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

Fair Price. Much more comfortable for extended usage. Way better than the factory one for my Quest 2. Also made it a lot easier to keep the Quest 2s lenses directly in front of my eyeballs versus the factory one.

Purchased to replace original elastic strap. This one is better and outperforms the original. Happy with the purchase.

This is somewhat more comfortable than the basic strap included on the Quest 2. The ratcheting tightening mechanism is much better than the sliding clips the basic one has. Its easier to put on and take off, as well, since you dont have to stretch elastic, and the padding is nice and soft. That being said, it still slips around on my head when I play even moderately active games, such as Pistol Whip. If I tighten it down far enough to stay still, the pressure is too much. Also... I dont want to say its flimsy, but I managed to pop one of the pivot joints apart trying to take it off my headset, since I put it on backwards once. Theres a note that says be careful to get the right and left sides straight, but it didnt seem to say how to identify the right and left (there are small letters stamped in the plastic near the swivels.) The joint went back together alright and seems to work, but yeah. Careful with this strap if you need to take it back off, more moving parts means more parts to break. Anyways, Im moderately happy with it. It is an improvement, even if its not quite perfect. Ill use it for a bit and then consider another strap, maybe.

The head strap and band is great. It helped hold it on but relieved some the weight to the face. Had to look on YouTube to find out how to put it on. Turned out easy.

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.

Bought this for my son. He loves it!

WORTH 90$ GOS FOR 38$

This was a game changer for my sons. Their occulus was constantly falling off their heads, leaving them marks on their faces and cheeks, and was simply uncomfortable. This makes it easy to change the size, because my kids have different sized heads, and they have a better overall experience while playing. Love it!

The old headset made it difficult to enjoy the game, but this headset, along with the new face mask, makes playing effortless!
