This product was just what I was looking for! It certainly does its job. Provides greatly improved comfort, and doubles the lifespan of the Quest 3! When you plug it into your headset it recalculated the battery percentage to reflect the capacities of both the headset and the strap. Super handy! I’ve had no issues whatsoever with this product

The Meta Quest 3 Elite Strap has been a game-changer for me. Right off the bat, I found it to be incredibly light and much more comfortable than the default strap that comes with the Quest 3. The ergonomic design really shines during extended play sessions — I no longer feel that annoying pressure on my face, and the strap distributes the weight evenly across the back of my head. It’s easy to adjust thanks to the dial on the rear, which ensures a snug fit without being too tight.
One of the best features for me is how it lets me play longer without discomfort. The stability it offers means the headset stays put, even when I move around actively. It’s great knowing I can dive into immersive experiences without needing frequent breaks to relieve face pressure or adjust the fit.
Overall, the lightweight comfort and improved fit make the Meta Quest 3 Elite Strap a worthy upgrade

Quest 3 Elite strap with battery

The Quest 3 Elite Strap has been a great upgrade for me. It feels much more comfortable and sturdy compared to the standard strap. The built-in battery pack is a game changer since it gives me extra playtime during longer sessions. I use it all the time when hanging out with friends or jumping between different games. It works great as a first battery source before switching over to the headset’s built-in battery, which really helps extend how long I can stay in VR. And if I ever need more power, I can always plug in while using it. Overall, it’s been an awesome addition that really improves the experience.

They seem to have fixed the issue that caused these to fail when they were first reviewed. Connects easily, headset shows charge of headset at extended battery. I never had much trouble with comfort on the default strap, but this seems to be a minor upgrade from that, and less wobbly.
This headset, unlike a lot of 3rd party battery straps, does fit in the official carrying case, if you happen to have one of those.
If you turn the headset off, be sure and disconnect the extended battery, because otherwise the headset will drain the battery passively. Meta support says that headset and battery have overcharge protection and recommend leaving it plugged in when not in use.
The big negative here, as will all official Meta Quest accessories, is that it is wildly overpriced compared with 3rd party options. If you don't need to fit a specific case, I'd recommend looking for something well reviewed from another manufacturer.

Surprisingly light, and works very well. The only suggestion is leave it unplugged when not in use. The headset will slowly drain the battery. Other than that, good product.

Incredible Upgrade – Best Standalone VR Headset Ye

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The Meta Quest 3 is a huge step forward from previous generations. The clarity is immediately noticeable — everything looks sharper, cleaner, and more immersive thanks to the improved resolution and processing power. The passthrough is surprisingly good and makes mixed reality actually useful instead of just a gimmick.
Setup was fast and easy, and being completely wireless makes a massive difference for comfort and freedom of movement. Performance is smooth, loading times are quick, and games feel more responsive compared to older headsets. The 512GB storage is a big plus — plenty of room for games, apps, and updates without constantly managing space.
Comfort is improved, though longer sessions may still benefit from an upgraded strap. Battery life is decent for standalone VR, and the controllers feel accurate and well balanced.
Overall, this is the best standalone VR headset available right now and absolutely worth the upgrade if you’re coming from a Quest 2 or jumping into VR for the first time

This is a great addition and i dont think personally if one is buying tje meta 3, this is not included. Meta 3 headset gives you 2hrs and this strap and pack adds another 2 hrs. If you really use your VR, must buy this. Trust me you will appreciate the value! This strap can be charged on the charger stand, if you have charging stand, with both VR and battery pack strap installed on VR, at the same time. Its comfortable to use, dial up adjust and also laying down you dont feel any issues if just watching something! Must have product!

Solid headset and WAY ALOT comfortable than the default stock that came with the Quest 3. Honestly this should of been bundled with the Quest 3 when you're paying for a premium price for this unit. The added battery adds extra hours to play on and i also purchase an Anker 30Watt 20,000mah power brick which gives it even more play time! Overall this headstrap is the best when it comes to comfort.

With battery powered electronics with substantial compute (like the Meta Quest 3) battery life will always be something to care for. However the first reason to get this batter strap, is that it makes the Meta Quest 3 more comfortable! The extended batter acts as a counter balance to the main glasses. Between the comfort and the extra playtime, this is a must have!
