The Pimax Crystal Light is a PC VR headset built for players and simmers who want a sharper, wider, more immersive picture without stepping up to a full base-station setup. It pairs a high-resolution QLED/Mini-LED panel with a large-sweet-spot aspherical lens design, giving you crisp detail edge to edge whether you're reading cockpit gauges or scanning a battlefield. Inside-out tracking means it's ready to go out of the box, while an optional Lighthouse faceplate keeps the door open for base-station tracking down the road.

- Ultra-sharp per-eye resolution — 2880 × 2880 pixels per eye for crisp detail, even up close.

- Smooth motion, your choice of refresh — switch between 60Hz, 72Hz, 90Hz, and 120Hz to match your GPU and game.
- Rich, HDR-capable color — combined QLED and Mini-LED display technology produces a wide color gamut and true HDR.
- Dialed-in fit for any face — manual IPD adjustment from 58–72mm plus an adjustable headband for all-day comfort.
- No external cameras needed — built-in inside-out 6DoF tracking sets up in minutes; Lighthouse-compatible with a separate faceplate.
