About this item
Reduce facial pressure: It adopts a suspended design and supports multi-point adjustment, which evenly transfers the original facial pressure of the host to the head. If you want, you can even remove the facial interface to fully enjoy the transparency of MR mode.
Power supply is more convenient: The battery pack adopts a magnetic quick-release design, and the battery can be detached and charged, which does not affect the use of VR host. Two battery packs are hot-swappable for unlimited battery life (the second battery pack needs to be purchased separately).
Reducing the weight of the head battery: We designed a dedicated battery pack B2 for the VR host, which weighs only 140g, which can balance the front and rear weights. Compared with the traditional power bank, the burden on the head is significantly reduced.
Double the battery life: The battery capacity of a single battery pack is 5200mah, adding about 2 hours (APP depends) of VR time.
Hassle-free Warranty: For any pre-sale or after-sales issues, an 18-month hassle-free warranty is guaranteed to feel free to contact us.

Hey Jay! just ordered my Quest 3! the Discount code for the s3 pro strap doesn't seem to work though. is there a new One? Thanks!
Just got my Quest 3 today and was looking into different head straps. So thank you for doing this video for anyone in the same position!
Found any useful solution
How long did it take you to received your item
Once in a while I stumble across your youtube channel and I’m always surprised how much your channel grew, keep up the good work you definitely deserve it. Love you much Jaybratt I’ve been with you when you were still a young youtube channel!
Looks like Meta pushed an update because the headset charged from 42% to 73% while playing a 2D game. Two days ago it would still discharge while plugged into the charger.
That's potentially very good news!! I'll test mine again this week and see if we have any new outcomes! *fingers crossed*
@@jaybratt V.59 should have better baterry performance 😊
It's a power saver update and it decreases graphics to do so.
Man I really hope your channel hits 100K next year, you're videos are great when it comes to info and editing.
Thanks a lot for the review, Jay. I am not sure if I am gonna pick this one for up yet. It is tempting for the comfort, but... there might be a better solution around the corner.
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO, HONESTLY CANT THANK YOU ENOUGH. I was literally in amazon about to buy this, and your video popped up. I will take your advice and wait.
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO! I am looking to buy a quest 3 with a battery pack headset. And I heard that bobo is the best. This is literally the perfect video for me.
Thanks Fanhalo! Bobo was the best solution for the Quest 2 in my opinion. So far Quest 3's are having issues with charging while being played though so Bobo may actually need to update this with a more powerful battery.
@@jaybrattmy M1 Pro charges the Q3 just fine.. sounds like your brightness is up to far.
I have a question, I am getting the quest 3 next year around january. Do you think they will make a better strap by then? Thanks for replying!
@@joshmills7368 pretty sure its quality control issues
@@Fanhalo by then I definitely think either Bobo will fix any underlying issues, or there will be another 3rd party brand with a good all round strap.
Hi Jay. Great video by the way.
I got my M2 to M3 conversion kit a few days ago, I love it, the face pad went from being "abrasive" with the cloth strap to feeling pretty good with the M2-3 strap. LOL
As for the battery thing, I use my Quest 3 mostly for PCVR so I've set my HMD to 90hz (it defaulted to 120hz), I also turned off passthrough and hand tracking and Bluetooth. My BoBoVR batteries are all 2.6 amps and very often, they will charge the Quest 3 while I use it in PCVR (Virtual Desktop) and am happy with the battery life I'm getting. Agreed, once you start doing MR/AR, with all the Quest 3 features turned on, the BoBoVR batteries don't last very long not to mention the Q3's internal battery. For PCVR, I am very happy with the Quest 3, love the edge to edge clarity of the new optics, the increase in FOV is a pleasant bonus. So far, I am impressed with my Q3 with M2-3 strap!!!! :)
So basically the problem starts only if you are in ar/Mr but not playing games in VR. Interesting
Really cool that you featured the video from the smaller TH-camr! Wow you are a great reviewer
BOBO needs to develope an actual plan for their product identification. So many people don’t know that the Plus is an upgrade over the Pro. Calling the new Q3 head strap the M3 is a massive mistake. What are they going to call the Quest 3 Elite strap now?!
I agree. It’s very confusing
I’m still using my M1 Plus on my Q3
Oh, I had no idea
I thought they didn't wanted to make an Elite Like headstrap for the Q3 - Quest 3?
I don’t think Bobo is gonna make an elite strap for Q3
Awesome review. I've made similar comments about the loss of FOV over on Reddit but everyone is too busy gushing over this headstrap to notice. This thing was the absolute king of headstrap for the Quest 2, but they really should have redesigned aspects of it for the Quest 3.
The M2 conversions I 3d printed are on their way to you. They have a notch so you can move the strap more forward. In fact without the facial interface (Pro style) you can get closer to the lenses until you can see the sides of the LCD displays. Backing off a little you get the most FOV possible which is fantastic for me. I am going to make some Pro style light blockers for the sides and top. Stay tuned :)
Where can I get the STL file? Or are you gonna sell them before BOBO gets theirs out to capitalize real quick?
@@JonAS-MR Not going to sell them. I will have the STL's on thingiverse in the next day or so when I get the time. I also finished the side light blockers and they will be up as well.
@FinlessBob thank you kind sir. Can i request for the link when its up?
Is your thingverse name the same as your TH-cam?
@@FinlessBob goat
Thank you for the vid and the honesty.
Agree Bobo has been your fav so to see you bringing up these issues is an integrity move! I hope Bobo takes the feedback and makes a capable battery
Your reviews rock man
Got my Audika Headstrap with 8000 mAh and so far it holds the internal at 100 percent. I tested it with Red Matter2 and First Encounter
i love your honesty man
I heard you need like 5+watts more power if you enable 120hz mode, so might be best to stick with 90hz for battery life.
I have my Frankenquest 3. Feels great! Sounds great!
I'm happy the Bobo is out now. People love it.
I do use one of Bobo's batteries. I'll see your vid on battery issues.
I have my FQ3 as well, but I find that the built-in speakers on the Q3 seem to be superior to the DAS, specially with regards to 3D sound.
I find that that's true most often. I have been comparing both sources. I like that the headphones can be tucked away on the DAS.
The Quest 2 had an accessory that piped the stock speaker closer to the ears. Not a headphone but I guess like those horns old men used to use in old-timey days. "Huh?"
I would love to see that for Q3.
Solid review, 👍
I played for 2 hours using my BoboVR using the M2 Plus kit plus retrofit. I started at 88% headset charge, ended at 87% with 50% left in the external. This is after the update.
My battery info is:
Model: B2
1INR19/66-2
In: DC5V-2.6A Max
Out: DC5V-2.6A Max
Capacity: 5200mAh
3.7v/19.24 Wh
Made in China
2305.
How you update
I have the 5v 2.6amp and I used it last night for the first time. I played a round of Walkabout and a bunch of games of Onward with some friends. Played for a couple hours. The headset went from 100% when I started, to 87% when I stopped playing. Definitely happy with it so far.
I’m getting one soon is it worth it?
@@lucapuglisi1020 it's MUCH better than the stock strap, definitely worth it. You have to take the battery off and plug it in to charge it though, don't leave it attached to the headset and attempt to charge. It acted weird for me and didn't always charge.
Nice review thanks
It seems quite the nebulous problem but I really appreciate your honesty! Great vid as always!
Hey JayBratt, I hope you see this comment because I’m rlly looking for a solution, but my quest 3 has just plain and simple stopped charging. I rlly don’t know what to do. I’ve tried another usb-c cable and different charger blocks and charging bays and nothing seems to have worked. Any advice?
Really helpful, thanks
I hope they can resolve the issue via a software update because I finally managed to get an order in for an M3 Pro directly from Bobo's website. Either way, I'm not overly experienced with VR and I usually want to take a break after and hr or so anyway, but that might change once I'm ACTUALLY COMFORTABLE with the Quest 3 on my face. Also have an M2 Pro and charging dock with extra battery, all ordered separately. Will share info on battery information after testing.
How close without the facial interface, can you put your eyes near the lenses before the sliders (going to the front) on the bobovr (the black ones) collide with the USB plug on the front, or the 3.5mm audio plug.? Because if you are in a dark room, you don't care about the no facial thing. Also, are the black top head black supoorts removable ? Thanks
Im using the neck one and i dont even realise it there after a little while , and it does the job its made for. Im also using the cheap headstrap from Zyber so comfortable.
Thanks for the video. Been waiting for this. Still have not been able to get one delivered (and from what I am seeing on discord some people that even ordered it on the 10th have been delayed again and still not received their headsets (M3 Pro)) so it is not looking good. I am going to try the new battery solution you talked about. I ordered the neck battery and the elite battery strap (both really good prices right now with discount codes) and I have already received confirmation that my order has shipped from China unlike the BoboVR product that I have had the conversion kit on order for several weeks and it is supposed to be delivered on this Thursday from Amazon however I do not hold out much hope this will happen. Will keep watching your videos. Hope you can try the PrismXR T1 ear buds as they are basic but surprisingly good IMO. Will keep watching for the next great product for the Quest 3. Thank you for your hard work.
According to tracking, my M3 is currently on the slow boat from China. Given all the comments about battery life, I ordered Zybervr neck power bank despite having just received the extra B2 battery (2.6) and charger. I have the same concern about playing Demeo right now. Thank you for spending the time to research and keeping us informed!
I just ordered myself the Bobovr M3 Pro strap because what came with the Meta Quest 3 is so intolerably uncomfortable that I can’t wear it for longer than 30 minutes at a stretch. Luckily, the Bobovr M3 Pro was on sale when I ordered it. But even at regular price it’s cheaper than the Meta Quest upgrade strap. The battery is just a bonus. I’m glad to hear that you’re comfortable wearing your headset now. I look forward to spending more time actually using my Meta Quest!
The M3 served me well from launch and I still like it! That said Bobo did just drop one they made new just for the Quest 3 so you might want to check it out in case you want to consider swapping your order: th-cam.com/video/Ob_bTddJzRk/w-d-xo.html (It is more expensive though)
Hey guys I have a question regarding that video, do you think it's safe to buy a quest 3 with a bobo M3 now because the battery issue is only software-related ? Or would it be wiser to wait just in case the problem with the Q3 was hardware related ? Thank's in advance,
I have a question i got my quest 3 (my first headset) a few day ago. And i wanted to buy a bobovr headstrap. But i don't know if it is good when you are swinging your head around. Is it comfy or should i buy it? Also i don't worry so much about the battery course it didn't died in abour 2h 30min of playing. Sorry for my bad english i am german...
Just a quick mention to those who have problems, especially with the Elite Strap, just turn your quest 3 off and back on. It's solved every weird connection/charging error I've had so far. Might not work for all, but worked for me a few times during the two weeks I gave the Pro Strap to prove itself. I kept it because the problems eventually stopped.
Just noticed this evening BoboVR has it back in stock so I ordered one (still don’t see it available on Amazon). I’m willing to risk the battery issue since it’s a universal one and I bet either Meta will fix it or Bobo will come out with batteries that will work better at some point. I just couldn’t stand the discomfort compare to my Q2 setup (wasn’t Bobo) and find myself avoiding putting on the headset, so I need a comfortable solution asap.
They seem to be more readily available now, was checking by the hour since release i could never catch a time to buy it. Bought mine on the official bobovr website a few hours ago and it still shows available as of me posting this comment. Go pick one up if you havent already, fellow Canadians can expect an $82 bill after a $4 shipping charge. Says mine is estimated to arrive November 4-12ish. Personally im more excited for the upgraded comfort, the extended battery life is just a mini bonus as I usually dont play any games for too long before taking a break anyways
Recent updates may have really helped. Got the conversion kit yesterday and here are my two cents.
1. Fits just like does on my Q2. I have the zenni inserts so no noticeable issues with what I could consider lost FOV from what I had with the stock strap.
2. Good friggin luck getting to top Velcro strap thru the center. This seriously took me 20 minutes of unfiltered frustration. Maybe bobo was smart enough to reverse the Velcro on the out of box M3 but it’s so gd hard to feed strap down thru the hole vs up with an M2 crown.
3. Finally the battery. I threw a 5v 2.6 on and played Pop 1 which has been my fastest drainer since launch. After 1.5 hours my quest was at 89% and the batter still had 2 lights. I also had the battery running thru a passthru dongle for wireless earbuds. update must have helped bc I can totally live with this and I’m very happy with the converted M2
Will the M3 Pro interfere with the Meta charging dock? I love that my Q2 drops in the D2 charger and I don't worry about it, so would this fall off the Meta charger?
im getting a Meta quest 2 with a backpack for the meta quest to be inside and the elite strap. what do i need to do that it wont die so quicklyv
I got the bobo vr m3 pro and it appears the headset is charging via the given battery without any issues as of now. Trying for 2 days and no issues. Playing with mixed reality table tennis . I am satisfied with the purchase
Just figured out what the beep is for. If you are gaming and the battery runs out, it beeps to tell you it's time to change so you don't run down the headset before switching. It alerted me today and I was greatful for it. By the way. I make sure to keep the headset fully charged and I only lose between 1 to 5 percent headset battery playing through a full M2 2.6 batterey. It seems to deplete faster if you have lower headset battery when you start.
Ive mentioned this b4, but does the bobo battery now beep when almost discharged?
Its baffling to me that they would put a speaker on it and not do this. Results in periodic checking to see if its drained.
From what I hear the issue is with thew wattage of the batteries being used with me strap maybey Bobovr makeinge. 20watt batteries could be a possible fix?
Can I get as close to the lens with this head strap as the closest position with the default strap?
Still waiting for my BoboVr M3 to show up, I'm going to keep the order because of the strap and I guess hope that they will fix the battery issues. Don't know if thats something the BoboVR company is likely to recall the batteries or send out new ones if they find them to be faulty or have a solution?
I 3d printed an adapter for my M2, honestly its pretty much the same thing, but if BoboVR wants these batteries to work full on the Q3 then they have to do something about increasing its output.
I may have missed the link but which battery bank is the around the neck one? After trying to add so many different battery strap solutions to my Quest 3 shopping cart, I genuinely don't know what to do anymore. BoboVR keeps going in and out of stock, the Binbok VR Quest 3 Swappable Battery strap that I was seriously considering just went out of stock on Amazon, and so at this point nothing feels right or safe to purchase. Part of me wants to pay for the Meta battery strap out of desperation *sigh*
i just got the strap for the comfort and gave my M2 to my friend. I don't really care wether or not the battery works i just NEED TO GET RID OF THE DEFAULT STRAP
I have a oculus quest 2 related question… I’m getting the quest 2, and saw some things online about “disappearing games” where after you buy them they don’t show up, or disappear after a while. Those videos were posted a year ago, has this been patched?
I’m looking at getting the bobo vr m3 pro for my quest 3 and I mainly want it for comfort but I am also curious how long the batter of the headset lasts without any external battery packs and does the battery make a noise for you?
I feel like a noob, how are you adjusting the headset in at 2:07? I'm looking for a button but do you just push the headset in?
Can u still plug in sth like a link cable in the usb c port of these straps, is there one that supports that feature
Really interesting about the differences in the battery. I marked my batteries (I have 4) and always assumed they were the same however the early batteries I got are the 3 amp versions and the later batteries I got appear to be 2.6 amp which is rather strange (thought it would be the other way round). I always thought that the B2 batteries were the same and it has not been made clear (yet again) by BoboVR that they made a change to the batteries however never told anyone (it would be different if it had been given a different name just like the headsets with M2 Pro and M2 Plus for instances) like B2 and B2 version 2 or B2 pro at least some way to let people know of a change taking place and not having to search for this ourselves otherwise it just feels like they are trying to hide something. Just my take.
These kind of reviews are among the best. I'm already shopping for battery packs even before I have my new Quest3. Now, I have the BoboVR for my Quest 2, but it looks like I'm gonna go for another brand, if available in Thailand or Malaysia... I see the BinBok 8000 mAh and Zyber VR are good alternatives. For my Pico4 I just strapped an old batterypack to the back of my head. Works good enough for me. But the Quest3 seems to need a lot more juice to be pleased.... it's gonna be an "expensive" lady!
I bought the XIAOMI 33W Power Bank 10000mAh Pocket Edition Pro here in Singapore (around USD30) and strapped it to the stock head strap (great counter weight) with a 5A USB-C to USB-C cable... Holds the Quest 3 charge (started to play with headset battery at 87%)... it did not charge more, but neither did it discharge at all for 2.5 hours of 360+ Master Synth Riders... Happy to stick with this, until some manufacturer figures out a more elegant solution.
Hey JayBratt, do you have one of those Anker PowerCore power banks with 10000+ mAh capacity and 20W~65W outputs? Maybe you could try one of them and see if it fixes the drain issue on your Quest 3. I'm looking to get one of those just in general, and I just heard from other Quest 3 users that it seems to be better as a power pack for the Quest 3. Some said that the drain is due to the output wattage being lower than spec for the BoboVR packs.
Thank you for the Real Talk! Great channel, great production, great topics.
Btw: I have a non-swapable solution that remedies all the mentioned shortcomings.
Has anyone tried a beefy powerbank? I was looking at some high wattage ones with very large capacity. If we can get a solid 4+ hours on a single battery then location based mixed reality becomes more viable.
Could it be a trickle charge issue? Maybe the quest 3 is just constantly in a state of trickle charge and it dissipates the extra energy off before it can use it?
I have two 5v 2.6a batteries that came with the Twin Charger, and they're working fine with the Quest 3. Playing modded SkyrimVR over VD, i get ~ 1h 40min until the B2 is empty, whilst the headset is down ~ 3-4%. I can live with that, though i wish it was lasting longer.
Same, similar experience when playing Derail Valley over VD. And they only ever lasted around 1:45 - 2h on the Q2 as well. Not an issue since they're charged up in pretty much the same time. And at least for me, since I bought another strap and the conversion kit, I got 4 batteries now... :)
Hey Jay,
I use the Rebuff Reality VR Power 10k mAh battery pack and I use my Q3 for PCVR 98% of the time and I can keep the battery at whatever % its at the whole time.
If I plug it in at 96%, until that battery dies, it will sit at 96%.
I also have 30k mAh external battery that I keep in my pocket for when that Rebuff dies and that one can hand outputting up to 30W.
I've actually seen my percentage go up while using the Q3 for PCVR with that battery.
You need something with atleast 15W (max the Rebuff can do) to keep a steady charge. This is only an issue with the Q3 since it can sometime pull more than 18w if you are playing Quest games.
I havent tested but im very sure if you use it for PCVR you only need 15W (5V 3A) and you are good to go.
I use AirLink with the slider all the way to the right and 90Hz or VD on Ultra.
You can also turn off the hand tracking if its not something you use often to conserve some battery while gaming.
Hope this helps you and others!!
I've been watching Amazon for this since getting my q3. Always says unavailable but also shows 900+ sold.
Is there an update on this now that updates have been released? The S3 pro is really expensive and only come with one battery. Can get multiple batteries and an m3 pro for a lot cheaper. So id like to know if the m3 pro can keep up now.
any update? I am waiting to buy the BOBOVR M3 until they fix the charging issues on Quest 3...Thanks
I'm using the M2 conversion kit and my Bobo battery lasts around 2 hours, so it's working well aside from not always recognizing the battery is connected the first time I attach it. Maybe the M3 is faulty in some way?
When my headset recognizes my extended battery on elite strap i can get 5 to 6 hrs. The problem is sometimes it doesnt recognize it as extended battery but it reads it as you have it plugged to a charger
Have you given any thought to trimming the front of the attaching arms so that you can push it closer without running into the charging and audio ports?
Do you have a carry case recommendation which can fit the bobovr? Looks like they don’t have a version of their case for quest 3 yet
How does the official Quest 3 Elite strap with battery specs compare to B2 battery specs?
I dunno if I just got a good quest 3 or what but my bobom2 batteries keep my charged up and I can just alternate and never run out.
Hi, Just a quickie,
is it Just me or is the Padding on the little pad thingies on top Actually Thicker on the M3?
Why I'm asking is that I tried to use M2 on Quest 2 but those top pads just dug to my head ... thinking that thicket padding might resolve this for me
I have a rift s and i love the head strap on it. Im looking at getting a quest 3, is this the closest i can get to the rift s strap?
5v, 2.6 here. When in Bigscreen, and using bobvr m2 pro (retro fit -3d printed adaptor).... i can hear static/low buzzing when using an external battery plugged in...... is weird, and a little concerning. (can hear it easily when in my room with no other noises playing)
Can you try drown the battery? So charge it first if it drops to around 50% intern battery and then turn on the battery on the strap and show a update if it works then?
I have the same battery you showed at 11:06 . Nothing Bad to say... Everything seems to work fine so far
Mine is a 13W battery and I've tested it with all variety of standalone games and PCVR games and the headset stays at 100% charged the entire time the battery lasts which seems to be about 1.5-2 hours.
The new power save option has appeared on my Quest 3, oddly it does not show that I have v59. Anyway, if I turn it on I get some extremely noticeable foveated rendering especially in the TH-cam app. It seems to it blurs way too much of the screen. I'm not happy with that a power solution. I thought they would just bump the render clock down or something. It also doesn't appear to affect the power draw. My power bank still gets extremely hot if the Quest 3 doesn't start out fully charged.
Ive been using the m3 pro headstrap for a little over a week now and ive got to say that its literally the best headstrap ive ever had, i have the 3v battery pack. When i play with the headset battery then the battery pack i get a total of a little bit over 3 hours play time. Its perfect!
What uses up more battery? Wireless PCVR or standalone? Can the Batterypack keep up with PCVR?
I have an elite with a battery. Iv noticed that when the battery is connected to the quest, when fully shut down, the battery drains in one day.
But when using once fully charged, I'm getting anything from 5-7 hours use out of it.
But if it's not on charge, the battery dies.
So now I leave it plugged in when not in use, but I hate to think how quickly this will kill the battery. My 5-7 hours will probably come 3-4 very soon.
I had the suspicion that the lens distance might be a problem, cause the design is a bit similar to the psvr2, your review confirmed that so thanks a lot mate, appreciate it
I have a Miady 2-Pack 10000mAh from Amazon and it last me over an hour if I plug it immediately when quest 3 is %100. Seems to hold charge most of the time.
Im guessing that your around the neck one charged at 9v, while the bobovr charges at 5v.
I tested the current of my quest 3, and every charger i plugged it in charges it at 9v, 2.0a, for a total of 18 watts.
I would love you to use a usbc current tester.
I love how no one mentions how hard it is to get the halo velcro loop through the Quest 3. I needed to add a piece of tape, feed the piece of tape through and pull, praying the tape held.
I literally ditched it as quick as possible! I found it pointless on the Quest 2 and same on the 3 for me.
@@jaybratt Good to know thanks
@@jaybratt Wouldn't that have helped with your headset tilting over time during active gameplay?
@@jaybratt Same, so I guess most people are gonna do the same.
I had to use the paper-feed trick even on my Q2 haha
I've been using my rebuff reality battery pack and its been keeping the charge at 100% while charging for 2-4 additional hours.
Would like to get a bobovr headset and try to frankenstein the rebuff battery to it.
I've been on the fence about the BoboVR... I really like the idea that I can buy a few batteries and swap out for indefinite playtime, but I've always used the elite battery strap and it really worked well for me. Now the Q3 elite battery strap is even better with tethering through the strap and wireless charge through the headset.
Only bit missing - replaceable batteries. That is actually more of a problem with the 3 because even with the extra battery the unit is sucking dry in less time than I'd like (only VERY rarely did my quest 2 run dry before I was ready to stop).
So as much as I like the q3 elite battery strap... once BobVR sorts out their battery capacity issues (I'm guessing a version with bigger batteries) I will likely give it a try.
I'm personally waiting until the Kiwi design battery elite strap comes out for the quest 3
Bought quest 3 but I find it somehow more uncomfortable then the Quest 2 before I upgraded head strap. Quest 3 just feels like its weight right on my cheeks not comfortable at all. Been checking BOBO website everyday but nothing wish we had a date it might be in stock or will this take months?
My bobo batteries are the 5v 2.6A versions and I've had it happen twice now where the headset uses up 25% of the bobo and then stops using it at all till I take the battery off and put it back on
A Friend printed a Quest 2/3 Adapter for me and I used them with the M2 Plus on my Quest 3, and it is perfect (I still love the M1 Plus more, but that stays on my Q2 for fitness).
I also have no problem with my 2 Batteries, they are 5.0v 3A. The Quest 3 battery is still drained, but way slower. I played nearly 1 1/2 hour Dungeon of Eternity and my Q3 Battery is at 83% and the Battery at 2 points out of 4. And thats good for me
Just wait for the Adicop head strap for Quest 3 to be released. Much better than BoboVR in terms of fit/function, just doesn't have the swappable battery pack, although the battery is 10000mAh (on the Quest 2 version anyway). Adicop said it will be released on Amazon very soon (within days potentially).
I got one from bobo but it seems sold out on amazon.. hopefully my order goes through. I can play plugged in unlimited battery using a MacBook charger
Ok, here's a question. The quest 3 has a docking charging port underneath...
How much power is it capable of pushing? can this be used to charge while the headset is in use? Has anyone tried this? can we get a pin-out diagram for the power?
edit, also, are they just randomly sending different versions of the batteries? is the M3 pro coming with a higher output battery than the M2 Plus/M2 Pro? are your other batteries from before the Q3 launched? is it possible the one battery you have that is working, is the one that came included with the M3 Pro?
Please keep us udpated on this. Often if possible. I work alot and I have left mine in the box, as without the Bobo VR strap, I hate wearing the thing. Appreciate all your efforts.
Couldnt you dremmel out the spot where charge cord goes for closer view?
Sad to hear the M3 still has charging issues. Momentarily i don't seem to have any discharge issues with original charging cable and new 6000mah powerbank from fresh 'n rebel. Also bought a 5m, usb c to c, 3.2 gen2 cable on amazon for PC Link for 15 bucks, it can charge/hold a charge and game at the same time. (i also do this for standalone if my powerbank drops and don't want to lose Quest battery)
Cant find these BoboVR M3 in stock any where? Are there and stores that have any in stock. Everywhere is Out of stock!
Really appreciate the honest review, way to many VR BROS TH-camrs who sing nothing but praise and are incapable of critical thinking. Keep up the good work, you got a sub from me!
Hey welcome and thank you so much! Frankly I just find being selective with my words and not saying exactly what I feel is just too much work! It's easier to be honest and real in my opinion.
I printed some adapters for my GomrVR strap, it's pretty nice, although it puts the headset a tiiiiny bit too far forward.
I'm happy with it for now. Getting some kind of battery strap at some point.
I ended up buying a M2 Pro+ and made it fit my Quest 3....works great! :)
How did you do it?
Over 4 months later, is the battery still having issues?
