The Best Quest 3 Head Strap? - KIWI Design Comfort Head Strap Review

This is the kiwi elite style comfort head strap for the quest 3 and from the top spoiler alert this is a great quest 3 headstrap to help make your quest 3 more comfortable, and less fatiguing. Right now it is on sale for $30 on amazon, which is pretty hard to beat considering the official elite headstrap is $70 I’m sorry but that is just ridiculous .

Inside the box you’ll find the durable and flexible head strap along with the thick foam padding that hugs your skull and the top of your head like a loving crablet from boneworks. Seriously though That padding is a massive upgrade over the official meta elite strap which feels more like a styrofoam cup on the back of your head. Just like the quest 2 version you first snap the upgraded padding onto the back of the strap making sure you line up the right and left sides and push in until you hear the click. Next up take the facial cover off your quest and run the strap through the little slit in the top middle of your headset. This took some effort but I found shifting side to side and pushing forward finally got the strap over the hump if you will…From here you can snap the now assembled headstrap on to the corresponding sides on your quest 3 and now your quest will feel like a dream on your head, due to the padding but also how the weight is more evenly distributed over your skull rather than all on the front of your face with included meta cloth strap. All I can say is, this is absolutely worth the upgrade over the stock cloth strap. The comfort strap for the quest 2 was and is still my daily driver and KIWI has great customer support and in my experience with them has always produced quality products. I left an affiliate link down below and again right now you can get it for 25% on amazon. So if you have the side cash this will not disappoint. Oh and by the way kiwi has these sweet little controller straps which I’ll make another video on here shortly.

Yes Kiwi did send me this heads trap as review unit but they have no control over what I say. Now of course I haven’t tried every random head strap from amazon for the quest 3 so I can’t say this one is the absolute best and that would be subjective due to how all skulls are not built the same but this one in my time with it is a great upgrade for quest 3 as well as the quest 2 version. Plus a battery version is hitting amazon december 13th. Let me know if you are going to get one of these straps and thanks again for watching I’ll catch you in the next quickie!
