Magnets don't need to be as strong, if it's against your face it won't come off. It's easy to take off to clean. In this case switch. It's weird Meta didn't have it magnetic to begin with, it is a pain to take off.
I've got the standard one for my S3 Pro strap & loving it. It was a bit hard to install the base adapter because it was sooo tight, but once in, that baby's not moving! Fortunately i didn't experience any of the problems you did with light bleed or anything popping off on its own. I actually have my Dad's larger British nose so no light bleed from down below either. I'm curious to see what their future enhancements will entail. I purchased directly from the Globular Cluster website as I emailed them to get on the waitlist and they messaged me back when a new batch was ready before being released publicly. And then Thomas followed up after I received it to see how I liked it and get any feedback. Awesome customer service! I wouldn't be surprised if they made any future enhancements available to us existing users at no extra charge either.
I have the halo strap version, and have no issues at all with the adapter clipping properly into the quest or with the magnets being weak. In fact, if anything, the magnets might be a little too strong! The fact that it comes with 3 interfaces that you can swap in seconds is incredibly useful when you are sharing the headset, and the ability to just effortlessly pull the interface off to run it "bare" for MR with a halo strap is also great.
Good sign that they have such good customer service. The fact that they took in feedback and mailed replacement cushions is also a big thumbs up in my book. I was thinking of getting a new interface for my quest 3 and I've already spent an arm and a leg so it'd be nice to keep the rest of my limbs and just go for the Standard edition of this one. I do wear glasses, but plan on getting prescription lenses (there goes my second arm lol). As always, awesome review.
For anyone considering this I just ordered the standard off Amazon and it does have an extra of the small magnets on each side further down than his does in the video. Mine is definitely different so it looks like they changed it. I was confused for a lot of the video because I don't have the issues he was describing untill I saw a close up of the magnets.
@@jaybrattTheir websites product page for the interface also shows a series of updates until 2nd June, where they mention all units shipping out will now be the V2 model. You're a legend for all these reviews, I had to watch this one three times before fonally deciding to bite this bullet. It'll go with my S3 Pro, at least until custom interfaces start shipping overseas. Cheers!
Not regarding this video specifically, but when testing Q3 accessories, could you check them with a pro controller when applicable? Like the golf clubs, stocks, grips that wouldn't occlude the Pro camera lens.
Mainly just run without a facial interface, but something like this with the quick swap magnet base might be good to have for the rare occasion I felt like using one, seems more convenient than fully snapping in or removing an interface to swap and looked like it didn't extend out far enough to interfere with running without one
I have the standard (halo strap) version of this and can confirm that it works very well floating without the interface attached. The adapter that clips into the headset doesn't get in the way at all when there is no interface installed - it sits very flush with the rim of the quest 3. I really like it for this use case, and for sharing the headset with others (being able to swap between 3 interfaces).
I ordered blue face interface with vents from AliExpress and it fits my face to the point of sticking to my face without the headset (like that custom one). I found that silicone is annoy me because of constant sliding. Only problem is that interface is a bit longer, so less fov. And S3 fan not quite blowing inside enough, way less than Bobo's F2 did. It's advertised as glass friendly, so it makes sense. Because it's wider it fits better than stock and no longer destroy my cheekbones.
Your videos are really awesome. I'm getting into VR for the first time (and using my kids as xmas presents to do it😂), and I know almost nothing about it. Watching your videos has helped me tremendously. Thank you! You go into incredible detail with pros and cons and the small stuff that others may not even think about, but they're things that I'll definitely notice and will probably drive me nuts. So, thanks again for this incredible educational content!
Simply because they don't wish to charge an arm and a leg, and they very much seem to care about customer feedback, makes me want to order one. I have their version for the PSVR2, it gave me headaches to be honest. But still, companies like THIS need to succeed.
I currently have the stock and it seems a bit scratchy so I'm wanting to change to a different one, how would you compare this magnetic one with the razer Q3 interface for comfort? as I don't live in the US the custom facial scan one is not an option.
Is the standard one okay with the S3 and it's cooling? I have a janky AMVR that I had to trim the top of. The pad also is starting to not staying on near the nose..so definitely looking for a new interface
@@jaybratt I wanted to thank you for all the great content. I have only had my quest 3 for a few weeks but I think I have seen all you Q3 videos in that short time. I should hopefully get my Bobo s3 in the mail tomorrow.
The Bobovr S3 is technically a Halo type headstrap but it doesnt use the headstrap bar like the M3. So technically I should order the one without the strap interface?
I have the standard one and it's perfect. Yours are coming off really easily.. I totally didn't experience that on mine! That white replacement part you are using could be the cause? (for the velco strap to go through) Maybe this is pushing it on yours.
Mine standard for Halo Straps also holds on very well. For me the base part you clip on the headset was kinda fiddly to get on. I have no issues with it coming off ever. Putting the quest on or taking it off it never feels loose or feels like it would just come off. Also no lightbleed from the sides on my unit, only from the top vents (as expected). Not sure if the white velcro thing Jay has on really could be the issue here or if his unit is defective. Maybe an earlier batch? or just a bad batch? Who knows. I've had mine for 3 weeks and no issues whatsoever.
@@jaybratt Has the Wider Edition also improved with V2 release? I'm using the BoboVR M3 Mini Head Strap and wondering on which edition of the Globular Cluster F3 would fit best with it.
I think you may have gotten a bad one. I do not have the magnet problems you have. Mine is nice and tight. But I do have the standard one. I love it. Works great. swapping is nice and rocking it without it is easy as well.
It's because they are making a V2. I refunded my V1 and gave them feedback before this video that is basically exactly what JayBratt found. They asked me to help provide some feedback on a V2 of this. Ultimately it seems like they made this product for to specific of a head shape
I think regarding accessories, that by now you've clearly shown you'll be brutally honest, yet some companies still send you their stuff that doesn't appear to be tested, it's pretty wild!
Forget all the problems, it’s the first facial interface that comes with a pair of grips (extenders) which is great. But, that thick padding looks like it takes away the FOV. Great idea to attach with magnets but I could really feel your frustrations. Looks like I’m sticking with the Oblik! AND it’s not compatible with Meta charging dock
I have this. FOV is terrible and the light bleed at the bottom left and right cheeks sucks. Not worth it. And to return it I have to send it back to China soooo just a waste of $40 at this point.
when the dude passive aggressively says "they didnt offer to send me one or anything" and then lightly tosses the box down like a woman, you know this dudes mustering all his sass from those low test raisins he calls balls to make some snarky comments
Nah, they just put it out in batches. If you email them they will tell you an estimate date it goes up on amazon. It goes unavailble when its sold out.. until the next batch gets listed of course.
I know this is kind of a weird comment on this video but I bought a Bobo VR headstrap off of ebay and my battery doesn't work I was hoping you might have some answers @jaybratt
@@red_gamer05 yeah if it's used that's probably your main option. You could still contact the seller or ebay because they shouldn't have sold you a non functioning battery

Just broke mine trying to take the stock one off lol

What charging dock do you recommend
Hello, can I use this with glasses? Seems not as deep since you cannot change the depth by button like with the Original face interface
Simply because they don't wish to charge an arm and a leg, and they very much seem to care about customer feedback, makes me want to order one. I have their version for the PSVR2, it gave me headaches to be honest. But still, companies like THIS need to succeed.
Hi There , Will you be reviewing the Syntech VR cross body bag carrying case to see if the bobo halo strap fits inside ???
I currently have the stock and it seems a bit scratchy so I'm wanting to change to a different one, how would you compare this magnetic one with the razer Q3 interface for comfort? as I don't live in the US the custom facial scan one is not an option.
Just as a side note about a month ago, they actually did fix most of the light bleed on the side of the facial in your face
Thanks for the review, ordered this after waiting for months for VR Cover, glad I got the halo strap one 🙂
Fantastic reporting,thank you. How is the FOV?
I've found the fov is reduced with the F3. It's noticeable enough that I put the stock interface back on and it instantly felt 'more open'
Is the standard one okay with the S3 and it's cooling? I have a janky AMVR that I had to trim the top of. The pad also is starting to not staying on near the nose..so definitely looking for a new interface
My literally came in the mail today right after i watched this. I got the normal one for halo straps and it is great.
I'm glad you got that one! 😊 Good job!
@@jaybratt I wanted to thank you for all the great content.
I have only had my quest 3 for a few weeks but I think I have seen all you Q3 videos in that short time. I should hopefully get my Bobo s3 in the mail tomorrow.
Hey there cool vids, i was wondering where did u get that ear that fits bobovr?
Great video thank you! One question: does the standard version interfere with the charging dock? Apologies if I missed it in the video.
It says in the description that it is NOT compatible with the Meta charging dock
Hey Jay what head-strap is that? 11:13
It’s the blue aubkia elite strap
The Bobovr S3 is technically a Halo type headstrap but it doesnt use the headstrap bar like the M3. So technically I should order the one without the strap interface?
I got the standard one and I love it. Thanks for the review!
So hard to find a case for that fits the bobo halo strap with the quest 3
This might help:

finally another affordable contender that isn't just an amvr clone
edit: damn they were so close
What is the best gun stock in your optinion?
Hey what halo strap would you reccomend for quest 1?
Hi Jay, where did you get the tab that the top strap attaches to?
It came w some really crappy top strap but I kept it since I'm swapping straps all the time
I have the standard one and it's perfect.

Always appreciate the work!
This video was over a month in the making!! :D
I’m using the stock facial interface and it’s starting to feel a little uncomfortable on my upper cheek bones
Yo whenever happened to VR cover just making good face covers??
I feel like they're disappearing. Haven't heard anything from them in a while ☹️
It's such a shame... For all my headsets they always were perfect
Looks like they are shipping V2 of this now, anyone who got the uodated version please share your feedback.

Looks like it is already unavailable through the link.
When will you upload the metaquest 3 charger dock

The red light switches off, or turns to green? It's been a minute since I've used one

How often do you quys do quest three giveaways?
I think we gave away 10 headsets total last year so near 1 a month, that was a lot of Quest 2s of course as the 3 wasn't out
I think you may have gotten a bad one. I do not have the magnet problems you have. Mine is nice and tight. But I do have the standard one. I love it. Works great. swapping is nice and rocking it without it is easy as well.
