2023-02-17 14:57:02 Bigscreen has introduced the Beyond, a PC-only VR headset that the company claims to be the "world's smallest."

The device includes two 5K (5,120 x 2,560) 90Hz OLED displays.

The device has sacrificed a few things to get its size.

For example, instead of adjusting knobs and other controls to get an ideal fit, Bigscreen asks you to scan your face using an iPhone app to produce a custom-fitted Beyond design.

Instead you need to buy a compatible controller separately, like the Vive and Valve's Index.

The Beyond is available to pre-order now for $999. Open / Comment
