The Xreal One Pro are the company’s best AR glasses, touting thin optics that keep out reflections so you can enjoy a crisp, contrast-rich image of whatever content you’re watching. Xreal has permanently cut their price from $649 to $599, making them $150 more than its entry-level (but still good) 1S glasses that debuted shortly after CES 2026. You can find the One Pro in stock at Amazon, Best Buy, and from Xreal itself.

The 1S and One Pro share a well-built design in common, not to mention some identical features. Both have the X1 chip, allowing for three degrees of freedom (3DoF) that lets you anchor your content in virtual space, and both support Real 3D, which applies a surprisingly good 3D effect to 2D content.

Xreal One Pro

The Xreal One Pro project a huge virtual display that feels like a 171-inch screen, using micro-OLED panels, a 57-degree field of view, and a 120Hz refresh rate. Powered by Xreal’s X1 chip, the smart glasses offer low-latency tracking with optional 6DoF spatial anchoring so your screen stays fixed in place. They also feature built-in speakers and work with a wide range of USB-C devices.

Where to Buy:

If you’re tempted by the idea of having a big, private screen to watch movies, TV shows, and video games on, I recently published a piece that compares the One Pro to Xreal’s cheaper 1S, as well as to Viture’s similarly-priced Beast glasses. The One Pro are most similar to the Beast glasses in terms of visual fidelity, but for a multitude of reasons I get into in the piece, there’s no perfect pair of glasses yet. However, it’s nice that Xreal’s best AR glasses just got a little cheaper.

GE made a 27-inch smart display for above your stove that streams Netflix and Spotify

GE wants to put a smart display at head level while you’re cooking. The Kitchen Hub is a 27-inch touchscreen that runs Android and also functionally replaces your exhaust vent at its mounting above your stove. The company first teased the device at last year’s CES but ultimately never shipped it . It has updated this year’s version with a sleeker interface and tons of features like video calls and streaming movies. The Kitchen Hub supports Google Assistant, meaning you can ask Google to create grocery lists, look up recipes, or control other smart home devices like thermostats, lights, and cameras. The Hub can also run apps like Netflix and Spotify, so you can stream The Great British Baking Show or listen to music while you cook. There’s...

Mophie’s battery pack case for the new iPhones lets you use wired headphones

-

Mophie’s newest iPhone battery case, the Juice Pack Access, represents a first for the company: an exposed Lightning port. Mophie’s cases typically plug into each iPhone’s Lightning port, and that’s how it charges the phone. This new case leaves that port exposed, so users can plug their Lightning headphones in and listen to music, even while using the case. The case will support the iPhone X, XS, XS Max, and XR. Instead of the Micro USB port that’s included with the Juice Pack Air for the iPhone X, the Access case can charge wirelessly on any Qi-enabled charging pad. It’ll charge the iPhone first and then focus on itself. It also has a USB-C port, so it can be wired and charge, too. Mophie says the iPhone XS and X case provides up to...

TP-Link unveils its first family of Wi-Fi 6 routers

-
Image
The next generation of Wi-Fi is starting to arrive, and today TP-Link is unveiling its first family of next-gen products. There are six devices in total, ranging from high-end routers to a range extender, all of which use the new Wi-Fi 6 standard to deliver better performance and faster speeds. At the top of the line is the Deco X10, a tri-band mesh router that’ll work with the rest of TP-Link’s Deco series to spread Wi-Fi signal throughout a home. There are basically zero devices that connect to Wi-Fi 6 signals right now, so there’s not much of a reason to upgrade yet, but the Deco X10 at least provides one: it’ll use Wi-Fi 6 to create a stronger link between routers, speeding up the overall connection. You’ll need two Deco X10 units to... Continue reading… source https://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2019/1/7/18167185/tp-link-wifi-6-first-router-family-ces-2019
