    Was unsure to go for this or the alternatives after reading reviews but took the gamble.
    People must have had a bad batch or be ripping it off their head as it works great and no signs of snapping.
    Adds hours onto your gaming time allowing you to carry on playing.
    The charge port is located under the battery which is a bit annoying but have it on a shelf and the cable running down.
    The adjustable strap mechanism is great for keeping it secure on your head especially for sharp movements.
    Ignore the reviews and get this if you want the original strap but the alternatives seem good also depending on your budget.

    This head strap is a must, as the standard one that you get when purchasing an oculus isn’t comfortable at all and digs into your head after a short while. This is far more comfortable and can be simply adjusted using a turntable disc on the back. The extended battery power is also a must for those who want to spend some time playing.

    I had the Quest 2 headset for a few days before ordering this and found the standard issued straps awkward to put on and take off with my glasses and it eould keep slipping no matter how much I played around with them but this is leaps and bounds better. I can only assume it is not included with the headset as a cost cutting thing

    The elite strap makes using the quest 2 massively more comfortable, I’ve owned my quest for just over a year now (boxing day 2021) and I had never once played it long enough for the battery to go flat purely because it would get uncomfortable long before that. Now I’ve got the elite strap I wish I’d gotten it long ago at the same time as the headset itself, because it’s completely unbelievable the difference it makes, plus it’s much easier to adjust the fitting of this strap in my honest opinion.

    The case looks very nice. Well made. Can’t compare to any other as it’s the only one I have. I have an elite strap (made by Kiwi) and the hand straps (threw them controllers too many times!) and it’s quite difficult to get the zip all around. It’s just a little fatter than the box. That said, it’s quite possible to stuff all the things they promise in.
    4.5/5 since it costs 15-20 quids more than the competition.

    I bought this more for the comfort of the strap rather than the battery (though the longer battery life makes a huge difference too). I have only had my Quest 2 a month or two but in that time I struggled to play for more than half an hour because of the throbbing headaches I’d get from having the headset strapped tightly to my face. With this elite strap, that issue has now gone. With the support at the back which moulds around your head and the dial to tighten or loosen the strap you can now easily have it sat snuggly around your head without being too tight, and no more headaches!

    I would say that this should really be part of the base headset. It’s much sturdier than just the strap and the weight of it counterbalances the weight of the headset so it feels much less like it’s pulling down on the front of your face. It’s a little pricey for what it is but it does make a huge difference.

    I managed to buy this on offer, but now having seen and touched it, it’s well-worth the full price.

    Surprisingly compact and well designed, with even the zipper line being mostly hidden.

    Extremely tough and rigid, but light and nice to the touch.

    Inside it’s similar, with simple design and well crafted moulded rigid plastic. Everything sits well and holds the headset and controllers snuggly.

    Perfect for the extra play time and feels just as good as the quest headset, not as convenient as cheaper headsets that can easily slip on and off without having to twist the rear control to release and tighten, this becomes an issue when other people use it, as it cups the back of the head, they risk breaking it by yanking it off, still best option for extra battery

    When I first looked at this item the price seemed a bit steep! It was to accompany an Oculus as a Christmas gift. After already spending 400 on the Oculus itself I was slightly out off spending another 50.

    However, spending that 50 was worth it as it’s was a great gift. The receiver was able to unpackage their Oculus and put it straight into this case.

    It’s a high quality item and looks very classy. My only issue was I would of appreciated a picture of how the Oculus went into the case. I did have to Google it!

    I’ve seen some criticism of the official elite strap but for me it’s been brilliant.

    A much more comfortable fit than the original strap, quick and easy to tighten and pretty solid.

    I’ve been using it for Months now and it’s still going strong.

    I don’t know why the elite strap isn’t the standard strap it’s such a massive improvement over the fabric one that comes with the quest 2 holds the whole thing on your head so much better you can look down without it trying to fall off and the extra up to 2 hours of play time is great and with the extra weight it has it provides a nice little bit of counter weight on the back of your head to off set the ques

    Title says it all really. This strap really is a must have, makes it a lot more comfortable to play and enjoy

    Definitely an improvement on the standard strap and makes the weight distribution of the headset more even.

    Easy to put on and take off as it has a dial to loosen the headset at the back. A small part of me still firmly believes this elite strap should have been part of the original headset, as its unfair to make consumers pay extra for a strap to fix the inadequacies and flaws of the original headse

    Not sure what people are doing to these head straps to make them snap the way they do, i’ve had mine for over a year and its still like brand new.

    Seen a few videos of people literally bending and abusing these and they still don’t break! It must be a bad batch or some poor QC in the plastic that’s being used to make these.

    The strap which comes with it, although adequate was proving a bit annoying for the kids to adjust for their varying head sizes. This has solved all of that and its much comfier as well. Annoyed it took me so long to find out this even existed.

    Easy to swap out, much better fit. Personally its a no brainer.

    I wanted the case and the extended battery life which this package gave me. Battery life for the headset if easily over 3 hours and up to 4 most of the time now which means I don’t come to use it on an evening to find it dead as the kids have been having a go during the day.

    The case is nice and compact and holds all the parts that matter.

    I upgraded the strap from the non battery elite strap and the bonus I have found is, that although the battery adds weight, the weight of the battery balances the headset so it actually feels more comfortable on the head and the pressure on the face is much less. I find myself reaching to adjust the headset far less often.

    I wasn’t sure about spending so much on this strap but it seems well worth it, I no longer have to keep adjusting it to fit different heads and as I wear glasses it’s so much easier to put on and remove the headset. Just turn the dial at the back and tilt the headset upwards and it’s so easy to lift off.

    A vast improvement over the stock strap..Altho the price is Disgusting for what it is and the honest truth is this is the quality of strap that should come as standard on a 300+ game machine..
    Sheer profiteering nothing less!

    If you are going to be using a Quest 2 on a fairly regular basis, you need this for comfort and ease. I stream VR games at least once a week, the elite strap is much more comfortable and user friendly. I can tilt my headset up for a moment to see the real world and it won’t fall back down, the turn handle to tighten and loosen is easy to use and have found I get a much better fit.

    Highly recommended if you have a oculus quest 2. This is a must to have with i

    Good length, very flexible, works very well with link on my quest 2. That said it is pretty absurdly priced and you can apparently make do with a cheaper third party cable just as well. Went for this as I didn’t want to compromise.

    The only thing wrong with the item is no free USB, They tell you to buy Oculus cable because the wire better and they couldn’t put a free USB in there. Not many computers have a USB-C . This is what you find on most computers – – HDMI x 1
    – DisplayPort x 1
    – DVI x 1

    Purchased this for my son’s Christmas at his request to enhance the experience of his new Oculus Rift Quest 2 bundle. He was delighted and says it allows so much more freedom to move around while in game and it works brilliantly so was certainly worth paying the extra money for a cable. Highly recommend.

    I’m really glad I bought this case. The Oculus Quest 2 is an expensive piece of kit, and I was keen to get a rugged case that I knew would be protecting my investment. Needless to say, this case delivers the protection I was after. It’s a hard shell with appropriately sized compartments to hold the headset, the two controllers, and the charging cable.
    Sometimes when I’m lowering the headset in, it does feel like the foam surrounding the eyepieces is getting caught on the hard plastic interior of the case, but this is a minor comment.

    Excellent carry case. Light weight keeps my Oculus in great condition, stops it from any damage, great fit. Would recommend any one thinking of buying it, great value for money.

    While not as comfortable as PSVR’s halo strap, this is still a massive step up from the elasticated nylon OG strap. Ostensibly, it clamps the Quest 2 to one’s face, to provide an optimal VR viewing experience – if not always the most comfortable one. 50 is taking the proverbial, though! It should be included as standard to the absurdly cheap headset so one doesn’t feel like they’re being rinsed on accessories

    I successfully managed to put my Quest 2, the controllers, the charging cable, the charger with EU power adapter and the official link cable into it.

    The only negative thing I could say about this case is the zipper design, which can get stuck and it’s not that easy to open/close. But otherwise the case is really good and I’m really happy with it.

    I got this as a carrying case for my sons oculas 2. Nice colour and quality. Does the job and it is good fit to put vr headset and controllers in. I’d like it to be able to fit headset/earphones in but there isnt space for this. Shame really as it’s a nice case and be good to keep it all together.

    Headset and hand controllers fitted ok in to it but I`m waiting for the addon headstrap for it and have read that it may not fit when this is added.

    It’s hold the headset and the controllers. Oh and the charger. Has room for a link cable as well.

    This must be the most premium cable I’ve ever owned and possibly ever will. Does what it says very well albeit at a very high price.

    This is a good strap – but I found the cupping straps at the back to be a bit hard and they did cause discomfort. I fitted the rear strap padding available from VR Covers (Gauss Tech) that they produce for the original Quest.
    The velcro fasteners are not ideally placed, but it stays in place just fine using just the bottom ones and the two together make the Quest 2 extremely comfy.

    Excellent Option - With Padding

    You can get the exact same thing working fine for 21 pounds, just search “5m USB c cable 5gbs” and check their reviews as all of them will have someone saying if it works or not. BTW has to be connected to a USB 3.1 input not just 3.0

    The standard strap is uncomfortable. This Elite strap fixes that, but it is overpriced for what it is and should have been supplied as standard.

    It definitely evens out the weight a bit, but I’ve personally switched back to the original head strap as I find it more comfortable.
