Released Guide updated

The XREAL 1S is a pair of display glasses that plugs into a phone, computer or gaming handheld over USB-C and shows its screen as a large virtual display. It replaces the original XREAL One and beats it on every core number: 1200p instead of 1080p, 700 nits instead of 600, and a 52 degree view instead of 50, for $50 less. The X1 chip anchors the screen in place without any app.
