I doubled the battery life of my Quest 3 thanks to this charging belt, and wearing it for VR games wasn't as weird as I thought it'd be

A reviewer holding up the PrismXR Carina charging belt.

In Norse mythology, Thor doesn't just have his famous hammer; he wears a belt called Megingjörð, which makes him even more powerful. I'm not totally surprised that the MCU version of the character doesn't make mention or use of this accessory, because it's definitely one of his quirkiest belongings. As Meta Quest accessories go, PrismXR's charging belt feels like a similarly bizarre and out-of-place sidekick to a wireless headset, but actually, I think this brand might be onto something.

The battery life of the Meta Quest 3 and 3S isn't the reason they appear on our best VR headset list, so they could definitely use a boost. The problem is that the most popular way of bolstering their battery is with a pricey head strap that has a battery pack on it. Adding more weight to the headset certainly doesn't feel ideal, especially if you already find wearing a headset uncomfortable, or you tend to suffer from motion sickness while playing VR.
