As always, an EXCELLENT review of facial interfaces! You hit all the pros and cons of each interface. Personally I love my Oblik interface because it’s the most comfortable and lines up perfectly with the fan of the BOBOVR S3. Unfortunately it is the most expensive, does not ship overseas, and as of now there is no design for the Quest 3S-hopefully soon. I also have the Globular Cluster interfaces for those friends and family who want to play and who wear and don’t wear glasses. Always enjoy your videos, thanks again for a great review! 🏆
Most quest 3 after market facial interfaces do not take into consideration the quest 3's mic location and when trying to talk with your friends during gameplay they hear a very muffled audio that's very problematic. I tried several and gave up and stayed using the uncomfortable stock one until someone addresses this issue. I wonder if any of the interfaces you reviewed are covering the mic like the ones I have purchased and don't use due to this issue.
I just got the Kiwi facial interface and I was actually very disappointed with it. They don't tell you that the PU leather down toward the nose area is going to constantly tickle your nostrils and also those little tabs right at the bottom as well. And the silicone flaps, like you mentioned end up reaching very high inside, so they poke the base of your eyelids. Super annoying. Also, the Kiwi is not 20, it's like 35 on Amazon and also on the Kiwi website. I'll most-likely be sending it back and trying the AMVR on the Bobo S3 Pro. The one thing I will say in its favor is that it really does block out all the light, so it's immersive. The PU leather band is very thin though. I thought it would be a lot thicker. It's honestly not very comfortable.
There are NO pressure points so the padding is actually much less necessary. Normally the padding does a lot of compensation for how your face is differently shaped compared to the interface but that's not an issue with this one
Why doesn't anyone talk about how those PU leather interfaces leave very obnoxious fold imprints around your face? I just got the Kiwi V3 and those horrible little folds lasted for hours! And it definitely wasn't tight! I'm just not seeing anyone on YT discussing which ones leave fewer lines than others. You'd think it would be high on the list of things to talk about along with light control, etc.!
Great reviews! As someone whos plays many fitness/movement heavy games with an elite style strap, which one do you think would be best for my use case (in terms of comfort/stability and how it could deal with sweat) thanks 😀
You missed the biggest con in the group. And that is with the Globular Cluster where the magnets aren't very strong and the interface falls off with the slightest touch. I think the Globular Cluster would be fantastic if they used stronger magnets or added more of them. It's a great idea and value. But when I got mine and tried it out the interface kept falling off no matter what I tried. It was very annoying and I ended up sending it back. I've seen other reviews on it too where they complained about the same issue. So, I know it wasn't just mine (or me). I've been through 5 facial interfaces. My main one is the Kiwi V3 that I use with my halo strap. It's great with the halo strap (for the clearance) and if you don't need extra room inside for glasses. I also have an LT LAUDTEC one that I use with my elite strap. It has a bigger forehead pad and is adjustable for glasses. I had an older AMVR one, but it broke pretty easily adjusting it (sent it back). I also had an alcopanda. It was dirt cheap and showed it (sent it back).

Thanks! Always great to know you’re watching. 😊
The KKCOBVR facial interface is very comfortable & has the widest FoV.
8:15 will it work with a honor magic 6 pro? It also has a 3d scanner
It’s IOS only.

Thank you! How much more comfortable is the padding on the Oblik.... it scares me that it's so thin.
As its silicone it sticks to your face a lot better than the PU leather ones do so I find that you don’t have your head strap cranked in as tight.
@@MyTechGearGaming. I find it the most comfortable interface because it’s custom made and gel is very soft

The Amvr fits with my bobo s3 pro. I’d say I have an average size head. 7 3/8 fitted hat size
Thanks for saying this! I just got the Kiwi and I hate it. I have the Bobo S3 Pro on order, so i might look into the AMVR.
Is the gap on the globular cluster still happening? Every review I’ve watched showed a gap on the bottom due to the shape of the headset
Great vid!
Thanks! 😊

Its science really, the less pressure, the less likely you'll look like a racoon. Upgrade to a halo strap?
Hey folks, note the Kiwi V3 doesn't fit glasses very well at all. Both me and my young niece can't fit our glasses in it. AMVR is great for glasses.

I would love a video like this but for Quest 3S. I cannot decide between Kiwi, AMVR and others...
It’s on my list! 😊
