rayneo x3 pro review promising ar smart glasses with one big limitation ...

For relatively lightweight AR smart glasses, the RayNeo X3 Pro pull a lot of weight, even edging over the Meta Ray-Ban Display Glasses in some aspects. The camera performance is decent, and the Android-based OS is smooth when there's not too much going on. However, the camera can't keep up in challenging lighting conditions, with visible graininess in videos when shot indoors. There's also limited control over the captures, and the battery life is around 30 minutes if the camera is in continuous use. The carrying case doesn't have a recharging feature either.
