We Love Xreal’s AR Glasses, and This Bundle Is an Extra $50 Off for Labor Day

Xreal’s new One Pro glasses really impressed us in testing and this Labor Day, you can pick up a full bundle for even less.

Xreal has made a name for itself making some of the best augmented reality (AR) smart glasses, and its latest release has been turning heads. But smart glasses are usually pretty expensive, which can be off-putting for many.

Fortunately, I found that for Labor Day, the Xreal One Pro + Beam Pro AR bundle is $50 off, bringing the price down to $798. The bundle was already a steal, netting you $120 worth of savings — but this extra $50 off gets you a total of $170 in savings. This offer ends on Sept. 1, so you’d better act fast.

CNET’s expert Scott Stein got a look at the Xreal One Pro AR glasses earlier this year. He came away impressed with how futuristic and practical they already feel.

The One Pro glasses are designed to bring AR into everyday life with sleek hardware and impressive visuals. They project a massive virtual display right in front of your eyes — up to 170 inches — making everything from watching movies to multitasking with apps more immersive and intuitive.

With lightweight frames and a streamlined fit, they look and feel like modern eyewear rather than bulky headsets, which makes them easier to wear for extended sessions.

The included Beam Pro AR mobile device adds even more functionality to the experience. Acting as a dedicated AR controller, it powers apps and streams content directly to the glasses. We like that this removes the need to tether to your usual phone or laptop, making the system more flexible for gaming, work or streaming media anywhere.

Xreal has been refining its AR ecosystem for years, and the One Pro is one of the most polished consumer-ready takes we’ve seen so far. While AR is still an emerging technology, the One Pro offers a real glimpse at how seamlessly it can integrate into daily routines.

Why this deal matters

This is the first major discount I’ve seen on the Xreal One Pro bundle since its launch, and it makes diving into AR a little more affordable. At $798, you’re getting both the flagship glasses and the Beam Pro device, which unlocks their full potential.

Since the offer only runs through Sept. 1, it’s a limited-time chance to save on one of the most innovative wearable devices available right now.
