Apple Vision Pro vs XREAL One Pro
Both devices below are described from their manufacturers’ own specification pages. Where a row does not apply to one of them, it says so rather than showing a dash — that is a different statement from “the maker does not publish it”.

Apple · Premium

XREAL · Mid range
Differences you can see
Pictures first, table second. Every chart is computed from the same published fields you can read below it — nothing here is an illustration.
- Apple Vision Pro
- XREAL One Pro
Resolution per eye
Panels at true pixel scale, one inside the other.
The sharpest panel here has 465% more pixels per eye than the softest — that is what you gain on small text inside a scene.
Field of view
Seen from above. The grey area is roughly the human binocular field (~200°).
- Apple Vision Pro100° horizontal
- XREAL One Pro57° (axis not stated)
One of these manufacturers publishes an angle without saying which axis it is measured on. Reviewers usually read those figures as diagonal, which would make the real horizontal field narrower than the wedge suggests — so treat the shapes as an impression, not as a ranking.
These angles are NOT measured the same way, so the wedges cannot be read as “this one is wider”. A pair of human eyes covers about 200° for reference.
Weight
On the whole catalogue’s scale, from 30 g to 830 g.
Launch price
On the whole catalogue’s scale, from $199 to $38500.
On sale, and supported
Two different questions: how long you can still buy it new, and how long the manufacturer keeps updating it. The dashed line is the end of a three-year training programme (2029).
Apple Vision Pro on sale since 2025 · no published end of support
XREAL One Pro on sale since 2025 · no published end of support
Sold and supported are not the same thing. A model can leave the shelves while its maker keeps shipping software to the units you already own — and it can stay on the shelves with no published support commitment at all.

| DisplayHow the image is produced. "No display" is a real answer in this category, not a gap. | does not apply to this class | Birdbath optics |
| PanelThe screen type. micro-OLED gives deeper blacks and higher contrast; LCD is brighter and cheaper. | micro-OLED | does not apply to this class |
| OpticsThe lenses in front of the panel. Pancake stays sharp closer to the edges than older Fresnel, which decides how much a trainee has to aim their head to read something. | Catadioptric (Apple) | does not apply to this class |
| Eyes coveredOne eye or both. Over a full shift this is a real difference in fatigue. | Both eyes | Both eyes |
| Resolution per eyePixels delivered to each eye. Higher means small text and labels stay readable. | ≈3660x3200*iFixit teardown | 1920x1080 |
| Refresh rateImages per second. Higher feels smoother and helps people prone to motion discomfort. | 90/96/100/120 Hz | 120 Hz |
| Field of viewHow much of your view the image covers. Bigger is more immersive, not automatically better for work. | ≈100° horizontal*VRcompare estimate | 57° |
| Pixel densityPixels per degree of view — the honest way to compare sharpness between a headset and a pair of glasses. Higher is sharper. Only shown where somebody published it; we never compute it ourselves. | Pixel density: not published by the manufacturer | Pixel density: not published by the manufacturer |
