SUPPORT THE CHANNEL
If you know our channel, you know we don't do clickbait and we don't do hype. However, this also means we don't get that many views and our subscriber growth, although consistent, is slow. That doesn't mean you can't help us out! Here are Amazon affiliate links to some of our favorite Quest 2 accessories. You pay the same, but Amazon gives us money! Check them out! Hell, even if you don't need any Quest accessories right now, if you click any of these links and just buy anything you need from Amazon, we'll get a commish :)

Meta Quest 3 (512Gb)

BOBOVR M2 PLUS WITH BATTERY COMBO
Easily the best halo strap we've tried. It's super comfortable and it comes with two hot-swappable magnetized batteries, which means you can (but please don't) stay in VR forever!
amzn.to/3T6BQ5s
KIWI DESIGN CONTROLLER GRIPS
Perfectly designed to fit any size hands, these knuckle-strapped beauties vastly improve your grip and (this is the magic part) give you instant access to the controller batteries so you can replace them without taking off the grips!
