Following a conversation, capturing a first-person view, and playing a game call for different kinds of smart glasses. The main task sets the starting point; display format, fit, and connections then narrow the choice.
RayNeo iO suits everyday AI assistance, captions, and a transparent information display. GT Max offers a wider entertainment view with native 3DoF, and GT a lighter entertainment frame with a more contained view. X3 Pro is the camera-equipped AI and AR option when visual interaction is part of the task.

RayNeo models by main use
Once the main task is clear, optical fit, display format, and the phone or source device complete the picture.
iO: everyday AI assistance and captions
RayNeo iO is the natural starting point for live captions, translated conversations, teleprompter prompts, weather, schedules, and notifications. Its 33-gram frame and camera-free design support an everyday information role.
The display is binocular and monochrome green, designed to keep text and compact information near the wearer's line of sight.
iO pairs over Bluetooth with the RayNeo AI app for iPhone or Android. In face-to-face translation, the phone shows the wearer's translated reply to the other person.
This direction fits a day built around conversation and information, and for offices that prefer a camera-free frame, iO is the natural fit.
X3 Pro: when the camera belongs in the task
RayNeo X3 Pro adds camera-equipped AI interaction and a full-color AR display. It has its own processor, storage, AIOS, Wi-Fi, and battery in an approximately 76-gram frame, and a phone handles setup and hotspot connectivity. The cameras capture first-person photos and video alongside its AI features.
For a user weighing conversation against visual tasks, the camera is the dividing line: iO is deliberately camera-free, while X3 Pro makes the camera part of the product's role. The choice follows the input the task needs, rather than treating one as a simple upgrade to the other.

GT Max: a wider entertainment view
RayNeo GT Max is designed for movies and gaming from a compatible source device. Its 59-degree field of view creates a wider image than GT's 46-degree view. The 267-inch cinema-display description is a virtual-screen viewing scale, with other screen-size options also available.
GT Max offers native 3DoF viewing modes for head-tracked screen positioning. Follow keeps the image centered as the head moves. Steady provides damped movement for travel. Pinned keeps the screen in a set spatial position for a more stationary viewing experience.
Fit is another reason to consider GT Max. It comes in three IPD sizes selected when purchasing: S for below 64 mm, M for 64–67 mm, and L for above 67 mm.
Prescription correction is a separate choice from IPD size. GT and GT Max include a prescription-lens frame sample that an optical store can use for custom fitting, and custom lenses support myopia from 0 to -10.00D and astigmatism up to -2.00D.
GT: lower weight and a more contained view
RayNeo GT provides the same broad entertainment direction in a 68-gram frame, compared with GT Max's 78 grams. Its optical design uses a fixed 64 mm IPD and a 46-degree field of view.
The more contained view suits someone who prefers the whole image within easy sight. GT's 49 pixels per degree and GT Max's 38 pixels per degree reflect different angular image densities, while both use Full HD resolution, so GT packs more pixels into each degree of view.
Both models have open-ear speakers for movie and game audio. Both support up to 120 Hz in 2D and have native 3DoF. That shared foundation leaves viewing width, frame weight, and optical fit as the meaningful reasons to choose between them.

Connecting GT and GT Max to a source device
GT-series glasses receive video and power from a compatible source. Direct USB-C connection works with ports that support DisplayPort video output.
Steam Deck and iPhone 15 Pro are examples that connect directly using the included USB-C cable. A PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S connects through the RayNeo HDMI to Glasses and Charging Adapter, powered by an external USB-C PD source. A Lightning iPhone connects through an Apple Lightning Digital AV Adapter together with the RayNeo HDMI adapter and the glasses' USB-C cable. The GT-series connection guide illustrates each connection route.
Dolby Vision viewing on GT or GT Max uses RayNeo Pocket TV Pro with compatible Dolby Vision content. Other compatible sources handle general viewing through their own connection routes.
Questions that narrow the final choice
RayNeo iO is the clearest starting point, since its transparent display and camera-free, lightweight frame are built around that role.
How can a USB-C source stay charged during use?
The RayNeo USB-C Charging Adapter provides a route for charging a compatible DisplayPort-over-USB-C source during use, while GT and GT Max draw their power from that source.
How do I choose the right GT Max size?
Pick the optical size that matches the wearer's IPD: S for below 64 mm, M for 64–67 mm, or L for above 67 mm.
What does Dolby Vision viewing on GT or GT Max involve?
Dolby Vision on the GT series pairs RayNeo Pocket TV Pro with Dolby Vision content, while everyday viewing runs through any of the supported connection routes above.
A useful shortlist follows the main task: iO for everyday information, X3 Pro for camera-equipped AI interaction, and GT or GT Max for entertainment. The final choice then comes down to the display experience, optical fit, and complete connection setup.
