H4 Boost Battery Halo Head Strap for Meta Quest 3/3S/Oculus Quest 3, Lightweight Comfortable VR Accessories with Balanced Design, DualFast Charging Headset

If you're new to VR like me, you're probably starting to realise how many extras you're going to need to make the most out of your headset. It also soon becomes clear when reading up about the Quest that the first thing that needs to go is the bundled strap. It really is abysmal. I looked at a lot of options and narrowed it down to this Kiwi H4 and the BoboVR S3, but the Kiwi was on offer for a great price and after digesting lots of reviews I went for this one. It's easy to fit, has plenty of adjustment options and is VASTLY superior to the bundled strap. Super comfortable over long periods and much easier to position for the sharpest visuals that the awful bundled strap. Battery life seems great - between setting up accounts on my headset and playing some games, I was on it for a good 4 hours and it still had plenty of juice left. Charging time if good and if left connected to the main Quest unit it'll charge that too. It's an added expense to an already expensive piece of tech, but absolutely worth it if you want to get the most out of your Quest and enjoy extended laying time.

I’ve done quite a bit of research about better head straps for Quest 3, looked at many options but decided on this Kiwi H4 Boost, and my instincts were right 😀 It came very well packaged, ready assembled to fit to your quest 3 headset. Easy to follow and relatively simple instructions for fitting. Very good quality components, feels strong and premium. There are a few ways to get your perfect fit, take the time to experiment and you will find it! Obviously everyone’s head and facial structure varies in size and shape, this head-strap affords several options to achieve optimal fit. This halo head-strap delivers exceptional comfort and extends your quest 3 battery and use time to at least double. Head strap supports charging the head-strap battery simultaneously with the quest 3 internal battery - saving time and very convenient. And believe me, this takes so much pressure off your face, (no dents or red marks left on your face unlike the stock strap!) you WILL want to stay in VR for way longer - the perfect combo of comfort and long play. I am now so happy to be able to walk around the house in mixed reality mode, I even answer the door with it on and certainly don’t care about the odd looks that I get - that’s how great it is; I don’t want to take it off !!

Touted as the most comfortable halo head strap for the quest 3/3s but in my experience its still uncomfortable. It feels like it's sitting on my head like a crown rather than hugging around the back of my head, maybe I have a big head! My son does find it comfortable though. The price is high given it's quality, the fabric while soft feels cheap and the plastic can be alarmingly flexible at full extension. The top velcro strap is the worst offender, it feels cheap and has only the tiniest bit of velcro at the end. It was easy to setup and does have a wide range of adjustment just not quite enough for my big head. So in summary if your head is normal sized then it's ok, if not then look elsewhere

I've been using the KIWI Design H4 Boost Battery Halo Head strap for a few weeks now with my Meta Quest headset, and it’s hands down one of the best accessories I’ve purchased. Comfort & Fit: The halo design distributes the weight much more evenly across the head compared to the default strap. It takes all the pressure off the face and makes extended VR sessions far more comfortable. The adjustability is excellent, and it fits snugly without being tight. Battery Life: The built-in battery adds a significant amount of playtime — I’ve easily doubled my usage time on a single charge. It’s great for longer sessions without needing to stop and recharge the headset. Plus, the rear battery actually helps counterbalance the front-heavy headset, which improves the overall feel. Build Quality: The head strap feels very sturdy and well-built. The materials are high quality, and everything from the dial to the connectors gives a premium impression. The USB-C passthrough works flawlessly. Setup: Installation was quick and straightforward. Just followed the included instructions and was up and running in minutes. Final Thoughts: If you're serious about VR and find the default strap uncomfortable or limiting, this upgrade is absolutely worth the investment. It’s made my overall VR experience smoother, more immersive, and far less fatiguing.

The battery life is my biggest complaint with the Quest 3, but this sorts that out! Gaming sessions are now longer and there’s no need to double charge both the headset and the powerbank, as you can just charge the powerbank. It is very comfortable and a great design. It fits nicely on the head, has some slight issues when lying down but you just have to adjust the strap correctly. This is definitely value for money but I would class it as a luxury purchase for the Quest 3 and not essential. If you can afford it then great this is amazing!

Its infinitely times better than the original headset. Pros, -no pain on head -Not really heavy -Charge the headset (not sure for how long but they claim 2-3hrs, I suspect 1-2 hours) Cons -It feels quite loose when playing shooting games, you will need to hold the headset when looking down -Its a halo strap so the back bit rest around your crown, it would be nicer if you could move it to the lower part of your head - DOES NOT feel comfy when laying down despite what it is advertised as, there is a massive battery that pushes your head forward, its incredibly uncomfortable laying down - the price seems to vary, i got my for £75 reduce from 95 its a bit pricey imo Overall, I'm happy with the headset, its hard to compare as this is the only 1 I have.

This has to be one of the best on the market for a halo strap. It has weight from the battery but not as much weight as another competing product that has quite a lot crammed into the strap (a 10kmAh battery plus air conditioning!). Therefore providing a little more comfort and less stress on your neck when moving around. As for having a halo strap itself, that itself is a no brainer as it counterbalances the headset on your head, and simply makes it easier to put on and take off, as well as kinda giving you a 'handle' to carry it around the house via. With this halo headset I have Kiwi's own carry case (the huge juggernaut one that looks like an egg) and this fits the headset with halo strap nicely, along with the 2 controllers (with grips) although they need a slight shuffle so they're in place without the triggers being pressed down and hence draining the batteries. The USB-C passes power through although I don't actually use the battery much because I'm only using the Quest 3 for an hour at a time (motion sickness) and hence keep it unplugged and just charge my Quest directly. But it functions very well and can be connected permanently and then the entire thing charged from the USB-C on the battery pack itself. I've had this halo now for 4 months just to add.

If you’re looking to take your Meta Quest 3 experience to the next level, the Kiwi Design H4 Boost Battery Halo Head Strap is an absolute must-have. It’s a day and night difference compared to the standard strap that comes with the headset. Comfort That Lasts Right off the bat, the comfort factor is a game-changer. For someone like me—standing at 6 ft 7 with a boulder for a head—finding a head strap that actually fits well and doesn’t squeeze my skull like a vice is a rarity. Thankfully, this one is super comfortable and forgiving, making long play sessions a breeze. Extended Playtime The built-in battery is a godsend. It dramatically extends playtime, meaning I can stay in VR longer without constantly worrying about charging. No more immersion-breaking interruptions—just more time to enjoy VR the way it’s meant to be played. A Worthy Upgrade Whether you’re into long gaming sessions or just want a more balanced, pressure-free fit, the H4 Boost is worth every penny. The standard Quest 3 strap just doesn’t cut it, and this upgrade makes all the difference. If you’ve got a larger head and need extra comfort, this is one of the best accessories you can get for your Quest 3. Final Verdict: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – A must-buy for serious VR users.
