    A must have for the Quest 3. Significantly more comfortable than the original strap. Easy to install, just snap the existing side pieces off and this snaps right on. The adjustment wheel is simple to use and quickly gets the tension correct on the headset. The top strap is simple to adjust via velcro and helps distribute the weight well.

    If you want make the Quest 3 a bit more comfortable it does a good job. Something like the BOBOVR might be more comfortable and at a comparable price. However, this does have the advantage of being, lighter, more compact and easier to travel with.

    The Quest Elite Strap for the S3 is a game changer. It makes the headset way more comfortable, especially for longer sessions. I honestly didn’t think it would make that much of a difference but it really does. Totally worth getting if you want to enjoy the headset without any neck strain.

    For me this elite strap is a game changer for playing VR. I feel its alot more comfortable and keeps the headset more secure to my head. I also feel that it balances the weight of the headset and it doesnt feel so front heavy. Great purchase, definitely a must buy for the meta quest.

    Highly recommended strap for long working or gaming sessions. Helps balance out the weight of the quest. And makes it easier to put on! I actually really like the elite strap with battery though mainly because of extra battery life and perfected balance

    Expensive but worth it. Extremely comfortable and better than the original that ships with the headset. The headset that comes with the quest 3 puts a lot of pressure on the brow and this one corrects that and is extremely comfortable with the original I had maybe 15 minutes of playtime before it became too uncomfortable and I had to take it off. This upgrade makes it so much more comfortable I can go for hours and be fine. Drawback is that it shouldn't cost this much or should have been a part of the actual headset. If you're going to get the quest 3 which is an incredible product, it blew me away and I work in VR, I strongly suggest you get this for comfort sake.

    A decent upgrade to the laughable thong that comes with the Meta Quest 3s. Definitely more comfortable and secure, however it suffers from a terrible design flaw being the tiny T4 screw that connects the skull cradle to the adjustable strap. It comes loose and falls apart at every inopportune moment while using the MetaQuest. There are better alternatives to this at almost half the price.I recommend this if its the only alternative available to you, if not look elsewhere.

      Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review!

      We're so glad that you and your child have been loving the the fit of your new Quest Elite strap and that gaming has been maxed out with it!

      We should advise that our headsets are made for users aged ten and up with users between the ages of ten and twelve needing a guardian account managing them and so we would recommend ensuring the accounts are set correctly just to avoid any issues in future! oculus

    I have had several ersions of the Meta and have gotten the Elite Headband with every version. It improves clarity by holding the device in one spot. Giving you the stability you'd want for a longer UX.

    Not much to it. Genuinely the best feeling strap for the Quest 3 compared to 3rd party vendors. Only downside is this thing should be the default strap for Quest 3. $70 on top of a $500 headset is absolute highway robbery

    The MetaQuest 3 elite strap works very well. We do not feel any discomfort or weight hanging on the front of our face because the strap clicks into place and holds it in good position. Highly recommended.

    This accessory improves the usability of the Quest 3 exponentially. Putting it on and off is a breeze and the headset stays put even in action games. Adjustments are easy. This should be part of the Quest default package.

    Expensive, but drastically improves comfort of the Quest 3. In hindsight and especially as I've used this more, I wish I had bought the strap with the battery pack as the counterweight would make a difference.

    While the price is a bit high, this strap is much more comfortable than the included head strap. The center of gravity is moved a bit and I’m able to play for longer, with much less tension.
