What happened

Two weeks ago, journalists in the San Francisco Bay Area got to try two hot new wearables that weigh only around 100 grams: the just-revealed Meta VR Glasses, and the long-awaited transparent Google XR glasses built in partnership with Xreal. Xreal has just opened Aura pre-orders starting at $1,279 , $20 less than the Meta VR Glasses. Google is an Internet and software company based in Mountain View, founded in 1998.
