I just got the K4 Boost. It's less stable than the BovoVR S3 Pro, but at least it doesn't KILL my skull by crushing it all around. It's also much lighter, by design and because of the smaller battery. Speaking of battery, I haven't used it long enough to say how many more hours it gives the Q3. Overall, I'm pleased, I can finally use my Quest 3 without squeezed inside it, but I have yet to judge the added battery life.
That’s so strange because for me, it is more secure than the Bobovr’s S3 Pro. I think my head shape just works better with the elite style strap as opposed to the halo style.
@@m155yu Yes, and this is why it's dangerous to just "listen to Reddit". We're all different! If the battery on the K4 is good, I will return the Bobo VR. Thanks for the video.
Hi there, for the stability you just mentioned, it's very likely because you tighten the top strap too hard, try released the top strap a little bit see if it helps
@@KIWIdesign thank you One month later, I'm happy with it. I would say that the total battery time between the Q3 and the strap, combined, is a bit over 3.5 hours. Totally sufficient.
I just got the original version (that you already had) and I've been waiting for my Quest 3 to arrive in the mail. Then, I discover that THERE'S A BETTER VERSION! 😫 I'm still gonna stick with what I have. The new version does look like an improvement but both look really comfortable. Wish I'd known about the newer one a week ago but I'll survive... somehow.
Thanks for the review Missy! Can you share your experience on H4 Boost halo strap without the facial interface? Would you say it is secure enough for casual games?
No, I don't know why it was even included in the ad. It's impossible to use without the facial interface. It just falls on my face no matter how I adjust it. The only way I can see it being possibly used without the facial interface is if you're laying down or resting the back of the headstrap against the chair and don't move. I have a video on this I've yet to post 😅
@@m155yu good to know I've got two at the house but may get some more bricks. It of course was not on prime shipping and I will be waiting until end of the month or couple days into November unfortunately. But think it will be worth the wait. Used stock headstrap yesterday and forgot how bad they were. It's maybe little better than quest 2 strap. They really just need to make those slide adjustment bits in the back softer so they don't dig into your head then the standard strap be more useful. Like they make it painful so you buy something else...
@@str8ripn881 The headsets really should just get shipped with their elite headstraps instead of the standard one and make it comfortable from the get go. People aren’t going to keep using it if it’s not comfortable and people don’t want to be going out and buying additional accessories just to make it comfortable.
Kiwis video add for the k4 boost shows it charges both the headset and battery pack at the same time while wall charging. Does this show in the quest user interface like the meta branded elite strap with 2 batteries or is it still showing as a power bank and charging the headset?
It’s not like the official Meta elite battery strap where it shows as an extended battery. It’s just like as if you were charging headset so you won’t be able to tell what percentage the battery is at in headset.
@@m155yu haha, don't take that as a bad thing. I know reviews aren't your primary focus, but I still enjoyed it and would love to see you do more of it.
It's designed differently - one example is if you take a look at the K4, the top strap feeds through the Quest 3 unit - the top strap on the H4 does not.
Ничего не сказали про батарею. Больше ли держит? Не падает ли емкость батареи в quest 3? Женщины не умеют обозревать технику! Лучше займитесь косметикой ! 😂

I love that the back is clean to lay down. They both look nice. I think I need the k4 boost.
The flat back definitely makes it easy to lay down with
Helpful! Thanks for taking the time to make the video!
Thanks for watching!
Excellent reviews I was looking for an option for my quest 3. Subscribed :)
Thank yoU!!
which do u prefer tho
The k4 boost head strap

I'm still gonna stick with what I have. The new version does look like an improvement but both look really comfortable. Wish I'd known about the newer one a week ago but I'll survive... somehow.
The original one is pretty good regardless! The major difference apart from comfortability would be the battery.
The battery apparently lasts an hour less than the old version

I may try their halo strap. Just upgraded to quest 3. I have their old elite strap for quest 2 which is more like the k4 but not sure what I will get
Both are great options! If you use a 45W charger, it charges both the headset and the battery at the same time.

6:55 there is an option in energy settings where you can disable the power button so it doesn't nothing when it gets pressed by accident.
I have that set already buttttt if my cat lays his fat paw on there for too long, it still turns off. 😭😭
❤❤ omg your stunning

Does the Boost work with the original meta dock to charge it‘s battery? Thanks!
It will sit in the dock fine but you’ll need to charge the battery separately, the dock will only charge the headset
Thanks a lot for your feedback. That‘s a bummer, I really like the meta elite strap which gets charged by the docking station directly.
I loved watching you stumble through this review . 😅
Lmaooo it was very much a stumble recording this 😂
@@m155yu haha, don't take that as a bad thing. I know reviews aren't your primary focus, but I still enjoyed it and would love to see you do more of it.
Can the h4 work as an elite strap if you take off parts
It's designed differently - one example is if you take a look at the K4, the top strap feeds through the Quest 3 unit - the top strap on the H4 does not.

Yes holds more. Read the specs.
Damn! you're beautiful 🤩
