    Should come standard

    This should not be an "extra" charge/add on. No reason that this shouldn't come standard issue. Regardless, it is a must buy as the Q3 strap is unusable for abour 75% of users. There are better, cheaper options on Amazon. The Bobovr M3 will be releasing end of month and suggest waiting for that, if you are able.

    Too Pricy for a Strap

    Nice and convenient accessory for Quest 3, but in teams of the price, it’s a bit pricy for just a strap. You can easily find an alternative in Amazon with only half the price. If you don’t care about the price, it’s a must have for your Quest 3

    I regret opting into Meta, and needing this is why

    Oh where do I begin. How about needing this 80 dollar strap because the original strap Meta 3 ships with is trash? Meta 3 is absolutely horrible to use as a screen for your PC and you need really jank connections via steam VR or Oculus Direct, so it loses in integrations to HTC Vive, despite how old that system is... It requires you buy expensive 60 dollar cable if you don't want charging speed throttled, and it will drain and power down within 2 hours of use even if you have it plugged in with lights and sound decreased to absolute minimum. The fans are loud, it gets hot and steamy (fogs) It has no integration with facial capture, motion capture, I got it so I can try and play beat saber on PC (because of better mod support) and lo and behold the connection is terrible so I had to buy the same game a second time through the meta store because steam, discord, and all the software I commonly use and wanted to use via meta is blocked and I need work arounds (like steam VR or the horribly buggy and battery intensive Oculus direct) just to use my pc with it. I tried to show it to my family and have them try, and after buying more than 100 dollars worth of games and other vr dodads on the meta store, there's nothing worth doing after couple of minutes. The one thing they keep wanting me to do is get on Meta Universe or whatever the new name is that they keep changing to, but that's filled with 9 to 13 year olds, which I guess makes sense considering how this system is absolute trash when it comes to real gaming, pc integration, or working Please just get steam Index or HTV VIVE... every aspect of META 3 has been a dumpster fire, and the worst of all is the fact that the elite strap is not a luxury but a must because the Meta 3 is ACTUALLY unusable without it.

    Easier to use compared to the one it comes with. I feel like they should just make the product with the upgraded strap given how much the system is.

    Jt’s a great fit, but feels a little flimsy and cheap at time, I hear it breaks of set tight enough.

    Does the job fine, it's a little overpriced though. I got it only because it was the only one available to me at the time, I would have gone with a third party strap if they were readily available at launch.

    I couldnt have imagined how far technology could go! When you load into the quest its a totally immersive experience, though a little bit of adjusting to how vr feels youll come to never wanna take the headset off!

    Definitely worth getting this. The original strap for the 3 was ok but bothered my ears. I could justify getting the one worh a battery since i can use one of the power banks i already own but this regular strap is well worth the 70 bucks

    For those who need an upgrade to the original strap and don't trust 3rd party sites then give this head strap a go. It's better than the original strap. But for me this caused a ton of discomfort in the back of my head or the front of my head above my eyebrows giving me the worst headache possible. I'd be messing with it every 20 minutes to relieve the pressure on the front of my head or back of my head. I dealt with it but got a different 3rd party strap instead that's cheaper and WAY more comfortable. Will be returning.

    This makes the gaming experience more comfortable, but the quality isn't great for the price. The gray band detached from the white part after 1 month of use.

    I was hoping it would be more balanced like the version with the battery is, but this didn’t quite do the job. Thankfully it was able to at least provide enough support to eliminate the headaches I was getting with the stock strap. I ended up returning this and getting the Bobovr M3. Not only does it come with a battery pack, but it’s also cheaper and well balanced.
