About RayNeo
RayNeo spun out of TCL's XR efforts in 2022 and attacks two fronts at once: aggressively priced Air-series display glasses at the budget end, and true standalone AR with the waveguide-based X-series at the frontier.
RayNeo currently has 9 models in our database (6 currently available), pricing from $149 to $1,299, covering display glasses and advanced AR and AI smart glasses.
