Bad quality product. Screen was pixel damaged already for new product from the box from the very beginning.

I have been using the Air 2 Pro glasses for a little under a month now. They’ve been really good for flights and other commutes when I want a bigger screen. I’ve also used them with my work laptop as a second display when remotely working. After some more time with them, I realized that just using my phone with them had a few limitations. I couldn’t run my own streaming apps without the phone screen continuously turned on. The glasses also took up my phone’s only USB port. This meant that the glasses really ate at my phone’s battery, even in flight mode. So when I heard about the Beam Pro, I decided to make the purchase. They’re more closely integrated with the glasses, and you can use any app with the NebulaOS, which is more like a launcher specifically made for the glasses. They basically fixed my only complaint with the Air 2 Pro (which is really a complaint with my phone, not the actual glasses). There doesn’t seem to be any latency associated with the glasses, which is great. I’ve done a few things with them so far, namely PS5 remote play, local gaming (emulation), and video streaming (Plex and Max). The picture quality using NebulaOS is about the same as using my phone, which is to say, very vivid and visible. I connected a PS5 controller for remote play and gaming, and the Beam Pro handled it all very well. There’s a button to toggle between smooth follow (screen follows your eyes), and fixed position (screen floating in space). Smooth follow has some added stabilization, which makes using the glasses way more comfortable than just plugging in your phone, which if you move around too much, might get dizzy. This has been a BLESSING honestly. I also tried using the Beam Pro with my laptop, setting up virtual monitors via Parsec and SpaceDesk. The Beam Pro can run multiple windows, so I was able to set up two floating monitors within the glasses. I turned on fixed position and enlarged the Beam Pro windows, so the elements were way easier to see than just plugging the glasses in. The product runs Android, so it’s really versatile. It’s a new product and the team seems to be pretty responsive on Reddit, so I’m looking forward to some other creative use cases.

Great device. Camera is awesome, so many features.

The phone is nothing spectacular, and the apps for the glasses are in the same range. They would freeze or restart or mal function. If you dont open the apps using their dedicated app you will not have the flexibility to “fix” in position the “screen” which limits the amount of apps that you can actually use it for.

Very strange and underwhelming experience so far. I've been in the Apple ecosystem for decades at this point and this is the first Android product I have tried. It came with 0% battery so would not turn on. That was a first for me. I figured that might be the case so I plugged it in and it eventually got enough juice to turn on. Then all the apps and the system needed updating. I must have received a unit that had been sitting in the warehouse for a long time because it was pretty much useless in the state I received it. UPDATE 2 days later: After fully charging the unit and doing all the software updates required by both Android and Nebula (XReal's OS) it works great and I am finally enjoying it. The integration of Android and Nebula isn't always as smooth or bug free as the Apple products I'm used to but it's definitely workable, while much less bulky and expensive as an Apple Vision Pro headset.

I'm sorry, but I just don't see the point...if you have an Android phone, and especially if you own a newer model, Samsung Dex works way better than this. This device just complicates everything, and is not intuitive at all.
