Delivery dates 8K+ and 8KX

Can we update here the expected delivery dates of the 8K+ and 8KX headsets when backers have chosen an upgrade plan?

So when will the first HMD’s start to leave China and how many per week?

@PimaxUSA is 18th December still the ship date for 8KX Backers?

Yesterday I paid the 8KX using the update program without plans, (I am backer, and I wanted to keep my rewards) I asked in the store chat if I was still standing on December 18 as the date of shipment, and they said: January.

He he pimax!! Here we go again!!
Hopefully the date wont slip to much, at least we have something cool to look forward to next year, lots of time for sweviver to show us how good it is :smiley:

Lots of people have opted for the new plans, this means later orders wind up with later batches than the initial. As with any production there are always variables that can affect a ship date, if any such changes arise we’ll put out an bulletin with updated information but nothing like that so far.

Remember we have 400 X’s to ship to the original X backers who have been waiting the longest and are first in line.

Oh… you could have used current owner upgrade plan…

Yes, in fact that plan was the one I used, since it is the only one with which you get the discount of 100 and keep the rewards of stretching.

That is $200 discount actually :grinning:
Let’s hope we get them soon.

Hi @PimaxUSA

Can you give us a rough estimate on how many units could be produced per week?

1000, but they can only ship 2 per month. :laughing:

As a suggestion,
In Matter of continues updates, maybe that could be a topic for a monthly or 2 weekly show, Where you could announce such updates and that information, progress reports and so on.
@SweViver and @PimaxUSA, establishing a continuous “show“ thing like that could help.

With software like alfaview.com it’s also „easy“ to do conferences x Country internally and maybe take short insights from there into the show without larger hassle.

@MReis Seconded @PimaxUSA @SweViver Please no more Livebroadcast. I have to wake up at 2am to catch them.

I want to catch the screams of disappointment and joy Live.

@DrWilken also there isn’t going to be one convenient summary I can just CTRL+F when I wake up.

If I’m around I’m always happy to help :+1:

I was around for the days leading up to PDay 2, but the date finally slipped enough I couldn’t tune in live as a friend came to stay from abroad. Even though she actually has a background in engineering, a Pimax stream is sadly not quite entertaining enough for most people hehe…may I suggest the addition of juggling with fire, cooking, or cats for the next one… :grin:

yeah, …disappointment.

This again…give the guy a break. :smirk: Any answer he gives you will be scrutinized and held as some sort of absolute truth then when they cant make the amount we will all be disappointed and angry.

I have considered that situation when I asked it anyway. I just want to hear an estimate and if they have learned anything from the past (hahahaHaHaHAHAHAHAHAAaaAAa) they could throw in a bit of margin to be safe.
