Bigscreen Beyond 2 Begins Initial Shipping Phase, Targets Full Fulfillment by September

Okay, so picture this: Bigscreen’s got this new headset they’re finally shipping. It’s called Beyond 2. There was this hiccup, like usual—because nothing ever goes smoothly, right? But they’re finally rolling these out.

If you snagged one of those pre-orders, I guess you’re in for a wait. They’re saying orders will keep heading out till, like, September or so. Order one today? You’re probably looking at late summer to get your hands on it.

Now, let’s talk versions. There’s the Beyond 2 and the snazzier 2e with eye-tracking. Prices? Oh yeah, $1,019 and $1,219. Pretty steep, huh? But you can dive straight into their website and snag one.

Oh, and people are absolutely eating these up. Pre-orders smashed records like crazy. Bigscreen’s bragging that the sales in just the first day flew past what the original Beyond managed in four whole months. Wild, right?

It was enough to get them to ramp up manufacturing. Like, imagine scurrying around a factory in LA and hiring new folks. They’re even flying engineers out to watch over production. Talk about dedication.

And for those who went for extras, like the Custom-Fit Cushions, expect those by mid-August. And the Halo Mounts? Those might take a bit longer. Manufacturing delays are a pain, aren’t they?

Here’s a kicker: if you ordered a Beyond 1 and still haven’t seen it, they’re bumping you up to a Beyond 2 for free. So, yay for upgrades, I guess?

One last bit—those pesky tariffs on China-made stuff? Yeah, Bigscreen promised they wouldn’t let it hike the price. April comments and all that.

So, there you have it. A messy little whirlwind of shipping news and VR headgear hype.
