Xreal's 1S AR glasses have dropped to $399, their lowest price ever, following a $50 discount available at Amazon and Xreal's website.

The USB-C connected video glasses project a large virtual display for gaming, movies, and computing tasks. At their new price point, the 1S sits $100 above Xreal's entry-level xbx A01 Plus model. The 1S distinguishes itself with features absent on cheaper alternatives, making it the more compelling option for users seeking a well-rounded AR experience. The glasses connect directly to compatible devices via USB-C, eliminating the need for additional hardware. Xreal positions the 1S as a middle-ground option in its AR glasses lineup. The discount narrows the gap between premium and budget models, potentially making the enhanced feature set more accessible to cost-conscious buyers. The promotion applies to both direct purchases from Xreal and Amazon listings, giving consumers multiple buying options at the same reduced price.
