==Intro==
Released in April 2016 by Pimax Technology, the [[Pimax 4K ]] is claimed to be the first ever 4K Resolution VR headset. Priced at USD375 and available from GearBest, this award winning UltraHD VR headset has grabbed the attention of SteamVR and Oculus VR gamers alike. [Few sentences about the product. Who made it, its core function/feature and audience. Additional information about its release date and cost.]
==Features==
*Pushing boundary in the HD VR technology, Pimax 4K boasts a 3840 x 2160 pixel resolution, significantly higher than competitors Oculus Rift’s and Vive’s 2160 x 1200. This means clearer and sharper picture when you’re playing games like WarThunder or DirtRally The Pimax 4K features a dual 53mm lense that provides an 110 Degree FOV, putting it on par with established VR Headset on the market.
*The Pimax 4K Adopts 1000 Hz features a dual gyroscope which reduces dizziness for 53mm lense that provides an 110 Degree FOV, putting it on par with established VR Headset on the users, although user experience may vary relativelymarket.
==Hardware==
Sleek looking and elegantly designed in black, the Pimax 4K is built with ABS with medical grade sponge covering the edge of the headset, providing a comfort wear for the users. A glaring flaw would be the nose section, where it’s not covered in any protective sponge, making it uncomfortable for users wearing it for long durations.
While it’s not 3840 x 2160 in its truest sense, having a 1920 x 1080 resolution with 90Hz refresh rate on each eye still puts it far ahead amongst VR headsets competitors. Its auto myopic adjustment features enable some users to wear the headset with or without glasses.
The Pimax 4K comes with removable audio headphones, where you can easily detach from the side strap should you opt to use your own higher quality headphones.
