XREAL xbx a01 Plus AR Glasses drop to $254 in first discount since launch

Amazon has dropped the XREAL xbx a01 Plus AR Glasses to $254 for Prime Day, down from the $299 retail price. That saves you $45, which is 15% off the recommended retail price, and it is the lowest price we have seen this year.

This is also the first price drop since launch, which gives the deal a bit more weight if you have been waiting for a better entry point. The XREAL xbx a01 Plus is a budget-focused pair of AR glasses built around one main idea: giving you a large virtual screen without the higher-end extras found on pricier XREAL models.

The glasses weigh about 62g, so they are very light, and the design is closer to regular sunglasses than the bulkier XR headsets many people picture. The display is also very bright at roughly 1,600 nits, which helps with that theater-style virtual screen effect. XREAL positions this as a strong pick for portable gaming, travel, and video watching, especially with USB-C devices like handheld PCs and phones.

What makes this deal stand out is that the xbx a01+ focuses on the core private-display experience at a lower price. For anyone who wants entry-level AR glasses for gaming on the go or watching content on a bigger virtual screen, this Prime Day offer makes the value look even better.
