Overview
- XREAL began selling the 1 Pro+ on Thursday, Oct. 15, with a $599 entry price and availability from XREAL's website while wider retail rollout and regional pricing remain pending.
- The key hardware change is a jump to up to 1,200 nits peak brightness from the prior 700 nits, which the company says will help viewing in offices, on planes and near windows.
- Software and image updates include AI HDR that adjusts highlights and shadows, three viewing modes (Reading, Movie, Standard), and Real 3D conversion that now runs up to 60Hz for smoother spatial motion.
- The 1 Pro+ keeps the X1 spatial‑computing chip, native 3DoF tracking and a 57° field of view while offering the XREAL Eye camera as a separate or bundled add‑on to provide full 6DoF and gesture control.
- Early hands‑on reviews praise the brighter display and improved comfort from a redesigned nose pad but flag occasional conversion artifacts, travel‑case shortcomings and the need for longer tests to confirm real‑world performance.
