Hybrid Beasts

XR glasses like the Viture Beast have been around for a few years now, but I always saw them as kind of a gimmick. Back when the original Legion Go handheld came out, I tried Lenovo’s first try at the Legion Glasses, and while they were definitely neat, they were fiddly and just ended up giving me a headache. But a lot has changed in the last few years. The Viture Beast XR glasses deliver the feeling of a gaming headset, but for your eyes. The 1200p combined display looks crisp, and the speakers embedded in the stems, or temples, are good enough that I don’t feel the need to dig out headphones
