Perspective
Compared to other headsets on the market, the Beyond is significantly smaller than many other headsets, even nearly fitting inside other VR headsets.[1] The Beyond uses SteamVR outside-in tracking,[1] and is tethered to a computer.[2]
For each eye, there is a 1-inch[3] 2560x2560 pixel micro OLED panel that can refresh at 75hz or 90hz. The device uses smaller pancake lenses, as opposed to Fresnel lenses.[1] Additional magnetic lenses can snap on for people with prescription glasses.[4]
Bigscreen 3D prints a custom washable[4] facial mask using a 3D scan of the customer's face, which blocks all outside light.[1] The interpupillary distance (IPD) between the displays is configured at the factory, and cannot be adjusted,[2] which Bigscreen cites as being due to decreasing the weight.[4] Because the device is tuned to a particular customer, the Beyond will not fit well on other peoples' faces.[2] An imperfect fit will lead to "a major drop in visual quality".[2]
At a MSRP of US$999, the Beyond does not come with SteamVR base stations or controllers. Two base stations and Knuckles controllers are an additional $580.[4]
In March of 2025, Bigscreen announced the Beyond 2 and 2e, which added features such as an improved field of view and manual IPD adjustment. The Beyond 2e is capable of eye tracking.[5]

Reception
Road to VR, in a review, called it "the most interesting and promising new dedicated PC VR headset to come out in years", but criticized it for having no built-in audio.[1] The Beyond is praised for its extremely light weight, at 127 grams (4.5 oz).[1][2][3]
