8K backers - our suppliers and logistic agencies are about to shut down for holiday. We will ship a new batch to our UK, US, and HK warehouses after the Spring Festival.
If you prefer to change to 5K+, please let support@pimaxvr.com know asap, better this month, before the holiday in Feb. you can get your headset at least ONE MONTH earlier if you switch to 5K+.
Some facts:
we have enough inventory for 5K+;
we will start pre-order shipping soon;
backers love 5K+! Here are the most recent reviews:
Overall verry impressed. Played on wide FOV @ pitool setting 2 and steam SS 200%. No problem so far on gtx 1080ti. Have not tried high demanding games yet but looks good so far. Will try more tomorrow.
Its good! I did hope for a bit more in terms of clarity on the horizon like in Project Cars and so a bit less SDE than it is (in game play you will lose the SDE, but if you try you can focus on it), but it’s a solid step forward to my odyssey and the larger FOV is immersive!
Black Levels are good for an LCD – sure you can see its more gray then black (taking an OLED as a base) and if you search in dark scenes you can detect back light plead – but in the normal amount for an “LCD” based display – my ASUS ROG WHQD is no better at that then the PiMax.
Colors look good in my opinion – Skyrim is great, Project Cars is great.

As always, any question / comment, please feel free to let me know!
Getting 5K + earlier for a whole month, seriously? Are you saying that we still have to wait more than a month if we have chosen 8K?
You promised to send by January 29th all 8K. Where are they?
And now we are stuck here from 8K at least until March, it turns out?
Horror…
But I still will not change 8K to 5K +, in any case.
Absolutely agree.
One month timeframe doesn’t get me out of my way.
I choose the headset, not the timing, after all. Therefore, we will have to wait as long as necessary, although we were promised to send all 8K by the end of January…
Yeah ridiculous to advertice this way, it tells me they have more to gain themselves with it.
Things like easier to fullfill kickstarter campain, gain more money with us getting an cheaper 5k etc…
In general, I have little understanding of what is happening.
All these promises to send in such and such periods constantly grow into other terms.
Now, it’s not far from the Chinese holidays, and the cart is still there.
And we are already afraid of an additional month of waiting at least against the nearest dispatch of 5K +.
I think this is not normal, this should not be. But this happens again and again. My optimism is starting to evaporate.
Nope, some company (a lot) will give their employee more holidays(more than national holiday) on “Spring Festival”,if not, people usually will Ask for a leave for more days.
So Ship can’t start at Feb 11th.
Maybe leave at Feb 1-2th then Back At 13-18th.
My parents already start their holiday today…
