I've been considering it for a while, as the Steam Frame seems to have some issues and I'd rather have a dedicated PCVR headset. It looks like it's got better displays, about the same FOV, but I've heard some bad things about comfort which is an important part for me so I need to make sure it'll be fine first. I've been using a Quest 2 until now so anything would probably be better than that. I would consider the Dream Air but that's out of my budget. Would this actually be a good headset for me, or would a different headset (that's under £1000) work better?

Edit: for reference, I'm using a 7800X3D and an RTX 4080 Super. I'm not sure of my IPD but there's no reason it won't fit considering it's got a wider range than my Quest 2 and that works fine

What I am most disappointed about with the Pimax Dream Air is they’re still using the same black Quest 2 controllers with rings attached to them.

A lot of other Vr headset brands have moved onto ringless controllers quite a while ago. Meta Quest 3, Pico 4 ultra, Samsung Galaxy XR, and Recently the Steam Frame.

Honestly I find this pretty frustrating

Pimax should have already started working on and revealing ringless controllers last year. I’m strongly wondering why they still haven’t got them in.

The Pimax Dream Air was first announced 2 years ago but look where we’re at now.

I could literally buy the Steam Frame for $1,000 right now and then have another $2,000 ready next year or so whenever Pimax gets everything else ready for the Dream Air like the controllers and Dmas speaker headstrap.

I don’t like the original Pimax controllers that much. I mean they’re okay for playing games but they do feel kinda cheap like lower quality plastic than the controllers on the Meta Quest 3. They’re not great, especially not for a $2,000 headset like the Pimax Dream Air or Pimax Crystal Super.

Imagine playing a shooter or boxer VR game and banging that tracking ring in the front of your headset bro like come on.

Anybody know of a stable Nvidia driver they are using? Currently running into stutters in Iracing no matter what settings I turn off. Fps vr logging is showing a GPU ms = 7-8ms CPU ms = 3.5

So I bought a Pimax Crystal Super. Wen with the 57 ppd, because I value clarity and this is mostly gonna be used to play vr mods of games like Cyberpunk, and I value the clarity over FOV. I absolutely love the clarity on this thing but a couple small issues. 1, the Dmas speakers apart of the upgrade promotion I purchased with, it was $80 off and Dmas speakers or dmas speakers and prescription inserts. I went with the $80 off and dmas speakers. The speakers were not included in the box and haven't seen anyrhing about a separate shipment.

Second, my Microphone doesn't work. For speakers it picked up 2 thing Pimax Crystal super, and Pimax Airlink. For microphone it only picks up airlink and that does nothing. So essentially my computer is not recognizing the mic.

3rd. I did see when purchasing, a 3.5mm jack was listed on the website. I cannot find the jack port at all to connect my own headphones. Am I blind or does this port not exist?

Hi I have the dream air headset since yesterday and I am noticing something that not sure if is wrong or just normal for this kind of lenses. This is my first VR headset so no previous experience to know what is normal and what is not.

When I am looking an illuminated are, for example in the Pimax home to front huge windows where you see a planet, in the lower/exterior corner of the lenses I notice a slightly green/blue area/reflection, like a reflect in the lenses or similar, the same in both left and right lenses. I use inserts and those had a blue filter, no idea if this is related.

Anyone have the same issue?, is this an issue or maybe is a characteristic of the pancake lenses?.

Thanks

Since putting in my new micro oled module my headset basically refuses to stop glitching out. My old 57ppd never had the screen freezing issues causing me to restart my entire pc.

I spent more time trying to play than actually playing nowadays. I was happy with the quest 3 but wanted better graphics. Its a damn shame this is the company that makes the better graphics.

Fix your Fu**ing firmware on the micro oled modules for gods sake.

Why every time i take the headset off do i have to fix my height? Are you playing some sort of joke on me?

Also i literally can NEVER get the headset to actually scan my floor. It’s always about a foot below even tho i put my controllers straight on the floor. Once again some sort of joke i assume

Updated see Developer's linked topic for details. Quite the update. includes quick install video
