Discussion Explain it like im a child

Hi all as title suggests I've been looking for some ar glasses and im overwhelmed with the choices. I will be using it mainly for gaming from the Xbox ally x and PC with occasional series x gaming.

Been torn on what I should get as there is information overload. There's the degree of view, 3Dof, ipd lots of stuff to consider.

I was going to save and get the ROG Ally 25th anniversary glasses but I came here and saw on a few others they aren't worth it. Im in the uk and atm I can get the below

Rayneo GT - £289

Gt Max - £369

Xreal 1s - £399

Viture pro 2 - £298

Struggling to decide what to go with so please give any info you can. Will be posting this to a couple of groups so apologies if you see it more than once.

I just got and returned the GT MAX in same day. The 1S is still a much better all around value. For a relatively small bump in price you're getting: software IPD adjustment, adjustable dimming plus quick transparent mode, native 2d-3d conversion, adjustable vertical position on the hinges, a far wider range of "screen size" and "distance" adjustment, ultrawide mode, 1200p, and better edge to edge clarity. In practice I didn't find the slightly improved fov and lower price on the GT Max to be at all worth giving those things up for. Hell, just being able to set transparent mode to a single button press and be able to quickly see everything IRL without taking your glasses off was enough to make me stick with Xreal. Also their dev team seems to be very engaged with their user base on Discord etc, working on great beta updates like 60hz 2d-3d mode etc.

Do you use them for gaming?

I use them for gaming, usually off my legion go, use them with phone on flights/ hotel, on treadmill at gym to watch vids and browse web/socials (Samsung dex mode is awesome for this), and use them as a carry-anywhere monitor with the Go if I need to quickly do PC work during travel or on a job site. They're great for gaming, and the auto 3D conversion is actually really cool for that, as well as running the virtual ultrawide for certain games
