Amazon.com.au:Customer reviews: Oculus Quest 2 Elite Strap With Battery and Carrying Case for Enhanced Comfort and Playtime in VR

Top positive review

Enhances usability and comfort at substantial cost

Reviewed in Australia on 8 February 2021

Improves the comfort of the Quest 2 by balancing it out. Sits much better on your noggin and is far easier to adjust and get on and off. The added battery life is great and also helps this balancing act.

This is the fit that you should ideally get out of the box with the Quest 2. It is an expensive addition but unfortunately I find it necessary. It just shouldn't cost this much.

The case is ok. The zipper tie is a joke and I can see it breaking off, making it extremely difficult to open/close the recessed zip. Case is nice and sturdy and the controllers fit in well too.

I also feel that fitting the Quest 2 in the case with the glasses spacer attached makes it too tight on the facial interface material where it rubs up against the plastic partition for the controllers. This means I don't use the case for day to day storage but would use it for travel.

Shipping time on this was abysmal.

Broke during proper use. Do not buy outside the US

Reviewed in Australia on 30 January 2021

It appears that this product is known to break during use. The arms of the head strap appears to crack and break. I contacted Oculus support and they told me they couldn't replace it because it is not available in my region. So I am sending it back to Amazon Australia for a full refund. Do not buy first party oculus accessories through amazon.

Essential for extended play sessions but a little pricey

Compared to the elastic strap this is an absolute dream and I would say is essential is you find the stock headset heavy. The battery gives a couple of extra hours play time and really balances out the headset. I would say it probably doubles the weight but as it is balanced you will not notice any difference. I hope in Quest 3 they take the battery out of the front completely as it makes no logical sense but that's another story. I really want to give this 4 stars as the price is just a little too high but I guess we are still the early adopters of this tech so cant really complain. If you have a Quest 2 I would say this is essential for sessions of longer than 30mins. The price sucks but bite the bullet and you wont regret it I don't think. There were also rumours of these breaking but in my experience I cant see this happening unless you were to stand on the arm(s) with some force. Build quality is really nice.

The first thing you need to buy when owning a Oculus Quest 2

The Elite Strap With Battery should be standard for any Oculus Quest 2 owner, it's better than the head straps the quest came with and extends gameplay, especially beneficial when you're passing the headset around with a group of friends. I know some people had the strap break on them, I haven't had that issue, it's been solid for me since I bought it 6 months ago.

Not essential but good to have.

Is a good combo of the extra battery and the head strap with a quality hard case all in one. Was a luxury purchase definitely not a need the oculus has a good battery life as it is But it's definitely great to have. I'm surprised how long I play beat Saber for but this will ensure the battery never runs out on you. Cos if it does... You need the break

Battery died, Oculus will not replace.

The battery died within the warranty period, but Oculus will not replace under warranty as the product isn't available in Australia.

If you're in Australia, or another country where this isn't available officially from Oculus, then be aware that you're out of luck if it breaks.

Excellent Strap.

Some people have been problems with straps breaking on the sides but to date we have had no problems with our two, the battery addition gives you a good amount of play time without having to recharge.

It might not break overnight, but it will happen.

Had this since early December, treated it well, kept in case when not in use. Finally snapped the other day. Replacement coming in courtesy of Australian Consumer Laws.
