Razer has a variety of gaming {hardware} and equipment: It is now within the Meta Quest 2 VR accent enterprise, too. The primary Meta Quest 2-compatible strap and face plate have simply arrived after being introduced at CES in Las Vegas earlier this 12 months. Attempting them each at residence, I am cautiously a fan (of the strap, at the least).

The corporate has partnered with ResMed for the strap design and manufacturing course of, which pursuits me as a result of Resmed occurs to make the CPAP machine I take advantage of each evening. CPAP machines require head straps to get these awkward air masks on and match snugly however comfortably. An analogous objective’s at play right here, however for the VR headset in your face.

Razer’s strap matches snugly, for positive (at the least on my face), however rests otherwise than the usual elastic Quest 2 straps. After adjusting the Velcro on the perimeters and the highest strap, the design permits you to sort of simply decrease the headset over your face like a big VR baseball cap. At first, it feels just like the again assist will not maintain, however it does. It feels rather less fussy, as soon as arrange, but provides sufficient snugness that it must be good for intense periods of Beat Saber.

I do want the straps had just a little extra give, however possibly that is simply me. Or possibly, very like CPAP straps, the elastic, padded strap system will finally break in and be extra fitted to my head.

I additionally let my 14-year-old son use it to play Beat Saber. (He is turn into a VR professional fairly quick.) He advised me it matches properly however just a little weirdly: He too felt that the headset was virtually unusually balanced on his head. However when you recover from feeling just like the headset might topple over after which notice it will not, it truly turns into very comfortable. However in intense Beat Saber Professional Plus songs, he felt prefer it was a bit much less safe than the usual Quest 2 strap.

Razer additionally has a silicone face masks insert that is designed to exchange the froth padded one on the Quest 2. (Meta has its personal silicone foam cowl included with new Quest 2 {hardware}.) I am much less enthused about this one. Initially, the common Quest 2 silicone-covered padding works tremendous for me. As well as, Razer’s insert appeared to make my glasses fog up extra. Possibly it has a tiny bit much less air flow? I do not know. I choose much less intense padding in my VR headset to assist accommodate my thick glasses anyway. It does appear to dam out extra gentle, and Razer guarantees it is extra antibacterial and sweat-resistant. 

There’s additionally the value to contemplate. The strap prices $70, and the face plate prices $70 too. Contemplating your entire Quest 2 prices $400, that is so much to put money into extras. There’s nothing actually unsuitable with the included Quest 2 strap that comes within the field, which is free. However Razer’s additional stage of consolation might be value it should you’re prepared for one thing else.

What pursuits me much more than these present Razer Quest 2 merchandise, although, is what comes subsequent. Razer plans to be an ongoing accent maker for Meta now and can proceed its partnership with ResMed. Will that imply Quest three equipment within the fall? Might it will definitely imply controllers? Or different gaming equipment or VR-compatible peripherals? I might like to see what’s on deck. This is not a foul begin.
