"One of the things you'll notice in the Pimax Crystal Light right from the get-go is the incredible visuals and clarity of the display, including all the small writing, gauges, lights, absolutely everything. Truly is crystal clear."

"For its price point and what you get. It has the best resolution, the best coloring, the best displays of any other headset that is currently even remotely close within its price point."

Pimax Crystal Light Review: A New PCVR King is Born


"I've tested tens of VR headsets over the years and there has always been some sort of level of frustration... but Pimax genuinely knocked it out of the park with this one. I've had absolutely no issues, disconnections, artifacts, or reasons not to love this new headset."

FAQs

  • You pay the base price of $599 and receive the headset.
  • If you like the headset, choose Pimax Prime, you can choose to pay at once for a discount (10%), or you can keep trying the headset for 14 days (and then choose Prime), or refund.
  • After your 14 day trial period ends, refunds are no longer possible.
  • Any refunds issued will also include any costs paid for Pimax Prime

For any technical issue through no fault of the user within the warranty, Pimax will replace the headset at no cost for the user. Any costs, including shipping , are covered by Pimax.

Yes. After 24 months (or if you decide to pay off Prime in one go), the whole headset is yours and you'll never be required to pay for any subscription. The subscription is tied to your headset, so even if you sell it, the subscription won't reset.

  • This refund policy from Pimax is quite good, users can try the headset for 14 days and then refund it if they want. (Many high-end VR brands do not offer any form of refund.)
  • We see this as offering more flexible options for users. Users can choose themselves to pay for Prime in one time or 24 months.
  • Again, 24 months is an option. Users can also just choose to pay in one-go and never have this situation.
  • Any contract duration left, users can also pay off the remainder of the months left, but then no discount (10% for Light and 12% for Super) is available.
  • Even then, every headset (including Pimax Prime) can be transferred twice in the duration of the contract.

You can pay Prime at once and you never have this situation occur. But yes, if you choose for monthly payments, and miss a payment, then the Pimax Play software will stop functioning, until you complete the payment.

No, you don't need to pay any fees, including shipping and restocking fees. It's completely worry-free.

The warranty period starts from the date you receive the product.

  • CPU: i5-12400, i5-12490F, i5-12500, i5-13400, i5-12600, i5-14400, i5-13490F, i5-12600K/KF, i5-14490F, or above.


However, the minimum requirement for the Pimax Crystal Light is:

  • CPU: Must be i5-12th generation or higher (hard requirement).

Yes, the RTX 3080 is compatible with the Pimax Crystal Light. For flight and racing simulations, you can achieve medium graphics quality by adjusting the parameters.

Yes, the stock controllers are listed on our webstore. You can purchase them later if you want to play games with controllers.

Local Dimming is a technology that enhances the black levels on your screen, making the dark areas even darker. The difference between the 'With Local Dimming' version and the 'Without Local Dimming' version is not only reflected in the hardwares, but also in the software. The purpose of launching Crystal Light is to better cater to the needs of users who pursue high definition but have a low budget. Implementing local dimming technology not only relies on software algorithm support, but also requires mini-LED backlight technology.

Therefore, the 'Without Local Dimming' version of the head display does not have the original backlight configuration.

MSFS2020 and Crystal light ... wow

I really love to fly with the Crystal Light. Since 3 month I have it now on my desk and I use it for all my flights in MSFS2020. I cannot wait for the next update to get. So excited to have a even better performance as I have already.
Solid 5 stars

Beyond expectations

I’m new to VR so wasn’t sure what to expect. Blown away by the quality and experience. Easy to set up and now just tweaking to maximise fps.

Very impressed by the Crystal Light!!

Coming from 3, no, make that 4 prior headsets from a different company over the past 8-9 years, I knew I had to get the Crystal Light for simracing...and I'm not disappointed! The visuals, along with the DMAS, absolutely stunning in iRacing. I'm fortunate to have a great PC to race on, but I can tell you that the Crystal Light will keep being my go to for years to come!
