I own several headsets and use them on a daily basis. The Vive Pro 2 is still my most reliable headset for VR dance and free-standing games like Skyrim. The tracking is good, and importantly, the cable is relatively durable and flexible. The fresnel lenses are the biggest issue with the VP2, imo, but it's still a great headset for being physically active in an open space.
The Pimax Crystal is absurdly large and I can't begin to use it for free standing activities. It's to much weight on my neck, so I only use it for Sim flight games. It has beautiful optics but I can rarely last more than 45 min using it. I recently got a Bigscreen Beyond headset, and while it doesn't look as clear as the Crystal, is so so so much more comfortable I essentially no longer use the Crystal. However, I don't use the Beyond for free standing activities yet because it's fiber optic cable is somewhat stiff and less comfortable when you're moving around
