Does anyone have a case that is big enough for the AVP and the BoboVR M2? Obviously they don't have to be connected. And I'm looking for something as small as possible.

I have a Spigen Klasden on order, but from the pictures online, it doesn't look like it will accommodate a BoboVR.

Has anyone found a shoulder bag, or cross body bag to carry the battery while using VP?

I usually keep it in a pocket but sometimes this isn’t possible or requires I put down my iPhone.

I’m considering the “Mini Crossbody Chest Bag Running Belt Phone Holder.” It seems as small and inconspicuous as I can find so far.

Seems like this would be perfect for you?

I should have specified—apart from the one in the Apple Store.

I suppose I’d consider a clip like this but would expect it to be $10.

Where's the golden neck brace that should come with it?

These are the accessories I have found to be the most useful to me.
I did a lot of research online, bought several models, tested them, kept the most suitable for me and returned the rest.

Case:
It's a very compact case, I was able to fit a lot of things in it:
• Vision Pro with it's battery pack and cable (obviously!)
• AC Adapter with USB-C charging cable
• 30000mA Battery Pack
• Foldable keyboard (listed below).


Foldable Keyboard:


Battery case:
I only had to replace that loop ring with a carabiner clip I had floating around.

Thanks for this. I posted one of the first reviews of that eucarlos case. I think it could be slightly larger to accommodate the battery cable but is otherwise very good.

The battery cover is a good suggestion, I hadn’t seen those arrive yet but expected something to come out there. Did you look at over the shoulder bags to carry battery also? I’m curious about those as an alternative to clipping or pocketing.

Also I’m curious how many other keyboards you tried and am somewhat surprised that one fits in the case with the other gear. Did you try many other keyboards? I’m surprised the rating is below 4.5.

One more thing, have you considered a lens cover protector? I picked up the kiwi designs protector, it’s just a small pillow, but gives some sense of security. For example I don’t worry about coiling the battery cable in near the lenses because they are covered.

Only had mine a few days, but I find the Solo Knit Band gives a much better fit for me, the downside being I definitely feel the weight more (obviously). That VR Panda Headstrap looks like it might offer the best of both worlds.... @tobyringle69

This VR Panda Headstrap is not expensive. I have also seen an adaptor to mount a second Solo Knit band that would go on top of your head to accomplish the same. It would be a lot less bulky. I just need to remember where I saw it…

Hello everyone,

We would like to make the AVP available for our employees to try out in a showroom at work. This should be an open room without any major controls. Nevertheless, we would like to avoid losing one of our 4 AVPs.

Do you have a solution that you can recommend? We were thinking of AirTags, which we would attach to the AVP using Belkin holder. But perhaps there is a better solution?

As far as I know, Apple's "Where is" still doesn't work with the AVP, right?

Are you concerned about an employee taking one? Just making sure I understand.
Wouldn’t you have a dedicated person with each unit helping them to set it up?

How do you plan to deal with people who need lenses?

I already got used to the Single Loop Band, but I’m always open to new suggestions.
Which one would you recommend?
Any cheap CPAP strap with velcro should work, like the one seen here: https://www.reddit.com/r/VisionPro/comments/1azui1c Amazon has lots and lots to choose from. I bought these, but there are many others: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B6H7WWX4/

Notes:
  • The CPAP strap wraps around the AVP arms, and you use the velcro portion of the strap to make a loop around the AVP arms (nothing sticky needs to be attached to the AVP).
  • I have reversed the CPAP strap such that the velcro end is on the outside (in the above pic, it's on the inside). While this isn't as clean a look, you can adjust the strap without taking off the AVP.
  • I moved the strap a bit back, towards the solo loop attachment point so that the speakers aren't blocked.
  • The strap does not go over the top of my head but is instead angled slightly forward (towards my forehead).
  • Properly tightened, the CPAP strap allows me to loosen the solo strap. This takes some pressure off my face and also allows me to easier move the solo strap at the back of my head up and down for better facial comfort.

Got this for $120 cad and it’s perfect. Fits my battery, battery clip and anker 737 power brick. No way I’m paying $279 cad for the Apple case lol

Also has a secret compartment for an AirTag

It’s not crazy big. Definitely a bit bigger than the Apple case. I have an Apple style case for my quest 3 and I prefer this briefcase style.

I saw that case, and I think it's very nice and protective and you can attach padlocks to it, but I wanted something that didn't call much attention.

After trying multiple cases for a few days (thank you, Amazon Prime!) I decided to keep this very compact case: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CGRX8MGN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It took some time to figure it out to be able to fit:
• Vision Pro with Single Loop Band
• Vision Pro battery
• AC Adapter with USB-C charging cable + USB-A to Lighting Cable
• 30,000 Battery Pack
• Magic TrackPad
• Foldable Bluetooth Keyboard ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01JA6HG88/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 )
• Cleaning microfiber cloth
