i think they make it less durable on purpose since meta doesn't have any services where you can send your oculus in and then they'll fix it for a certain price it's either you buy refurbished one or get a new one whenever you need it fixed.
Very nice. I would like a how to for an external battery mod(remove Internal battery to reduce weight). Some guy on reddit did it, but there is not a complete how to.
Nice video and what a good fix! I’m wondering how hard it would be to Frankenstein the speakers with head strap from a Hp reverb g2 onto a quest 3. I guess the speakers ohm would have to be the same and the speaker wires direct soldered to the board.
Has anyone considered replacing the entire shell with something 3D printed that is more maintenance friendly? Maybe something there the entire electronics blob can be pulled out with a couple screws and there is a battery door.
Don’t forget to check out our website for parts and repair options on all VR devices: www.fixmyoculus.com/
You managed to make me feel lucky to still have a quest 2. Keep up the good work
That makes me extra-lucky to still have a Quest 1!

Good thing I’m here then!
@@fixmyoculus exactly! You're a blessing

How come the quest 3 snaps while the quest 2 was more durable and was more about pleasing and helping people with vr
Differently constructed components. Honestly I think it’s just a failure in engineering.
As always, great video! It almost looks like they made the quest 3 less reparable on purpose... 🤫
About to purchase a Q3... I preemptively added the site to my favorites for when this inevitably breaks.
Hopefully it never happens. But we’re here if it does.
Which headset would you recommend between the 3 and the 3s?
I have this exact issue with my sons quest but not sure I want to take the risk of doing it myself. Do you guys do this repair as well?
Hi, thanks for posting this video. My meta-quest three is broken on the other side. Any suggestions for that?
It’s the same sort of repair but the component is just a little different. You can send it in on our website and we can take a look.
Are the stl files available for print for people that have a printer?
Waiting for an answer on this aswell

And they would need to fit inside the shell to seat correctly. I’ve not tried it. Might be a fun experiment.
Hmmm, I might just have a play with it 😂
Your mic sounds fine..
At least, if my headset breaks, I know that you can fix it
I need mine repaired.
Happy to help. Have you checked out our website?
What about the quest 3s speaker?
What are the common causes for the arm to break? Drops? Strap too tight?
Don’t know if you still need this but I hear it’s from removing accessories like head straps
Im looking for a replacement arm for the charging port side of the Meta Quest 3, any idea when your site will have them in stock
Wish I did. This is the most common repair request I get for the Quest 3. I never seem to have enough to keep them in stock.
@ That’s unfortunate, my dog got to mine and I was able to order the headphone arm but not the charging one :(
I don’t suppose you could point me in the right direction for parts, i found both arms on AliExpress but I don’t know if it’s a reliable site
Was going to buy a broken one and repair but man I ain't doing all of that😅
lol. Trust me, that’s probably the right call.

Could you share the stl print file so we can print one ourselves?
If you see my responses on other comments you’ll see that I don’t own that STL file. It’s owned by the designer.
@fixmyoculus Thank you for the response!
Hey, is there way we could just buy the files for personal use?
We don’t have the files. They are the property of the designer.
@fixmyoculus Ah I see, thanks for answering! I would buy them if they were for sale though.
I cant wait for the give away
