A Portable Google TV Experience on a Colossal Screen

The Pocket TV brings abundant entertainment content into XR glasses, representing a significant leap in enriching the XR glasses content ecosystem. Co-developed by RayNeo and SEI Robotics, the sleek and portable Google TV streaming device unlocks numerous entertainment options for users wherever they are.

Seamlessly integrated with RayNeo XR glasses series, the Pocket TV unfolds a big-screen personal theater experience that can slip into your bags or pockets wherever you go. With Google TV, you can enjoy everything you stream, all on one screen. With 700,000+ movies and TV episodes, live TV, and more available across 10,000+ apps, Google TV takes streaming to the next level — bringing together your favorite entertainment from across your apps and organizing it all, just for you.

Personalized recommendations from Google let you discover new movies and shows based on what you've watched and what interests you, so you can quickly ﬁnd your next favorite. And that new show your friends are raving about? No matter where it's streaming, add it to your watchlist — right from your TV, phone, or browser.

A Compact Powerhouse with Ample Local Storage

The Pocket TV turns into a massive power bank for the XR glasses. With a mega 6,500mAh battery, it's sufficient to watch 5.5 hours of videos in one go. Need a quick power-up for your phone on the go? The Pocket TV can also charge your phone with its USB-C output while you're enjoying your favorite content on the big screen. Convenience at its finest. Leave behind your small-screen tablet and portable charger, simply bring the Pocket TV to enhance your travels.

Restricted local storage remains a constraint for similar accessories to XR glasses, presenting a challenge for consumers in outdoor scenarios, particularly those on long-haul flights or with limited internet connection. The Pocket TV addresses this concern with an impressive 64GB of built-in local storage. Moreover, it is expandable with a microSD card of up to 2TB. That allows you to download your favorite movies, shows, and music directly to the device while enjoying seamless offline playback later. No need to worry about connectivity and data limits. Enjoy uninterrupted entertainment wherever you go.

The device features streamlined buttons for effortless control. Access popular apps like YouTube and Prime Video with a single click or through customizable shortcuts. Alternatively, just press the button to activate Google Assistant using your voice, and the intelligent assistant will help you play music, search for shows, or discover content in your preferred genre. Enjoy an expansive, private cinematic experience tailored to your preferences, in any position you like.

Pricing and Availability

The Pocket TV will be available on the RayNeo Amazon US store later this month at a recommended retail price (RRP) of $179.
