KIWI design Comfort Head Strap Accessories Compatible with Quest 2, Elite Strap Replacement for Enhanced Support

I was surprised at how comfortable this makes the headset feel. I have been playing PCVR for about a year now with my quest (basic strap). I would often be constantly adjusting the headset due to discomfort. I installed this headset and let me tell you it makes playing VR probably 50% more enjoyable in my opinion. The headsets mechanism is firm and quiet (no rattling). I honestly think if you play wired PCVR then this is your best bet because I rarely run out of charge playing with my Link Cable. Price is justifiable in my opinion. The plastic used is high quality, and the cushion is soft and similar to the feel of a pair of gaming headphones. The Headstrap also screws all the way in which is very practical for storage. For 40$ you are getting quality comfort- I would stay away from certain head strap attachments on Amazon because a lot of them just cant compete when it comes to the quality of this thing. Your closest competitor would probably be the SupaVR 8000 mAh head strap. Although you get a battery for the same price , the quality just isnt there Kiwi definitely takes the cake

Really comfortable for long play time.

instantly fit so perfectly im blown away. seriously im in heaven right now, im typing this on virtual desktop its like a good hug but for my head, gentle and snug

My twin sister wore it and rubbed a large hole of hair out. Has a bald spot mid forehead where top band rubbed. Now she wears a bandana with it. I have not problems and it is SOOOO much better than what comes with the headset from the factory.

Liked it was easy to install that my granddaughter did it herself.

Husband loves it!

This new oculus strap is very comfortable and makes my exercises so much more pleasant. No more slipping down or falling off!

Finally!!

I really cant believe how much of a difference this makes in comfort. definitely cant go back to stock now.

Before I review: 1. Headphone Users - The ONLY downside to this head strap is that the way its built doesnt really allow for you to wear headphones over your Quest 2 unless theyre absurdly wide. If thats a concern, Id look into something shaped a little differently (Such as the BOBOVR M2, which I personally found to be really unbalanced and uncomfortable - but Im told that adding weight to the back helps. Do with that information what you will.) I personally prefer using some high-quality earbuds (or even just the stock speakers) so this doesnt impact my score at all - but I find it worth mentioning. 2. I recently saw that KIWI is now offering a head strap with a built-in battery (look for Battery Head Strap on their website) but after having set this one up with a small battery harness (also sold by KIWI on Amazon, search KIWI design 3 in 1 Battery Strap) and a cheap 10,000mah battery bank (that I originally bought for keeping my phone charged on hikes) I see no reason to make the switch - its perfect just the way it is. Anyway... On to the review: This is easily the first accessory that any Quest 2 owner should pick up. I generally avoid 3rd-party accessories for gaming hardware. I mean, everyone knows that the Official products are better, right? Not this time. The stock strap is always either too loose or too tight and, after a little while, it just starts to loosen up on its own... so then you over-tighten it and end up with a headache. KIWI somehow makes products that exceed the official Meta accessories in quality while offering them at a lower price (sometimes a LOT lower). Its just mind-blowing to me that Meta/Facebook sets their retail prices staggeringly high and yet cant offer a fraction of the quality that KIWI does (like their 16ft link cable that literally outperforms the official Oculus/Meta link cable at a fraction of the cost)... not to mention that the official Elite strap offered by Meta is so cheap and brittle that it snaps like balsa wood. Incredibly comfortable, super easy to install, and if you add on a cheap USB battery (doesnt everyone have a few of these now-a-days?) its the perfect setup for those day-long VR sessions. Theres something so satisfying about the clicks as you tighten the knob... knowing that once youre comfortable, its going to stay that way. This upgrade singlehandedly improved my experience to the point that I could easily double or triple the length of my gaming sessions just because of the comfort difference. Ive never been this comfortable in the Quest 2, and I know Ill be getting all my Quest accessories from KIWI from now on.
