TCL’s new RayNeo Air 4 Pro AR glasses are hitting the market soon. They promise to shake up the smart glasses scene, which has been dominated by brands like Meta and Xreal.
These glasses will officially launch on January 25, 2026, priced at $299, making them a budget-friendly choice compared to others out there. Notably, they claim to be the first AR glasses with HDR10, raising the bar for visual quality. Users can connect them to their smartphone or laptop using a USB-C cable, essentially projecting an extra screen wherever you want it.
Top Specs That Stand Out
They come loaded with impressive specs. The display is a SeeYa 0.6-inch Micro-OLED that offers remarkable clarity and color. During a demo, I noticed how bright and vibrant the screen was compared to the Xreal One Pro I’ve been testing, which sometimes feels a bit dim.
Here’s a closer look at what they offer:
- Processor: Vision 4000
- Color accuracy: 98% DCI-P3
- Refresh rate: 60 to 120 Hz
- Weight: 76 grams
Future Concepts and Untethered Advantages
Alongside the RayNeo Air 4 Pro, TCL also demonstrated the RayNeo X3 Pro Project eSIM. This innovative device includes embedded eSIM connectivity, so you won’t need to tether it to another device, making it more convenient for on-the-go use. However, it comes at a hefty price—$1,299 for the standard version.
The ability to use AR technology without being tied to another device could transform how users interact with the digital world. Plus, they look pretty sleek, which doesn’t hurt.
