Xreal is back at CES 2026 with an updated version of its entry-level AR glasses. The new Xreal 1S builds on last year’s Xreal One with a handful of notable upgrades and a $50 discount.
Although the Xreal 1S looks largely unchanged on the outside, Xreal has increased the resolution from 1080p to 1200p and increased the brightness from 600 to 700 nits. The field of view (FoV) and aspect ratio have also been improved, from 50 degrees and 16:9 on last year’s model to 52 degrees and 16:10.
The refresh rate is still capped at 120Hz, but Xreal has strengthened the Xreal 1S’s USB-C port and improved the carrying case to increase durability. Another notable addition is Real 3D, a new feature that can convert any 2D video content to 3D using the X1 Spatial Computing chip.

According to Xreal, this feature “requires no apps or special software, there are no DRM restrictions, and no proprietary players.” Users can easily enable the feature in the glasses settings to enjoy all content in immersive 3D. In addition to the Xreal 1S, the Real 3D feature will also be available on the Xreal 1 Pro via an OTA update.
About the new glasses said Chi Xu, co-founder and CEO of
The Xreal 1S costs $449 and is already available in the US through the company’s website, Amazon and Best Buy.
