How we checked

Pimax's official Crystal Super page confirms the exact model — a PCVR-only, interchangeable-optical-engine headset — with a spec table stating "Resolution : 3840x3840x2", "Refresh Rate : 72Hz/90Hz", and per-engine horizontal FOV ("FOV : 106°" for the 57PPD QLED, "FOV : 120°" for the 50PPD QLED recorded here, and up to 140° with the Ultrawide engine); its FAQ states the headset "always needs to be connected by its DP cable" (standalone=false, no battery, no internal storage). Boosted Media's detailed review of this same Crystal Super QLED cites the US price "$1,783 USD" (used for the price) and independently confirms the 3840×3840-per-eye panel, SLAM tracking with four cameras, and a 127° FOV on the 50PPD version (Pimax's own spec table lists 120°, the value recorded to stay verbatim to the manufacturer). Pimax publishes no official weight and reviewer measurements conflict by audio-module/tether configuration (942 g with SMAS, 966 g and 1038 g with DMAS), so weight (g) is left blank; release date is left blank because a 2025 launch is only indicated by third-party reviews, not by the cited manufacturer or corroboration pages, and passthrough is left blank because neither fetched page states a passthrough view.
