Excellent for casual users
**UPDATE 10/14** Although I purchased these understanding that there was no built in/physical head tracking (yet) the Viture team still worked with me and went above and beyond to rectify my situation PLUS they helped me with a technical problem I had with another product of theirs that I love (neckband pro). If you are on the fence about XR glasses, you can at least purchase these knowing the customer service is actually helpful and will do the right things to offer remedies for you. In between 4 and 5 stars but because of their sincere and quick customer service plus the overall execution of these glasses, I still rate them a 5 but they’re just not for me yet. If this is your first pair or XR/display glasses, they are an excellent product. Unfortunately for me, I’ve had 3 evolutions of the Xreal glasses before trying these out which my eyes have adapted to. PROs o The Luma image quality is extremely sharp, bright, and color accurate. I love the warm true color tones of these glasses. o Aiding in that sharpness is the physical diopter adjustment on each lens. I wear glasses and this allowed me to dial in a crystal clear picture o The edges on all these glasses tend to be blurry at the very edge and sharpness tends to trail off around the edges but these glasses have the very least edge blurring I’ve seen. CONs o The reason I’m returning these is the lack of native head tracking/3DOF which was supposed to be enabled with software after release. Because this feature isn’t enabled yet in all viewing situations, the image bounces and jitters with the slightest move of the head. I was only able to manage 20 minutes of viewing before getting sick from the micro jitters. Vertigo inducing. I’m sensitive to that and others may not experience that at all or may adjust (like I had to with others even with head tracking). o The lack of screen size adjustment contributed to my uncomfortable viewing experience. The image is big and the only easy way to adjust that is by physically repositioning the glasses. I had to try out all the nose pads before even being able to see the entire image. Other glasses allow you to adjust the screen position in space, making it bigger and smaller by bringing the image closer or further digitally. I believe there is some size adjustment in Spacewalker but I feel like you lose a bit of sharpness in that app. o The glasses are light which is both good and bad. Easy to wear for a long time but they also don’t feel secure. I tried them out on a commuter train with the Viture Neckband and once you get the cable in a solid position, they only bounce around slightly. They also felt a little more weighted towards the front, obviously, where the heavier components are. For some that’s not the best. For me, it allowed me to use the nose pads for more stability. Overall they are great if they are a fit for your face and tolerance. The head tracking/3DOF issue is fixed if you use Spacewalker with the neckband or the Spacewalker app on a phone which I believe requires an additional adapter, for the iPhone at least, to enable 3DOF. Spacewalker on the neckband consumes battery faster and isn’t smooth at all. The spacewalker app on my iPhone actually has a cool dashboard including a live streaming tv section but no head tracking until you add a dongle. At that point, it becomes a little bit too much to use on the go. At home or long flights only if I have to break out cables, an adapter, and battery bank/charger. I mentioned the neckband. It’s amazing tech for this space. An Android based wearable to power and provide content, gaming, and immersive experiences for your glasses. Since my XREAL glasses process head tracking, DOF, and screen adjustment on the glasses not software, I use those with the neckband. Best combo ever until the Viture Beast comes out. That’s probably what I was expecting from these. Read more
