The buzz is real. Viture is launching four pairs of AR glasses, not just one. We have the Luma, the Luma Pro, the business-focused Luma Ultra, and the star of the show: the Viture Beast.
I had a sneak peek at the Beast during AWE 2025, and I was blown away. Now, I can share my thoughts and some cool visuals, including an update on a notable spec change.
Launching in October for $549, you might wonder: is it worth waiting for the Beast, or should you just go for the Xreal One Pro? Let’s dive in.
A Leap in Technology
Right off the bat, the Viture Beast boasts the best screen I’ve seen on AR glasses. With a 1200p resolution and impressive color, it offers crystal-clear visuals. But here’s the twist: the field of view dropped from 60 to 58 degrees to maintain that sharpness across the lens. Will you notice the difference? Probably not. You need a more significant change to feel it.
The Beast includes built-in screen customization with 3DoF tracking, and there’s more to come with 6DoF tracking later. The range of options is fantastic, from ultrawide to vertical layouts, promising an engaging experience.
Plus, a big thumbs up for using a USB-C port. Proprietary cables can be a hassle, so it’s nice to see Viture opting for standard connections. No more scrambling for special cords!
One Major Drawback
However, there’s a hitch. The Viture Beast lacks the myopia adjustment dials that past models are known for. This decision stems from a priority on 3DoF tracking. The hardware adjustments could impact tracking accuracy, so Viture chose to focus on picture quality instead. If myopia adjustment is important to you, stick with the Luma for now.
Looking Ahead
In summary, the Viture Beast offers a big-screen experience at $100 less than the Xreal One Pros. The competition between these companies is exciting. It pushes them to innovate, and ultimately, that benefits us as consumers.
I’m eager to test these glasses on long flights and at home. It’ll be interesting to see how the wider field of view enhances the movie-watching experience or boosts productivity with an ultrawide monitor setup.
If you need myopia adjustment, this isn’t the right choice. But if you’re after top-notch picture quality, it might be worth waiting just a bit longer.
