Oculus Quest 2 Owners Thread.
A thread to post your findings and share with other Quest 2 owners.
Got some accessories to recommend - or even anti recommend. Maybe a great game you think everybody should have.
Now that the Big Black Friday Quest deal is finished and the deliveries are rolling in we can start looking at accessories, or comfort tips, or whatever else we want to talk about in a longer running thread…

Everything you need you can buy from Aliexpress, best time to buy would be when there's increased cashback or some kind of sitewide discount coupon that you can apply.
Do a search for BoboVR, Kiwi Design, Esimen, AMVR etc and look at the different mods, accessories. You really only need
- a halo style headstrap to replace the crappy stock headband. (Halo style straps place the weight of the headset on your forehead, and it resembles a Rift S headstrap)
- a basic knuckle strap for controllers
- maybe some kind of storage zipper bag or charging dock if you want to store your headset somewhere, because you won't be able to fit your modded headset back into the original box anymore.
- If you're suffering from Myopia / astigmatism you might need to spend some money on 3rd party lens inserts that attach to your headset with magnets and order prescription lenses from optometrist. Read the oculus subreddit for some suggestions.

You can print this flat with PLA, then put it in warm water and when it's soft, press it against the back of your head to shape it.
