Bigscreen Beyond Orders Should Now Ship Within One Week (www.uploadvr.com)

What makes Beyond the smallest and lightest shipping VR headset is the same reason it takes longer to ship. Each unit has its lenses fixed to match the distance between the customer's eyes and a face pad molded to the shape of their face, based on the iPhone face scan they provide when ordering.

When Bigscreen started shipping the first Beyond headsets to preorder customers just over one year ago, new orders faced many months of waiting from submitting the scan to having the headset, with even preorders slipping by months.

If Beyond's claim of now shipping within one week of the scan is true, it represents a significant milestone for custom-fitted headsets.

That's one way to kill the reseller market for your product.
