XReal and ASUS Republic of Gamers announced this morning that pre-orders are open for the ROG XREAL R1, a pair of augmented reality smart glasses designed for high-frame-rate gaming paired with a ROG control dock. First shown at CES 2026, the R1s are a wearable monitor that projects a virtual 171-inch monitor with a 0.01ms response time and 240Hz refresh rate—the fastest available in AR glasses. XReal R1s are bundled with the ROG Control Dock, and are selling for $849 at Best Buy, with a release on the XReal store to follow on May 17.
The R1 is built on the architecture of XReal One glasses (see my full XReal One review here) and is powered by the same X1 chip for three degrees of freedom (3DoF) tracking. That means you can pin your gaming display anywhere in augmented reality and it won’t move when you turn your head.
The ROG Control Dock lets you connect these smart glasses to consoles (Xbox, PS5) and PCs with the dock’s HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.4 inputs, but they are being positioned as the ultimate companion for the ROG Ally handheld gaming PC. With these glasses, the Ally doesn’t need a separate monitor to deliver a high-end PC gaming experience. The R1 and ROG Ally together are aimed at delivering a high-end PC gaming experience that’s also fully portable and viewable in high definition through a pair of sunglasses.
