I got to try Android XR glasses at Google I/O, and I'm more excited about smart display glasses than I've ever been

At Google I/O, hands-on demos of upcoming Android XR glasses from Xreal and Google showed compact smart display eyewear with sharp visuals and responsive hand gestures.

The prototypes featured lens dimming and a separate puck for battery and compute, keeping the glasses lighter and more practical to wear.

The demos suggest Android XR is shifting away from bulky headsets toward everyday glasses that could make mixed reality more accessible.
