At Pimax, we recognize that the VR community was built by passionate users like you, those who took the first steps into virtual reality with devices such as the Valve Index, HP Reverb G2, Oculus Rift S, and the Meta Quest series. These headsets brought immersive technology into homes around the world, opening up new ways to explore, create, and connect. They weren't just products; they were milestones in the evolution of VR.
We believe that early adopters have played a key role in pushing this industry forward. Your feedback, curiosity, and dedication continue to shape what’s possible in virtual immersion. And now, as VR technology takes another leap in clarity, immersion, and performance, we want to make sure that the next stage is within reach.
That’s why we’re launching a special upgrade campaign. If you’ve previously owned a VR headset, we invite you to submit proof of your device and receive an exclusive discount on the Crystal Light. It’s our way of lowering the barrier for experienced users who are ready to level up, and of saying thank you for being part of VR’s journey so far.
You’ve already believed in what VR could be. Now, it’s time to experience how far it’s come.

Which PCVR Gamers Will Benefit Most from Pimax Crystal Light?
If you’re one of them, the Pimax Crystal Light stands out as a true next-generation headset — built for enthusiasts who refuse to compromise. But who exactly should consider this device? Let’s break it down.
Flight & Space Simulator Enthusiasts: Precision Cockpits and Deep-Space Immersion
The wide FOV expands your situational awareness dramatically. In the cockpit, you’ll easily check side panels, spot approaching aircraft or orbital debris, and track multiple targets in complex airspace or asteroid fields without feeling constrained.
Its QLED + Mini-LED display technology brings rich color depth, inky blacks, and stunning contrast to skies, nebulae, and distant starfields — whether you’re flying through a sunset or descending into the shadows of a planetary ring.
Combined with uncompressed DisplayPort 1.4 connectivity for ultra-low latency and flawless image fidelity, Crystal Light delivers a cockpit and spaceflight experience that feels authentic, responsive, and endlessly immersive — perfect for long-haul flights, dogfights, or deep-space missions.
Perfect for: Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, DCS World, X‑Plane 12, Elite Dangerous, Star Citizen
Racing Simulator Drivers: Track Every Detail
With 4K-per-eye resolution and 35 PPD pixel density, Crystal Light makes every trackside marker, apex point, and telemetry display razor-sharp and readable at a glance.
Its wide FOV gives you a wider view of rival cars and tight corners, letting you judge overtakes, track positioning, and braking points without tunnel vision.
The QLED + Mini-LED panels enhance lighting transitions, track textures, and surface details — whether it’s asphalt, gravel, or wet curbs — delivering tactile visual feedback through light and color.
Paired with uncompressed, low-latency DisplayPort visuals and a lightweight, balanced form factor, it’s built for multi-hour endurance stints and competitive races where clarity and reaction speed are everything.
Perfect for: iRacing, Assetto Corsa Competizione, Euro Truck Simulator, American Truck Simulator
Story-Driven & Open-World Explorers: See Every Landmark, Feel Every Moment
Whether you’re wandering through modded Skyrim VR, exploring the post-apocalyptic ruins of Half-Life: Alyx, or charting alien landscapes in No Man’s Sky VR, the 4K-per-eye resolution ensures that distant mountains, rusted street signs, fine foliage, and intricate weapon textures remain crisp and clear.
Its wide color gamut brings sunsets, neon-lit streets, and eerie dungeons vividly to life, while the 90-120Hz refresh rate ensures smooth, responsive motion without distracting judder or latency. Unlike lower-resolution headsets that reduce distant scenes to pixelated smudges, Crystal Light keeps every visual detail intact — uncompressed visuals preserve the emotional impact of even the most intense story moments.
And because long play sessions are inevitable in those games, the headset’s lightweight, balanced design ensures maximum comfort for hours of uninterrupted adventure.
Perfect for: Skyrim VR (modded), Half‑Life: Alyx, No Man’s Sky VR, Into the Radius
Shooting & Tactical FPS Gamers: Spot Targets, React Instantly
The expansive 130° diagonal field of view lets you track multiple threats, check blind spots, and cover entry points naturally, without tunnel vision. In tactical scenarios where milliseconds decide outcomes, having that extra peripheral awareness gives you a crucial edge.
What truly sets Crystal Light apart for FPS players is its uncompressed, zero-latency DisplayPort connection. Unlike wireless streaming or USB-based solutions that introduce compression and delay, Crystal Light delivers a direct, lossless video signal with ultra-fast response times — ensuring your aim, head movements, and trigger pulls register instantly, without stutter or lag.
Combined with its QLED + Mini-LED panels for crisp contrast in dark interiors and bright exteriors, plus a smooth 90-120Hz refresh rate for flawless motion clarity, Crystal Light is engineered for VR gunfights where precision and speed win the day.
Perfect for: Pavlov VR, Vail VR, Ghosts of Tabor, Contractors
Social VR & Creative Apps: A Crisp Canvas for Connection
The wide FOV enhances spatial awareness in crowded multiplayer spaces — no more missing a friend waving from your peripheral vision. And for VR sculpting, 3D painting, and design apps like Gravity Sketch, Tilt Brush, or Adobe Substance 3D Modeler, the accurate color reproduction ensures your creations look exactly as intended.
Whether you’re building digital art, hosting a multiplayer event, or hanging out in virtual lounges, Crystal Light’s lightweight, comfortable form factor lets you stay immersed and active for hours.
Perfect for: VRChat, Rec Room. Neos VR, Gravity Sketch
