Another 8KX first impression for people who wants to know what to expect

That’s my experience anyway, perhaps an old firmware had that issue and I didn’t try it.

Will see what the 8KX does in comparison, should arrive by tomorrow evening.

Yes I did hold it for few seconds. Just pressing it, I don’t remember, maybe it goes to red state immediately. Holding for few seconds indeed turns it off (light goes off) but this lasts only 1-2 seconds and comes on again.

I have the same problem. I can make the 8KX enter stand-by, but I can’t turn it off with the power button.

Have created a ticket for the thick foam the day I originally posted JFYI.
And the thick foam and the eye-tracking module arrived today. YAY!
Don’t have an RTX. Double YAY!
Only if 3080s would be regularly available in the market…
Will test and update my original post regarding the thick foam.

I need a thick foam for my wife to use it as well. I thought it came with thick and thin foams, that’s what it advertised as.

Do you just create a support ticket to receive the missing foam then?

I received a thick foam today along with my eye tracking module.

Two days ago I received my 8KX with a sleeve and hand tracking module.

Yes. You’ll need to provide the order number but that’s all I did.

Maybe we should all email Nvidia to thank them for making Pimax sales and shipping look good in conparison!
