Just seen the first real review of the Rokid Station and - for me at least - it seems a better option than the Beam. Essentially it's an Android TV box that can connect directly to the Rokid glasses.

I was planning to get the Beam, but reading all these issues with streaming, DRM and connections makes me think that a box that runs Android TV and allows you to Chromecast directly to it would work better for me. Of course, the one thing you don't get is the ability to fix or move the screen position, but I've come to realise that I don't really care about that anyhow, and having all my various streaming services running off a smaller device with its own battery would be perfect. I'm curious whether this device would work if plugged into the Xreal Airs ;-)

I'd be interested to hear whether you prefer this to the Beam or whether the unique functions of the Beam are important for you.
