XREAL Sets Permanent $599 Price for One Pro Smart Glasses After $50 Cut

The move counters 2026 device price hikes tied to costlier memory parts linked to AI demand.

Overview

  • XREAL confirmed a permanent $50 reduction for the One Pro, telling 9to5Google the smart glasses now list at $599 as reported by Android Authority.
  • The One Pro keeps its flagship pitch, including a virtual screen that appears about 171 inches across and 3D-ready playback with ongoing software updates.
  • The change lands in a year when many new phones launched at higher prices as storage and RAM costs rose due to demand from AI data centers.
  • Android Authority notes brands such as Samsung and Motorola raised prices across lineups, with models like the Galaxy S26 and OnePlus 15 series debuting at higher tiers.
  • For buyers considering wearable displays, a lower stable price eases entry into a niche where features like big virtual screens and on-device 3D support often carry premium pricing.
