In response to Varjo Aero massive price reduction to 990 euro (still requires to add at least one base station for simming) Pimax introduced Crystal-Sim Limited Edition without the controllers for 1499 USD (if you already completed Half Life Alyx and you need Crystal only for simming, this might be an acceptable option).
The EU price for the most stripped-down Crystal-Sim without DMAS earphones (DMAS are great but if you are on a budget, you can go with cheaper default audio solution, still better compared to what Varjo Aero offers) and without controllers is:
- 1369 EUR headset
- 76 EUR shipment
- 315 EUR VAT (example for Poland)
TOTAL: 1760 EUR
Varjo Aero (without controllers, very limited headphones and mic):
- 990 EUR headset
- 199 EUR base station
- 0 EUR shipment
- 274 EUR VAT (example for Poland)
TOTAL: 1463 EUR
