I find the standard strap annoys the top of my ears after about 15 mins.

Have you got it sat above your ears or over them?

The bobovr m3 was on sale for literally a couple of minutes this morning before selling out.
The good news is the price was £49.99
So anyone wanting on keep watching for a restock . They are really hard to get hold of worldwide at the moment

The zenni lenses are nice, the quality of the quest 3 picture seems so much better with the lenses and without glasses very happy with them.

With battery

It seemed to naturally want to lie immediately above my ears. Any how I've bought one of the Maecker halo straps and that's a much better job. Not only more comfortable, but whilst I wait for prescription lenses, the jointed arms makes it far easier to put on/off whilst wearing glasses.

I've just had my eyes tested and after I got home and looked at the prescription I see there's more than one set of numbers. My old prescription was R +6 and L +8. The optician told me during the test the left eye had improved by .25 so she changed it from +8 to +7.75, and the reading part was slightly worse and changed the axis value from 45 to 80.

Can I assume for purposes of ordering VR lenses that they will just need the Distance numbers shown at the top? I can't add the near and intermediate add numbers on the VR lens sites but I guess they don't need those.

It's always the distance prescription you need.

Thought so. Excellent, thanks for confirming. HonsVR with my prescription including lens cover and blue filter comes to $90.85 which is just under £75. Still pretty decent I guess. I'm waiting now to see what ShiWarrior thinks of his HonsVR lenses when he gets to try them before I press the button.

Excellent. On the strength of his review I just ordered mine, particularly as he suggested that the free shipping might be temporary. I used his code 'MRTV' and knocked off another $4.54 and the price came down from $90.85 to $86.31, or £74. I added the lens covers to protect them. So in theory I should get mine in 5 to 9 days but I think you ordered yours about 20 days ago?

Anyway, if I get the lenses before the BoboVR M3 Pro is available and delivered, I'll be ok with the stock strap for a while longer. I find for some reason just the left side of my glasses being pressed into my nose which hurts. But once I don't have to wear them, the strap is not too uncomfortable although I do have to readjust the sweet spot from time to time as the strap tends to drop down a tad.

@Merlin5

something arrived today, looked at the sender address and i didn't recognise it, so i took some photos and just to show you these in case you wonder the same

i haven't looked at the lenses themselves yet :

 

[tangey]

I've taken the plunge with the Hons VR ones.

And today got shipping confirmation, just two days after doing the order

So they are uk based? i read on reddit they were chinese, must be incorrect. if they're decent i think i'll be buying from them for future headsets.

 

[ShiWarrior]

no, come from China

Cannock in Staffordshire is a UK distribution hub.
