ASUS unveiled the 'ROG XREAL R1', a new piece of gaming eyewear crafted in collaboration with the AR specialists at XREAL, on 6 January (KST) at CES 2026.

This product features the world’s first 240Hz micro-OLED technology in a wearable display, projecting a 171-inch virtual screen at a distance of 4 meters from the user. It offers a 57-degree field of view and covers 95% of the central vision area for high-fidelity visuals. With a 240Hz refresh rate and 3ms motion-to-photon latency, it provides smooth, stutter-free video. ASUS explains that this allows users to experience the immersion of a large monitor in a lightweight, glasses-style device.

The design adopts a standard spectacles look to improve comfort, and at 91g, it reduces the burden of long-term use. It features electronic tint-changing technology that automatically adjusts lens transparency to ambient light, ensuring a clear view indoors or outdoors. Users can also manually adjust brightness in three levels or utilize an intelligent transparency feature that changes based on whether they are viewing the screen.

The device is compatible with various hardware within the ROG ecosystem. The included control dock supports DisplayPort and HDMI connections, allowing users to switch between PC and consoles with a single button. It supports a plug-and-play method for the ROG Ally handheld console without requiring separate settings. Additionally, it is equipped with a spatial co-processing X1 chip, providing features to pin the virtual screen in a specific location or adjust its size.

The audio system, built on Bose’s expertise, creates an immersive soundstage. It precisely reproduces various sound effects, such as footsteps or explosions in games, enhancing spatial immersion and creating an environment where users can react intuitively to situations.

The release date, target regions, and pricing for the product have not yet been disclosed.
