RayNeo Air 3s
Score: 76/100Rankings
The XREAL Beam Pro is an Android-powered companion device featuring dual 50 MP 3D cameras and a 90 Hz LCD, delivering high-resolution spatial capture and smooth visuals. Its battery capacity and limited RAM can lead to short usage times and occasional lag, and it relies on separate AR glasses for a complete experience. Best suited for AR enthusiasts who already own XREAL glasses and need a portable 3D capture tool.
The RayNeo Air 3s are ultra-light AR/XR glasses featuring a 1200-nit micro-OLED display and quad open-air speakers, delivering bright visuals and immersive audio. Their trade-offs include a narrow 47° field of view and reliance on an external host with limited 3DoF tracking. Ideal for travelers and casual gamers seeking a portable high-brightness screen.

Professional reviewers commend the Beam Pro for its affordability, full Google Play access, and impressive dual 50 MP 3D cameras that enable vivid spatial capture. They also praise the 90 Hz LCD and Wi-Fi 6 for smooth cloud-gaming and streaming, while noting the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 delivers solid performance. However, they caution that limited RAM, reliance on separate AR glasses, lack of cellular, and only 3DoF tracking keep it from competing with standalone headsets.
Everyday users love the easy integration with Google Play, the vivid 3D photos, and the device's portability and expandable storage. Common frustrations revolve around occasional app lag, short battery life during heavy use, the necessity of owning separate AR glasses, and the desire for built-in cellular connectivity.
Professional reviewers applaud the RayNeo Air 3s for their unprecedented 1200-nit brightness, 120 Hz refresh rate and high-quality HueView 2.0 micro-OLED display, which together deliver sharp, vivid visuals even outdoors. They also praise the quad-speaker audio system with Whisper privacy mode and the eye-care-focused 3840 Hz dimming. However, critics note the narrow 47° field of view, limited 3 DoF tracking and reliance on an external host device as significant drawbacks for immersive AR experiences.
Everyday users consistently highlight the glasses' massive 201-inch virtual screen and lightweight comfort, making them ideal for travel, in-flight movies and casual gaming. The bright display and powerful audio are frequently praised, while recurring complaints focus on the tunnel-vision feel from the limited FoV, occasional audio leakage, imperfect IPD adjustment and the need for a strong host device to unlock full performance.
