Man its a pretty genius design, looks quite small too for 5000mAh battery. Great review Ben! Btw I prefer Android 12 than the new version because in my area the Google TV doesnt get updated. I cant have my TH-cam recommendation that usually is at the top of my Android 12 TV UI!
Wow, I never heard of the AR GLASSES OR the ROKID HUB STATION? This Is Pretty Cool 😎. Definitely look into this...Thanks for another Awesome Tech Video
As a person that got the xreal air 2 pro and liked them and didn't like the fov I got the rokid max kit and I feel it's way better in my opinion I did like the xreal positional tracked thing of the xreal and the shutter feature and the look of the xreal but that rokid fov and diopter feature and Android TV won for me 100% better.
I'd def be down to get this for my x/n real airs if supported. More convenient than using up my phone battery life. And when I go to hotels or whatever I don't need to bring my whole tablet to watch content. I can just bring this and plug it into the tv and watch whatever I want. And the Bluetooth can let me hook up a controller for Xbox game pass hopefully
The rokid station doest provide 3dof like the nreal beams right? There still isn't the perfect accessory yet. Atleast until the beam gets apps on board.
Such a cool accessory to the Rokid! 👌So versatile! This will totally make your Rokid a better travel companion. Truly a great gadget Ben. Thank you for the great review ✌👍🙂
I'm assuming this works with other glasses like the Xreal? My X-Beam is on its way right now. I wish they didn't go with micro HDMI and just had another USB-C plug. I might get this as well but we'll see.
I would love to know if this thing has body anchor mode like the xreal beam. If the screen just moves with your head I am out. For $530 I could get the meta quest 3 when it comes out.
I also have the Xreal+Beam on the way, but this rokid station looks like it’s better than the beam. I may get return my beam and go with the rokid station and the Xreal glasses.
@@MrMittens01 yeah I'm thinking it would. I just got my Beam and it's pretty awesome. Xreal did say they will allow you to put your own apps on there so hopefully that happens sooner then later. If so then we really don't need the Rokid Station. I do wish the Beam had Chromecast too, that would've been nice. I'm looking forward to what the Beam could actually do in the future. In the meantime I'm just glad I could pay my Switch now without a dock. I also got a Rokid hub but it only works on phones and stuff, not so much on anything else. It works on my Ally but it doesn't charge it fast enough. I'm thinking it's the Rokid Hub which probably can't passthrough 65W. I don't think it could even do 30W. Probably more like 18W or so. I wish there was a legit USB-C hub with USB-C DP out that could handle 100W but I dont think there is a such a thing yet.
Personal advice, do not order pre-order. I ordered my rokid max during pre-order and got it later than those who didn't pre-order. Just wait till pre-order is over. Not worth the heartache to save $10
Welcome to Thailand Don't forget to eat the cheapest and best Thai food in the world at the food court at Terminal 21, get off at the Asok BTS station.
Hello! It all depends on what you need. The XREAL Beam offers a 3Dof virtual screen, wired and wireless connectivity, which provides you a good experience on gaming. However, please note that DRM-protected content cannot be accessed through the wireless connection.
Hi, hello from Bangkok here. thank you so much for the video. There is no official dealer here so it is very difficult for me to confirm it, could you please confirm this for me? Can you install PS5/ XBOX remote play app (such as PS Play and XBOX Play on Rokid station? and can you connect the PS5 & XBOX controller to Rokid Station? Thank you so much!
does the rokid Station also works for all other are glasses? Or only rokid? Screencasting Sounds good for my Wireless inmo Air glasses, i dont Like the cables around and want to use IT for discord and discord activities games
@@bradbindson9922 should work the first version of the rokid station was often pictured with a rokid air and its just brings the picture to the ar glass, so should work with all at glasses,monitors with usb c to hdmi cable, your ar glass rokid air also just serves as monitor for the android tv it seems, same with steamdeck and others.
@@Bunsoko88 you will soon be able to install any apps you want on the Beam. It not be a fully polish experience like an Android TV device but it will be more like a phone one instead.
The fact that the Rokid Station do not have SD card slot make it a deal breaker. If I have a 24hr+ international flight, the Station is useless. I'm not going to pay for air plane wifi to access streaming service. Wish they think this through when they design the device.
Hey I love your channel. Can you do the Inmo air 2 again with apps ainstalled and emulation? Also I got the Viture Glasses with the neckband seems to have a much better experience than this.
Does the rokid station support usb c hubs? For example, I have a usb c hub with a 3.5 mm headphone jack that I wanna use to connect my wired headphones to the rokid station. The Ikko ITX-01 Docking Station is a usb c hub/dongle with a built in hifi dac with 2 usb c ports, 3 usb a version 3.2, 3.5 mm headphone and 4.4 mm balance audio, 2 memory card slots, and 4k 60 hz full size hdmi port. I'm looking for a pair of smart glasses that support these features by plugging the smart glasses to a power bank to the usb c hub than plug the usb c hub to my razer blade 15 gaming laptop with it's 4k 144 hz display and 3080 ti gpu while gaming in 4k and plug my xbox controller to the usb c hub from one of the usb a ports. When I'm traveling I can use them usb c hub to my sony xperia 1 iv android phone and enjoy the 4k 120 oled display to the smart glasses while being connected to the rokid station or rokid max.
These AR glasses are cool but suck for people who need perscription glasses cant wear 2 glasses at once especially cause ill be blind without them i have 50/70 vision im 28
Why do these glasses look so ugly though?! No matter how high-tech these gadgets are they need to put in some work into the design of the glasses. They are so goofy right now and will struggle to go mainstream until they improve the appeal design wise.
That's why you have the XREAL Air which I have and I looks like normal glasses in public. As much as I like the Rokid Max I'm just gonna wait for XREAL to come out with their next set and hopefully it will do true 120Hz full time. Right now they have a beta for 70Hz I think. The update just got pushed recently but it's not full time tho. In the meantime I'm enjoying my XREAL Air with my Beam!
The controller is actually a certified google tv device and you can plug it into any pair of glasses with a usb-c connection and also connect to other monitors and devices with the proper adapters, if you wish to not go the plug and play direction.

It supports. I used it with the nreal air it works
Is there a watermark on the screen when connected to the Xreal air glasses?
just a question, whit a adapter HDMI to USB c and chrome cast tv will you get it working a test maby great videos always take care always
Can i control the screen size and distance by the station??
yes, in screen setting
Is it blurry on the edges ? 😅
How do I pair my remote I forgot it's been a long while I had to reset it
How do i know if my hp laptop and moto smart phone can be mirrored?Thankyou!
I wonder if this is compatible with nreal air?
Great review as ever 👏😎
Is it compatible with Samsung note 8 ?

Although I’m also curious about whether the rokid station has body anchoring or not, because that is what sold me on the beam.
It does work with XReal and you can pair this device with the beam and have 3DoF

Does Netlix work on Rokid station?
What about folks with prescription glasses?
The rokid max has diopters to adjust although they don't make anything beyond the glasses visible
Do you now live in bangcock or in Hong Kong ?
When they hit $250 for the package, I'm in.
Big negative Netflix not yet able to play on it they say they working on it. Since it's android TV most likely you can download APK files movies
Personal advice, do not order pre-order. I ordered my rokid max during pre-order and got it later than those who didn't pre-order. Just wait till pre-order is over. Not worth the heartache to save $10

1st rokid station display huge banner "only for use with rokid devices". Will second generation have same limitation?
It worked with xReal air. I don't think it's only for Rokid Max.
No
will the station work with XReal specs?
Wondering this myself. I wonder if the XREAL Beam will eventually get this functionality
Yes
@@Bunsoko88 you will soon be able to install any apps you want on the Beam. It not be a fully polish experience like an Android TV device but it will be more like a phone one instead.
@@volcalstone that'd be great! Don't get me wrong, I love my Beam lol has XREAL given a timeframe of when these future enhanced are coming?

its full hd, not 4k device. in this format 1,5 hour video take 2-5gb. you have 24gb free onboard. Its enought...
Hey I love your channel. Can you do the Inmo air 2 again with apps ainstalled and emulation? Also I got the Viture Glasses with the neckband seems to have a much better experience than this.
Do you have access to the play store? For games.
Yes
nice, mine is on the way! Can't really use quest 3 in public.@@bensgadgetreviews
never watch TV stuff when I travel 😅
Nreal is a bit more polished in my opinion.
This device works with Xreal.

Juan bagnell Said when he tried it and Android tV did not respond well to accessories.
Can i download any VPN app on the Rokid Station?
Yes
@@bensgadgetreviews Thanx...
how do you enable privacy mode
Did Ben hold or double tap the button on the arm?
Hi Ben, I came for the goggles
4:27 🤔💀
amazing
These AR glasses are cool but suck for people who need perscription glasses cant wear 2 glasses at once especially cause ill be blind without them i have 50/70 vision im 28
it's have inside optics from 0 to -6 dioptries for each eye.
I have to say, the price is very affordable. Apple would have charged 3x.....lol
Not Netflix certified though...

Xreal is better
Just be warned that Rokid after sales service is terrible
I don't like it. Its the ugliest glasses on the market. The controller is a gimmick.
