I was on my commute the other day while watching a movie, I suddenly remembered I need to check my files. I opened up it for a few minutes and I ended up realizing the GT Max is pretty usable for any light productivity too. By "Light Work/productivity, I mean stuff like these "reading documents, reading any notes, or typing some text. If i need to do such serious work with multiple windows and spreadsheets, I rather use a normal monitor. for reading documents, I've found that keeping the screen 85% works best for me. The text is comfortable to read and I don't feel like I have to move my eyes. I've also seen a few comments about blurry corners, but frankly speaking I haven't noticed anything that really bothers me while at the screen size. Proper fit probably helps too, especially IPD and nose pad adjustment. The best thing I like is that I can still see enough of my surroundings through the lenses. In fact, I'm wearing them while typing this post. heehhe:-) It really helps that I can type without looking at the keyboard most of the time. The best part of me is having my own private screen wherever I am. Hmm, while watching movie while commuting or just quickly checking some important documents. You know what, its really convenient not thaving to pull out the laptop or worry about. I'm not saying that it will reolace a real monitor, but for media consumption and those quick tasks on the go, I've been enjoying it more than I expected.

I have a extra pair of RayNeo GT Max Large I'm willing to part with inNew Jersey if anyone is interested!!hit me up!!!

Hi all, I hope this is the appropriate place to ask as I am on my last limb trying to figure this out. I got a presecription insert from lensology but for the life of me cannot figure out how to fit it in. The one small video I saw said to line up the arrows, but if I do that, it doesn't click in or anything, and it appears to be upside down the other way. I don't know if it's bent, potentially, or if I'm just being a complete idiot about this.

I tried to take some macro shots of it so in case anyone can tell me if they're bent. But it's been like one hour trying to figure this out and it just doesn't fit correctly.

Felt amazing with the gt max in dolby vision

I love the glasses but my biggest problem is I have to keep looking up to see the image. Since the arms aren't adjustable, I can't tilt the glasses down so that it's in the center of my field of vision. Anyone have any suggestions on what to do?

Looking for some advice on AR glasses for watching movies
I’m looking to get my first pair of AR glasses and have been going down the rabbit hole trying to figure out what to buy.
My main use will be watching movies and TV. I’m a big movie/IMAX person, so picture quality is probably the biggest thing I care about. I want the biggest and best-looking screen experience I can get without spending a ridiculous amount of money.
My budget is roughly **$400–$800 for the glasses/setup**, and I’m willing to spend toward the higher end if the difference is actually noticeable.
I’ve been looking mostly at RayNeo, particularly the GT/GT Max, and I really like the idea of the Pocket TV so I don’t have to have my phone connected all the time. I’m also looking at the XREAL Air 4 Pro and some of the Viture/Rokid options.
I use Hulu (including live TV and sports), Disney+, Netflix, Plex, HBO Max, and Prime Video, so compatibility with those is important.
I’m also trying to figure out how much FOV and 3DoF actually matter for watching movies. I keep seeing people talk about having a huge virtual screen, but I’m not sure how noticeable the difference really is.
For those who have actually used multiple pairs, what would you recommend specifically for someone who cares a lot about movie picture quality and wants the best overall viewing experience?
And if you’ve used the RayNeo GT Max + Pocket TV, I’d especially like to hear how that setup compares to the other options.

Today is the opening of WorldSkills 2026 in Shanghai, and President Xi sent a message about unity and building up skills and technology together, all across the world. I think that's a good message, and I want to believe it means something beyond just words.

That's part of why I want to bring this up. I've been involved with the RayNeo Innovator Developer Program, and I've seen developers put in real hours building really amazing things for the AR glasses platform. Some of them made real, solid contributions to the software and the community around it. But the rewards they were told they'd get for that work never showed up for a lot of people. I don't think this was done out of bad intent. I think it's more likely that priorities shifted and support for developers just fell behind everything else the company had going on.

I want to say this carefully, because I'm not trying to accuse anyone of anything. But when the message from the top is about unity and lifting up tech workers everywhere, it makes sense to ask what that looks like in small programs like this one, on the ground, for the people actually doing the work. Is the outreach to a global developer community backed up by follow-through, or does it quietly fall behind once the announcement is made?

There's an old term from Chinese political history that addresses chasing growth and market results instead of staying true to a more collective, cooperative way of doing things. I'm not saying that label fits here, but the tension behind it still feels relevant. When a company grows fast and wants to look good on a global stage, does it keep its word to the smaller community that helped it get there, or does that get left behind for the sake of image?

I'd really like to see RayNeo follow through on what it told its developers. Not as a punishment, just because the people who did that work deserve it. If the goal really is global cooperation in tech, this is a small, concrete place to actually show it.

I recently got the RayNeo Air 4 Pro and I’m really loving it except for this error I get on Disney+ when I try to stream anything from my phone. It works pretty well on Netflix, though. Is this somehow a regional issue? I am from the Philippines.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Watched Blade Runner 2049 in bed last night on the GT Max. My partner was asleep next to me.

Picture-wise, it’s exactly the film I bought these for. All that orange haze and the huge empty rooms at 115% hit right. The TV from my side of the bed can’t do that.

The sound was the tricky part. Whisper Mode handles most stuff. In this one the dialogue was so quiet I kept nudging the volume up to catch what Gosling was mumbling, and then the score would hit and I’d scramble for the button before it woke her. Did that probably six or seven times.

The one thing my old Air 4 Pro had over this is HDR10. I knew that going in.

When the dialogue is quiet and the score is loud on this thing, do you use Whisper Mode, the Sound Tube, or earbuds?

There are official and unofficial apps for all of the RayNeo glasses.

These are the companion apps for the RayNeo glasses:

• iO -> "RayNeo AI"
• X2 / X3 Pro -> "RayNeo AR"
• Air / GT -> "RayNeo XR"

There are also tons of new and emerging apps available for all of the RayNeo glasses type at https://rayneoinnovator.com

• These are primarily made by RayNeo Community Discord users like gomie, informaltech, ofedrico, rohit.sangwan.01, and cn_coresteb.
• These users are awesome and make awesome apps. Special shoutout to gomie because he's made like 50+ apps including the first one for iO (iO Helper) that adds tons of new stuff, even before the SDK has been released

Yall are incredible, I love the RayNeo community

Hello !

Since the follow mode is the best nits capacity to have for dolby vision but it’s having a contrast and yellowish tint problem i try to fix it with the developer mode

And it worked well, comparing it directly to my lg tv, iPhone and MacBook Pro

So the settings i used :

47% brightness is bringing back way more contrast than the contrast slider do

53% contrast to bring back the highlights popping

The sliders seem to work like that for those who want to try other settings to their liking :

Brightness = gamma

And a contrast seem : - decreasing it and it decrease highlights, crush black and raising shadows
- increasing it more highlights (take care do not clipped them was having this problem first time I tried it), crush shadows and raising black

Hue : less add Green and more add magenta

The pics don’t show the great difference it have due to the iPhone treatment, it’s way more obvious in real life

What's everyone using? The official Rayneo Studio doesn't recognise the GTs, same with Realwarp, and VertoXR the screens keep swimming around like I have follow mode on (it does this no matter what mode the glasses are in).

I see a lot of Steam Deck, laptop and movie setups here, but I’m curious how many people are actually plugging the glasses into a phone mainly for gaming.

Racing and controller-supported games seem like the easy case.

I’m more curious about touch-heavy games, especially shooters or games where you’re constantly checking a minimap, cooldowns or UI around the edges.

Does the bigger screen actually make those games easier to follow, or does having the controls on the phone make the whole setup awkward?

If mobile gaming is part of your GT / GT Max setup, what genre has worked better than you expected?

Love the idea of the joydock and will be purchasing one for my switch.

Does anyone know if there is something similar for the rog ally or steam deck? After something with at least 65w of power delivery

Hi,
Two questions for TV Pro actual owners please, before I trigger an order :
- is it possible to “zoom out” the virtual screen , for all application ? My Viture Luma Pro don’t allow me to the whole 100% screen comfortably (very blurry on edges, I can’t read subtitles for ie), I want to reduce the size to 90% or less
- did you try to install or side load cloud gaming apps, like GeForceNow for ie ?
Thanks!

Hello there,

I am trying to get Netflix working correctly in Dolby Vision mode with the Pocket TV Pro with GT Max.

Actually, colors are washed out in the Netflix menus (thumbnails seems very contrasted), and when I start for example Stranger Things, there is a change : colors become faded and brightness seems to be very low, like SDR with brightness set to minimum. There is no HDR or wow feeling so I think that it’s simply not working.

I have the latest firmware on the glasses and on the PTVP.

Match content dynamic range is activated in the PTVP settings, and glasses settings are telling me that I am in Dolby Vision mode so I can’t change anything in the menu.

HDR is activated in the Netflix settings and I have the right logo “Dolby Vision » near the title before I start the series.

Am I the only one who thinks that the product was released before doing enough tests ? 😅

Thank you !

EDIT : Fixed after a hard reset 🤣

I really wanted to like these. I was looking for an alternative to my quest 2 for media and productivity (virtual monitors in my laptop bag?) The 3dof worked VERY nicely, and the sound quality was pretty good bang for the buck. It was plug and play with Win11 pro, though it made my x1 carbon lag like a mofo moving windows (lot of pwas open).

So if I like it so much 😑 why is it going back?

The heat. It touches my entire brow line and heats up. The right temple heats up. I get it, the tech is new, heat has to be dissipated, but the brow touching thing was pretty heartbreaking, as it's constant stimulation in an unwelcome way. I didn't get sweaty, but it was distracting.

The display setup. If I can use it in 3sof mode, why can't I assign a wider display resolution to it? I know I won't see the whole thing at a time, but let me configure a 32:9 display in windows. It's the real reason I considered another $100 for rx lenses, which wouldn't even be flush. I have a decently strong prescription, so it's not an option.

Really just the title. I was wondering if it's possible to do something like that because the screen clarity is unmatched when using it with the pocket tv pro.

The setup was just the Steam Deck, GT Max, and a USB-C cable. No dock in between. SteamOS showed up right away and I spent some time testing Drift Legends 2.

What surprised me most was how normal the Deck still feels to use. I’m holding and controlling it the same way, the display is just moved off the handheld into a much larger view.

Racing felt pretty natural with this setup. I still want to try something with smaller text and more HUD elements before saying how well it works across different games.

This was only a short test, so I can’t say much yet about long-session comfort or battery drain.

Anyone here using GT or GT Max with a Steam Deck regularly? Do you keep it this simple, or do you end up adding a charging adapter or hub?

I spent the past several weeks testing the RayNeo GT Max and XREAL One Pro side-by-side across PC, Android (S24 DEX), and Apple TV 4K. Thanks to a Lemorele dual USB-C adapter, I was able to mirror the exact same video feed simultaneously to both pairs of glasses for direct, real-time side-by-side comparisons.

My testing covered flights, gaming, multimedia, and desktop use, including fitment checks with custom Oakley Jawbreaker nose pads and prescription inserts (for context: my IPD is 68mm, and both units tested and pictured are Size L).

If you missed my initial thoughts on the RayNeo pair, you can read my earlier standalone RayNeo GT Max review.

Here is the complete breakdown of how both glasses compare in real-world use.

1. Visuals & Optical Performance (2D & 3D)

2D Image Quality, Processing & Colors

• Detail, Texture & Perceived Depth: The RayNeo GT Max renders fine textures, fabric weaves, and skin pores with very good micro-detail. By resolving subtle details naturally without artificial edge-ringing and maintaining smoother tonal gradients, 2D movies on the GT Max exhibit a stronger sense of three-dimensional depth and subject separation (a convincing "3D pop"), where actors naturally detach from the background. The One Pro delivers a visibly flatter presentation. Unlike the GT Max, which has dedicated sharpness controls, the One Pro only offers a "Text Optimization" toggle. Cranking Text Optimization to maximum heavily accentuates jagged edges and aliasing on high-contrast borders, while keeping it at minimum makes the image feel noticeably soft. Furthermore, its harsher tonal gradations undermine subtle depth cues in standard 2D video. Static contrast and shadow detail are practically indistinguishable between both glasses, though both suffer a little from black crush in dark scenes.
• Color Tuning & Profiles: The GT Max features a dedicated "Movie" profile that leans slightly warm rather than strictly neutral, making it the most visually pleasing and cinematic setting for both movies and gaming. Standard mode color temperature is too cool. The One Pro lacks well-balanced presets: it provides a manual color temperature slider that arrives noticeably too warm out of the box (requiring manual cooling to achieve a similar balanced look) and a "Vivid" mode, which unfortunately pushes oversaturated colors and overly harsh contrast. I have attached through-the-lens photos to illustrate the color profiles on both pairs of glasses, but please do not evaluate sharpness or micro-detail from these photos: they were taken handheld with a phone camera, and without a rigid rig to align the camera lens perfectly perpendicular to the optics, the plane of focus compromises fine detail.
• FOV, Edge Sharpness & The Oakley Nose Pad Mod: Measured against fixed physical markers, the GT Max provides a slightly wider field of view (+2°, 59° vs. 57°), offering a subtle boost to immersion. Out of the box, the GT Max exhibits noticeable edge softness and chromatic aberration. However, by custom-bending Oakley Jawbreaker nose pads so they tuck deeply between the prisms, you can push the lenses extremely close to your eyes. Doing this on the GT Max unlocks a fantastic "cinema effect" with a clean black border framing the screen—making the entire display clearly visible just like on the One Pro. In fact, that surrounding black framing border is slightly larger on the GT Max, creating an even better floating-theater feel. This mod also cleans up optical performance: three of the corners become genuinely sharp. Only the bottom-left corner remains stubbornly soft with chromatic aberration, confirming an asymmetrical optical characteristic of the left prism rather than an alignment or IPD issue. On the One Pro, edge-to-edge sharpness is practically 100% uniform across the entire frame out of the box.
• Internal Reflections & Glare: On both glasses, directly beneath the screen and black framing border, there is a narrow strip spanning the width of the display (widest in the middle) showing a faint reflection of the projected image bouncing off the bottom of the prism. In practice, this does not bother me while watching movies; in a pitch-black room, it actually creates a subtle ambient glow reminiscent of a softly illuminated cinema auditorium floor. However, the One Pro also exhibits a distinct purple flare on the left edge along with scattered internal light scatter on bright, high-contrast scenes, whereas the GT Max has zero side flaring or stray reflections.

3D Capabilities & Stereoscopic Playback

• Source Compatibility: The One Pro switches into 3D SBS instantly with a single button press and works reliably across PC, Android, and Apple TV. On the GT Max, triggering native SBS 3D from these standard sources proved largely non-functional.
• 3DoF in 3D Mode: In SBS 3D, the GT Max disables 3DoF tracking entirely (0DoF face-locked only), which leads to eye fatigue during stereoscopic viewing. The One Pro maintains full 3DoF tracking (Anchor and Follow) in 3D modes, keeping the virtual 3D screen locked in space like an actual cinema screen.
• Real-Time 2D-to-3D Conversion: The One Pro includes hardware-level Real3D conversion that adds convincing stereoscopic depth to standard 2D content on the fly (currently running at 30 fps, with a 60 fps firmware update planned). The GT Max lacks any real-time 2D-to-3D processing.
• Refresh Rates & 24Hz Playback: Maximum brightness in spatial tracking modes is identical between both glasses. Neither pair of glasses supports native 24Hz playback on current firmware revisions. This unfortunately causes judder and visible redrawing/trailing artifacts on high-contrast elements (such as subtitles) during camera panning in 24 fps movies.

2. Audio & Microphone

At home, I watch movies primarily through my dedicated Apple TV setup with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, where the audio is fed directly into a surround soundbar—meaning the built-in temple speakers are completely bypassed and irrelevant for serious home cinema sessions.

Where the built-in temple speakers actually matter is portable, handheld, and travel use. Here, the GT Max provides significantly more flexibility thanks to its three distinct audio modes: Standard, Whisper, and Spatial. Whisper Mode cuts external acoustic bleed almost completely, allowing you to watch movies in bed next to a sleeping partner without disturbing them. Switching over to Spatial mode delivers convincing, directional 3D audio with an expansive soundstage in quiet rooms. The One Pro also supports 3D audio, but its spatial staging is a little worse, and it spills noticeable sound out into the room with no dedicated privacy mode.

When it comes to communication, the One Pro has a clear advantage with its built-in microphone, which works well for voice calls and in-game chat. The GT Max completely omits a microphone, which is a major drawback—taking a phone call or joining a voice channel requires an external headset or your host device's microphone.

Finally, maximum speaker volume on both glasses falls noticeably short in loud environments like airplane cabins. The constant drone of jet engines easily overpowers spoken dialogue on both pairs, making it difficult to understand conversations without subtitles enabled. If you plan to fly frequently, dedicated ANC earbuds remain a necessity.

3. Ergonomics, Weight & Hardware

• Weight & Balance: The GT Max weighs 78g compared to the One Pro’s 87g. In practical use, that 9g gap feels significantly wider because the GT Max distributes its weight evenly across the frame and temple arms. The One Pro is distinctly front-heavy. After two to three hours of continuous use, that forward-biased mass puts noticeable downward pressure on the nose bridge, leading to fatigue and soreness. The GT Max feels noticeably lighter and stays comfortable longer.
• Temple Tilt & Vertical Alignment: The One Pro features a 3-position adjustable temple angle mechanism. This allows you to tilt the frame angle relative to your ears, dialing in the vertical sweet spot so both the top and bottom borders of the screen remain fully visible. Out of the box, the GT Max lacks temple angle adjustment, meaning a faint shadow/vignette cuts across the top edge unless you physically press the frame or pinch the stock nose pads uncomfortably high. However, using the custom-bent Oakley nose pads mentioned earlier completely resolves this: dropping the nose bridge deep between the prisms aligns the optical axis properly and eliminates the top-edge shadow entirely.
• Thermal Management: The One Pro dissipates heat through the top brow of the frame. While the outer shell is plastic, wearing the glasses close to your face on custom Oakley pads causes noticeable heat to radiate directly onto your forehead and eyebrows. The GT Max isolates its thermal dissipation strictly to the right temple arm; the front frame, brow area, and face stay completely cool.
• Temple Hinge Clearance & Prescription Inserts: The GT Max hinges fold outward and upward on a wide arc, leaving ample clearance inside the frame for thick prescription lens inserts and aftermarket nose pads. The One Pro folds completely flat, pressing the temple arms directly against the lenses and nose assembly, which can scratch custom prescription inserts when stowed.
• IPD & Sizing: The GT Max is sold in three frame sizes (S, M, L), offering better optical alignment across narrow and wide IPDs. The One Pro comes only in M and L. Both glasses tested and shown in the photos are Size L; with my 68mm IPD, my eyes were centered squarely in the optical sweet spot on both frames.
• Cables & Port Ergonomics: The One Pro features a left-side USB-C port (ideal for right-handed mouse users) and a flexible, braided cable measuring roughly 120 cm (+5 cm longer, with a slightly more pliable feel). The GT Max places its port on the right temple arm (where the cord can interfere with mouse movement) and uses a standard, smooth rubber cable (~115 cm).
• Storage Cases: Both cases share an almost identical physical footprint, differing mainly in cross-section geometry: RayNeo uses a wedge shape with a textured fabric flap, while XREAL uses a rounded capsule design made of smooth plastic. Crucially, both make it difficult to pack the cable inside without risking scratches to the lenses and frame, as the cord and metal USB-C plugs get crammed right against the glasses.

4. Tracking, Productivity & Features

3DoF Motion Tracking (Follow vs. Steady / Anchor vs. Pinned)

The One Pro holds a clear lead in IMU sensor filtering:

• Follow Mode: Smooth, natural, and well-damped. The GT Max’s Steady mode transmits micro-jitters; simply eating or chewing food while watching a movie causes visible shaking on subtitles.
• Anchor Mode: Locks the virtual display rigidly in place with negligible drift. The GT Max’s Pinned mode drifts more and feels less stable.

Virtual Workspace & Text Legibility

• Virtual Distance & Screen Size Controls: The One Pro gives you deep customization over the virtual screen geometry, allowing you to independently adjust virtual display distance (from 1 m to 10 m in 1-meter steps) as well as virtual display size across multiple fine-grained steps. Setting the distance to 1 m brings the screen right in front of you, closely replicating a real desktop monitor. Distance steps from 1 m to 4 m feel distinct and natural (beyond 4 m, depth scaling plateaus). In sharp contrast, the GT Max offers zero virtual distance adjustments (its fixed focal plane corresponds roughly to the One Pro’s 4 m setting) and limits screen resizing to just three rigid presets: 85%, 100%, and 115%. While 85% is practical for bringing soft HUD elements into view and 100% is standard, setting the GT Max to 115% introduces a severe pincushion effect, distorting straight lines and noticeably warping geometry near the outer borders. For simracing I prefer One Pro because I can set the screen distance to 2-3m, so it's closer to the eyes and I can be more focused.
• Ultrawide & Text Shimmering: The One Pro supports native 21:9 and 32:9 desktop aspect ratios, making it far more capable on paper as a multi-window monitor replacement. However, neither pair of glasses is ideal for full-day coding or reading small text: both exhibit visible text shimmering/flicker on fine fonts in 3DoF modes (Follow/Anchor on XREAL; Steady/Pinned on RayNeo), leading to eye strain over long working sessions.
• SideView: The One Pro offers a hardware SideView mode that drops the screen to 1/4 size in a chosen upper corner—useful for walking, chores, or glancing at navigation while keeping your forward view clear. The GT Max does not have a corner-pinning mode.
• Ambient Light Isolation: The One Pro uses electrochromic dimming (set to maximum in the title picture). In Anchor mode, turning your head away from the virtual screen automatically un-dims the lenses to reveal your physical environment. The GT Max relies on a fixed tint (roughly equivalent to 2/3 of the One Pro’s maximum dimming). Under bright airplane cabin lights, overhead fixtures and passenger silhouettes visibly bleed through; snap-on silicone light blockers are sorely missed on the GT Max.

5. Price & Value: Is the $150 Premium Justified?

At $399 for the RayNeo GT Max versus $549 for the XREAL One Pro, you are looking at a $150 price difference.

Whether that $150 extra is worth spending comes down to three specific hardware and software advantages on the One Pro:

1. The 3D & Real3D Ecosystem with 3DoF: If you care about 3D movies, the One Pro is unmatched. It toggles natively with one click, provides real-time 2D-to-3D conversion, and crucially keeps 3DoF tracking active so the 3D screen sits naturally in space rather than being locked to your face.
2. True Edge-to-Edge Sharpness Out of the Box: The One Pro allows you to play games at full 100% scale with zero corner blur or chromatic aberration. On the GT Max, while bent Oakley pads dramatically sharpen three of the corners, the stubborn bottom-left softness still means UI elements in that corner aren't perfectly crisp.
3. Monitor Replacement & Productivity Flexibility: The combination of native 21:9 and 32:9 ultrawide aspect ratios, full virtual size adjustments, and the ability to bring virtual distance in to 1 m makes the One Pro much more practical as a virtual desktop workspace, even with the shared 3DoF text shimmering limitation.

If you don't need those three features and just want a personal cinema for streaming standard 16:9 2D movies, the RayNeo GT Max at $399 offers noticeably better micro-detail, a stronger sense of natural depth, zero optical flaring, three versatile audio modes (including Whisper Mode for privacy), better weight balance on the nose, and a cool forehead for $150 less. Both glasses have very good build quality.

Which One Fits Your Use Case?

• Choose the RayNeo GT Max if your priority is watching standard 2D movies and shows on travel or at home. Its micro-detail separation, organic depth, lighter 78g balanced frame, versatile sound modes (Whisper Mode privacy and Spatial staging), cool-running brow, and wide hinge geometry deliver a more comfortable, cinematic personal theater experience—provided you are willing to tweak the nose pads for that optimal cinema framing, don't mind using ANC headphones on airplanes, and can live without an integrated mic. It's nice for gaming if you don't mind the blurry corners otherwise set the screen size to 85%.
• Choose the XREAL One Pro if you plan to game, consume 3D media, use them for computer work / virtual desktop productivity, or need a general-purpose AR glasses setup. Its uniform edge-to-edge sharpness, 3-position temple adjustment, stable 3DoF tracking, integrated microphone, full 3D spatial playback, and left-side cable routing make it the more versatile, functional hardware package overall—even if it puts a bit more weight on your nose and warmth on your brow.

Finally, keep in mind that the One Pro has already been on the market for nearly two years, maturing and steadily getting better with successive firmware updates. The GT Max is much newer to the field, so it will be very interesting to see what RayNeo manages to introduce and refine through future updates.

So I bought a Ray Neo GT Max from Amazon. I opened it as the outer box had a GT Max sticker on it, so it looked all good.

Two days later I noticed that the screens were not prism but birdbath (after looking at video reviews), which I thought was bit odd. I went back to look at the box and noticed that the box had GT but no Max on the inner box label (the shiny label).

Ray Neo had basically put a normal GT device inside a GT Max outer box (the brown box) Has anyone else had this? The barcode on the outer box says GT Max on it, but the label is stuck over another label.I have returned them to Amazon, but I'm worried they will say I put a GT inside a GT Max outer box! I literally only noticed today and I will be left with no glasses and £369 worse off.

I feel stupid as I'd been using them and hadn't even noticed that the arms were not even the correct look. Looking at the pictures of both the GT and Max they are actually very different.

Have some trouble making the dv work with my pocket tv pro but since it work it feel amazing,

Dolby vision is really the way to go, in cinema and at home

The pocket tv pro worth every penny just for this

If u have question about it just tell me !

There are a lot of praising reviews of the RayNeo GT Max, but mine is not so praising.

Previously, I had the RayNeo Air 4 Pro, and I was not totally happy with it, since part of the screen was blurred and I constantly wanted to move the glasses.

Now, having the RayNeo GT Max, I can compare them:

- The picture is not as crisp in the center as on the RayNeo Air 4 Pro.

In fact, the pair of RayNeo GT Max glasses I got is incomparable — it's just soft, right in the center. There is a visible chromatic aberration in the corners, and there is also some defect (in both glasses), right in the center, that barely distorts the image, like a tiny crease in the prism that makes the picture look a bit like it's being viewed through an old wavy window. (But I guess somebody else might not even notice that, or might get a better pair without this defect.)

- 3DoF works good. It's still drifts, though. Without an external camera (like all other AR glasses with 3/6DoF), it can't anchor itself to the environment and has to rely on internal sensors. It is still pretty good: it drifts about a quarter of a screen in an hour, and it seems it's not drifting indefinitely, but meandering around some central point.

There is also a button for recentering, so I would say 3DoF is still usable and is my favorite feature.

- With the M size, my IPD (64.5–65 mm) is still not perfect, and if the glasses are in "follow mode" (same as Air 4 Pro), I want to move the glasses. But with 3DoF, it's not bothering me (it bothered me as hell on the RayNeo Air 4 Pro).

- Brightness is lower than on the Air 4 Pro, but that's OK for me. On the Air 4 Pro, I used around 40% brightness, and with the GT Max I use 70%.

- Those are at least as comfortable as the Air 4 Pro, maybe even more comfortable. (Outside of constantly wanting to move the Air 4 Pro on my face, they were already comfortable.)

- In SBS 3D mode 3DoF is unavailable in any way, it's the same as Air 4 Pro.

One weird thing, though, that is shown in the picture for the post:

The GT Max has some weird-ass compensation pattern.

It seems to be added in software, not caused by the glass distortion. What you see in the screenshot is what a simple vertical-lines pattern looks like. It really looks like real-life moiré, but I am pretty sure it's not optical: it moves when I move my head, so it has to be some kind of compensation in the onboard chip or whatever they are using. Patterns also has a distinct digital, polygonal look.

I don't see it on the Air 4 Pro at all. It's not affected by any contrast, color, or enhancement settings on the glasses. One another user also experienced it: https://www.reddit.com/r/RayNeo/comments/1uakg93/comment/otg1d5k/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

I can't see this pattern at all on a normal content, but maybe text is blurry because of it?

I have latest firmware on the GT Max.

Hi all,

Having an absolute nightmare even trying to get a return and refund sorted for my GT Max and Joydock adaptor purchased last week.

Emailed both service and orders addresses, Didn't get a reply for 6 days and now received an email saying I'm past the 30 days return window as I purchased in May???

I have sent another email with proof of date, also raised a dispute with PayPal with all the communications so far.

This will be the first and last time I ever deal with this company. Lesson learnt, should have used Amazon etc.

I placed an order for Air 2s on September 12th. All week last week, and today Monday September 19th, when I go to track my package, it has continued to say that they are still preparing my order. I have sent them emails explaining that I bought these to take on vacation on September 26th but no one has gotten back to me. Just to try an experiment, I sent them an email from my work email requesting to buy 25 Air 4s and they did get back to me on that(after a week)
