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.

I have the beam pro 128 gig and Air glasses for a week now, great fun. The beam pro was easy to set up out of the box but weird it does not come with a usbc charging cable. It opens up features like switching between 2 display sizes on the air glasses. Body anchor, smooth follow modes, 3D camera videoing. Honey comb spatial display of apps on the glasses. Sound is just ok and I get an annoying warning message about turning up the volume then it displays - glasses not responding wait- close app . Very glitchy . Without the beam pro it just mirrored my IPad which is ok but doesn’t give me full features as mentioned. Overall good product, 4 stars for annoying warnings on the display. And no charge cable !

Bought this a little while after getting the XREAL Air 2 Pro glasses, and this ended up being a very handy addition. It was super easy to set up, and immediately worked with the Glasses without any extra steps. The visuals are amazing, and the ability to scroll and tap using your phone as a pointer is a clever workaround for not having eye tracking or requiring a physical mouse. I personally haven't had any issues with eye strain or shaky display while using these. And having 2 USB-C ports has been useful to allow charging while also plugging into the glasses. It's basically like a stand-alone phone too with access to the Google Play store, so I can take it along with me and use it for most internet-enabled apps.I didn't really plan on buying it for the camera features, but was pleasantly surprised at how good the photos are. The 3D feature is really cool, and really makes the photos pop in a way that just isn't possible with your standard smart phone cameras. Overall, for the last month of usage it's been a smooth experience without any issues.

I purchased a pair of Xreal Air Glasses last week not knowing anything about the technology and was hoping they would help make my nighttime gaming sessions a little more comfortable. I mostly play my Legion Go in bed at night before I go to bed. I was led to believe that in order to have a bigger screen that was fixed in AR space I needed the Beam. I researched as much as I could and thought the Beam was something it was not. Apparently you can only STREAM the source to the Beam not plug in your device directly. I was really confused by this and there's not a lot of helpful information on that but after spending a whole day trying to figure out how to do it I realized the Beam is just a companion device that basically does everything your Android phone would do AND you can plug in the device and charge it while using it. This is not what I thought it was and for $200? Not worth it in my opinion. Now between the XReal AIr, the Beam and adapter ive spent almost as much as just buying the Xreal One glasses. I will be returning this and the glasses and just get the Xreal One glasses.

While great for using a single app in spatial mode I still find myself using my S20+ for Samsung Dex for experiencing multiple apps at once. Hopefully future software updates on the Beam Pro can make this a true contender in that market.-They advertise multi window spatial view but it focuses on one app at a time while the other is placed partially out of view to the side of your main app. Would be great to move both apps inside the FOV for consumption at the same time.-App compatibility is pretty great but GeForce Now has its issues when trying to run 60fps the app bugs out. Dropping the app to 30fps allows for playability but still laggy. Xbox cloud gaming works fine.-Beam Pro display maxes out at 60fps, not sure how it goes past 60 on external display if it does. And if it does then why stop at 90?While software support should continue on their devices I think the main issue is research and development in hardware and recertification of GMS.
