<p class="has-text-align-none wp-block-paragraph">Both pairs benefit from Bose-tuned built-in speakers and sport impressive low-end performance, which is great for movies and games. They have the premium build quality you’d expect from a pair of glasses that cost hundreds of dollars and are well-balanced and relatively lightweight to prevent ear strain. These Xreal glasses can connect directly to devices via USB-C, including phones, tablets, and handhelds like the Steam Deck. However, they cannot connect to a Nintendo Switch or Switch 2.</p>
<p class="has-text-align-none wp-block-paragraph">Between the two headsets, the One Pro’s screen does a better job of minimizing reflections, has better black levels in bright settings, and is overall crisper than the 1S, but the feature set is largely the same.</p>
