Until now, AR glasses have suffered from blurry corners and washed-out colors. But the latest "RayNeo Air 4 Pro" overturns that conventional wisdom by adopting Sony's newest-generation 0.75-inch Micro-OLED panels.
Put them on, and a massive screen equivalent to 120 inches floats four meters in front of your eyes. The resolution adds up to 4K-equivalent across both eyes, with a refresh rate of 120Hz. What's astonishing is the sharpness (PPD 55). There's zero pixelation in the text. Movie subtitles and even the tiny cells in Excel can be read just as clearly as on a PC monitor. DCI-P3 color gamut coverage hits 99%. The quality deserves to be called not a "see-through display" but rather an "OLED TV floating in mid-air."

The biggest enemy of AR glasses has always been "ambient brightness." When the background is too bright, the image becomes transparent and hard to see. But the Air 4 Pro is equipped with an "electrochromic (electronic dimming)" function.
Just tap the button on the temple, or use the smartphone app, and the lens tint changes instantly. Set it to 0% (transparent) and you can walk around while seeing your surroundings. Set it to 100% (pitch black) and you're instantly transported into the darkness of a movie theater. No more hassle of attaching and removing physical light-blocking covers (shades). Whether you're by the window on a Shinkansen or on a beach in midsummer, this feature keeps your immersion intact.

For watching movies over long periods, comfort matters even more than image quality. They've been further slimmed down from the previous model, with the body weighing in at just around 75g. The weight balance (distribution) has been thoroughly reworked, dramatically reducing the strain on your nose.
Spring-loaded temples and 9-step adjustable nose pads ensure they fit any face shape. I actually watched a two-hour movie straight through, and my ears didn't hurt and my nose wasn't left with marks. The look has shed its bulky, cyberpunk vibe too — finished off as slightly oversized Wellington-style sunglasses that don't look out of place worn around town.

Using the dedicated "RayNeo XR" app, you can arrange multiple windows in the space in front of you. YouTube in the middle, browser on the right, Twitter (X) on the left. Up to three screens can be pinned in mid-air (3DoF tracking), and you can pan your head to look across them.
Combine it with Galaxy's DeX mode or the iPhone 17's desktop mode, and even on a cramped café table you can work in a triple-monitor environment. With a keyboard, a mouse, and these glasses, you may no longer even need to lug around a heavy laptop.

The price is about 65,000 yen. It isn't cheap, but if you consider that you can carry a 120-inch OLED TV and a triple-monitor setup in your pocket, it's actually a steal.
Lie down and project a movie onto the ceiling. Or, on an airplane, check confidential documents without anyone peeking over your shoulder. The RayNeo Air 4 Pro liberates you from the constraints of physical screen size. Now, start a life where you overlay your own personal screen onto the real world.
