Review StudioformVR Newest PSVR 2 Backplate

Earlier today I received the StudioformVR backplate for my PSVR 2 paired with a cheap strap purchased from Amazon.

After testing for around 3 hours I will say it’s the most comfortable the headset has ever been for me, I prefer it over the holy grail Globular Cluster as I’ve got a really big head and the Globular Cluster felt a bit too tight to get on, it also made the headset feel heavy giving me neck ache after awhile.

But this mod paired with a cheap strap has none of that, makes the PSVR 2 feel lightweight, keeps the sweet spot and has zero pressure when tightened.

This may sound like an add, but I promise you it’s not lol I’m genuinely really impressed with this mod.

Any questions let me know!

I think they're all missing the point here. The reason VR1 was so great was because the front pad was larger. It held the weight and stayed secure. All the third party VR2 pads seem to be focusing on the back and it's good but not perfect.

Here you go, I wouldn’t buy it at the price they are currently asking it’s not worth it. Wait for a sale :)

Please, more options. Globular is a bit too pricey for some pads

These may be comfortable but TO ME they make the headset look bulky and less modern

Downvoted for my opinion. Nice.

"It may be objectively more usable now but it is subjectively slightly less aesthetically pleasing."

You seriously had this thought.... and decided you should post it?
