WILMINGTON, Del., Sept. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Pimax today shared a major update on its Micro-OLED product line: the Dream Air SE, Dream Air, and Crystal Super Micro-OLED. First revealed earlier this year, these headsets are now approaching launch with finalized specs, enhanced features, and confirmed availability. Together, they showcase Pimax's ability to bring Micro-OLED displays and pancake optics into VR headsets that break industry conventions.
Breakthrough in Micro-OLED VR
Micro-OLED promises ultra-high pixel density, deep blacks, and near-infinite contrast, but faces challenges in heat management, optics, and high-resolution scaling. Pimax solved these with its proprietary ConcaveView pancake optics, making it the first VR brand to deliver Micro-OLED headsets at scale, not just prototypes.
Product Lineup
- Dream Air SE – A lightweight (under 140 g) all-in-one 5K headset with 2560 × 2560 resolution per eye, Tobii eye-tracking, dynamic foveated rendering, 6DOF SLAM tracking, and spatial audio. At $899, it makes Micro-OLED VR accessible to gamers and creators.
- Dream Air – The world's smallest full-feature 8K VR headset, offering 3840 × 3552 resolution per eye (27+ million pixels combined). At under 170 g, it delivers a 110° horizontal and 120°+ diagonal FOV with optimized stereo overlap, balancing portability with uncompromising image quality.
- Crystal Super Micro-OLED – Pimax's flagship, featuring 116° horizontal and 128°+ diagonal FOV, the widest ever on Micro-OLED VR. As part of the modular Crystal ecosystem, it supports interchangeable optical engines (Ultrawide, 57 PPD clarity, and Micro-OLED), ideal for enthusiasts and professional sim users.
Availability
Pre-orders for all three headsets are open now, with shipments beginning later this year. Early adopters will receive exclusive accessories such as prescription lens frames and a free copy of Le Mans Ultimate. All models are supported by the Pimax Prime program, ensuring service and ongoing software updates. We're also offering a limited batch of prototype micro-OLED optical engines to loan exclusively to our earliest Crystal Super supporters.
Redefining the Future of VR
With the launch of Dream Air SE, Dream Air, and Crystal Super Micro-OLED, Pimax becomes the only brand offering a full lineup of Micro-OLED + pancake lens VR headsets. This milestone proves Micro-OLED VR is no longer just a concept—it's real, refined, and ready for users worldwide.

Pimax unveils new VR headsets offering the widest field of view for Micro-OLED
SEOUL, South Korea, April 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Kwang Mo Koo, Chairman and CEO of LG Corp., recently visited the United States to review the Group's future growth strategies, focusing on energy infrastructure as a backbone of the AI era.
The visit reflects Chairman Koo's commitment to securing a proactive lead in the Energy Storage System (ESS) market, which has emerged as a critical infrastructure component due to the rapid growth of AI industries. During his tour, Koo called for the pre-emptive acquisition of market leadership in energy infrastructure to keep pace with the surge of AI data centers and physical AI.
On March 30, Chairman Koo visited LG Energy Solution Vertech, a subsidiary specializing in ESS System Integration located in Westborough, Massachusetts.
"We must establish a resilient business foundation that remains unshaken by any external environment," Koo stated during the visit. "Beyond simply supplying ESS battery hardware, we must enhance our integrated solution capabilities to provide high value-add to our customers, securing an overwhelming position to lead the market."
His remarks underscore that as demand for batteries skyrockets—driven by AI data centers and physical AI—the ability to combine hardware with software-driven integrated solutions will become a core competitive advantage.
LG aims to achieve qualitative growth in the battery business by pairing its world-class manufacturing competitiveness with software-based operation and management expertise, specifically targeting the energy infrastructure market of the AI era.
The ESS market is experiencing explosive growth due to the expansion of AI data centers, industrial electrification, and the transition to renewable energy. In high-performance computing environments like AI data centers, ESS has evolved beyond simple storage to become a vital infrastructure for power load optimization and supply stability.
According to energy market research firms, the global ESS market is projected to grow nearly 2.5 times, from approximately 300GWh last year to 750GWh by 2030.
LG is responding proactively to these market shifts. LG Energy Solution has introduced Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) batteries at the opportune time, aligning with their emergence as the global mainstream for ESS. Furthermore, the company is converting five of its North American production bases into ESS-dedicated lines to meet surging local demand. Currently, LG Energy Solution is the only company producing and supplying ESS batteries in North America.
The synergy with Vertech is also being strengthened. Vertech possesses comprehensive SI capabilities, including ESS design, installation, maintenance, and software-based operational management. This allows LG to provide a "one-stop shop" for customers, covering everything from battery supply to installation and long-term technical support.
