2.0 out of 5 starsUpdate - Better than OEM strap but NOT the best option for all Games on Quest.

March /2021 Update
So after using this head strap for few months came back and dropped another 2 stars.
Major issue, with this strap attached the gear cannot fit in ANY Gear case whether on Amazon or Best Buy. I tried and returned over 5 cases on Amazon. This strap is NOT meant to come off and on easily.
Next major issue is cheapness of the construction - the plastic makes alot of creaking and cracking noises and always sticks when trying to adjust and make micro adjustments for good NON-blurry fit. The head gear with a snug fit becomes ucomfortable after 40 min of game play or 20-30min when playing more active/aerobic games. Not good if any in the house are prone to migraines or headaches. While still better than the original in the box, quest strap, we replaced it with the Quest 2 Elite strap which was another night and day improvement over this strap. I no longer would recommend this strap as the Quest 2 Elite is DEFINITELY worth waiting for.

Dinged one star as I wish the instructions on taking apart the Quest2 OEM headset were clearer, (almost damaged the headset) as well as instructions on using the dial. twist clockwise to tighten, "pull out" on the dial and twist counter clockwise to loosen!! Other than that this headset was "game “changer for our house. We are family of 4 and Quest 2 is a favourite for all members. Adjusting the OEM head gear between kid, teen, adult, larger adult between uses was cumbersome. This makes the adjustments and comfort fine tuning to mere seconds. The headset is very comfortable for long durations of play which in our house is max of 30-40min before it’s the next person's turn. With this new head gear, the quest2 does not fit into the carrying case we bought so looking for new one.
