✅ WHAT I TESTED
✔️ ROG Ally X: worked great
✔️ Steam Deck: worked great
✔️ AYN Thor: worked (single screen only)
✔️ iPhone & iPad: worked
🔌 Nintendo Switch 2: no direct connection, works with a separately sold adapter
❌ Switch 1, Steam Machine, PlayStation: didn't work in my testing

🔍 WHAT STOOD OUT
• Huge virtual screen, from 68" up to 556" (per XREAL's official specs)
• 3D Mode that converts flat games into 3D
• Anchored and Follow screen modes, so you can game laying down or even on the ceiling
• Clear spatial audio, with sound by Bose
• Interchangeable nose pads to dial in your fit (comfort varies from person to person)
• Low-key form factor that doesn't look weird in public
• Great for travel: planes, trains and anywhere you want a big screen
