Xreal has announced Aura pricing at $1,279, with orders expected in the coming weeks and higher configurations reaching $1,499. Early hands-on impressions suggest advances in comfort, display quality, hand tracking, and walking usability, but real-world battery life, tracking, software depth, tethered compute requirements, privacy, and shipping remain unresolved.
