There's a lot of movement in the smart glasses space, from simple tools for capturing your lifestyle to next-generation, fully immersive mixed reality experiences. When it comes to augmented reality glasses that aim to be the ultimate, private, all-in-one external display for your devices, the ASUS ROG XREAL R1 sits at the pinnacle — as it should, when it costs $800 or more. I've been using these glasses alongside the Xbox Ally X20 I reviewed, and it's not a stretch to call them the best at what they do... but I can also confidently say most people should buy something else, like the excellent (and much cheaper) XREAL One Pro.
