Any chance you have the xreal hub that splits power? I ask because I love Samsung Dex, and Xreal Beam. Currently the xreal beam burns more power than the xreal beam receives via charge. Could you test charging phone connected to beam pro?
Curious to know if both devices can be charged to 100% while charging and using the device.
I'd appreciate any info you provide. Great video and content
the beam also has a hidden power button on the top right corner. Great video!
@@ArthurDias90 you are right, thanks
Can you customize your apps on that screen? Btw you are the best when it comes to explaining in detail about any AR devices.
@gifts4everyseason thank you fam, and yes you can customize the apps. I have my first page arranged with all my favorite apps.
you deserve 100fold the subscribers.hope this will be available in Europe soon
@@genericnpc7865 thank you 🙏🏾, I hope so.
I've watched a dozen reviews of the PRO and you definitely offer best content! (nobody even mentions the old beam)
Thank you!
@@nicksrub my pleasure, i felt it was necessary to mention.
Great video Kola, appreciate the way you broke down the differences! Can't wait to see more from you with #XREALBeamPro!
@XREAL_Global thank you for your support
I was waiting for your review! I really wanna try it asap
@KorlicD thank you, you'll love it if you're a fan of ar
Emphasizing it's not meant to replace your phone!
@michiahnaylor7476 yes! Thanks for your support.
Thanks Kola for all the new ideas, and awesome reviews, however dose this device work with other glasses too, like the rayneo XR for instant, if so is there any limitations?
@nonizime the glasses work like any other glasses, but the beam pro is like no other. It's what gives the glasses power. You can pretty much download any android applications to it and it will run. So yes you can download the applications for like Rayneo glasses, and it'll work, but the experience won't be any different than what you'd get with any other android phone that supports display port. But since this device was built by Xreal for their glasses, only xreal glasses will be able to use the nebula os operating system on the device. Nebula OS is what takes the ar experience to a whole new level.
This is the review that most usually skip. you point out important points, and answered my most unanswered questions regarding xreal and the beam. thank you. hopefully you can show, how it can be connected to mac, if it can be a replacement for a monitor, if I can play netflix or drm stuff that requires HDCP devices to play. then Im solved here. thank you Kola
Thank you... Unfortunately, i don't think i'd be able to replace a monitor because it doesn't have the hardware to support video input, but perhaps maybe streaming in future updates. Netflix streams in hd though
Hi, thanks for the video! Is it possible to change the projected distance like in the original beam?
@@nogge yes, you can
Thank you, I have the Beam but I was seriously considering this as I want to use the glasses on the train mainly.
@MightyScharp it'll work great for that use case, especially with the multi windows support.
@@KingKola_ great, that's the only thing the advertising materials from Xreal couldn't answer and I was waiting for your review. Keep it up, I really like your videos covering the glasses!👍🏻
@@MightyScharp my pleasure, and thank you.
Hi Kola great vid, what's the current situation with Nebula for Windows?
Honestly still the same as the last time i made a video about it.
@KingKola .. Question : does it have a slot for sim card or is it capable to have LTE ( in case im out and about and don't have any WiFi ) .. just wondering, that would be dope ..
Holla Back .. i pre-ordered 8GB + 256GB version , looking forward to receiving my Beam Pro ..
My version doesn't, but there will be a 5g LTE version available soon if not already.
@@KingKola_ .. dang .. I need to see if the one I ordered has LTE capabilities .. might be returning or cancelling my order .. or I may just buy another Beam Pro LTE , if available ..
We shall see .
@@KingKola_ I believe it will be available later this year. October or something if I am not mistaken.
Any idea if they're going to keep updating the Xreal Beam? Seems like it could do a lot of what this device is doing with software updates, assuming that's it's powerful enough. I'll have to compare the specs at some point
Yes, updates should continue. On this new beam, you can't connect things like xbox, or switch to this because it doesn't have video input, but the original beam does.
@@KingKola_ .. oh wow, interesting 🤔 .. guess I won't sell or get rid of my 1st Gen Beam .. I'll keep both 1st and 2nd Gen .. until we figure out how to connect to Xbox, ECT ..
@@unonice yup, i won't be getting rid of my 1st gen beam either.
@@KingKola_ doesn't this have 2 usb c at the bottom where 1 acts as input/charging? I am sure I saw this in demo.
How do you connect the xreal beam pro to PC and play video games?
@@undisturbed809 wireless connection, but depending on your wifi connection and game, there might be lag.
Hope u can cover 3 or 6dof(for ultra?) relative to pc use on ur next video. I've been interested in the xreal for a while now, specifically as a replacement for my multiple windows pc monitor set up for work (browser + ms office). I understand that ms office would probably be available on the beam pro without the need for a pc but the ms office on android has very limited formating options.
I really want this for pc gaming too.
Thanks kola I have the first version of Xreal glasses, is it compatible with Xreal Beam Pro?
@@iiiawtariii yes it is
The other part that is used for a charging, can it also be connected to USB hub for ethernet and keyboard game controllers via wires?
No it can't
Tell us about Netflix quality does it work on the full package of Netflix? I have the Chinese version it’s working good but i want to know the global version if it’s better i will get one but it’s not very good quality
@@supraQ8 yup, full Netflix package, it streams in HD.
Am I able to watch netflix yt, while screen mirror ing? Is it only not possible in nebula app android?
Yes, you can. You can start a video on the device and then continue the video or any app once you plug your glasses in.
Please make a video comparing all of the latest AR glasses and their respective accessories (Xreal Ultra, Xreal Beam Pro, Viture One, Rokid Max, Rokid Station 2, TCL RayNeo, etc).
We would like to know the Pros and Cons of everything and which ones have the best display quality, screen size, etc.
Which glasses generate heat on certain parts of your face?
Which glasses have proprietary connectors?
Etc etc.
@PSYCHOV3N0M I hope to get my hands on the Ultra when it comes out. I'll be making a video on the Rayneo with its pocket tv device probably next week, i'm trying to get something going with viture as well. As far as proprietary connection, Viture is actually the only one i know of that does that in terms of physical connections.
Is the beam pro google certified? Some apps require to be google certified to be downloaded/use?
Full google compatibility.
So you have used the device. Are there any other spacial features that you might come to it. Like casual games that could exploit the 3D element like the apple vision pro, or is it too rudimentary? Do you think a developer could create an AR or most interestingly as VR environment with the Beam Pro and the newest glasses?
Interesting questions. There are a few casual games avaible in 3d, but in the way in 6dof. With the current set up, i'd say yes it's very basic. However with the Air 2 Ultra which has cameras, that could be something different and much more, but the ultra isn't available yet.
It's coming to me real soon. They obviously have big plans for the Ultra with the Besm Pro. Thanks for your review. I watched all related ones. Need to get a url to that bike its cool.
@Rowan1974 yeah i can't wait for the ultra. And thanks
Sadly these glasses not support any of the mainstream VR AR core sdk-s only they own so no matter what app you gonna download probably not gonna work natively.
@objec Just like with pcs macs.and.other o/s's common like formats and portable coding will take place. It's part of the evolution
Do you think this is better than the upcoming Rokid Station 2?
I assume you mean the Rokid lite? If so, i'm many ways yes. The Rokid lite is cloud based, so you really won't be able add apps to it, and possibly play videos from services Netflix, etc. But what it will be great at is working with cloud services like Microsoft office as they work great cloud based. I can't wait to try it though and really explore it's potential.
I'd let other folks be the guinea pigs for this. The original beam seemed never have any support and was almost useless. Only way to make it interesting was to side-load it. It got hot as heck when using and the battery drained so fast, even with a power source. Don't be that early adopter and let someone else figure out if it actually is worth it and gets future support!
The more I think about it, XReal should just create a proper PC/MAC app so we don't need this cell-phone sized thing.
Well, at least they provided a trade-in I guess (checking if I bought thru Amazon).
Great breakdown with the history and challenges! There are some people with point out and criticize Beam Pro has no DP INPUT which limits all sorts of connectivity if you want direct connection to say a PC. How does one solve this problem with Beam Pro? Or how do you get around the limitation of having no DP INPUT?
@TradeThisChart-td5ne thank you. Right now i personally use remote desktop connection, and Xreal team told us they will be adding ota update for miracast for wireless connectivity to devices usch as PC's.
this device gets me a little excited because I'm an iphone 14 user. What i need to know is if this device is compatible with the viture xr pro glasses because I invested in those.
It can open viture's android app called spacewalker, but it's features are very basic. You'll get the best experience with xreal glasses and xreal beam pro. Or Viture glasses and viture band. But yes it does work.
@@KingKola_ so spacewalker android is basic. I'll have to keep an eye on that over some time. I don't own a recent android device to even try. i do own a steam deck oled. as far as viture's neck band i say they need to keep working on it.
I wonder if the "InfiRay T2 Pro 256X192" thermal imaging camera will work with "Beam Pro", unfortunately it doesn't work on the old Beam version, I don't know why, which is a pity, because it would make a good duo.
I have no idea, but if it does work on a regular android phone, it should be able to work on the beam pro.
If it was not for the 3D or spatial option on this device, I most likely would buy only the ventura glasses, but Xreal Beam Pro is a game changer.... now I'm in doubt what to do. Guess I wait a while for new developments....
If video input port isn't a deal breaker, then get the xreal/beam pro combo, trust me. I feel like i was the first to criticize the original beam, but this one is definitely different.
@@KingKola_ Thanks, that sounds great. I'll wait a few weeks before I decide what to buy. Maybe I get to see some pictures or videos taken with the xreal beam pro. I could use my Quest3 for that..
Exited, waiting for delivery also the Air 2 Ultra. Hope they have enough interested developers. Both cost me £938 bucks!
Fingers crossed
So I bought the pro and I liked some things with the beam but overall it was a hassle. IK a lot of people don't want another device to watch content but I personally do. Kind of reminds me of how ipods were used strictly for entertainment purposes. I mostly watch content on my iPad so having a smaller device just entertainment is great. That way I fong have to consume my phone battery
@@100Stratusfiedx absolutely,I love that it frees my phone of those.
Does the Beam Pro work with Rokid glasses ????
Which rokid glasses do you have?
If you own a pair of the rokid max glasses, I encourage you to order the rokid station 2
@LegendHunter22 yes, but since nebula os was built by xreal for their glasses, you'll have a better experience with the rokid station for rokid glasses.
Does the xreal Beam pro work with other xr glasses?
Yes, and no. I'll explain in my next video.
Rokid recently also released the Rokid AR Lite and I am quite confusing to these two products now.
@@4everTheNoob i'd go with this xreal combo.
Ineresting you say that, given the rokid OS having a more solid build@KingKola_
The device says it's 90hz. It doesn't say what screen supports 90hz. Is it the built in screen? Is it both. Also, the original Beam had 90hz but it was only for head rotation. Content only ran at 60hz. Is that the same? I wanted to be able to stream games at 90hz from my pc and maybe a couple small mobile games if it could handle it. I did buy this but I have too many questions about it just like the original Beam that they did a poor job of documenting.
@MobileDecay the display of the physical device is 90hz, but the resolution you get in the glasses are 60hz when connected. But has you know software update can easily take it to 120hz. As far as your goal, keep in mind the beam pro doesn't have a video input for wired connections. So every option will be on wife using something like xbox cloud, steamlink, moonlight and such, which may introduce some lag depending on your wifi.
@@KingKola_ Thanks. I know it doesn't have display port. I was hoping to at least be able to stream using moonlight at 90hz. 120hz would be even cooler!
@@KingKola_ Refresh Rate and Resolution are two different things.
60Hz is not a resolution.
@PSYCHOV3N0M It was a typing mistake, and i'm sure he knew what i meant.
Bluetooth power and connector would be fire please one of you tech engineers make it happen
I don't see the this product on amazon yet
This is an early production unit, but you can order it on Xreal's website.
✌️✌️
Just found out that the Beam Pro has no USB video inputs...it is charge only. One step forward, but a huge step back if you want to stream from a PC, Steam Deck, or even a Switch.
Yeah i know what you mean
How gaming with handheld
Can you live stream in 3d?
I honestly don't know, but there won't be any point even if you could because the viewers will need 3d capable devices, otherwise it'll just look like a weird 2d video.
My Beam has only 20GB of internal storage. I can put 1080p videos on the Beam.
How big is the internal storage of the Beam Pro?
Does it have GPS? When I ride an e-bike, I want to use a gps speedometer app or navigation.
Can the Beam Pro be used as a pointer like the original Beam?
128g or 256g option and expandable, yes can be used like a pointer. I can't confirm gps. An xreal team member says it doesn't, but either the wifi positioning is very good or she's incorrect.
The 5G version will have GPS. Despite that, you can still do Bluetooth GPS tethering with your mobile.
@@nicolacasali8304 good to know
