Pimax Delays VR Headset Shell for Its Nintendo Switch-style Handheld Portal

The release of the Pimax Portal, a handheld device that can be used as a VR headset, has been delayed due to a hardware redesign. Pimax announced that the VR portion of the device needs improvement in weight distribution and comfort. They also found some components to be weak if the device is handled roughly. The View headset shell, which holds the handheld Portal device, has been delayed as it undergoes a redesign inspired by Pimax's Crystal and '8K' headsets. The new design aims to provide better weight distribution and comfort. The device is expected to ship to backers in Q3 and will be available for public orders afterwards.
