    Have had it maybe 6 weeks and it already cracked on me as it has on many others. The design is flawed and Oculus has already pulled most of the stock for sale. I'm hoping a second revision will fix it and improve the build quality. Other than breaking it was a very comfortable strap.

    Broke in 20 days. Was more comfortable while it lasted but something this expensive should at the very least last longer than its return period?

    Broke after a month of light use. Buy it if you like things that cost money and do not last. More like Elite Crap....amiright?

    Bestbuy was great with the order and shipping. The product is absolutely trash. Extensive reported failures of this headband requiring RMA for replacement. The problem... The plastic does not have the strength to maintain its integrity and fails really quickly. I Had this part for less than 90 days before it failed and had to be warranty replaced. I also have the elite version with the battery built in and it has failed also due to the same issue.

    I bought this at the end of January (after the recall and remake of the first edition of these). I've had it for less than 2 months and it started to crack. I am a sole user and I use the headset very mildly. The arm of the strap essentially just cracked on its own because it is made with cheap/defective material. You have been warned.

    Oculus elite strap is not much better than the strap the quest 2 comes with. I've had it for only 2 months and it broke. I wish I had read the reviews before I purchased. Many others have same complaint. With so many complaints, this is definitely a defective item. Hopefully Best Buy will accept the return and get a credit from oculus. If enough people do this, oculus will Hopefully produce a product that isn't made so cheaply

    Low Durability

    Excited for this strap but was disappointing due to quality. I've used this especially for VR workouts where you need to ensure it was tight enough. But both plastic sides were beginning to crack, not just one crack but multiple ones. I wish they could have reinforced that material as that is where the stress is holding the VR itself. See images I have uploaded, I used super glue but more cracks were occuring.

    Awful. I’ve used it very gently maybe 5-10 times in the few months I’ve owned it. I went to use it after not having used it in a long time, and the strap was cracked entirely on one side. The other side has multiple cracks on the other side ready to break at the slightest touch.

    This strap is pretty comfortable but I’ve had it a total of 6-7 weeks and it broke. I’ve seen a lot of people complaining that their elite strap has been breaking fairly quickly and was hoping that wouldn’t happen to me. Unfortunately, it did.

    Plastic on left side broke today after after 6 months of very light duty use (1-3 times per week, less than 1 hr per session). I should have heeded the warnings I read about other users encountering similar failure.

    only lasted a week before cracking. The plastic is thin a brittle. This was a complete waste of money. The opposite side will probably go the same route since it already has a crack.

    Broke in less than a week--while my son was wearing it! We'll see what they do in terms of warranty. I will be ticked if I have to pay a dime (even shipping) for something that worked less than a week.

    Garbage, thing is so easily breakable without having to even try. The sides are so flimsy they will easily deteriorate after just putting on and taking off enough times. Not worth your the investment.
