BOBOVRM2+ Head Strap Compatible with Quest2,Replacement for Elite Strap,Reduce Face Pressure Comfortable Touch

My Quest 2 elite strap developed microcracks and broke so I went searching for an alternative while waiting on a new strap (they extended the warranty to 2 years because of this issue). After watching video reviews and reading about my options I landed on this Halo Strap.First impressions: Nice packaging and the product is very aesthetically pleasing. Feels like an Oculus product and fits the Quest 2 extremely well. The "arms" slide on instead of clipping which I honestly prefer, as the clip-on method of the elite strap makes me feel like I'm going to break something.When adjusting for comfort, I found it a little more difficult to reach a "sweet spot" than the elite strap but it does end up fitting REALLY well when you do. The elite strap simply smushes on to your face (pressing in the facial interface to your forehead and cheeks) while this strap uses large cushions to clamp your upper forehead and lower skull. Because of how large the cushions are, this pressure felt less intense than that of the elite strap. For longer sessions, I think the BOBOVR M2 might be a winner.Here's where the elite strap is better- fast movements or uncommon positions. If you're playing a fast paced game, I find the elite strap to have a more secure hold (especially with the Velcro strap tightened). Don't get me wrong, the M2 fits very securely, but it's more prone to shifting when turning your head quickly or making any kind of rapid movements. Also, the M2 doesn't do incredibly well when looking straight downwards. And this really isn't something anyone needs to do very often in VR. I'm just mentioning it because it's one of the few times I found the M2 to feel somewhat uncomfortable.To sun it up, the BOBOVR M2 is a great value and a very comfortable halo-style strap for the Quest 2. I would recommend to anyone looking for an upgrade over the original Quest strap (the terrible cloth one) or an alternative to the elite strap.When my new elite strap comes in the mail, I'll update my review as to whether or not the M2 stays my "primary" strap for gaming. As of now I think it will!

I have an Oculus quest 2 that I mainly use for the Supernatural app. I had purchased an adapter that attaches to the origional straps for added support. I needed to add a counter balance with an external battery for added comfort. But with this, OMG, total game changer.Pros: You can wear it comfortably with high intensity games. I wore it for a 32 minute monster work out (a lot of movement) and it held strong and was very comfortable. It has improved my VR experience ten fold.Cradles your head comfortably. I know someone put in a review that you need to attach a counter balance in the back for added support, but it's not necessary. All you have to do is make sure the back is placed low enough on your head and adjust accordingly. If you'd like to add an external battery to lengthen game play then thats a different need.It is easy to install and a breeze to put on.If you have long hair and like to wear it up you can!! Without the center support strap ofcourse.Glasses can be worn and it doesn't bother the fit of it at all.Cons:Fits cases designed for elite straps, but you have to shrink the head size everytime you put it in the case.I would like be to be able to adjust the top nubs that go on your head, just incase you have a friend with a big forehead.It is hard to fit an external battery on it due to the adjustment knob on the back.Overall, thank you for your cleaver design!! I am anxiously waiting the new ventilated face adapter!!! Honestly this product has made my Oculus better!!

My second purchase of this model. There is a weak point and the thin adjustable plastic can crack and break.

I found this BOBOVR head strap to be much more comfortable than the original Q2 strap included in the box mostly because it does provide a much more stable fit and relieves facial pressure when properly adjusted. However, the first several times I used it I had a difficult time fine-tuning the head strap every single time and it would eventually also become uncomfortable after only a few minutes. I recently decided to try using my Quest 2 with the eyeglasses spacer just to see if it would help at all and possibly provide a better and more comfortable fit. To my surprise, simply by adding the glasses spacer, the entire headset has become much more comfortable and tolerable and I don't need to fidget with it at all. If you are experiencing similar issues with your Q2 even while using this strap, I suggest trying to add the glasses spacer even if you don't wear glasses. This might just do the trick as it did for me. I gave this strap 4 stars because even though it's very well built, looks and feels high quality, and makes the Quest 2 look even more impressive I still found the Quest 2 uncomfortable to wear after a short time and difficult to adjust every time I put it back on as adjustments often created either too much pressure on the back of my head or still too much pressure on my face. However in my case simply adding the glasses spacer, has made a huge difference, I only wish it would have felt this comfortable right out of the box.

Good head strap, works well and comfortable.

Honestly, I really really love it. Fits my head well. Feels mighty secure on my cranium. It's hella comfortable (I've been crushing 4 - 5 hour sessions in demeo and have zero complaints on how the headset feels over that length of time. I have no complaints.

The strap that comes with the headset is so woefully bad, this halo strap balances the weight much better and is so much more comfortable

Arrived next day. Install was easy and quick. I can now wear my quest for hours instead of minutes.

Not sure how people have been trying to wear this - but follow the instructions and its an excellent fit .Really comfy and seems strudier than a lot of other options.

Way better then the built in strap gives way more support while taking lots of pressure off the face, once the battery strap model restocks I will get one right away 5/5
