**Bottom line: the Dream Glass Flow is the better buy for most people at $60 less, unless you need the brighter display.**

- Buy the Dream Glass Flow if you want to spend $60 less ($389 vs $449) and you want the lighter 59g fit (vs 82g).
- Buy the XREAL 1S if you need the brighter 700-nit display (vs 500 nits), you want smoother 120Hz motion (vs 60Hz), you want spatial audio, and you play on Steam Deck.
