Pimax 8K Series
1

To the people who were early backers and wil receive their units soon:

Do you own a Pimax 4K and which headset are you going to get?

Can you do review when you have received your headsets about the difference in color, clarity, SDE and such with the Pimax 4K please?

I have a HTC Vive so I think the 8k will be a nice upgrade.

Likely getting the 8k over the 5k+ since I plan on upgrading my 1080ti to a 2080ti soon.

Pretty much in the same boat myself. Excited to have a headset with an even better sharpness than the Gear VR (which is pretty nice using the Galaxy S8).

Is the loss of SDE not an issue for you?

317 coming from a Rift and sticking with my 8k order.

Only really use the VR for flight sims and porn… (Sometimes both)

Well, I did own one, I sold it when pledged the 8k.
All I can tell you is that is was a pretty descent experience with a average PC gaming (I had message like what my pc wasnt enough powerful for a good VR) and “forgetable” SDE once in game so Iam not worried about the two differents units SDE.
Was using it without controllers, only with paddle, wheel and HOTAS.
It made me pledge the 8k as soon as I could.

Asked for 5k+ switch.

Much appreciated!

I’m 4300 so the only happy part is that I can maybe get some relevant reviews before I’m asked to choose.

who knows except for the testers, no one really knows what it looks like for a comparison. I would expect the 5k+ to look somewhere between the 4k BE and the original 4k. i had no problems with the original 4k except that it lacked any kind of roomscale tracking.

Well thát and it was steps ahead of everything in SDE.

I just need to know how the 8K compares to the 4K in SDE. Because if the 8K is really much worse then maybe the clarity of the 5K+ is the better choice. If I’m gonna go backwards anyway might as well get the one that has the edge on other aspects.

From the pictures i have seen of the tester reviews, i would say the 8k comes closest to the 4k in terms of SDE. but I do not see any significant enough difference to give up performance for that tiny gain in SDE. So I’m going for the 5k+.

Yea but I doubt the difference is small between the 8K and 5K+ in terms of pixels per degree

Backer #13, don’t have a 4k, have a Vive, DK2, Rift, Go and PSVR.

Getting the 8kX and going with the loaner 8k because I think I would like the immersion better in a slightly-blurry world instead of a sharp and pixelated one.
