===Resolution===

The 8K, 3840 x 2160 pixels per eye resolution is, without a doubt, the best feature of the new Pimax VR headset. Wearing the headset, the users will have a tough time discerning pixels on the screen. Pimax 8K ~~boasts of having~~ a higher resolution than that of [[HTC Vive]] and [[Oculus Rift]]. The 8K HMD is much sharper and more transparent than other virtual reality headsets that are currently available. The truly next-generation 8K virtual reality headset ensures the users don’t experience any aliasing or screen door effect. The aliasing and screen door effects are common problems seen in other HMDs. The extremely high-resolution display in Pimax 8K makes sure the virtual objects don’t appear jagged at the edges and no distinguishing lines appear between pixels. At the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2017 in Las Vegas, the Pimax 8K HMD was demonstrated using the on-rails game [[Showdown]] created by [[Epic Games]]. The on-rails shooting game was run using the [[NVIDIA GTX 1070 card]].

====Cost====

The Pimax 8K will cost around $799. People who already own a [[Pimax 4K]] will have to shell out twice the price to buy the Pimax 8K headset~~. But, the new HMD is totally worth the price~~. The Pimax 8K is the sole member of the 8K resolution and 200-degree FOV group. It boasts of specifications and features that are far better than its nearest price competitor HTC Vive.
