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.

Meta 3 Elite Head Strap with external battery

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 Comfortable Headstrap

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.

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

COMFORT AND Extended usage: Must have

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!

Good entry headset but do your research….

It’s a great entry level VR headset however there was a lot i wish i had known prior to purchasing….the biggest being that Meta was throwing in the towel on the VR side of their business. That puts a big ? on the future of VR. I’m sure someone will fill the gap though and right now everyone seems to be moving toward the new Steam headset that was just released. There were also a lot of additional expenditures to make it enjoyable such as the elite strap with battery, a longer charging cord to play and charge at the same time, a new headset frame for comfort and better blackout around the mask, rechargeable handset batteries, a stand to hold it when not in use, etc. AND, in order to get access to everything possible, you still need a windows pc that has the specs to run VR. Additionally, i wish i had done a bit more research on headset specs. I might have gone with a 3 vs a 3s. Don’t get me wrong a 3s is great for me as a first headset and just getting into VR…but it turns out the 3 is just a little bit better.

It is the perfect balance between the weight of the meta quest glasses and the rechargeable battery once you install it notice a big difference it feels as if you put on a simple cap because the weight is better distributed and you do not get tired of the face and the range of the battery or talk is phenomenal... thank you very much best buy

Comfortable strap and the ease of adjustment on the back is nice. Additional 2 hours of playtime is just enough. I will say installing the Elite Straps is nerve racking since you have to pop off the plastic cowl at the front of the headset. Plastic and I don't get along, so always think it will break. I initially was going to swap between this and the Elite Strap, but now that I have the Elite Srap w/ battery installed it will be staying there so I don't accidentally break the plastic cowl.

The head-strape makes the unit fit your head more comfortably and I can play much longer without the unit feeling front heavy; it balances the unit on your head.
