Like Chris Sabian from the 1998 film The Negotiator (Spoiler Free)
This product works as advertised for its intended use, in my case connecting USB-C sources such as my iPad Pro and Switch to my Viture One AR glasses.In a perfect world, given that AR glasses accept a USB-C input, and the said devices are known to output video over USB-C, one can imagine plugging the AR glass’s source USB-C end directly into one of these devices and merrily going on your way, blissfully entranced in a giant projected screen and never needing to make eye contact with another human being again. My dear reader, this is not our world; (evident by you here, reading this review and evaluating the merits of the LIVIN AR Glasses Adapter.)As a metaphor, you and your device are the protagonist Danny Roman from the 1998 film The Negotiator, who becomes embroiled in a tense and escalating imbroglio in the first act. What he and you need is Chris Sabian, the eponymous Negotiator, as a neutral party who can be trusted to act impartially at your direction to unravel a much deeper mystery.If you have ever tried to plug a Switch directly into a USB-C display, you likely know the disappointment that it is often not that simple. (I did have a travel monitor that needed no help, an exception to the rule if there ever was one. Sadly, the backlight was uneven and contrast dreadful.) The reason why it is not simple is that upon connection, the Switch (Danny Roman) must to be assured of two things before he will acquiesce: 1) that there is ample power available (preferred 39W from the OEM AC adapter, or about 45W from elsewhere), and 2) has DP Alt support (don’t ask).The LIVIN AR adapter will accede to both of these stipulations, as it can readily make the DP Alt request and pass through power you have supplied through a side port. (Style points for using a right-angle plug.) Now you are playing with power and can put your glasses on. (Hoobastank?) The end.AfterwordI’ve since found that the LIVIN adapter has more versatility than just AR glasses, and has worked for most scenarios I can devise where the power provided to the adapter’s side port needs to be bi-directional — it needs to charge the source device (Switch, iPad) and can power the output device (portable monitor) along with the video signal, cleanly over a USB-C 3.1 10gbps cable. Bravo.Another one is where you are using a USB-C to HDMI cable to send video from a laptop or iPad to a TV. Now you can do this while also charging. Additionally, since the LIVIN adapter talks DP Alt, a Switch is now a viable input. Splendid.The last odd use involves a unidirectional HDMI + power to USB-C output. A cable I already owned allows an HDMI input device (Blu Ray, Analogue Super NT) to combine with 5V USB-A and output USB-C and a usually unhelpful amount of power. Since the LIVIN adapter source input end is also male, you must additionally supply a USB-C F-to-F coupler (USB 3.1 or better) to create a connection without the tips touching. DisplayPort indeed.

Small issue with switch and Xreal Air
Got it to use with my various devices. Was able to use with my steam deck and ROG ally without issue. Device was getting charge (cannot verify if it can hit the 100W that is advertised), and my Xreal Air got the video fine. However, though the switch was advertised I was having issues. After talking to support, they mentioned that for the Xreal AR glasses you need to make sure the glasses are up to date. Then, after connecting the dongle to the switch, and the glasses to the dongle, you need to hold the brightness down button until you hear one beep, then hold the brightness up button until you hear 2 beeps. That solved the issues I had with no audio. You have to do this each time you connect to the switch.

Works with Viture Pro XR Glasses
I bought this to use my Viture Pro XR glasses with my Nintendo Switch OLED.I didn’t want to buy the Viture pro mobile or the dock as they were expensive and instead, I took a chance with this one.At first, it didn’t work but I found out that the Apple Mac power supply was only 30W.You need at least a 65W charger.Other than that, it works fine. If there’s one thing I wish could be improved upon (but not sure how), it’s the USB-C male port. It easily detaches from my Nintendo Switch, and I made sure it was firmly inserted.

Does not work with SWITCH correctly
I connected SWITCH OLED model with XREAL glasses using this adapter.I can see screen on the glasses, but no sounds.Also have to take out JOYCON from SWITCH to make it work. No button, direction pad works when attached.Since there are no sounds, I cannot play any games.For PC, it works fine but don’t see any point of using this unless you have only one USB C/Thunderbolt port and want to charge laptop via PD charger and connect the monitor at the same time on the port.I have 2 Thunderbolts slot on one laptop and other gaming laptop requires 300W to charge (I have not seen PD charger for 300W). Probably better off with USB C hub with HDMI/Display port out.I do not have any other portable game device, so I cannot comment on those, but appears to be working fine from other Amazon review.I do not recommend for SWITCH unless you want to play without any sound.

This is one of the only XR Glasses adapters with provides enough passthrough power to trigger 30W Turbo on the Rog Ally. Works with Air 2 Pro and Rayneo glasses.

表題の通りの用途で使えるものを探してたので。HDMIのドック指せばいいじゃん！← もちろん持ってる。出先にtype-c一本で給電できるモニタ使うの。”SteamDeckに給電しながらTYEP-C入力一本で使えるモバイルモニターを繋ぐ”のに良かったです。バックに モバイルモニター ＋これ ＋ SteamDECKになるので若干軽くて済む。※音声は設定外部スピーカーにしてもSteamDeck側から出力されるのだけ不可解。

もともとはiPhone15とRayneo Air 2を充電しながら使う用途で購入。無事に使えました。予想外だったのが商品写真にはSwitchが写っているものの、SwitchからType-Cで映像出力をする製品を見た記憶がないので出来ると思っていなかったですが、きちんと使えました。Switch – 本製品 – Rayneo Air 2/モバイルモニタ
