Unfortunately, the stock straps are terrible. Kind of a must have.

peaches are excellent Meta - Quest 3 Elite Strap - Gray

This is a nice strap but way to big for both of my kids heads.

This product by far exceeds my expectations it’s amazing

Excellent visuals and a giant leap forward from the quest 2

I love it. You will love it. Get one you wont regret it!!

It is worth the price and the quality is amazing..

Way over priced!!! Gives me a headache if you use it more than an hour

Works simliar to the quest 2. Worried it's made from the same material & won't hold up with use (like the quest 2). Time will tell.....

Took a little while to get it to fit correctly, doesn’t cup the back of my head as much as I would like it to.

This strap is good quality but didnt feel good on my head the quest 2 elite strap felt way better

It’s perfect for adults but will not fit kids. My 9 year old, it didn’t fit her.

Bought this for my kids for Christmas. They are always super careful with the VR headset, but within a few months the grey part fell off. There are two tiny screws that are fed from the back and impossible to get back in if they fall out. I tried to return/exchange and was not able to.

My kid loved it but it didnt hold up on wear and tear.

Had a quest 2 with the elite headstrap. that one is not compatible with the quest 3 so had to spend another $70 for this. Quality seems to be better in terms of plastic thickness, but Meta… make ur products backward compatible…..

the base headset strap feels more comfortable since its fabric and this is all plastic around so the weight distrubtion really didn't help for me.

The Meta - Quest 3 Elite Strap is a nice upgrade over the standard strap that comes with the Meta Quest 3 headset. Following are my observations after switching to the elite strap: - It was a pretty easy process to switch out the standard strap that comes with the Meta - Quest 3 headset with the Elite Strap. There are instructions with pictures that come with the Elite Strap to help you swap it out. You just snap out the facial interface from the headset, remove the standard head strap, extend the side straps on the Elite Strap, attach the new side straps, connect the top strap and reinstall the facial interface. - The Elite Strap is a much nicer strap than the standard strap that comes with the Meta Quest 3. The standard strap allows you to manually slide some pieces of the strap on the back of the head to get a better fit, as well as adjust Velcro to secure everything. The Elite Strap provides better, more solid plastic side strap pieces and has a dial control feature that sits behind a padded piece which sits on the back of your head. The dial allows you to automatically crank the side straps in or out to tighten or loosen the headset. When you get it to the comfortable fit on the sides, then you just tighten the one top Velcro strap to fit your head. Once this is done, then you can just use the dial to loosen and tighten it when taking it off or putting it on. After the initial set up, it is much easier to adjust to your liking each time you use it without adjusting the Velcro on top. - With the original head strap, I found I was getting my hair caught in the Velcro and in the back pieces that slide in and out to adjust it, plus if I was doing an activity such as using a fitness app, the sliding straps on the back of the standard strap would move and loosen up. With the Elite Strap, I have not had any issues getting hair caught in the strap and once you have the dial set to your liking, the strap does not loosen up when using the headset for an active program where you are moving around. The Elite strap just feels more secure when moving around and it is definitely more comfortable to wear. The Meta Quest 3 Elite Strap is a nice upgrade over the standard strap that comes with the unit.

The Elite Strap for the Meta Quest 3 addresses two of the biggest shortcomings of the base headset when you’re demoing or sharing the device: it replaces the cloth fabric rear headstrap with a silicone rubber interface that’s much easier to clean, and the head size adjustment is reduced to a simple dial at the rear and a single, easy to use strap along the top. It’s intuitive and simple to understand, which speeds up setup switching from user to user. A very nice touch is that the strap can be tightened just by pressing the rear towards the headset, spinning the adjustment dial automatically and clicking into place at each step. The change in ergonomics from the cloth headstrap are noticeable. First, the contoured silicone pad spreads pressure on the back of the head, allowing a tighter and more secure fit without feeling uncomfortable - useful for fast-paced action games. Second, this creates a much wider “anchor” point for the headset to pull against, which results in a more even distribution of weight from the headset and greatly reduces the front-heaviness felt when in use. I wouldn’t say it’s at the level of the Elite Strap with Battery, however - the lack of a counterweight still means it’s reliant on the grip at the back of your head to prevent pulling down on your face. It’s still quite the improvement. The only things I don’t like about the Elite Strap are the packaging, which is fairly large and wasteful for such a simple plastic device, and the steep asking price for what it is. I would recommend the Elite Strap with Battery instead, since it extends playtime significantly while being more comfortable than this model due to its counterbalancing effect, but if you’re simply looking for a quick way to share a Quest 3 among friends and family, the Elite Strap meaningfully improves that experience. Recommended.

Really expensive and other stuff out there for alot cheaper.

The Quest 3 Elite Strap might not seem like a necessity if you are using your Quest 3 for minimal activity apps and games, but if you are using the Quest 3 for exercise or like very active games than you are going to want to get this additional strap. It offers so much more stability over the stretchy included straps. The included strap just slips over your head and only has the top velcroed strap to use for adjusting the fit. It is light and does accommodate a lot of different hair styles but it lakes the stability and confidence one needs for the more active apps and games out there. The Elite strap uses a thick plastic band that goes around the sides and back of the Quest 3. The Straps pop on and off the sides of the unit, and it only takes a couple minute to change out the straps. No special tools are needed for any purpose during the swap out. The top band is a quality fabric strap with a rubber coated velcro hook end. The end slides right into the top slot above the nose bridge on the Quest 3 and is quickly returned by the contour of the slot. At the back of the strap is a rubber cradle that helps to further secure the Quest 3 around your head. It is a somewhat thick but soft rubber and seems very sturdy. At the outside back of the strap is a dial. This dial expands the strap when turned counter clockwise and contracts the strap when turned clockwise. When you turn it clockwise, it clicks as it ratchets into place, providing the most secure fit you are going to get with one of these VR headsets. Overall the quality is great and the tighter more secure feeling works out great for the higher intensity games and apps.
