There's only one genre of VR that would benefit from this.

Hi
has anyone here with a quest pro had any luck with ear cups? i have seen there are silicone ones for the quest 2 but cant find any for the quest pro.

I have found a 3D print profile for some which i have sent to a mate in the hope he will print me a set however would prefer something in a similar material to the included light blockers.

i have found when using the headset when i cup my hands over my ears the sound is transformed. I know i could use headphones but........................

thanks for any experiences.

I've not tried these. To be honest I find the audio perfectly acceptable, and though it's not as loud as Quest 3 it's better quality.

cup your hands over your ears tho and it makes a significant improvement.

however the main issue is noise bleed. IF i use the ear cups i can run at a lower volume, which then means it annoys the mrs less, which then means i get an easier life. last night i was watching Silo on vr cinema sat next to the wife watching her crap on telly(exciting lives we lead :D ) and it was a constant battle of the volumes, her with the telly, me with the headset.

of coruse i could just buy a set of headphones, but i think something like those ear cups would be enough, certainly with my hands it worked a treat, its just not the most comfortable and makes me look even more of a berk than usual/

Seems like there is some confusion over how long the warranty is for the Quest Pro in the UK.

I bought my Pro in December 2022 at full price (just before it dropped!)

My right controller is now exhibiting drift, so I contacted Meta who said it wasn't covered under warranty as that's only 1 year according to them! They offered to sell me a refurbed pro controller with a 3 month warranty(!) for £140. And what's more I'd have to send the old one back! You can buy a pair with a full warranty and charging dock for £239, which is way better value, plus I'd keep the old controllers as spares.

Lucky I bought extended warranty and accidental damage cover from the high street catalog shop where I bought it and rang their helpline.

However they said it was still in a 2 year warranty according to the catalog shop. If the controller had been accidentally damaged they'd cover it but they couldn't help with a manufacturing defect until the store warranty ran out.

Went into the catalog shop and talked with the manger. They don't sell the headset anymore and wouldn't be able to give a full refund due to having used it for nearly 2 years. He did ask if there was anything else he could do. I pointed out they sell the pro controllers and he agreed to order them and swap the controllers over for me, so a good result in the end.

Glad I bought the extended warranty now, as at least I have cover for another couple of years.
 
I wish meta had used Hall Effect sticks. Still the Pro controllers built in battery make them essentially a disposable item as it's not feasible to replace them.
