With the Prime subscription, you pay in two parts. First, you pay an amount in advance, and if you later choose to keep the hardware, you can buy out the license in a one-off payment. This arrangement is handled via Pimax, with the license fee being paid directly to Pimax. More information about the Prime fee and current prices for Prime can be found on the official Pimax website via this link. Please note that prices can vary by country.
The Pimax Crystal Light Prime edition is a lighter version of the popular Pimax Crystal headset. Where the original Pimax Crystal was a combined PC VR and standalone VR headset, the Pimax Crystal Light is specifically aimed at PC VR. This means that the battery at the back of the headset has been removed, making the headset lighter and more compact. In addition, the Pimax Crystal Light only contains a DisplayPort cable that you need to plug into the computer. The combination of a high resolution (2880 x 2880 pixels per eye) and a wide field of view (about 125 degrees) make the Pimax Crystal Light an excellent choice for use with VR simulation games like Microsoft Flight Simulator and Assetto Corsa.
The Pimax Crystal Light comes with 2 Pimax controllers. The headset's tracking works with inside-out tracking cameras. It is possible to use the Crystal headset with external Lighthouse-tracking sensors, for this you need to have the Pimax Tracking Faceplate (available separately).

What are the differences between the Pimax Crystal and Pimax Crystal Light?
The Pimax Crystal Light does not contain a Snapdragon XR2 processor and battery. The Light variant can only be used in combination with a PC, while the original Pimax Crystal can also be used in a standalone mode. In addition, the Pimax Crystal Light does not have a built-in eye-tracking module (and therefore does not have automatic IPD adjustment). The lenses of the Pimax Crystal Light are also not interchangeable. The Pimax Crystal Light does contain the necessary on-board hardware to make a wireless connection with a 60Hz module possible*.
