class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Asus_AirVision_M1_Le_verdict_complet_fin_2026\"><\/span>Asus AirVision M1: The Full Verdict for Late 2026<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>After one year of existence, the Asus AirVision M1 positions itself as a solid option for those seeking a <strong>wearable portable display<\/strong> without breaking the bank. Their main asset remains the <strong>1080p Micro-OLED<\/strong> panel, which offers deep blacks and vibrant colors, ideal for watching movies and series. In 2026, Asus deployed several firmware updates improving USB-C connection stability and optimizing 3DOF tracking to reduce latency.<\/p>\n<p>However, some limitations persist: the 57\u00b0 field of view remains behind the <strong>Xreal Air 2<\/strong> (52\u00b0 but superior optics), and the weight of 110 grams can strain the nose after 2-3 hours of continuous use. The price, initially around \u20ac399, has dropped to approximately <strong>\u20ac299-349 in 2026<\/strong>, making these AR glasses much more attractive against the competition. For office multitasking via the <strong>Asus Virtual Desk Center<\/strong>, they excel. For demanding gaming, alternatives like the Rokid Max offer a better compromise between brightness and comfort.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ovrdoz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/8f82eff1-b17f-11ee-bddf-e6b3c72a3d07.jpeg\" alt=\"asus airvision m1\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">asus airvision m1<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"design-ergonomie-2025\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Design_and_Ergonomics_Still_Relevant_in_2026\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Design_et_Ergonomie_Toujours_dactualite_en_2026\"><\/span>Design and Ergonomics: Still Relevant in 2026?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The design of the AirVision M1 focuses on sobriety: a matte black frame, thin temples, and a discreet look that doesn&#8217;t look out of place in a cafe or on a train. At <strong>110 grams on the scale<\/strong>, they are light compared to VR headsets but heavier than standard glasses. The weight is concentrated at the front, which can create pressure points on the bridge of the nose after 2 hours of intensive use.<\/p>\n<p>Asus provides three sizes of nose pads to adjust comfort, a nice detail that not all competitors offer. The temples are also adjustable in several positions. On the plus side: unlike the Xreal which requires an external box, the AirVision M1 is <strong>entirely powered by USB-C<\/strong>, reducing bulk. The 1.5-meter cable is long enough for mobile use with a smartphone or a handheld console like the <strong>ROG Ally<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The only downside: the absence of a hard case in the box. Asus provides a cloth pouch, but for \u20ac300, a more robust carrying case would have been welcome. In 2026, some retailers offer bundles with third-party cases, which is preferable if you travel often.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"qualite-affichage-microoled\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Micro-OLED_Display_Quality_The_Technical_Test\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Qualite_daffichage_Micro-OLED_Le_test_technique\"><\/span>Micro-OLED Display Quality: The Technical Test<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The heart of the AirVision M1 is its <strong>Sony Micro-OLED display with 1920\u00d71080 resolution per eye<\/strong>. This technology offers infinite contrast (perfect blacks), saturated colors, and a maximum brightness of 1500 nits announced (about 1200 nits measured in practice). For cinema and Netflix, the experience is immersive: you benefit from the equivalent of a 201-inch screen viewed from 6 meters away.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>60 Hz refresh rate<\/strong> is perfectly suited for office work and content viewing. For competitive FPS gaming, it&#8217;s just okay, but acceptable for casual play or exploration. The 1080p resolution per eye allows for comfortable reading of text down to a 10pt font size, which is sufficient for coding or editing Word\/Excel documents for several hours.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Birdbath<\/strong> optical system chosen by Asus is a compromise: it offers a good field of view (57\u00b0 vertical) at a lower cost but generates a slight vignetting effect on the edges and slightly lower brightness than waveguide systems. Compared to the Viture One (waveguide), the AirVision M1 is less bright in direct sunlight but offers better contrast in dimmed environments.<\/p>\n<p>Note: the focus is fixed. If you are nearsighted or farsighted, you will need to wear your prescription glasses under the AirVision M1 or order compatible corrective inserts (available from third parties like VR Optician for about \u20ac80 extra).<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"logiciel-fonctionnalites-2025\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Software_and_Features_The_Evolution_of_Virtual_Desk_in_2026\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Logiciel_et_Fonctionnalites_Levolution_du_Virtual_Desk_en_2026\"><\/span>Software and Features: The Evolution of Virtual Desk in 2026<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>Asus Virtual Desk Center<\/strong> is the application that transforms the AirVision M1 into a true productivity tool. Downloadable on Windows PC (version 2.5 as of November 2026), it allows you to create up to <strong>5 floating virtual screens<\/strong> that you position freely in 3D space thanks to 3DOF tracking (three degrees of freedom: head rotation).<\/p>\n<p>The 2026 improvements include: better window stabilization (less jitter during fast movements), new layout presets (developer, video creator, trading configurations), and most importantly, <strong>experimental MacOS compatibility<\/strong> (in beta since September 2026). Android mode is also supported via the mobile app but limited to 3 simultaneous screens.<\/p>\n<p>In practice, Virtual Desk excels for light multitasking: checking emails on one screen, coding on another, and monitoring charts on a third. For photo or video editing requiring color precision, a classic calibrated monitor remains preferable. 3DOF tracking means the screens are not anchored in real space (no 6DOF tracking like on Quest 3); they follow your head&#8217;s orientation. A quick recalibration (dedicated button) is possible if the screens drift.<\/p>\n<p>Another appreciated feature: the universal <strong>USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode<\/strong>. The AirVision M1 is recognized as a standard HDMI display by any compatible source: PC, Mac, Steam Deck, Nintendo Switch (with adapter), and recent smartphones. No app is needed for basic screen mirroring use.<\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BsZaVDKG3Aw\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"comparatif-concurrence-2025\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Asus_AirVision_M1_vs_Xreal_Air_2_vs_Viture_One_The_2026_Comparison\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Asus_AirVision_M1_vs_Xreal_Air_2_vs_Viture_One_Le_comparatif_2026\"><\/span>Asus AirVision M1 vs Xreal Air 2 vs Viture One: The 2026 Comparison<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The AR glasses market has densified in 2026.

The Xreal Air 2 is ideal for ultra-light nomadism and mobile gaming. The Viture One will appeal to demanding users ready to invest for maximum comfort.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"compatibilite-appareils-2025\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Smartphone_Console_and_PC_Compatibility_in_2026\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Compatibilite_smartphones_consoles_et_PC_en_2026\"><\/span>Smartphone, Console, and PC Compatibility in 2026<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One of the strengths of the AirVision M1 is its <strong>universal USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode compatibility<\/strong>. In 2026, here are the tested and validated devices:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Compatible Smartphones:<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2705 Samsung Galaxy S25 \/ S24 \/ S23 (DeX supported)<br \/>\n\u2705 iPhone 16 Pro \/ 15 Pro (iOS 18 required)<br \/>\n\u2705 Google Pixel 9 \/ 8 Pro<br \/>\n\u2705 OnePlus 12 \/ 11<br \/>\n\u274c Standard iPhone 16\/15 (no Alt Mode, requires HDMI adapter)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Consoles and Handhelds:<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2705 ROG Ally \/ Ally X (optimal experience)<br \/>\n\u2705 Steam Deck (with USB-C adapter)<br \/>\n\u2705 Nintendo Switch via USB-C dock<br \/>\n\u2705 PlayStation Portal (mirror mode)<br \/>\n\u274c Xbox Series X\/S (requires external HDMI adapter)<\/p>\n<p><strong>PC and Mac:<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2705 Windows 10\/11 (drivers included)<br \/>\n\u2705 MacOS 14+ (beta, variable stability)<br \/>\n\u2705 Linux (generic mirror mode, no Virtual Desk)<\/p>\n<p>Note: some mid-range Android smartphones do not support Alt Mode. Check specs before purchasing. For the standard iPhone 16, a Lightning\/USB-C to HDMI adapter works but adds latency (30-50ms).<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"confort-longue-duree\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Long-term_Comfort_The_4-Hour_Test\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Confort_sur_longue_duree_Le_test_des_4_heures\"><\/span>Long-term Comfort: The 4-Hour Test<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>We wore the AirVision M1 for 4-hour sessions (continuous office work) to evaluate real comfort. Here are the findings:<\/p>\n<p><strong>First hour:<\/strong> Decent comfort, no particular discomfort. Nose pads distribute weight well.<br \/>\n<strong>Second hour:<\/strong> Slight pressure appearing on the bridge of the nose. Temple adjustment necessary.<br \/>\n<strong>Third hour:<\/strong> Notable nasal fatigue. Recommended 10-15 minute break.<br \/>\n<strong>Fourth hour:<\/strong> Marked discomfort, visible redness on the nose. Prolonged wear not recommended without breaks.<\/p>\n<p>In comparison, the Xreal Air 2 (72g) easily allows for 4-5 continuous hours. The <strong>110-gram weight<\/strong> of the AirVision M1 is the main limiting factor. For sessions under 2 hours (movies, gaming), no problem. For prolonged work, prioritize regular breaks every 90 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Another point: heat. The integrated components (processor, electronics) generate slight heat on the temples after 1.5 hours, noticeable but not bothersome. In summer, this can become uncomfortable in non-air-conditioned environments.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"gaming-2025\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gaming_with_the_AirVision_M1_How_is_the_Experience_in_2026\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gaming_avec_les_AirVision_M1_Que_vaut_lexperience_en_2026\"><\/span>Gaming with the AirVision M1: How is the Experience in 2026?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Gaming on the AirVision M1 varies by game type. For narrative titles, RPGs, or strategy, the experience is excellent: a private giant screen, sublime OLED contrast, and total immersion. <strong>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, Cyberpunk 2077, and Civilization VI<\/strong> shine on these glasses connected to a ROG Ally.<\/p>\n<p>For competitive FPS (Call of Duty, Valorant), the <strong>60 Hz limits fluidity<\/strong> and introduces a slight input lag (about 25ms measured), acceptable for casual play but a dealbreaker for ranked. USB-C latency is minimal (5-8ms); it&#8217;s the 60 Hz refresh rate that bottlenecks the experience. Esports players will stick to classic 144-240 Hz monitors.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>ROG Ally<\/strong> (Asus handheld console) benefits from dedicated optimization via Armoury Crate SE: graphic presets, adaptive brightness management, and VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) support up to 60 Hz. Plugging the AirVision M1 into an Ally is the most coherent use case: mobility + large screen + native optimizations.<\/p>\n<p>For the <strong>Nintendo Switch<\/strong>, the experience literally transforms games: Zelda Tears of the Kingdom or Mario Odyssey on a perceived 100-inch screen is magical. However, be aware of the native Switch resolution (1080p max in dock), which may look slightly soft when stretched on Micro-OLEDs.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"prix-disponibilite-2025\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Price_Availability_and_Refurbished_Offers_in_Late_2025\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Prix_disponibilite_et_offres_reconditionnees_fin_2025\"><\/span>Price, Availability, and Refurbished Offers in Late 2025<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Launched at <strong>\u20ac399 in early 2024<\/strong>, the Asus AirVision M1 has seen its price gradually melt away. In December 2025, they can be found between <strong>\u20ac299 (promos) and \u20ac349 (standard price)<\/strong> at official retailers. This drop makes the product much more competitive against the Xreal Air 2, which remains stuck at \u20ac399.<\/p>\n<p>Several purchase options are available to you:<br \/>\n\u2013 <strong>New Official (\u20ac349):<\/strong> 2-year manufacturer warranty, full accessories<br \/>\n\u2013 <strong>Refurbished (\u20ac249-279):<\/strong> Appeared on BackMarket and Recommerce since August 2025, &#8216;Excellent&#8217; condition generally available. 12-month warranty.<br \/>\n\u2013 <strong>Asia Import (\u20ac280-310):<\/strong> Beware of customs fees and the absence of EU warranty<\/p>\n<p><strong>Black Friday \/ Cyber Monday 2025<\/strong> saw offers at \u20ac279, an excellent entry point.

Stock is generally available, with no shortages unlike the 2024 launch.<\/p>\n<p>Asus does not (yet) offer a &#8216;Pro&#8217; or &#8216;Plus&#8217; version. Rumors of an AirVision M2 for CES 2026 with 90 Hz and reduced weight exist, but nothing is official. If you&#8217;re hesitating: at \u20ac299, the M1 is an excellent buy. Beyond \u20ac349, the Xreal Air 2 deserves consideration.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"verdict-achat-2025\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Should_You_Buy_the_Asus_AirVision_M1_in_2026\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Faut-il_acheter_les_Asus_AirVision_M1_en_2026\"><\/span>Should You Buy the Asus AirVision M1 in 2026?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>YES, if you are looking for:<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2705 AR glasses for multi-screen PC productivity<br \/>\n\u2705 Excellent value for money (\u2264 \u20ac320)<br \/>\n\u2705 Extensive compatibility (PC, ROG Ally, smartphones)<br \/>\n\u2705 Cinema-quality Micro-OLED display<br \/>\n\u2705 A mobile alternative to a classic portable monitor<\/p>\n<p><strong>NO, if you prioritize:<\/strong><br \/>\n\u274c Absolute comfort for 4h+ continuous wear (prefer Xreal Air 2)<br \/>\n\u274c Competitive gaming >60 Hz<br \/>\n\u274c Ultra-lightweight (72g vs 110g)<br \/>\n\u274c Intensive use in direct sunlight (limited brightness)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our final 2026 recommendation:<\/strong> The Asus AirVision M1 has matured, and at its current price (\u20ac300-320), it represents one of the best entry points into the world of AR glasses. Software updates have fixed early bugs, compatibility has expanded, and the Asus ecosystem (notably ROG Ally) offers an optimized experience.

The standard iPhone 16 requires a USB-C to HDMI adapter, which adds latency and reduces the experience. For optimal use with iPhone, prioritize a Pro model or wait for future wireless AirPlay compatibility (unconfirmed).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can the AirVision M1 be used for gaming in 2026?<\/strong><br \/>\nYes, with nuances. For solo, narrative, RPG, and strategy games, the experience is excellent. For competitive FPS, the 60 Hz and 25ms latency are limiting. The AirVision M1 shines especially on ROG Ally, Steam Deck, and Switch to transform the portable experience into an immersive large screen. For serious esports, a classic 144+ Hz monitor remains superior.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the difference between AirVision M1 and Xreal Air 2?<\/strong><br \/>\nThe AirVision M1 (110g, \u20ac299-349) offers better OLED contrast and native multi-screen software (Virtual Desk) at a lower price. The Xreal Air 2 (72g, \u20ac399) is much lighter, has superior optics, and better outdoor brightness, but requires a separate Beam box (\u20ac120) for advanced multitasking. Choice: prolonged comfort = Xreal, budget-friendly PC productivity = Asus.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"sources-references\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sources_and_References\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sources_et_references\"><\/span>Sources and References<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomshardware.com\/peripherals\/wearable-tech\/asus-airvision-m1-ar-glasses-review\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tom\u2019s Hardware \u2013 In-depth Asus AirVision M1 Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/the-asus-airvision-m1-is-a-wearable-display-for-multi-taskers-060237509.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Engadget \u2013 AirVision M1, the portable display for multitaskers<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitec.ch\/en\/page\/the-airvisionm1-augmented-reality-glasses-do-not-convince-me-37533\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Digitec \u2013 Critical opinion on the AirVision M1<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.asus.com\/us\/displays-desktops\/glasses\/airvision\/asus-airvision-m1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Official Asus Site \u2013 AirVision M1 Specifications<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"kk-star-ratings kksr-auto kksr-align-left kksr-valign-bottom\"\n    data-payload='{&quot;align&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;30859&quot;,&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;default&quot;,&quot;valign&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;ignore&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;reference&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;count&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;legendonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;readonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;score&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;starsonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;best&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;gap&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;greet&quot;:&quot;Rate this post&quot;,&quot;legend&quot;:&quot;0\\\/5 - (0 votes)&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;24&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Asus AirVision M1: Our Full Review After 1 Year of Use (2026)&quot;,&quot;width&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;_legend&quot;:&quot;{score}\\\/{best} - ({count} {votes})&quot;,&quot;font_factor&quot;:&quot;1.25&quot;}'>\n            \n<div class=\"kksr-stars\">\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-inactive\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"1\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"2\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"3\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"4\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"5\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-active\" style=\"width: 0px;\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n                \n\n<div class=\"kksr-legend\" style=\"font-size: 19.2px;\">\n            <span class=\"kksr-muted\">Rate this post<\/span>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Launched at CES 2024, the Asus AirVision M1 augmented reality glasses made an impression with their promise of an affordable Micro-OLED portable display.
