TCL is exploring making tech beyond QLED TVs, and the RayNeo Air 4 Pro AR/XR Smart Glasses are its latest project. These glasses project your phone, laptop, or gaming system into a 201-inch virtual display that only you can see. Amazon has them available for $249 (originally $299) when you use the on-page coupon. At $249, they would be at their lowest price since their recent release date, according to price-tracking tools.
The RayNeo Air 4 Pro just came out in late February, but they're far from the only screen-mirroring wearable monitor you can buy on the market. The XReal One Pro are another pair that competes with the RayNeo Air 4 Pro. Senior Staff Writer Stephen Johnson tested both in case you want to see if one or the other fits your needs better. However, Stephen named the RayNeo Air 4 Pro the best value in AR right now, with a price that punches well above its weight by offering flagship features that more expensive competitors have.
You can watch more than movies or shows or scroll on your phone with these glasses. The 120Hz refresh rate means gaming looks good, too—you can connect a PS5, Xbox, Switch, or your phone to the virtual screen. There's also a 3D feature that upgrades 2D media as long as it's saved in your phone or laptop (no streaming).
The audio works with four speakers tuned with Bang & Olufsen using directional sound, very much like open-ear headphones, offering a surround sound and spatial audio feature that makes the viewing experience more immersive. Keep in mind that these won't work for productivity if you want to use them as a second monitor, since it projects into wherever you're looking; if you look at your laptop screen, the virtual projection will overlap your computer monitor.
