Today’s rapidly advancing technology, like VR glasses, is transforming how we consume media by offering deeply immersive experiences. Unlike the communal activity of watching TV with friends and family, VR glasses encourage individual use, which can lead to feelings of isolation. While these devices provide unique and exciting experiences, they also reduce face-to-face interactions, impacting our social skills and emotional well-being. Balancing the use of such technology with shared activities is crucial to maintaining our social connections.
Hi Karl, thank you for your review. It was fantastic to see you explore XREAL Beam Pro and to share your throughs about the device, alongside our XREAL Air 2 Pro AR glasses!
Hi, @XREAL_Global. I really enjoy my Air 2 Pro glasses and I think I would love them even more if I had my Beam Pro as well. Unfortunately I never received any shipping information for my order or a response from customer support so I’m considering canceling my order altogether. Maybe I’ll win Karl’s since he was able to get his 😢

@@XREAL_Globalthank you for the quick response. I thought it may have been a simple oversight on my part so I made sure to double check my spam folder before reaching out to customer support.

Why can't this be an app on your existing phone? I mean, better hardware, no additional device, use existing data plan, easier software support, etc. Just sell the app or have a cheap subscription model in app.
Completely agree with you but didn't like the subscription model idea, it can be an expensive app. Also, the other comment mentioning that manufactures don't allow opening apps in an app is I think wrong because it would sort of work as a launcher..
@@ketley2aug No bhai, actually I don't know anything about that. That's the reason I omitted it in the comment, I just wanted to talk about the using apps in the app thing. To me it feels like the RabbitAI and HumaneAI pin thing that creating a product just for the software doesn't makes sense when you already have a device but as you mentioned the fragmentation issue, yeah that could be a big thing here..
They have an App on existing phones. I have these glasses. But you have a lot of limitations in what you can do. I think people have now over estimated how much Apps can actually do that I see this comment too often when there is a lot of clear signs on limitations an App has
Thank you for this review, I actually been looking at this option and i have heard the first "beam" that came out was not so great, however after you showed the capabilities of beam pro, its a game changer, specially since you can use the android apps, i can totally see myself wanting to get one of this and experience for myself the refresh rate while connected to the beam pro, which is something im looking forward!
I have the original beam. It's useful. Not great lol. It is useful as my phone doesn't support usb video output, also the beam can be used as a powerbank. Other than streaming videos and using it as a powerbank, i can't do anything else on it.
I love how XREAL has placed the lenses in the correct location on the Beam Pro. I’ve often thought Apple would do the same on the iPhone but it seems like they think their small block of lenses is too iconic of a look to change! I’d love to have this glasses/Beam Pro combo!
Thanks Karl for the gear review. Been following you since you started! Just bought the XREAL Air 2 Pro, but this is the first time I hear about the Beam Pro! Great idea and addition to the glasses and as you said a cheap entry point to the word of Spacial Video. Keep up the good work man.
The best video I’ve seen so far.I think it’s a pretty cool gadget without the weight like the meta quest and Vision Pro.I have the air 2 pro and the old beam so I’m really excited about this-the old beam really needed the upgrade.I think Xreal is trying 😊
When my kiddos were born i had 180° cameras in the delivery so i could watch it back in VR in the future. 3D is the best way to go though. Such a cool way to capture momentS
Review: Xreal Air 2 Ultra & Beam Pro After spending a few days with the Xreal Air 2 Ultra and Beam Pro, here are my thoughts: Ultimate On-the-Go Display: This device is perfect for any Android app and streaming media. It’s truly the ultimate portable display solution. Seamless Connectivity: I’ve used it extensively with Anydesk, and thanks to Windows 11 Pro, I can use Android RDP to log directly into the console. It’s incredibly convenient. Screen Recording Limitation: The screen recording feature seems to be capped at 30 seconds, which might be a setting I haven’t discovered yet. However, this limitation doesn’t apply to 3D recording via the device. Specifications: Model: Xreal X4000, Android 14 Battery: 4300mAh Processor: 4 x ARM Cortex-A55 @1.80 GHz, 4 x ARM Cortex A55 @2.21 GHz Cores: 8 Cores, 3 Threads Resolution: 1080 x 1140 pixels, 300 DPI (Per Eye) Impressions: Field of View: The field of view is impressive, though future models will need to improve in this area to compete with the likes of the Apple Vision Pro. Display Quality: The screens are exceptional, with vivid colours that stand out. Performance: The 8GB model performs well, though the 6GB model might not be as robust. Overall, for the price, the Xreal Air 2 Ultra & Beam Pro offer a very impressive experience.
Thanks for the review, when I got my xreal air 2 pros I actually expected it be more like apple vision poor, but the device surpassed my expectations! It’s really amazing quality and it’s great for productivity
This is so cool and has a futuristic feel . . . just like in the movies. How was it with motion orientation? I sometimes get this when experiencing 3D and then moving around. Thanks for the extensive review and exposing your subscribers to new tech.
Wow, this is a fantastic review of the Xreal AR glasses! The immersive experience you described has me excited to explore AR technology. Keep up the great content! I've been following AR technology for a while, and the Xreal glasses seem like the perfect entry point. Your review helped clarify many features. I'd love to win a pair and dive deeper into the AR world.
this is amazing... i love watching 3D... now we can record with this new xreal beam pro... this review was satisfying... maybe one day the price would drop so everybody can afford... technology really rocks!
man, I've been watching content from AR GLASSES since the xreal was called NReal! it's amazing how much it has changed! I'm eager to see how amazing it will be when they add hand tracking to these! 🤩
Thanks for the review. I am excited about the new Beam Pro since it will be awesome for making videos for RUclips in 3D and also consuming 3D content using the XReal glasses (or any USB C Alt video capable glasses).
Nice video-thanks for taking the time to review these incredible Xreal products! This device gives us so many use cases. With the Android store available finally to the Xreal AR 2 Pro glasses, we literally now have millions of them with all of those apps. I’m looking forward to recording some of my sailing trips out on the ocean in 3d spatial. I also like the productivity option offered by Nebula where you can have two desktops side by side. That’s a big one for me. Being able to connect wirelessly to my Xbox at home is also a game changer. I wonder if we will start to see 3D games coming out soon that can be played while using the Xreal glasses and Beam II setup?
Wow. I didn't even know this existed if it wasn't for your review. And knowing that your gifting it to me is even better! Clicking on this vid was a win win.
Great explanation for spatial videos, it's really something you just have to see outside of a RUclips video. Do you find yourself dealing with motion sickness at all?
Hey Karl!! 🎉 great vid again!! It was awesome and I love the glasses!! I’ve done the little Vision Pro demo, but I Can’t wait to get me a pair of these!
I have the original Xreal Air and I think this is such a great upgrade! I will be ordering the combo (unless you pick my comment for the giveaway!! 🙂) Great review Karl!
Awesome review. Would you mind putting up a few photos straight from the camera (ideally without any compression from social media sites)? I think I've been waiting for something like this for years. I own the xreal air2 and love it - seems even future proof!
I’m looking at another XR glasses called the viture pro! It has a much brighter 2000nits and dyoptic adjustment! Would love to be able to try spatial video though! So not sure how would these compare with one another! Hope to win it!
Great Review Karl. The product and space seems to be maturing really well. Should Apple have designed Apple glasses instead of the Vision Pro to really capture this space first?
My question is, and I may have to ask XREAL about this, is seeing that this has stereo vision, will the XREAL glases themselves, be able to view the SBS stereo VR display from the Switch. For yes, the Swich has a VR mode. And both the Breath Of The Wild and Mario Odyssey have a VR mode. But you must use a form of google cardboard type VR display, using it's 720p display in split screen to work. And that is not good. If I can get full 1080p in SBS to work on the Switch, with the XREAL, that would be fantastic. Again, I may have to contact XREAL directly about this.
Hi Karl, long time follower/subscriber here! I’m a new content creator and I’m so excited about the possibilities when it comes to these products. Unfortunately after placing my order I never received any shipping information from Xreal or a response from customer support about my Beam Pro. I’m considering canceling my order altogether. Please let me know how to enter the giveaway because I really would love to experience the duo firsthand. Thanks in advance!
Hi, Great Video, Just had the Promo Email from XReal on these and came to RUclips to see what it was in more detail, Your video was excellent, very clear precise and thorough. Great content thank you. Liked and Subscribed.
It's cool how the phone is made to take videos for the glasses. A fun way to make content specifically for the glasses! Do they have a "youtube" type app to share and view other's videos?
Hello. Thank you for your comment. This is very thoughtful, and while you can transfer the video content created on XREAL Beam Pro onto other devices, and upload to sites like RUclips, having a dedicated application for spatial video viewing is a lovely idea.
Don't get it twisted division Pro is more for immersive VR. These gives you argumentative reality spatial computing. To top it off between the other XR glasses these are the only ones that are Google Certified and can give you Google Play and Google services on their devices.
Giveaway winner will get picked in the comments! Enjoy this budget option to get into the AR space!
Is this a thing you use yourself daily?
I can see myself using this lol . Love the video
Disclose your sponsorship.
Great detailed video nice to have a budget friendly option as the Vision Pro isn't suited to everyone's budget.
Cool!
I'll just say this. Buy it. You won't regret it. Especially if you have the original beam. It's feel's amazing in your pockets

Why can't this be an app on your existing phone? I mean, better hardware, no additional device, use existing data plan, easier software support, etc. Just sell the app or have a cheap subscription model in app.
Because technically it is not possible due to content and device fragmentation issue. Other manufacturers dont allow opening app within app.

I love the way the device works seamlessly with the glass
We absolutely agree, it was fantastic to watch.
@@XREAL_Globalplease launch in India by 2026-27. Its really great product. My next phone is going to be spatial phone.
@@XREAL_Global is it going to have the same non existing software update like the beam 1st gen and 480p streaming quality ?

The Xreal Beam Pro and Air 2 Pro are a power combination - much-needed additional functionality.

I wanna win one. I really love this concept of xreal beam pro. Being able to use all these android apps in spatial mode will be awesome.
Review: Xreal Air 2 Ultra & Beam Pro
After spending a few days with the Xreal Air 2 Ultra and Beam Pro, here are my thoughts:
Ultimate On-the-Go Display: This device is perfect for any Android app and streaming media. It’s truly the ultimate portable display solution.
Seamless Connectivity: I’ve used it extensively with Anydesk, and thanks to Windows 11 Pro, I can use Android RDP to log directly into the console. It’s incredibly convenient.
Screen Recording Limitation: The screen recording feature seems to be capped at 30 seconds, which might be a setting I haven’t discovered yet. However, this limitation doesn’t apply to 3D recording via the device.
Specifications:
Model: Xreal X4000, Android 14
Battery: 4300mAh
Processor: 4 x ARM Cortex-A55 @1.80 GHz, 4 x ARM Cortex A55 @2.21 GHz
Cores: 8 Cores, 3 Threads
Resolution: 1080 x 1140 pixels, 300 DPI (Per Eye)
Impressions:
Field of View: The field of view is impressive, though future models will need to improve in this area to compete with the likes of the Apple Vision Pro.
Display Quality: The screens are exceptional, with vivid colours that stand out.
Performance: The 8GB model performs well, though the 6GB model might not be as robust.
Overall, for the price, the Xreal Air 2 Ultra & Beam Pro offer a very impressive experience.
Just use samsung Dex, i have a Z fold 5 and the air 2 pros. Match made in heaven
This pairing of the Android device and glasses seems so awesome and totally makes sense. I'm loving this direction of tech!
I like your personality. Very warm and welcoming.
Thanks for the review, when I got my xreal air 2 pros I actually expected it be more like apple vision poor, but the device surpassed my expectations! It’s really amazing quality and it’s great for productivity
I tried those huge VR headsets, but this looks great! Would love to try it someday!😊
Hello. Thank you for your comment. We hope that you are able to try our devices one day soon!
This is the best actual review of the beam pro most of them don't explain the 3D video much.
This is good more companies coming into spacial computing. More competition good for consumer
This looks so cool, I love the direction tech is heading in and can't wait to see what other companies come out with in the future 🔥
This is so cool and has a futuristic feel . . . just like in the movies. How was it with motion orientation? I sometimes get this when experiencing 3D and then moving around. Thanks for the extensive review and exposing your subscribers to new tech.

Nice, they are very compact. Thank you for this very cool presentation!
Seems great for watching anime and sports without bothering anyone else
Always wanted to hear comparison vs. Apple Vision Pro. Thank you for covering this
man, I've been watching content from AR GLASSES since the xreal was called NReal! it's amazing how much it has changed! I'm eager to see how amazing it will be when they add hand tracking to these! 🤩

Great explanation for spatial videos, it's really something you just have to see outside of a RUclips video. Do you find yourself dealing with motion sickness at all?
It has smooth follow mode which prevents motion sickness.
Been saving up for used xreal beam , hopefully i wouldn't have to buy it and keep my money for other important stuff
Looks like a nice improvement on the first beam! Would be excited to try out
That looks so cool! I love how innovative team Android is!
No sponsorship disclosure?
I love the spatial video feature! Been using it to record moments with my 6 month old 😊
Hey Karl!! 🎉 great vid again!! It was awesome and I love the glasses!! I’ve done the little Vision Pro demo, but I Can’t wait to get me a pair of these!
I have the original Xreal Air and I think this is such a great upgrade! I will be ordering the combo (unless you pick my comment for the giveaway!! 🙂) Great review Karl!
Looks like an awesome device for suee! Just found the audio at the beginning was a lot louder than the rest of the video
This is very cool and informative! This can rule the VR markets. 🤙🏼
I didn't even know this was a thing! I love my XReal glasses, so I'm excited to try this out! Great review.
Awesome review. Would you mind putting up a few photos straight from the camera (ideally without any compression from social media sites)? I think I've been waiting for something like this for years. I own the xreal air2 and love it - seems even future proof!
Cool device. Wish the nebula app could open other apps sptially.
Thanks for the review exactly what I needed to make my decision on purchasing
Has the vision pro really been out for a year? Seems like it only went on sale this year.
Looks pretty cool. I like the sun glasses look more than the vision pro.
You can watch back spatial videos and panorama pictures on the Quest 3 can you use the beam with the Meta Quest 3???
Been thinking about getting these glasses they are hard to get in Canada
It would be great if you review the ultra and how (if at all) it would pair with this beam pro.
Looks like a good alternative to the apple vision pro gotta get myself one
Interesting device but I need to see it in person
If the glasses works with any android or iphone it would be a spoton experience 😊
I really love all the 3D memories you can record...great video
I’m looking at another XR glasses called the viture pro! It has a much brighter 2000nits and dyoptic adjustment! Would love to be able to try spatial video though! So not sure how would these compare with one another! Hope to win it!
Great Review Karl. The product and space seems to be maturing really well. Should Apple have designed Apple glasses instead of the Vision Pro to really capture this space first?
That is so cool! You always give great reviews, very thorough.
Great review.
I would love to give this a try. Looks fantastic
This is dope. Great explanation.
Such a cool device! this would be perfect w/ my steamdeck.
These look amazing. Great video explaining The newer features.
Keep up brother you are one of the best on youtube
Will try to get one, cause it cool.
this could be great for working at coffee shop and not have to bring my extra monitor.

thats really cool! It's on my wishlist!
Would love to win and finally try such an AR/VR device! Great video Carl!
That is pretty cool. Definitely seems to be more lightweight than the Vision Pro lol
Next gen glasses probably will include dual cameras to record spatial videos without that “media player”
Thanks
Great video. Do you know if you can still get the same feature using the other Xreal glasses?
Air 1 / air 2 / air 2 pro / air 2 ultra are compatible for same experience. Xreal light not compatible for same experience.
@@ketley2aug thank you
looks like they are giving avp an incredible run for their money.
Got beam this looks so much better
If I'm that person picked; My reality would have flavor. Thank you, Karl.
I love this! Would work amazing with my mobile workspace!
Que Incrivel, Love from Brasil.
I was planning on buying this after I didn’t get the glasses for my birthday until I realized I can’t afford it😢 still good price though
not the level of the vision pro but i think its a cool thing still

Thats a cool device.
Who you hot for F1 Sunday at Silverstone
This was a great review. Awesome, thanks!!
Ohhhh awesome you are giving one away! Fingers crossed it's me!
cant wait to hopefully check this out!
You must be real young, you could do the same stuff with the Gear Vr and had hand control. Good stuff as always.
Are you able to use these with friends in a way you could both have a pair and see the same screen
Yes possible but will need extra accessory that can support one video in and 2 video out. Like viture dock pro and sidetrak adapter.
Looks and sounds cool.
Thanks for the giveaway!
