The hardware design requires users to connect the glasses via a wired link to a separate puck. This setup mirrors the approach used by Apple Vision Pro. The system supports immersive experiences including 180-degree and 360-degree YouTube playback. It also provides early access to Google Maps integration and demonstrates multimodal AI capabilities.
Xreal plans to launch Project Aura before the end of 2026. The company has not disclosed specific pricing for the device. Sources indicate that neither the exact cost nor a precise release date is available at this time.
This launch window positions the product within the growing Android XR ecosystem. Competitors in the mixed reality space continue to refine their hardware and software offerings. Xreal aims to capture developer interest ahead of the consumer rollout.
