I couldnt imagine going back to the stock strap.
Due to the multiple reports of the elite breaking, I was hesitant in getting the product, but now that I have had it for a bit it is clear how the design is flawed. Pretty much the main thing to avoid when using the elite strap is do not hinge the strap and headset by grabbing the rear and pulling up/down when putting on or taking off the headset. This will put too much stress on the plastic arms, which have no real strength or reinforcement.
My advice is, only put the headset on/off by significantly loosening the strap via the knob and lift off by holding the headset itself. I have been sticking to this and always being cautious on how much stress being placed on the arms and my strap is still break free after months of using it.
Other pros:
- easier to put on vs original strap
- easier to get the headset in the best position for visuals.
- comfort
- better for holding a link cable
Cons:
- weak design requiring caution and care but can prevent breaks if treated right
- can’t really use over ear headphones with the strap
The elite strap does not seem to impact on what head phones you are able to wear as it work well with both my G432 and Hyper X Cloud.
Easy to fit, the design and materials seem study so I don't see this breaking through normal use.

Komfort und Anpassungsfähigkeit:
Die Elite-Riemen sind unglaublich komfortabel. Sie sind aus hochwertigem Material gefertigt, das sich angenehm anfühlt und nicht scheuert oder drückt, selbst bei längeren Spielsessions. Die Möglichkeit, die Riemen individuell anzupassen, sorgt dafür, dass sie fest und sicher sitzen, ohne dass man das Gefühl hat, sie seien zu eng oder zu locker.
Haltbarkeit und Qualität:
Die Verarbeitung der Riemen ist beeindruckend. Sie sind robust und strapazierfähig, was bedeutet, dass man sich keine Sorgen machen muss, dass sie schnell verschleißen oder beschädigt werden. Dies ist besonders wichtig für mich, da ich mein VR-Headset regelmäßig benutze und darauf angewiesen bin, dass meine Ausrüstung lange hält.
Design und Stil:
Das Design der Elite-Riemen ist modern und ansprechend. Sie passen perfekt zum Meta Quest 2 und verleihen ihm eine hochwertige Optik. Die schwarze Farbe und die glatte Oberfläche fügen sich nahtlos in das Gesamtbild des Headsets ein und lassen es noch hochwertiger aussehen.
Verbessertes VR-Erlebnis:
Durch die Verwendung der Elite-Riemen habe ich mein VR-Erlebnis erheblich verbessert. Die stabilere Passform und der erhöhte Tragekomfort ermöglichen es mir, länger zu spielen, ohne dass ich mich unwohl fühle oder Druckstellen entwickle. Dies hat meine Gesamterfahrung mit dem Meta Quest 2 wirklich auf eine neue Stufe gehoben.
Fazit:
Insgesamt bin ich absolut begeistert von den Elite-Riemen für den Meta Quest 2. Sie bieten herausragenden Komfort, exzellente Qualität und ein ansprechendes Design, das perfekt zur Ästhetik des Headsets passt. Wenn Sie Ihr VR-Erlebnis optimieren möchten, kann ich diese Riemen nur wärmstens empfehlen. Sie sind jeden Cent wert!
Simply twist the circle on the rear to either tighten or loosen the headset/head strap. Then to secure the top of your head a simple elasticated Velcro strap.
Definitely needed if you want to have a comfort experience with your Quest.
Malgré les commentaires que j'ai pu lire concernant sa fragilité au niveau des pattes et les risques de casse, je dois dire que je l'utilise depuis plusieurs années sans aucun problème. Je pratique même des jeux en réalité virtuelle qui nécessitent de nombreux mouvements, et elle n'a jamais failli.
En outre, je la trouve plus confortable que la sangle d'origine. Dans l'ensemble, je la recommande vivement.
Unfortunately, after a bit over three months and treating it carefully, avoiding adding too much pressure on it broke. I was not even using it when it happened. I just grabbed the headset to use it (always from the middle band), and it broke in my hand.
Was this a bad batch? A design flaw? A poor choice of material? Not enough testing in QA? A combination of all?
Maybe it was bad luck; who knows.
The idea behind the design is great, and I truly like it. I mean, if it wasn’t for that, it feels comfortable using. I never pushed it because I heard lots of stories like mine after I ordered.
I’ve been using the fabric strap that came with the Oculus, and I have to say it is surprisingly good, and even if it looks more durable than the “elite” version, although it doesn't fit as well as the "elite".
UPDATE:
I contacted Oculus Support, and they offered either a refund or a replacement. As I bought it through Amazon, the refund must be handled by Amazon; but as I like the strap design, I requested a replacement. They emailed me a UPS tag to return the broken strap (so make sure to keep it if you one to go this route and its original box). A few days after, I received confirmation that a new elite strap was sent at no cost, so I want to express thanks to Oculus Support for taking care of this problem.
