ASUS unveils its 240Hz ROG XREAL R1 AR gaming glasses
ASUS delivers the world’s first 240Hz Micro-OLED “virtual display” with its ROG XREAL R1 AR glasses
ASUS has collaborated with XREAL to create AR gaming glasses that provide gamers with a massive 171-inch virtual screen. These are ASUS’ ROG XREAL R1 AR gaming glasses, and they target gamers on PC, consoles, and handheld devices.
With its 240Hz FHD (1920×1080) screen, these AR glasses can deliver ultra-fast gaming experiences. These glasses use Micro-OLED panels, which give gamers a virtual 171-inch display that appears to be four meters away. The glasses weigh 91 grams and use USB Type-C connectivity. It also features “sound by Bose”.
With a 57-degree FOV, these glasses are said to cover 95% of the “human focus area”. Since this isn’t a VR headset, this FOV is more than enough for gamers. After all, users only need to see the 171-inch virtual display, not anything around it.
These AR glasses can connect directly with USB Type-C display output devices or connect to other devices using the ROG Control Dock. This allows ROG Ally users to connect to these AR glasses with “Zero Setup”. PC and console users will likely need to use ASUS’ ROG Dock to connect to the glasses via HDMI. This ROG Dock features two HDMI 2.0 ports and a single DisplayPort 104 port.
ASUS has not announced pricing for its new ROG XREAL R1 glasses. However, they have confirmed that they will be released in H1 2026.
