Meta Quest 2 Elite Strap

Product Information

When I was looking to upgrade to an "elite" head strap for my virtual reality experience, I didn't necessarily want to spend the cash for the official Elite version (see below). I was looking for a Quest bundle that combined accessories, and I found this one from Esimen. In terms of the Elite Strap itself, we've rounded up several 3rd-party Elite Strap alternatives that are more affordable and oftentimes more comfortable than the official model. Adding the Elite Strap makes it much heavier to hold and less likely to fit inside a third-party case. But that applies to most strap upgrades, not just this one. Padding is essential. Your skull has minimal padding; that padding needs to come from the head strap, not you. Given that it’s much easier to remove the straps in Quest 2, I can’t help but think we’ll see a renewed push for third-party accessories and mods on the new headset, even with Facebook’s official alternatives. I definitely think others could push the comfort even further; I’d be likely to replace the Elite Strap with a new FrankenQuest solution should a 3D-printed design come about. Conclusion

If you're unconcerned with battery life, you can choose the basic Elite Strap (or any of the excellent, cheaper third-party options). But the Battery gives it a natural balance, whereas the rest would make you attach an unwieldy power bank to your head or else accept seeing low power warnings after an hour or two. The Oculus Quest 2 is more comfortable than its predecessor. It’s smaller, lighter and has a softer strap. But, of all the many improvements to be found in Facebook’s newest standalone headset, comfort feels like the smallest leap.

You can easily handle the extra weight; in fact, I'd argue it makes the Battery version a better design choice because you'll rely more on weight distribution than a tight knob to keep it firmly in place. META QUEST IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE https://www.oculus.com/quest-2/removable-facial-interface-alert. Because the Elite Strap fastens the headset so firmly, you will want to choose a new face cover, assuming you don't already have one. A simple silicone cover will help keep your face cool (and more sanitary) compared to the default foam. But armed with that, you'll feel snug and safe using your headset compared to before.

The Kiwi head strap is a great budget alternative to the Elite strap, with a few nice editions that make it stand out from the competition. My son loves using this for long Beat Saber sessions, so it's a firm favorite in our house. We'll start with the elephant in the room: the Elite Strap can snap if tightened too much and may wear down over time. While Oculus claimed this issue affected a "very small percentage" of buyers, widespread reports across VR forums suggest the problem hasn't been solved, even for new buyers. As for how much extra time the Elite Strap with Battery gives you, I found I would burn through it in about 2 to 2.5 hours, effectively doubling the life of the headset. It's a major boon for me, because my Quest 2 battery tends to die after about 90 minutes of gameplay. My new Strap lets me enjoy longer play sessions — at least until my cat starts getting in the way. For the first time ever, Facebook is making an upgraded strap accessory. How does it fit?

You don't always want the head strap to be as tight as possible, but you need it to stay at the right tightness despite your jumping around.
