Yeah I’ll just get bobovr stuff through the factory in china, that’s actually where they create them plus it saves a few dimes. The Q2 charging dock is still available there ;).

[@darminiam]

Just adding what others are saying, I've had this for two weeks now, and for me this is great. Mainly because: 1) I love the grips that extend. It fits great with my large hands, and it's rechargeable. 2) I don't play the Quest 3 more than a couple hours at most at a time. Between this dock charging my headset and battery, this is more than enough than manually plugging everything in. 3) It displays my Quest 3 down in the garage. Right now, it's great. Yes, it's a luxury device, and I wasn't sure if it was worth the price, but I don't regret it. Thanks for the great review!

[@jaybratt]

@@darminiam I agree on all counts and I feel like if they somehow made it $60 everyone would be over the moon for it but that price does put it in a luxury class. My two are now my full time docks for both my quests though 😊

[@artIfactuaI]

I was waiting until you made this video. I have been looking for a charging dock recently and I have the s3 so this is perfect!

[@Paulie8K]

As a Bobo S3 Owner with 2 B100 batteries, simply charging one while the other is in use has been enough to keep me going with effectively unlimited battery life. Even though I don't have the fast charging dock, my second battery is always fully charged when I need to swop them out. This is def more a luxury purchase just for one to fill out the Bobo stack, especially for $99.

[@jaybratt]

Agreed! It feels like an Apple ecosystem a bit. The boboeco...

[@Eagledocstew]

GREAT review! I got the BOBOVR charging dock because it also charges the BOBOVR grips. I do find that the S3 with Oblik charges much more reliably with the PRISM XR Carina dock (“toilet bowl”) BUT, it will only charge their grips without silicone. I hope you will review what I think is the PERFECT COMBINATION-the “toilet bowl” charging the S3 and Aubika grips charging with cables. One more comment, I wish BOBOVR put a charging light in FRONT of the dock like every other freakin dock so u can see if the headset is charging! Now I gotta move the straps to see if the grips are charging, and peer into the left side of my headset to see if it is charging.

[@john_d_john13]

Another great and honest review. Thank you so much!

[@BashermechReal]

Yay we finally get a dock that can chrage through controller grips.

Yes... THEIR grips. We have another video coming testing multiple other grips and sadly the selection of others that work is far more limited than we initially thought.

I bought this Dock after seeing your review. I just received it the other day and have been using it. Setup was pretty easy and my only complain is that when I use the included wireless charging batteries the controllers will not turn on. Before you ask, I doublechecked the to make sure I have the correct battery in the correct controller and in the correct orientation, matching the '+' on the battery with the '+' on the controller. When installer and on the dock the light on the dock for the controller stays lit for awhile then goes out but never seems to charge. 1) have you heard of this problem before? 2) are there other wireless replacement batteries I can buy without having to go through BOBOVR?

[@Clairsentien]

Thanks for keeping it real.

[@LiLAlien69]

Finally! Cool!

[@jaybratt]

Hey Alien!

[@allbecomesiron]

I don’t know about all this single-use charging gear for controllers. I use standard rechargeable Ni-MH 2500 mAh AA cells and they work great. Then I can recharge them in a standard charger, plus I use the same cells in other wireless controllers and anything needing a AA. Something to think about if you want a rechargeable solution that gives a lot of value elsewhere also. Certainly not as convenient if all you want to charge is controllers and don’t mind throwing away alkaline cells for other devices.

[@donovan6320]

I personally use some Eneloops myself for charging the controllers and definitely offers more value everywhere else and allows you to keep the quick swapping batteries without the expense of alkaline batteries, in addition to being able to charge anything else

[@bluebell1]

I wish BoboVR would produce the old D2 dock for the Quest 3. I don’t need a charger for the grips. I gave the BoboVR 3 battery fast charger and that works great. I did have an issue with the charging cable but Bobovr sent me 2 new cables FOC.

[@MrTasselhof]

I find the PrismXR Dock is working out okay for me... a bit more compact and I use my own 3D Printed Grips/Gunstock which uses bare controllers... so works for me.

[@Eagledocstew]

I also think the PRISM XR Carina is the better charging dock for the headset

[@AJCoReTV]

Prism XR is the king.

[@BigZ971]

My issue with the PrismXR is I use the active straps, and I absolutely love them. But to use the charging pad, I'd have to get rid of them, and I dont have the original straps anymore.

[@MrTasselhof]

@@BigZ971 definitely fair and an issue with most docks unfortunately... No easy way to be universal grip

[@AsterionVrGiveaways]

Thanks!❤❤❤

[@dtann]

I'd buy this but I'm not too happy with the headstrap because it's already cracking in multiple places after only a few months

[@jaybratt]

Really?? I hadn't heard of that. You should contact bobo. I bet they'll replace it for free for you. Tell them I sent you :)

[@dtann]

​@@jaybrattworth a try thanks

[@SongStudios]

Honestly for me, it is actually easier to rest the headset somewhere and have it almost consistently charge (it's actually somewhat seldom that it doesn't), instead of taking out the cable and plugging in a new one. Same goes for the bobovr battery and the controllers.

[@anarfox]

Needing it's own proprietary battery covers is a bummer. I already have a pair of battery covers with integrated straps I want to keep using.

[@jammyrex6650]

Great analysis. Did you test to see if the Quest 3 with the AMVR facial interface fits on it?

Question plz, with the Meta Quest Active Straps it is possible to charge easily or is just with bobovr controler strap ?

[@bringhurstvr]

I really like the official charging dock. It's overpriced, but I like it.

[@jaybratt]

It's not cheap but it'll be my charger for both my primary Quests for the time being

[@bringhurstvr]

@@jaybratt yep. I've also come to like the ProGrips from ProTube. It's easier to remove them for charging than anything with a silicone wrap, and I've become spoiled by the extra large strap. Great episode.

[@JS-bp3ll]

Quick question, just got the dock today. Is it safe to leave the headset on the dock if fully charged?

[@Koolhacks]

I bought this dock and tried multiple facial interfaces. So if the facial interfaces has light guard for the nose it will not sit on the dock correctly. Had to switch back to the quest facial interface for the dock to charge.

[@mromutt]

Needing to use the stock interface would be a deal breaker for me! I dont know why they didnt just undersize the nose area on the dock, you only need the front of the quest to make it all line up then sit on the pins.

[@SaysSim0n]

[@laxlyfters8695]

I received mine yesterday and I love it. I also have the fast charging dock that i use with a anker 100w charger and the 2 batteries i have get charged so fast even when not using the fast charger i do love how once charged in the display it shows 100% and 0 watts being used by the charger. Which the other charging dock does not have so i have no idea how charged the controllers, headset or battery is.

[@Klovar]

hello. can you use the G3 grips WITHOUT the straps? i like to live dangerously and straps annoy me. thanks! keep up the great work

[@jaybratt]

Technically yes you can. They are removable and come off easily.

[@Klovar]

@@jaybratt thanks! i know the risks rofl im not gonna blame anyone but myself when / if i yeet a controller full force into a wall. plus, i might like the straps with the G3! still thinking about getting them, and this package looks nice 😁

[@TheWildcat_YT]

In EU steam decks charger seems to work fine for it.

[@jaybratt]

Nice! Probably high enough wattage

[@anarfox]

The Steamdeck charger is 45w.

[@TheWildcat_YT]

@anarfox Yeah, but that doesn't automatically make it compatible. My 40w phone charger doesn't work at all.

[@begoody]

Great review. But you didn't show if other grips would work with it. 4:23 if Bobovr makes one only for the controllers, that would be great. With the great batteries and 3x battery dock I see no need for this.

[@SnackXHunter]

Has Bobo addressed any of the issues since this video came out?

[@TeaGamingPanda]

Does the charging stop with the headset when it's fully charged or at 80% so it doesn't overpower the battery? Maybe a point in my life there will be a time I won't touch it for months, will it be safe to just charge there and not die and strain?

[@Dragorus360]

Does it charge 2 batteries? 1 on the headset and one on the dock?

[@-TK-421]

I find that the controllers using regular Batteries dont last as long as the quest 2. I have had to replace mine a lot more then what I feel is normal. I bought one of these to charge the external battery but also just put my headset and controllers on it and walk away. Then when I am ready to play they are all ready to go. I hope it works better then what you are saying.

[@jaybratt]

It works well enough and will be my go to dock for both my headsets. It just suffers the same pitfalls some other docks do but as I mentioned, it is the best one of them.

[@busterculver5966]

Maecker Rechargeable grip review soon?

[@PrincessNybor]

I’m curious if this dock will wirelessly charge through the battery door on the Meta hand straps? Or do you have to use the included battery door? I just haven’t ever found any other grips or hand straps that fit as well as Meta’s for my hands. And I’m not willing to trade off the comfort while playing, for the convenience of wireless charging. But if I could have both, that would be neat.

[@Eagledocstew]

Did u see the “$8 grip vs Meta grip” video? Jay compared the HZLucki hand strap and found it IDENTICAL to Meta’s, but obviously less expensive. May be moot since u already have the Meta handstraps

[@PrincessNybor]

@@Eagledocstew Yes! I saw that video… after I had already paid for Meta’s version. 😅

I tried the Meta dock and had an issue with it not charging the headset with a kiwi facial interface on, seems that and the Bobo dock you reviewed have the same issue, the nose area, I don't understand why they don't just leave the nose area clear on the docks, knowing the amount of customisation consumers want for devices like this.

I would like BoboVR to make a few battery charging options. Give a 1 battery and 2 battery chargers as well, with a reduced price. I don't need a 3 battery dock, so why would I buy that? Would like a single high output charge for a single battery. If I get another battery then I'm done I don't need 3 or 4.

[@RobDavies-o8t]

Just wondering if anyone will fetch out a dock to charge Quest 3 and the pro controllers?

[@mbucek1]

the question is if you leave it on the dock for days will it overcharge the battery or does it shut off kinda

[@jaybratt]

There's auto stops built in for the controllers, battery and headset. This has become pretty standard on all docks but cheaper ones I don't trust as much when they claim this. Although I have left my headset on every charger imaginable and have yet to melt a USB port so maybe I'm also lucky

[@mbucek1]

@@jaybratt great thanks so much for that didn’t realize a standard thing with bigger brands

[@CheriePie]

that would be my only reason for wanting this dock, the auto shut off to the power when the battery's full. Otherwise, I'm happy right now with my s3 headstrap, rechargeable Li-Ion batts, and the Kiwi stand controller (which I use more often as a stand than a charger since I have the boboVR battteries. I believe the Bobo batteries have that same feature though too... they stop charging the headset after it reaches 100%. (I just don't know when they start recharging it again-I never really tested that.)
