Is it blurry when you use it in Native Mode? There is something badly wrong if the Civ1 is clearer than the Quest 2.

Maybe I worded that wrong. Better to say my CV1 seems more in focus than the Quest. I'm pretty sure it's due to the positioning of the headset with the halo strap whence the need to try different positions on my head.
hmmm, what's your IPD?

I don't know exactly, very narrow. I've always had to use the smallest setting on both the CV1 and quest.
I think you should try to get an exact value. The Civ1 and Quest are a lot more forgiving to wrong IPD settings than the Rift S and Quest 2.

That’s a good tip, thanks.
Get a free app like EyeMeasure (on iOS) and use a ruler in from on the mirror. The results from both methods of measurements should be pretty close
If the 'back head cup/cradle' is comfortable and doesn't move around, then perhaps lengthening the top head strap to allow it to rest more on your cheeks rather than your forehead.

Just tried a free android app and it says 60mm so I’m within the sizes supported by the quest 2.
Will try moving the straps as suggested a bit later. Waiting for the grocery shopping to be delivered

If your IPD is 60, you should try moving the IPD slider on the Quest 2 to halfway between position 1 and 2. It will be much closer to your actual IPD than position 1.

I found one that used a magnetic strip card as calibrator. Made sure not to use a bank card though.

I have just ordered these in white, hopefully these should stop me hands from slipping... How long does the batteries last in the controllers? hopefully a long time as it will make changing the batteries harder. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08W3XG393/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

So yeah I bought the Quest 2 a week ago and so far Im really impressed, its a huge upgrade from the DK2 (no more noticeable pixels, yey), I bought a headstrap, 5 meter usb cable and now some controller rubber/silicon hand grips, all from "the rainforest"... These accessories makes the quest much nicer to use and the hand controllers are totally different with the rubber/silicon grips as you can totally let go of the hand controls and they stay firmly in your hands.
So its costed a extra £86 for the headstrap, cable and rubber/silicon controller grips,, but they are well worth buying with the quest 2.

The quest (sorry!) for comfort and clarity has finally been met.
How? I 3d-printed a battery pack holder and mounted it to the back of the halo strap. It now all balances nicely, keeps the lenses in the sweet spot and takes the pressure off my nose.
Played Assetto Corsa Competizione last night for a couple of hours and all was great.

It's funny because I never had to buy any add-ons to make my Index more comfortable (except for prescription lenses, and I have to do that for all head-sets). I guess that's why it's three times the cost of the Quest 2!
Base price of the Quest 2 is amazing, but you really do have to price in the cost of add-ons. I've spent over £100 on front and rear VR covers and a battery headstrap for the Quest 2 which makes the index only twice as expensive.
