8KX Logistic Advisory
We have now manufactured enough 8KX headsets for all existing orders which includes backers, upgrades and pre-orders. All orders are expected to ship before the end of this month.
I find this very hard to believe. Sounds just like when they said all 8KX headsets are expected to ship in December 2019
Do you believe Pimax that they claim to ship before the end of the month?
I want to believe but they have fallen short of predictions so many times that it is hard to fully believe when they make a claim like this. I will say that this prediction does line up with the recent claims of them shipping around 60 headsets a day, but I find that claim hard to believe also. At this point I have to doubt until proven wrong. But I truly hope its the real deal this time.
It just also seems like another one of their unrealistic timelines. To go from slow as a snail to suddenly shipping all headsets within a month. I wish that were true. But we’d be suckers to believe them.
If they’re shipping ~60 units the past few days, that’s roughly 180 headsets shipped this week so far. I’ve only seen one guy mention he received tracking and that was today. I’m not saying that all preorders/upgrades are people on the forums, but you’d think it’s certainly more than 1. I’m not expecting Pimax to hold to the exact quoted numbers, but something seems rather fishy.
They also said supporters through pimax day pre-order priority is again, get used to
I think, on the grounds that manufacturing is completed does not mean the check is complete, which represents about their day inspection qualified only 70?
Yes, someone at Pimax said that the units are being shipped from the factory to another office, where they are all retested, before being shipped out to customers. They also said they are shipping other stuff, besides 8KXs.
Still, it seems very slow. Perhaps they need a few more employees to help with shipping.
I for one am pleased to think that each unit that leaves the building will have been properly tested - given how much of a pain it will be if I have to send it back for repair!
quality control -> they might have produced them all but they mentioned they send them from the factory to the pimax headquarters first to inspect each hmd
Do all pre-orders mean the P-orders also? As like me who ordered in June? They seem very confident and I believe they will deliver :). I don’t know where all negativity comes from. Since I’ve been here they have been very transparent about everything and constantly answering people questions here in forums and give weekly updates. Don’t really understand the hate.
I think the hate is due to the repeated delays. These days, a lot of people want instant gratification. Personally, as long as my 8KX is good, I’ll forgive the delays, especially since part of it is due to increased QA.
I totally agree I don’t mind if a product is delayed due to improvements or extra quality control. Such as the Reverb G2. I get annoyed when Pimax mess your order up and promise to rectify the mistake as a priority then fob you off completely!!!
Multiple quotes taken from different conversations with pimax over the past 10 days…
I succeeded. I will deliver the order for you tomorrow
The reply from logistics and customer service is that it will be sent this week.
your order will be arranged next week
It has already started, please be patient and it will be completed this week.
Will be processed and shipped within a week
I have not received anything and just want information that I can 100% trust.
This right here is why there is so much negativity. Don’t believe that they will deliver all headsets before the end of the month. History shows all of their promises and timelines have been a lie. We are tired of Pimax lying to us. It’s been 9 months of lies.
