Update: Meta Resumes Quest 3 Battery Strap Orders Following Charging Debacle
Meta has resumed orders for its Elite Strap with Battery for Quest 3 after temporarily pausing shipments due to a charging fault. The company plans to send out a new batch of battery straps with updated firmware by the end of the year. Currently, the device is only available directly from Meta and orders placed today in the US will ship on December 19th, while European orders are estimated to arrive on December 29th. Meta is still working to fulfill replacements for existing customers who encountered faulty units, and orders through third-party vendors have not yet resumed. Users are advised to visit the source for the full story and to contact Meta Support for troubleshooting or replacement if they have issues with their Elite Strap with Battery. This is not the first time Meta has faced manufacturing issues with the Elite Strap line.
