> 3 dayThe big phone part on the back of your head does not stay in place like it will pop out as soon as you take it off your head Im really disappointed in this but it still comfy its just really annoying to have to put back on all the time

> 3 dayListen, we all know the head strap that comes included with the Quest 2 is hot garbage. I purchased a different head strap a couple years ago to replace it. When I saw this product come across my feed, I was intrigued to try it out. Installation was even easier than my original replacement headset. The 3.5mm jack that plugs into the side for the included headphones doesnt throw off the balance at all, nor does it dangle or get hung up in any way. The top strap is thick and comfortable. The headphones are easily adjustable to the player as well. My 11-year-old is playing as I type this and the best part is I cant hear any of the inanity going on in RecRoom. Beyond that, of course, the headphones adjusted to her head nicely with little to no fuss. I played for about 90 minutes after I installed the head strap and it was the most comfortable Ive ever felt wearing the Quest 2 and Ive logged a significant amount of hours over the last couple years. This product isnt cheap, but as is often true in life, you get what you pay for. I anticipate many hours playing a variety of different games and not being even remotely uncomfortable. If youre going to drop a few hundred on a Quest (in whatever iteration), spending a bit more to upgrade the head strap is well worth your time!

> 3 dayI absolutely love this replacement head strap. It is comfortable and well made. The challenge - it only fits into the cases I use, if the large padded plastic head pad is detached (this is what Kiwi recommends.) I dont want to detach the head pad each time I store the headset. I wish they sold a case that would fit my Meta Quest 2 with the head strap and head pad attached.

> 3 dayGreat sound improvement over the stock earbuds! The headband is comfortable and helps wick sweat away from the user. The headphones flip up and out of the way when not needed and are very comfortable in use, they dont cause too much pressure.

Greater than one weekI bought this direct from kiwis website and received it a couple days ago. With my short time with it Ive really enjoyed the audio headstrap. I have previously used the Bionik Mantis headphones, VR Ears from Rebuff Reality. Ive also used the bobo vr headstraps, and elite headstrap. This Kiwi design feels the most comfortable to my head from what Ive tried so far. The strap that goes on top of your head is nice and padded. The part that touches the back of your head has some thick padding that is very comfy as well. The headstrap is also very easy to take off. You just lift it from the back of your head and the back of the strap bends past 90 degrees and it pulls the headphones away from your ears so when you put the headset back on again you wont have to readjust the headphones. Also when I was taking off the headstrap I didnt really have to loosen the back part, I just lifted up the back part and it just came right off. Same with putting it back on slips right back on without having to make too many adjustments. The headphones themselves have some better than average sound quality imo. Definitely leagues better than stock. The kiwi headphones also have thick ear padding which helps since they are resting on your ears for hours at a time. They are also better than the other audio options Ive tried so far. The bionik mantis are not as comfortable as the kiwi headphones and lack bass. The Kiwis are also louder than the mantis. I also have the vr ears which are usb powered but are off ear in design and they also lack bass and also arent very loud. Cable management was much tidier than the bionik headphones. I still wish the cable management was better but it definitely doesnt get in the way putting the headset on or taking it off. It was kind of strange but in my package there was a little clip for the 3.5mm cables it didnt even come in the box the headstrap came in it was just in the package with it. Not really sure where I could even use it at to be honest. These are super adjustable as well, You can adjust them up and down, and the earpads swivel. They are on ear and are spring loaded so they are naturally going to press inward. I really couldnt be happier with the sound and comfort of the headstrap. The only problem with the headstrap is that it doesnt have a built in battery. Having no battery built in isnt a dealbreaker though. I added a bobo vr b2 battery dock to the back of the headstrap. I just velcrod it in behind the padding on the back of the strap. The battery dock even came with a rubber bumper so it wouldnt rattle from plastic on plastic. I got this for 72.00 shipped. On amazon regular price is 80.00, right now there is a 20% coupon you can clip which knocks the price down to 64.00. For that price you cant go wrong youre basically paying 32.00 for some headphones and 32.00 for a great headstrap.

Greater than one weekI have many ear piercings that make most headphones uncomfortable after even a short time. These are very comfortable even after a couple of hours of play. Easily adjustable and easy to put on.

> 3 dayThis head gear is INCREDIBLY comfortable. Despite all the plasticy padding Getting it up and running with my Quest 2 was easy. The headphones are a great touch and offer a completely immersive experience (note though that these do not surround the ears so background noise (if loud enough) will still seep in). When I host VR parties, these are a hit. The general consensus is that these are well worth the money. I have used these often and have not noticed any cracking in the polymer frame. LOVE THIS. It makes the VR experience a luxury event.
