I have reviewed numerous cases for the Quest 2 and cases for other VR-related headsets, but one that I have been excited for is the DESTEK OC1 Carrying Case for the Quest 2.
While a bit pricey at under $100, aesthetically and what it does, makes you want to consider owning one.
For one, it’s a sturdy case, that will no doubt protect your Quest 2.
Second, it’s one of the coolest looking cases designed for the Quest 2, with its see through blue panel and you notice the LED lights for charging and the handle to hold the case. The case on the outside has a charging port and the case comes with a long cable plus an adapter in which a USB cable can plug into it.
Third, it’s double charging. You get a magnetic charger that goes into the charging port and connects magnetically and charges. It does come with a steel remover, in case you have a hard time of wanting to take the charger out of the port. But it’s good to note that it comes with one.
I have used magnetic chargers for the Quest for the charging docking stations, but they never come with the remover. So, that’s great it comes with the case.
Fourth, I use a third party quest strap that has a rechargeable battery in the rear. Well, there is a cable right behind that can charge the battery backup on your Elite strap. Again, another great addition to have. Double charging for the front and the rear.
And fifth, one of my concerns is that my elite strap with my headset may not fit. But I was able to place it with my Elite Strap with the charging battery in the rear, line up the headset to charge and zip up the case with no problems what so ever.
The case is literally built to hold your headset and your two controllers and it works just great!
Now is it perfect? For the most part, it does a lot more than what my other Quest 2 cases have offered. Great protection, double charging and it looks quite stylish and cool.
But I would like an extra few inches, may it be width or height, this would be used to hold things in a pocket, may it be batteries or other accessories. One of the things I often have to carry are extra facial interfaces and foam, because if I want to introduce people to VR, I don’t like to mix my foam/facial interface with others, so to have that extra space to hold things, would be great.
But that is just a suggestion of coming up of an ideas of what can make things better.
The other one is to offer the case in various colors instead of gray/blue, perhaps black/blue or even just offering varieties outside of blue, may it be purple, red, green, yellow, pink, orange, etc.
But other than that, this is a wonderful case for the Quest 2 and my go to favorite.
Sure, the under $100 price of the DESTEK OC1 Carrying Case for the Quest 2 may be out of the price range for some, but for those who want true protection but also a case that can charge your Quest and the strap rechargeable battery, I definitely recommend this case!
