I Was Wrong About the Xreal Beam Pro (2026 review)

The Xreal Beam Pro isn't just another phone—it's a game-changing spatial computing device for AR/XR glasses! In this 2026 update, I explain why I returned it in 2024 but now love it after snagging the 8GB model for ~$168. From device-agnostic compatibility (Viture, Rokid, Rayneo) to PS2/GameCube emulation, Moonlight streaming from PC/handhelds, PX Play for consoles, and capturing spatial videos—it's underrated for media, gaming, and more. I share real use cases: freeing up your phone battery for YouTube/TV in glasses, hotspot for kids or friends, even connecting to a monitor as a pseudo-tablet. Pair it with Xreal Air 2 Pro or One series for 6DoF tracking! Pros: Affordable now ($199+), full Android apps, dual 50MP 3D cameras, great for emulation/streaming. Cons: 60Hz screen, no video passthrough like original Beam. Check out the ABXYLUTE S8 Controller here!
