> 24 hourThis KIWI design headphone head strap for the Meta Quest 2 is not perfect but really nice. Here are my thoughts. - Easy to install. - Works with whatever face interface you want, including the BoboVR fan. - Is for the most part comfortable to wear. Though due to the lack of a batter pack on the back of the head strap, theres some slight forward pressure. Significantly less so than the original strap, but its still noticeable. -The built in headphones are really nice. They are slightly awkwardly placed since the supports they are on cant slide along the head strap to line up with your ears. The ear phones do slide up and down the supports to a point, so there is some adjustability, and I was able to get them comfortably on my ears. It just seemed odd they were attached to the strap so far forward. -The sound is better than expected. Im not an audiophile and Im not using it to listen to music to perfection, so for me they are great. I can hear well, it sounds good and gives you a bit better of a feel of immersion than the headset speakers. -There is no battery that comes with this strap. To me thats a bit of a bummer (not unexpected as I knew it didnt have one before I got it) as thats a huge plus to 3rd party straps. Most come with extra batteries to extend/support the life of the headset during use. Not a deal breaker. Just more of a want. Over all its a nice, comfortable headset with built in headphones for a more immersive experience.

> 24 hourThe design is sturdy and fits everyone in my family with easy adjustments. It is comfortable, and the integrated headphones fit nicely. My only criticism is the sound quality is marginal for music when listening above 60%. I would still recommend this product for anyone who doesnt intend to listen to music loudly or isnt particularly critical about sound quality. Its perfectly fine for normal audio.

> 24 hourSo much more stable and comfortable than the strap it came with. The earphones are very soft and stay in place. Worth every penny. Do it!

> 24 hourI was disappointed with this. While the side straps are sturdy, the head strap itself is too heavy and uncomfortable to wear for extended periods of time. Despite the enlarged head support, I found it difficult to get a comfortable fit, and the cushions did not provide the level of comfort I was hoping for. The design of the hinge is convenient, but it does not make up for the discomfort of the strap itself. Additionally, the silicone protective ring cover for the controllers is not well-designed and often gets in the way while playing. Overall, I would not recommend this product.

> 24 hourMy Quest Elite headstrap broke in two places one day last week. Was surprised to be honest. Didn’t last that long. I’ve also been using various earbuds with the headset, so was intrigued to try out this strap. Love it! I don’t spend hours and hours on the headset (that’s reserved for my HP Reverb G2 and sim racing) but I do SuperNatural and Tripp quite a bit each week, and also a few games that require some movement (Climb, Unplugged, etc.). This strap is super comfortable. I don’t really get too hot when exercising..not really more than before. I do use the VR Cover Fitness Facial Interface, which helps disperse heat quite well. So not sure if other reviewers have tried that. But overall, this is super comfortable…SUPER comfortable. There is a lot of adjustability for the ear pads to find the sweet spot. Sound is what is to be expected but it’s just as isolated as earbuds. Does the trick for this purpose. Would definitely purchase again. And don’t expect I’ll need to as I see this lasting a long time.

> 24 hourThis is an awesome addition to my oculus quest 2. I really love that when my husband is playing his games I can no longer hear his noise in the background in the next room, so my tv time isn’t interrupted. This was well packaged and easy to install onto the head set. It’s comfortable and the sound quality is great. I played a game just to try it out myself and I really like it. I do think it is a bit overpriced for what it is.

> 24 hourI have the elite strap, Bobovr M2, and now this Kiwi with Audio strap and like them all. - The Oculus Elite is the most secure and the smallest and will fit in any case, and can tighten the most in a clamping style on your face, making it the strongest but also the most uncomfortable after a long session. - The Bobovr halo style was okay, but the back would slide up with quick movements and the headset would droop at the front onto my nose. This could only be countered by velcroing battery packs on the back strap to counterweight, but it was comfortable after these mods. It wasnt the most secure for something like Thrill of the Fight though - This Kiwi strap is a combo of the comfort (padded) and security (clamp style) but also adds soft ear bumps/cups that nestle against your ear for a better audio experience. A battery pack attached to the back will always help with how front-heavy the Quest 2 is, but this has not need that yet. Overall, they all have their benefits and I will probably keep all of them. Elite for fast action, Bobovr for relaxing games, and the Kiwi for an all around strap. I will most likely use the Kiwi the most because it is an all-around good headset for any game. I had no complaints about the default speakers before other than they had to be turned up pretty high, but having speakers that are more like headphones that sit right against your ear are a big plus for the Kiwi.

> 24 hourThe knob on the back is so fast to loosen and tighten it makes putting on this headset great. I wear glasses and it was difficult putting the normal headset on. But with how this tightens in the back its so easy. It also does a great job at reducing weight on your face and making the image sharp. You wont be disappointed.
