Out of all the face covers reviews I've watched, yours is by far the most in-depth and informational. Thank you!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
Totally agree!
Thanks Ivan! Glad you enjoyed it too! 😊
I have tried both the kiwi and VR cover made for fitness. The Kiwi let light in on the sides and the cushion was harder. The VR fitness one had a better fit on my face but let more light in on the nose. The better field of view on the VR cover made a big difference for me enhancing everything! I sent the Kiwi one back.
Faces are a fickle thing! 😀 what works for one person can be different to the next. Glad you found what worked for you. Happy Questing! 🙂
Have you tried the other cushions? The two look identical but they have different purposes
Are you talking about the leather ones on the Kiwi one? If so then yes, I did make some mention of it in the video. It is comfortable to wear and stays on your face well. Is there anything in particular you wanted to know about it? I have done previous videos on earlier versions of it where I go into a bit more detail on the foam pads. If that helps check out the link here... ua-cam.com/video/iPvh40OUXoE/v-deo.html
Thx man, this really helped me to narrow down my choices. Keep up the good work!
Thanks, and glad it helped you. 🙂
Perfect Video, many thanks for the in depth info about every bit of these two competitors products. I have decided to go with the Kiwi one highly because of the clothing pad as I sweat a lot while doing action games.
Glad it helped, and happy Questing! 😊
Just got my Q2 today, face feels like its been in a sauna with the default interface. Giving the kiwi a shot since it'll get here sooner with Amazon. I suspect I will be fine with it though, all the pros you mentioned are exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks for breaking it down nicely!
No problem. Enjoy! 🙂
well personally i just ordered a set BECAUSE of the cloth interface i think it looks super soft and comfy like the one that came on the reverb HP...
i use mine stricktly for sim racing and i put a fan blowing at me and the headset and with the vents in the thing there is NO sweat involved....for me this is the NON sport interface the cloth one :)
It is great to be able to have the option so you can pick the one rhat works best for you. Happy racing! 🙂
It all depends on the face shape after all. It’s like with sunglasses. You have to try them to see how it fits. Great video!
Glad you liked the video. Did you end up getting one yourself? How did you find it?
good video. thanks.
Thanks! 🙂
Is the kiwi design good for comfort and fov? I currently have the amvr one, its good but I wanted to try something else, VRcover is unfortunately not available in my country so im hoping the kiwi design would be an alternative.
I thought I covered this in the video?
Hello, I was wondering if the Kiwi interface would solve a problem I'm having where the stock foam interface is too shallow causing the middle front of my nose to hit the plastic inside the headset, would the kiwi one provide more distance or is it the same thickness as stock? If it's the same thickness, I'm thinking of getting the original VRcover instead to solve this problem since it came with a thicker pad or should I just use the kiwi one with a glasses spacer to provide more distance? Thanks.
Thanks very good video
Thanks Dave! 🙂
Hey! i plan on getting this for my vr but i have one question, does light go through the vents? im getting the kiwi design btw
I haven’t noticed any light coming through the vents.
I had to buy the meta fit pack and use the wide one to play comfortably, the standard one was too tight. I also sweat alot in games. Would you recommend VR Cover or KIWI?
I covered most points in the video as to which one would be best for which type of person. So for yourself, it sounds as though the Kiwi one would be better. However, I would recommend watching the video, consider the points made, and make your own choice. Hope that helps 😊
@@MyTechGearGaming thankyou, i did originally want the KIWI, but wasnt sure it would fit right on a wide head
I purchased the Kiwi upgraded (New) one. It did not fit the unit at all. Sent a message to them and they never responded. Buying the VR one now. Hope it fits : )
hope the new one works out better for you.
Does the kiwi interface have more space between the lenses and eyes compared to the space with the original stock interface?
Could you say the kiwi glass spacer is thicker making more space between eyes and lenses?
The glasses spacer will add more space between your eyes and lenses, yes.
One year later, and these covers are about the same price - Kiwi Design has dropped their prices on Quest 2 accessories with the Quest 3's release
I'm a bit late to the party, but I have a question.
As a younger member of the VR community, my face is still developing.
Wearing the standard quest facial interface, there is light leakage on the sides, as well as the nose. To counter that, would you recommend the vrcover one, at it is more concave, or the kiwi one?
A more concave one would be better if you have a smaller, narrower, face. So, yes, I'd say try the vr cover one.
Thanks!
I had originally planned on the Kiwi one because of the light shield by the nose, but I'll take that highly into consideration.
It depends what you value more. To be honest, I've used both, and they're both good. They're just slightly better for slightly different things.
@@MyTechGearGaming I feel like I'm just casting aside your judgement, but I feel that I may just go with the Kiwi design one.
After watching your video again, I think that it just might be the best choice for me.
I find joy in more physically demanding games, so temperature sometimes becomes an issue. With the Kiwi Design facial interface, I get both a pad better for sweating, and better cooling, which both sound like a plus for me.
I understand that because of the more concave shape, the vrcover one might FIT better, but I'm very used to the slight light leakage of the normal quest one, and the better nose shield will help with my smaller nose, helping for less leakage in that department.
The decision was always between these two, it was just a matter of researching until I came up with a final solution.
I thank you for the help and guidance, and I will try to update you later on.
One last question, though.
Is there a return policy on it? I'm sure I won't be utilizing the policy, even if the interface doesn't fit me PERFECTLY, I'm just curious in case I feel compelled to return it and try out the Vrcover one. I may even just buy the vrcover one without returning the other one, and see which one I like more.
I thank you for your time, and I apologize for making you read so much.
All good. I'm glad the video helped you decide. Both Amazon and Kiwi Design have a return policy.
I wonder if the new kiwi design one is compatible with the original quest glasses spacer....
@5:20 mark
The Kiwi design one is 47$ while the VR Cover one is just 29$, for me that is a big difference and will be choosing the VR Cover one
You can get the kiwi design one with or without the extra cloth face pad. So it's $47 with it or $36 without, and the VR Cover one is $29. I covered the price differences in the video. So people have got plenty of options to pick the one that's right for them. You'll have to let me know your thoughts on the VR Cover one once you've got it and tried it.
I am new to VR I just pre-ordered the Quest 3 which will be my first headset. I am a bit confused about something. I want to get a better headstrap than what comes with the Quest 3 but not sure which one to purchase. If I get a KIWI headstrap (I assume they will release one for the 3) would that come with a facial interface or do I need to purchase two sepearte products? Also, how soon do you think the third party accessories will arrive in stores? It would be great to get my accessories at the same time I get the Quest 3. So far I haven't seen any official announcements of the third party accessories. OF course Meta just made the announcement today. Really like your videos!!
I'd suggest waiting until you get your quest 3 as you might find that the head strap it comes with is fine for you and you don't need to buy another one. Other companies will be releasing 3rd party head straps for it though and you should start seeing them around the official quest 3 shipping date of 10th Oct. I'll be posting reviews of them as I get them too so keep an eye on this channel! 😉
I have seen some reviews stating that there is light leakage on the Kiwi face cover because of the vents , is this true?
Both the VR Cover and the Kiwi Design one have vents and I haven't noticed any light leakage in either. I have seen it where people don't click the facial interface into the headset properly and then you do get some light leakage. If it's installed properly then I've found them both to be fine.
does the vrcover have fabric interface ? cuz the leather is not breathable
No it doesn't. I cover what each of the facial interfaces come with in the video if you want to find out what they all come with.
I’ve got a face closer to wide face but I’m in between the kiwi and vr cover one can I have some help?
What help do you need?
I Decided to buy the best one
I hope you enjoy it when it arrives! 🙂
Just purchased the VR Cover. It doesn't seat properly which causes all sorts of issues. Would not recommend. There's more involved than just comfort. I ended up switching back to the factory face pad within an hour of using it.
You do need to make sure that it clicks in properly into the headset. If you can see the white of the headset between the facial interface and the lenses surround, then it hasn't been attached correctly. I covered this briefly in the video. Hope that helps.
@@MyTechGearGaming It's more than that, though. When you take off the headset, or just lift the headset off, it becomes disengaged enough to crash an application. The plastic isn't long enough to seat as thoroughly as the original. I'm returning mine.
I don't see how a facial interface coming off can crash an app. Still, you need to be happy with what you buy so I hope you get something that works for you. Maybe the Kiwi Design one might be an alternative option for you?
@@MyTechGearGaming Try it. Take any face cover off while you're playing an app and see what happens. The oculus quest 2 cannot even properly boot up without the face cover on.
Sidenote: it was the VR Cover that I used, not the kiwi cover. I posted this by mistake in a video about the kiwi. It was meant for a VR Cover video. I don't know if the kiwi has the same defect that VR Cover does, but there's definitely a defect in how the VR Cover attaches to the quest 2.
I'll be trying the kiwi, which is what I probably should have purchased the first time since I've been very happy with their headset, so far.
I just tried it with the Kiwi one and took it on and off the headset whilst in a game and it didn't affect the game. Hope you have better luck with your next choice.
Wait, field of view on the kiwi is better then the stock one out of the box? Really?
I think it is. Just my personal opinion though.
The frame won’t conform to any face shape once installed in the quest. That makes it rigid.
These face covers are certainly more pliable than the original one. I do mention contours and face shapes in the video so hopefully you can pick the one that is best for you.
I just got the kiwi head strap today and it’s amazing, I was also thinking of doing this as well.
I just want to know if the kiwi one has a similar distance from lenses like the standard one. Reason is right now how I have it setup, my glasses aren’t even close to them and the fov is still great.
These new ones have a similar fit to their original ones but now also come with a glasses spacer so that you can add even more space to your facial interface if you need to.
@@MyTechGearGaming so does that mean it shouldn’t really change the fit of it?
I didn't notice any particular difference in fit between the old and new version.
@@MyTechGearGaming oh sorry, I meant like with the default face cover that comes with the quest
They’re both around the same for distance spacing. You do also have the glasses spacer too if you need the extra room.
Does anyone know if the Kiwi comes with a glasses interface? Not sure if he mentioned it. 😂
I covered this in the video.
@@MyTechGearGaming what is considered a big head in cm or inches 🤔
The standard oculus fits me good enough but I sweat alot
Sounds like a vented facial interface would be a great upgrade for you! 🙂
@@MyTechGearGaming yeah should I get the kiwi or fitness since I think my face is small looks like a oval
I don't want another VR Cover but the Kiwi one looks like it would be uncomfortable for me personally.
Kiwis Facial interface irritates my skin really badly, I am probably buy VRcover
Sorry to hear that. I hope you have better luck with the VRCover one. Neither have been a problem for me. The original one that came with the Quest 2 though, that foam irritated my skin like you wouldn't believe.
IMO, the $30 VR Cover Fitness is still the overall king. 🤷♂️
And the $30 Fitness interface + VR Cover's optional $20 "Minimal Foam Replacement Set" (aka $50 total) is STILL the Quest 2's "maximum possible FOV upgrade" king as well, at about ≈100° horizontal (vs ≈90° when totally stock & ≈96° w/ the Fitness interface's stock "Slim" pad, & all the vertical FOV gains are similarly sized jumps as well), which is getting DAMN CLOSE to the 105° horizontal FOV that the Quest 2 actually renders! (Which thus is the HARD limit on potential FOV on Q2.)
I believe the "slim" pad that comes standard for $30 is actually the same as the "minimal" replacement pads, no?
i'm here becuase the Vr headset leaves a painful redmark on my face
