Should you buy it?
Buy the Dream Air SE Lighthouse if you already own SteamVR base stations and controllers and want the cheapest Micro-OLED PC VR headset in our catalog, below the Bigscreen Beyond 2 and with the eye tracking the Beyond 2 lacks. Pimax lists 2560 x 2560 Micro-OLED panels per eye, a claimed 105-degree horizontal field of view, an optical unit under 140 g, Tobii eye tracking for dynamic foveated rendering, built-in spatial audio and an RTX 2080 minimum GPU. Field of view depends on fit: VR Komplize measured about 101 degrees with Pimax's ProFit face interface, while TechyTalk got 86 degrees with its face shape. Skip it if you don't own base stations, since the SLAM version adds inside-out tracking and controllers, or if you want more pixels, since the pricier Dream Air has 3840 x 3552 panels.
Lighthouse owners who want a light, affordable Micro-OLED upgrade from a Valve Index or Vive Pro.
New VR users without base stations, and anyone chasing maximum sharpness.
