Cover If you love your Quest, you may want to look after it with a protective silicone cover from Eyglo. VR headsets aren't as robust as you’d think. Yes, you may have dropped it a few times and it still works, so why bother? Well, it’s only a matter of time before the last drop is enough and your headset stops working altogether! However, there is a simple affordable solution.
The Eyglo protective cover is a lightweight, silicone, protective face-plate that protects the major components of your Oculus Quest. These critical parts are housed within the front part of the headset and, because it’s front-heavy, when dropped the front face is usually the first to hit the floor.
The surface shape of the protective silicone cover comprises flexible elastic nipples, which absorb energy should the headset ever be dropped. This prevents the VR glasses falling out and protects internal components from any serious damage. The housing cover effectively cushions the impact, protecting your Oculus Quest headset should you, or anyone else, drop it
A great idea and well worth the money. It’s certainly better than having to fork-out another £400 for a new headset - that’s if you can still buy one at that price.

Other accessories to consider
ACCESSORY INDEXMeta Quest 2 BOBOVR M2 Pro Head Strap
After dealing with the costly official Elite strap, I can confidently say that the M2 Pro Strap by BOBOVR has proven to be an outstanding substitute. It truly stands out in terms of comfort, support, and battery longevity. If you're on the hunt for a fresh head strap, I wholeheartedly endorse this one.
Disposable VR Face Covers
Hygiene is more important than ever now, especially with the recent outbreak of the coronavirus. If you’re going to share a headset with someone it’s a good idea to protect yourself and others from picking up germs from the sweat secreted by others. The cheapest and probably most sensible way to do this is by using disposable face covers.
VR Headset Stand - Universal
If you have the space and like to keep everything neat, tidy and in the right place, a VR headstand is a good idea. The AMVR VR headset stand is an excellent choice and compatible with the Oculus Quest, Quest 2 and the Rift S virtual reality headsets.
Controller straps for Oculus
I must say, KIWI makes some fantastic intuitive products for VR. KIWI also sell knuckle straps that are compatible with the Oculus Quest and Oculus Rift S Touch Controllers. They have a fully adjustable Nylon fixing strap, that is tailor made to fit the controller and wrap securely around your hand. The straps allow you to release your hands from the controllers, but keep them in place, offering greater immersion while in VR. They also provide better protection for your controllers.
Oculus Quest Headphones
Let’s face it, the sound on the Quest or the Quest 2 isn’t overly great, by any means! That’s where the Kiwi Headphones come in. The KIWI Oculus headphones are stereo earbuds that are custom-made, in-ear earphones for Oculus Quest/Quest 2 and Rift S VR Headset. These earbuds are the perfect sound accessory for your VR headset. The cable is high strength, very durable and tough.
