this kind of products.
Are u going to put out a non sponsored review of the rokid max glasses ???? Wanted to know your opinion on the pros and cons and how they compare to other glasses in the market ??? Thanks
Mr. Sebastian: Your content always gets a like here. I watched the entire video. I know you adressed how to connect to the Switch. However, you should show it & play it with an actual Switch. Why? Because most of the videos for AR glasses typically skip the Switch for the impressions. I think that given the device has sold over 130 millions unit by now theres certainly a good chance that some viewers might be interested to hear a bit of how well or not it works.
Hello, there's a extra type C hub that you can buy, then you can pair Switch plus a power bank for extended time depends what device is plug in also determined the time being mobile and not tether to a wall wart.
I bought the Air version back in February, and you need a extra type c hub that Rokid offers. Its $40 and the Nintendo Switch lite wont work because there no hdmi out support. I believe every youtube reviewer got that type c hub included their review box an all others fork over extra $40.
I am thinking how good is this for AR.......it looks like it has some basic hand detection or something? What are the games like and what do they do? I'd be interested seeing what could be done wtih A.R and Unity or Aframe with these things.
Same as a few people here, I would like to know how well does it works with PC via the type c and HDMI. will text be readable? Are you able to turn off the phone/ device display when using it? 🤔
@@_bob_8170 hopefully they have developed the solution after a year. As I believe it can greatly improve the duration of the mobile devices while using the glasses. 🙏 I also would like to use it as a portable monitor, but I wonder if the resolution would be clear enough to use word document, video/pic editor on it. 🤔
I have the rokid air and the biggest disappointment was that it would not play amazon prime video. If possible can you check that? I am sure it was a licensing issue
Can you fix the image of the screen in front of you so it doesn't move along with your head? I find with the nreal air it is annoying when I look down say to the bottom corner of the 'screen' to see what is happening there, the whole screen moves with my head. I would like an option to have it like a real screen in front of you, where the screen stays stationary when I move my head. Not always, but especially with gaming.
I am curious. Can you tell me more about the station remote? Is it casting the app from your phone to the remote or does the remote contain the app? If so is it how one make the 3 monitor setup shown in the trailer? From what I understand when it comes to PC you can only use it as a extra monitor.
For productivity I wouldn't recommend them.... the picture clarity at the edges is blurry (they still need to increase the horizontal FOV and the resolution a little bit for this usecase), but for watching movies they are really great !
Hello my friend can you connect it to your pc and if you can can you buy a longer chord if you have movies download on you pc and can watch them comfortably in a recliner lol
If I remember right one reviewer said about rokid air that it was too bright even in the lowest setting, too eyestraining to watch in bed. Is it same with the Max version and ofcourse how does these compare to competitors specs, usability and pricewise? Availability in EU, any added tax and/or fees?
I have pre ordered mine, very curious about it. especially if I can set up and cast 3 monitors in it. And that is my question if you do a review, I would like to know if it is possible to mirror 3 PC screens. or if it is just 1 large screen if so is multiple excel files readable?
Im not sure what id like to see in a review but i know that id like this kind of thing to be able to do Bluetooth at some point for both audio and video connection wise but to still have the option to plug it in too
Hey Seb, your English is way better than my Deutsch, but the word is 'headquarters', not 'headquarter'. You keep flipping between the two and it triggers my pedantic arse! Other than that, good job as always 😜
That’s what I am also very interested! How can far-sighted people use these glasses? Which smart glasses can be used when wearing correction glasses with + diopter?
We can easily see what you are seeing in the glases at 8:39 For me to be honest its to expensive. For glases that just has a video output i would like pay around 200€. But over 400 is really to expensive…
@@mixedrealityTV the blue reflection is from the macbook yeah. But you can see them fighting in cobra kai. And in a train ride you normally dont have a open macnook infront of you. So can see it even better if someone sits infront of you.
Too expensive... 520€ with the wireless adapter for iPhone and they don't account for VAT or custom charges so you can easily add 150€ on top, pity as it's a cool product.
It's still 1080p lol. I was hoping for at least 2k res minimum. I've seen micro oled panels that are 8k. As the CPU/GPU is not on these glasses definitely not worth the money sorry. I can get micro 4k res overlay and power them with my laptop using rtx 3080 ti. Maybe wirelessly with WiFi6 for less than the Rokid Max glasses.
@@mixedrealityTV You can use micro oled overlay panels that you can build ar glasses yourself with open source much less than these. After all those glasses are just portable micro monitors with lenses as the powerhouse is coming from your phone or pc/laptop.
@@PinkGirl2242 Please share a link to affordable micro OLED panels, the only ones I can find in this form factor are basically the same as the ones used in these glasses, and the cost of two panels is bascially the same cost as these complete glasses.
why they are so expensive? made in China from Chinese companys!!! Glases are too expensive for 2 Displays, prisma and glasses frame. hard to see the whole display!
@@AdamBrackney it's not even close to Nreal Air until we see something like Nebula AR space app with 3DoF and 3D cinema/gaming on Rokid just like Nreal provides now.

Wow, this glasses look amazing! Can you make a video comparison between the Nreal Air and the Rokid Max, please? Thank you Sebastian.
Please! Compare the Rokid Max vs Nreal air-especially differences in screen size when screen casting. Thank you for the great content!
Will you consider testing it with Ginger XR on Windows 11 as a multi-monitor setup replacement? That would be my use case #1.
Appreciate your review, can you please share your thoughts if it's possible to use this glasses as a portable monitor by connecting it to your pc? Is it possible to read small text, and what will be the resolution of your desktop screen.
Can we get an Nreal vs Rokid comparison
This is the question most of us are here for. I hope he does some comparisons
Yes would be nice
Nreal are terrible , I hope these are better.
@@TheSegoBrief I own Nreal and I use them about 6hours a day I popped out the shades and I have a wireless trackball and Samsung dex. It’s now my preferred movie viewing and daily computer system.
@@Ghostviperz what do you mean by popping out the shades? What does that do for you?
These might be a good alternative to high end FPV racing drone goggles.
How does it run with steam deck? i have the rokid air and it sucks. The edges are blurry and i keep wanting to adjust my view because i can't see the edges very well, it makes reading text difficult, especially with games.
I WANT THEM - NOW 😅 I really like Rokid. Cool to see the successor.

In a full review, I'd like you to stand 10 feet from your real 65" tv and tell me how big the screen seems to be.
I have the NReal Air with similar specs.
Using these in my sofa It will fill up the whole wall that my 55 inch TV is on. I can visually fit 4 of the 55inch TVs in the persuade size of the AR screen.

@V86 how does the screen size look or change when appling the light cover?
I preordered these. Hopefully I get it before I leave for Portland in June.
The specs say it can do 3D. I'd appreciate your impression with that if possible. Thanks for a great video
Very curious if it's just SBS support or if it works with framepacked when connected to a 3D blu-ray player.
test it with reshade .. if you don't know what that means ask Paradise Decay.
if it supports 120hz, it should support framepacked. but who knows
@@jemfalor Framepacked support is dependent on whether the firmware recognizes the signal and splits the image between the displays, not the refresh rate.

@@pixxelpusher I dunno, wayfarers look so cheesy to me. But I agree that all of these glasses could use a better design team.
This is true. Because these glasses sit higher, they need to make it wider vertically. I think that is why nReal Wayfarer design looks more natural.
Please test it as a PC or gaming monitor.

For productivity I wouldn't recommend them.... the picture clarity at the edges is blurry (they still need to increase the horizontal FOV and the resolution a little bit for this usecase).
