sounds like it is still a long way off the production model...... I knew a Jan launch was likely to be BS but in this instance i was hoping to be wrong....
on one hand so long as they get it right it is better than rushing a broken product

on the other hand the longer it goes until launch the tougher the competition is likely to be.

Pimax release an update for Beta Testers.

Hi Futurists,

Only those who spend hours a day in the virtual world and have tried out all types of headsets are eligible to claim what the best VR experience is.

We are glad to have a community full of such enthusiasts - many of you have witnessed the evolution of the home computer and consumer VR, even the early wave of VR headsets back in the 90's.

Like in all emerging industries, enthusiasts play a crucial role in pushing the boundaries of VR. In fact, the inspiration of Pimax 8K stems from the interactions with enthusiasts in this community. For the last two years, you have been contributing thoughts and feedback based on your experience with 4K, (and other headsets), which in turn has allowed us to build and shape 8K.

We are about to start a round of closed beta testing for the Pimax 8K M1 prototype. The goal is to have some of you to test the prototypes from both professional and enthusiast's perspective, and let the Pimax team know how the experience matches up to your expectations. All feedback, suggestions for minor tweaks, and of course your time, is greatly appreciated!

Here are the steps for the closed beta:

We will email our chosen testers to confirm their participation (around 10 in total, to account for availability of headsets and manageability of the program), starting this weekWe will start shipping to the testers as soon as M1 testing units are ready. Testers inform Pimax team when they have received the unitsShortly after, we will announce the testers in the forumTesters answer a standarized questionnaire from Pimax team - the questionnaire will let you know what stage to complete it at during testing and when to have it finished byTesters join the closed discussion and communicate with Pimax team - Login details for the closed forum will be shared alongside the questionnaire Testers agree on a release date that allows all testers to have time to organize the reviews - this can take place in the forumAfter the testing period is over and we head into the release day, testers can now answer questions engage in the open forum with the rest of the Pimax community about M1 and their experiencesBests,

The Pimax Team

If (and that's a big IF) it all works as intended, I'm not complaining. With HTC taking the pee on pricing lately, I can wait...

Pimax Update. M1 unity’s ready for testing!

Hi Futurists - We got the first batch of trial assembly units from the factory yesterday, and we are now testing them in-house, testing is a very crucial step that we are taking seriously!

We have eight testers on board. The selected testers are actively preparing for the closed beta testing. They have already started to contribute thoughts to us in terms of how to improve the testing process, and how to make the community satisfied with the final product.

After testers receive the units, the team will have an in-depth discussion with them to evaluate the experience as a whole.

And when they get the feedback from the closed beta how long will it take them to make any design changes?
