Customers find value in the Quest 3 Silicone Facial Interface's comfort and improved fit, citing its ease of cleaning and sweat resistance as key advantages. However, some customers express concerns about the relatively high price and the interface's ability to completely block light. The material used also received mixed reviews, with some finding it less hygienic than alternatives. Overall, the positive feedback on comfort and ease of use appears to outweigh the negative comments regarding cost and light blocking.

I thought I would really like the cloth facial interface of the new Meta Quest 3 after having owned the Quest 2. In short time however, I began to miss the soft feel of the silicone, and the thought of the cloth one getting grimy over time wasn't too appealing either. To save some money, I decided to try a silicone cover that simply fits over the cloth interface, and it was okay,..but just okay. In the end, I opted for Meta's version of the silicone facial interface and feel it is simply the best way to go, even if it does cost quite a bit more. It's just so easy to clean, especially if you share the Quest 3 with other people. I did also buy a third-party washable cloth cover for the Meta Quest 3 cloth interface, but having the complete silicone facial interface makes it much easier to swap when I want to switch between the two.

Hard to use the silicone one with glasses, the fabric/mesh face cushion is better to use if you wear glasses.

It's a better face mask for me and my family as it's easier to clean and share. The cloth may be fine but this is better and can repel sweat instead of absorb it (and get gross). They sell the whole adjustable mechanism to interface with the headset, so it's more expensive than you would think it would be.

A friend told me that one of the first things that starts to go bad with the meta is the padding due to sweat and oil from the face. He recommended that I purchased the Silicon insert and I am happy that I did. It is easy to wipe down keep clean. I think it will help my device maintain a much longer life and better appearance

Id give it a 5 but lets be real this should have come with the initial purchase of the quest 3. Its SO much better than the stock but the price is just absurd. I got this at launch so I didn't have many alternatives.

I like this item, it feels better on my face after longer game sessions compared to the stock cloth one. Is it worth the $40? Not really, id recommend buying a decent silicon cover instead or get this kn a discount if you can.

This is TOTALLY softer than the stock facial interface. Less stress on those cheeks and forehead. It does tend to suction to your face over time. Had ZERO issues with adjusting the distance of the interface (for glasses). And it’s obvious that a lot of the cost is coming from replacing the entire facial interface. Pricey yes - but it is an OEM replacement. I ordered VR cover’s quest 3 facial interface fabric covers (has extra padding) for over top this - so i can wash the covers (you get 2) and keep/wipe the actually silicone interface clean. Essential if you sweat often IMO.

You should get this for a comfortable wear on the Quest 3, it really makes a difference for large hours watching a movie or playing. It makes feel less heavy the device. Price could be better but still acceptable.

This made the Quest 3's facial interface much better, and I highly recommend it. It doesn't get 5 stars because it should have been included with the Quest 3 and not sold as an aftermarket accessory. It's far too expensive.

Another accessory that adds quality of life to this incredible headset. The one that ships with it isn't horrible but it is cloth and you will sweat So it will absorb that and over a time will probably collect a fair amount of bacteria and be a little difficult to clean. This upgrade actually makes it far easier to clean and it's very soft and comfortable. Drawback is that once again it feels like something that should have shipped with the headset and is an expensive accessory to get it to the comfort level that it should be out of the box.

This facial interface is actually a worthwhile purchase, especially if you happen to share your headset with others. Everybody sweats to some degree while playing VR, so it's hygienic to periodically clean your facial interface, and having a backup for others to use is a great idea. It's easy to swap it out with the original and easy to clean.

Really good! It makes gaming more enjoyable and comfortable I love how it feels on my face, I will say it does stick and if you sweat a lot it will start to slip so you might want to wipe it off every little bit. I recommend pairing it with the Kiwi strap that bends in the middle so then you don’t have to take it off as much to just wipe a little sweat off. Besides that it’s a good product!

This face mask is much better than the original one that came with the Quest 3. Cleans easier and it doesn't get so hot wearing it.

It is what it says, a silicone facial interface. It's definitely a different experience than the stock interface, but not entirely better – it has some pros and cons.
In terms of pros, it's certainly easier to clean, and the smoother texture might irritate your face less for long sessions. However, it's slightly less comfortable to wear with glasses (it seems narrower than the standard interface and your glasses have to squeeze into it a bit), and I find after just 20 minutes it creates an unpleasant "suction" effect on your skin. The silicone grips onto your skin and you can't really slide it around or adjust it. I find this a bit unpleasant.
Overall, it's okay. I haven't had any particular issues with it, I just don't find it all that pleasant or comfortable to use. I'm likely to return this, and perhaps try a more padded 3rd-party alternative. I had a "VR Cover" brand facial interface for Quest 2 that was a lot more padded and comfortable. Once those are available for Quest 3 I'd recommend those over this.
