That&#8217;s a full $74 less than the similar XREAL Air 2 Pro.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve had the RayNeo Air 2s, the previous model, for some time now, and I do really enjoy using them. They&#8217;re comfortable, the display is good, the audio is superb, and it&#8217;s a simple, plug and play experience.<\/p>\n<p>The RayNeo Air 3s is an upgrade to what I have, despite the similar design. The display is brighter at 650 nits, which is above even what the XREAL One has. The audio has now become a &#8220;world&#8217;s first dual opposing acoustic chamber design,&#8221; which I&#8217;m not sure I understand fully, but sounds impressive.<\/p>\n<p>The audio on the RayNeo glasses I&#8217;ve been using is excellent, so if the Air 3s is an upgrade on that, hoo boy.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also a 120Hz mode for the display. With face-mounted displays, I find the higher the refresh rate, the more comfortable I feel. And that display can be as big as a virtual 201-inch panel. Like I said, personal cinema.<\/p>\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.20%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ofrCEVwbYNtcgWRRGHVeTJ.jpg\" alt=\"Wearing the RayNeo Air 2s AR glasses.\"   loading=\"lazy\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ofrCEVwbYNtcgWRRGHVeTJ.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ofrCEVwbYNtcgWRRGHVeTJ.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>One area RayNeo does lose out is not having Electrochromic Dimming on its lenses. (Image credit: Windows Central)<\/p>\n<p>The major upgrade in my eyes though over previous RayNeo glasses is that the Air 3s supports <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.windowscentral.com\/tag\/usb-c\" data-auto-tag-linker=\"true\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.windowscentral.com\/tag\/usb-c\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">USB-C<\/a> DisplayPort. That reduces the need for adapters, including the new <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.windowscentral.com\/tag\/nintendo-switch\" data-auto-tag-linker=\"true\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.windowscentral.com\/tag\/nintendo-switch\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Nintendo Switch<\/a> 2. For HDMI outputs, such as the <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.windowscentral.com\/tag\/xbox-series-x\" data-auto-tag-linker=\"true\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.windowscentral.com\/tag\/xbox-series-x\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Xbox Series X<\/a>, you will still need an adapter.<\/p>\n<p>I use my RayNeo glasses a lot with my <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.windowscentral.com\/tag\/steam-deck\" data-auto-tag-linker=\"true\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.windowscentral.com\/tag\/steam-deck\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Steam Deck<\/a>, and I only have one real criticism. Unlike XREAL, you don&#8217;t get the Electrochromic Dimming.<\/p>\n<p>The lenses on the glasses are fixed, and they&#8217;re quite dark, so you can&#8217;t really move about inside the house with them on as easily as you can with XREAL. There are days I have my XREAL Air 2 Pro glasses on the whole day, entirely because I can change the level of dimming.<\/p>\n<p>But if that&#8217;s not important to you, then the RayNeo Air 3s is the smartest call right now, especially for such a low price. You can also get prescription lenses to fit if you need them.<\/p>\n<p>For gaming and media consumption, this is a superb choice, so get a pair while you can.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I love my XREAL Air 2 Pro AR glasses.
