Is the sticker on the bottom of the 5k+ supposed to say just 5k? That’s a bit confusing.
yeah its like playing the lottery, tough luck

I think it should say 5k+

Mine just says 5k…don’t know if anyone has received one that says 5k+ on it…
I doubt it’s just the standard 5K… in those just about daily reports on how many units Pimax is producing, testing and shipping… it’s only 8K and 5K+. It appears they haven’t been producing the standard 5K. And probably for good reason… which backer would want it?
if i am not wrong @Heliosurge has a 5k+ that says 5k+

The box the headset came in says 5k+ on it. If its supposed to be labeled as 5k on the headset itself its going to cause some confusion in the future if someone decides to upgrade from a 5k to a 5k+
I agree…i think you should be able to see it in PiTool but not sure at all as i still wait for mine to be shipped.

Mine says 5K Plus on the box, but 5K on the bottom of the headset.
Pics I took here of the 2x 5k+'s I’ve received.

They are just crap at labels, both are still a 5k+

That is quite concerning. What if they send someone who orders a 5K+ but actually send them a 5K.
Is Pimax just going to say the sticker is wrong and the unit is still a 5K+?
Or does the PiTool differentiate between the models, so that once connected you can tell what it really is?
But come retail market, this would require a recall as the product is too confusing to consumers!
You cannot have a 5K and a 5K+ but both having the same sticker on it.
Mine also says just 5k on the bottom of my unit, a possible problem is if someone wants to sell their unit, it will be harder to prove it is in fact a 5k+, so you may get less money for it.
@bigo93, Pi Tools correctly identifies the headset as a 5k +.

The box with the power adapter in it was labeled straps and the box with the head strap was labeled power adapter…
I lolled at it.
BTW mine says 5K on the bottom of it.
I know it is a 5K+ though from the pixel arrangement.
