3D Mode

Turn on 「3D Mode」 to enjoy a richer and more immersive large-screen experience when watching movies, photos, short videos, games, and more.

「3D Mode」 allows the glasses to display different types of content, enabling you to watch 3D movies. However, watching 3D videos usually requires SBS (Side-by-Side) format content. SBS format refers to a 3D video format in which the left-eye and right-eye images are displayed side by side. With the support of the app, after turning on 「3D Mode」, the glasses can present the left and right images separately to each eye, presenting a 3D viewing effect.

If You Do Not Have Any 3D SBS Video Resources​

We recommend updating the glasses firmware to the latest version, then selecting 「REAL 3D」 in 「3D Mode」 to experience XREAL One Series glasses converting regular 2D videos into immersive 3D effects in real time, so you no longer need to worry about finding 3D video resources.
