We get our hands on a Pimax Crystal VR production headset. Check out our initial thoughts with unoptimised flight sim gameplay footage in an F16 on DCS World on an RTX 3080ti. We cover off some tips and tricks for setup, and compare it against the HP Reverb G2, looking at comfort, fit, clarity and size/build quality. Stay tuned for more detailed looks at Microsoft Flight Simulator as well as how the Pimax Crystal stacks up on our RTX3080Ti on sim racing on iRacing, Assetto Corsa and more.
