Prime Day Deal: These Xreal AR Glasses Impressed Us With Their Sharp Display, and They're $120 Off Today
The online retailer has slashed $120 off the usual price, which knocks them down to $449. That beats the previous all-time low by $50, which makes this a pretty incredible bargain. However, there's no telling how long this deal will last, so we'd recommend taking advantage of these savings sooner rather than later.
These advanced augmented reality glasses impressed CNET Editor at Large and wearables expert Scott Stein with their sharp and vivid display, solid sound and wide compatibility. They're equipped with 0.68-inch micro OLED panels, which allow you to enjoy your content on a massive 147-inch spatial display with a 50-degree field of view. They boast HD resolution, 5,000 nits of brightness and a 120Hz refresh rate for smooth performance, making them a solid option for gaming as well.
The new and improved X1 chip provides ultra-low 3ms M2P latency, and supports image stabilization so you can enjoy your content on the go. Plus, they're easy to connect to your phone, laptop or game console with a USB-C video input. You can connect them to devices with an HDMI port, but you'll need a separate adapter. They're also equipped with Bose-engineered speakers for excellent and immersive sound.
Why this deal matters
VR and AR devices are getting more affordable every day, but they still aren't exactly cheap. Deals on cutting-edge tech like these Xreal One glasses don't come around very often, so a chance to grab yourself a pair at a record-low price is a bargain you'll want to jump on while you can. Especially since they could be getting more expensive in the coming months due to tariff-related price hikes.

Record crowd expected at Bristol for the MLB Speedway Classic between the Braves and Reds
Workers still have some finishing touches to put on the field inside the racetrack at Bristol Motor Speedway, and officials are expecting a record crowd in a week to watch the Cincinnati Reds play the Atlanta Braves in the MLB Speedway Classic on Aug. 2. 'We can't wait for next Saturday night ... when that first pitch is thrown out and the stands are full,' Jerry Caldwell, Bristol's president and general manager, said Friday. 'We'll be setting records, we'll be having attendance records. We'll announcing all those details later on, but we'll be there, I know we will.' The largest crowd ever to see a baseball game was 115,300 for a March 2008 exhibition between the Red Sox and Dodgers at Los Angeles Coliseum. Bristol packed in 156,990 for the Battle of Bristol college football game in 2016. Officials showed off the work Friday with a baseball field now sitting on top of the infield inside the half-mile bullring where cars and a building once sat for NASCAR races. Murray Cook, an MLB field and stadium consultant with BrightView, said he's excited to be at this point in the process of building a ballpark. Final touches still remain for the clay along with all the padding and branding, which should be in place by Wednesday at the latest. Crews also held a light check Thursday night to make sure the Musco lights meet MLB standards. 'We've had a blast building this,' Cook said. Even though the Braves play the Reds in Cincinnati on Aug. 1, the day before the Bristol game, fans are being encouraged to settle in for the big party planned both outside and then inside the racetrack for game day. Caldwell said fans should show up by noon on game day to enjoy the attractions outside the track, including music, a 110-foot Ferris wheel, a food truck row, pitching tunnels and batting cages and team mascots. Once fans head inside, Tim McGraw and Pitbull are scheduled to perform. Demolition started in early June with heavy construction now in high gear to transform Bristol Motor Speedway into a ballpark for the first MLB game in Tennessee. This game features grandstand seating for fans along both baselines. Both teams will be wearing NASCAR-inspired uniforms with details like flames on the brim of the Braves' caps and a finish-line checkerboard for the Reds' caps. The MLB Speedway Classic also will be included in the 'MLB The Show 25' video game after an update scheduled for Tuesday. Caldwell said the project has been long in the works. 'We're ... thrilled to be able to welcome everyone to Bristol and partner with Major League Baseball, the state of Tennessee and so many others to be able to pull this off,' he said. ___ AP MLB: and AP auto racing:

Palantir stock: Why this analyst says it's an AI winner
Shares of Palantir (PLTR) are up about 110% so far in 2025. But despite the high valuation, Piper Sandler equity research analyst Brent Bracelin still initiated coverage of the stock with an Overweight rating and a $170 price target. Hear him explain why in the video above. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Market Domination here. Brent. It is always great to see you. So let's get right into this Brent. You initiate pound here with an overweight, you're a believer Brent and a new platform powering the AI revolution. You say, just walk us through why this is a Brent buy. How do you explain it to your clients? Yeah. Most expensive um stock on our coverage list, uh, at 52 week highs. Why are we overweight? Why do we like this business? And I, I think it's important to note that one, our price targets are, are kind of one year out and, and, and two, we, we've seen the stock that, that's acted very volatile, right? Uh, 12 20% to 29% drawdowns over the last 5 years. Um, you've had the stock down 12% the day after earnings and Q1. But we don't really think that's all that important. What really matters is how big this company can get. And, and that's where we spend a lot of our due diligence and a lot of our time trying to understand what is Palantir, what do they do? Why is it so special? And in the end, uh, we really think this is a secular AI winner. We're going to put it in the same camp as private AI several winners like an anthropic or an open AI for a different reason. And what they do that's special is they really have created a platform that's going to help help people build new AI applications. And the popularity of that is what was talking to me. We did some due diligence, um, uh, at, uh, in June, we went to a Databricks conference, we went to a SAP Sapphire conference, we're talking standing room only for large enterprise customers that want to do more, learn more, engage with, uh, with Palantir. If you look at Palantir, say 5 years ago, they were competing in some cases with the likes of a Databricks. They were competing in some cases with the likes of Accenture and Deloitte. These companies now have turned from competitors to partners. And so I really think that there is a sea change relative to the opportunity around Palantir. Does that mean the stock is going to go straight up from here? Probably not. There's going to be volatility. There's going to be lots of opportunities to get involved here, but we do think this is going to be one of the key app platforms. It's addressing two trillion dollar separate uh, distinct markets, common platform, common or shared R&D, but two really big secular opportunities in defense and uh, enterprise. The pushback as you well know, Brent. I, I want to get your thoughts on this has been on valuation. Um, you know, I talked to Brent Till over at Jeffries and you know Brent, smart guy like yourself. And I remember Brent telling me, listen, he likes the company and he likes the technology and listen, the fundamentals he says look solid. But I think he actually referred to it as an irrational valuation. It, it's just too pricey, he said, which is why he has the equivalent of a cell on it. How do you respond to that Brent? Listen, there's no doubt this is a very, very richly valued company. It's the most highly valued company in the space. And so what you have to underwrite is the long term. And the long term isn't a straight line up. There's variances and that's what we're kind of betting on. Is you're going to get a chance to buy the stock lower, but it should be a stock that you can buy. Um, this is a company now that is uh, top 25 waiting in the S&P 500. So one way to cheat is you can buy the index and take a small ownership stake in, in Palantir without taking that valuation risk, right? Company specific risk. So if you own the index, that's me 500 index, you own a little bit of Palantir. Our view is the next year, there will be opportunities, there'll be buying opportunities, be patient. Uh, but this has the potential we think uh, to be a AI secular winner, it'd be one of the key platforms. We're talking about a sector looking at cloud software where there are zero, 0 30% public growers next year. Um, we think Palantir can be in a, in a universe of one. So yes, we're trading this a little differently. We're looking kind of at the lens of what could this be worth? What's the art of the possible? Uh, if you're not comfortable with looking out 5 or 10 years, it's going to be really hard to justify evaluation on this one.

Citadel, founded by CEO Ken Griffin, bought a mix of shares and put and call options in spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds, including the largest, the $88 billion iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), according to 13-F filings. It also owned smaller Bitcoin funds such as the Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB), the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB) and the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) among a range of international and domestic equity ETFs during the first quarter. Overall, its IBIT holdings rose by 2.1 million shares from what was reported in its fourth-quarter 13-F.

It sold off its stakes in the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust ETF (GBTC) and the Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust ETF (BTC).
