Meta Pauses Quest 3 Elite Battery Strap Sales Amid Widespread Charging Fault
Meta has temporarily paused shipments of its Elite Strap with Battery for Quest 3 due to widespread reports of a charging fault that renders the battery useless. The company is now manufacturing new battery straps to fix the defect and is handling replacements on a case-by-case basis. The faulty units are related to the device's firmware, and Meta is working with retailer partners to restock new units. Some retailers have removed listings for the device, but it may still be available in some stores. Users who experience issues are advised to reach out to Meta Support for troubleshooting and replacement. This isn't the first time Meta has faced manufacturing issues with its Elite Strap line.
