For today’s review, I am looking at the JSVER Adjustable Head Strap for the Oculus Quest 2.
This headstrap is for those who don’t want to use the headstrap that comes with the Oculus Quest 2, don’t want to fork out the $49 for the Oculus Elite Strap. Also, for those who have a smaller powerbank kept on the rear of the headstrap, so they can recharge their Oculus Quest 2.
This is for those who want an inexpensive headstrap that can be adjusted/tightened for under $30! And that is where the JSVER Adjustable Head Strap for the Oculus Quest 2 comes in.
The first thing I will emphasize in this review, before you install this head strap and this is important. DO NOT try to remove the plastic portion on your Oculus Headset 2 that is connected to the device, because those are your headphones for the Oculus and if you snap it, you broke your Oculus Quest 2. So, with that out of the way, let’s get to the main review.
The first step is that you want to remove the goggle portion on the device and then remove your old head strap. Please be careful when removing your old head strap (yes, I am going to emphasize again)!
The head strap is well-made. The strap on the top is velcro like the original headstrap, which goes through the top portion behind the goggle, so you can easily adjust it.
The next step is now to attach the sides to the side portion of the Oculus Quest 2 and they will snap in. Once you get it on, then adjust the head strap and then turn the dial behind your head (towards the right) and that’s it!
Now, here’s the thing, you will need to have a smaller battery backup/power bank in order to attach it to the rear of the headstrap. I have powerful ones but are too big to fit (unless you replace the velcro straps with bigger ones), so I have to use one of my older, smaller powerbanks to fit.
But overall, the headstrap is fairly easy to install, to use and it works great! Again, just be careful when you remove your oldstrap and if you ever plan to remove this headset. But it fits perfectly on the new Oculus Quest 2 and it works great it preventing floppiness. It’s important to note that the battery holder is optional, so you don’t have to attach it.
I also like the material used and makes it easy to clean. Unlike the original headstrap which people get sweat on and looks disgusting when you see others that have it dirty and brown. So, another reason to get this head strap!
But with the added accessories that help protect the lenses is great to have and makes the JSVER Adjustable Head Strap for the Oculus Quest 2 a great value, especially at under $30!
Highly recommended!
