Satinior 4 Pack Face Pad Cover PU Leather Foam Face Replacement Cushion

I wouldn't call these replacements instead upgrades. The original foam face pads that come with the headset are abrasive, scratchy and absorbed all the sweat. These replacement pads are very different, they keep the sweat from being absorbed into the into the foam to then be held against your face during play time. These are much easier to clean, overall cooler, and more comfortable. I fully recommend making the change if you have a sweating issue when playing. The only recommendation to the maker is to include a plastic center piece that helps guide the pads to a perfect center when installing

Works great on Acer Windows Mixed Reality Headset! I was going to buy that one specially made for Acer that was double the price for a single pad, but this one for HTC Vive is pretty much the same size. Also, compared to the foam that came on the Acer, it is the same dimensions center to center, but the padding is just wider - more comfort. Because Acer doesn't have a built-in nose cover, with these new pads, there is tiny bit of light leakage, but you become aware of it only when you look way down with you eyes without moving your head. Otherwise, you don't even notice it in-game. I actually appreciate the little bit of visibility outside of the headset; if I want to know where I am in my room, I can quickly tell without having to lift up the headset. Highly recommend!

I gave four star because that is the current average and I did not want to alter the current consensus which seems reasonable if you buy it for the HTC Vive and not for the HTC Vive Pro. The pro model face pad is quite a bit wider. Installing these on the Pro leaves a lot of plastic visible and makes the nose space too small which is quite uncomfortable. I also found that the reduced size made it so that my glasses would not fit comfortable inside. I have played with a pro and a non pro, and my glasses were not a problem with either in the way that they were when you have a pro head set with a non pro face pad. If this pad gets made in a larger size suitable for a pro, It would be nice to see the following two changes. 1) The center marker to help correct positioning during installation. 2) The cutout on either side for the arm on a pair of glasses. I have attached three pictures. 1) The original vive pro pad laid flat over this non pro pad, pushed flat bu a ruler. 2) This pad installed on the pro. Notice the left and right sides as well as the nose spacing. 3) My original HTC Vive Pro face pad, a perfect fit and extremely comfortable.

Wow these are amazing! cheap and comfortable and I love that they came in a multi pack so I have replacements to swap out when I have guests over. I get really sweaty and play nearly daily for exercise and the poor foam on the original pads were constantly drenched and stinky. The covering material on these is great they never really seem to get wet it’s always just my face, I can easily wipe these down and keep them clean.

How great is the HTC Vive!?!?! I love it so much I have invited my work buddies over to test it out. The only problem is that my work buddies are fairly big guys and when you play with the HTC Vive you tend to sweat. One friend of mine attacked both my ceiling fan and the wall but cause no damage. He was so vigorous that when he was done my stock face pad was sodden with his sweat. I didn't know this and after he left I put it on and about puked. I took it off and swapped it with another that came with the HTC Vive and immediately started looking for visitor pads that I would put on when others came over. I washed my original pads in soap and water and let them dry and they are fine. When I have visitors come over I take the soft ones off and put these on and no one knows the difference. These do not soak up sweat and are still very soft and pliable. I still have two that have not been used and I wipe them with a soft cloth if they get surface sweat or dirty. Great product, I will buy again if I need to but the four pack seems to have lasted for several months.

The padding is nice, but the quality control on the molding process needs improvement. Some pieces have excess mold flash that results in a razor-sharp ridge of plastic all around that can be downright painful where it presses into your skin. It can be removed by careful trimming with sharp scissors -- just be careful to trim evenly so you don't leave any sharp points.

These are a great replacement for the first generation vive headset. They are comfortable on the face and the 4 pack will last a long time.

This is a very good upgrade for not much money. Not only is it very comfortable, in my experience the visual fidelity in the Vive is very dependent on getting the lens as close to your eyeball as possible; these are quite thin compared to the original pad (see photo). I found the "sweet spot" where the lens has ideal focus to be more forgiving, and blur which escalates at the periphery to be much less pronounced. I find it difficult to get the original pad this close to my eyes, and it was the best part of using these pads, followed closely by a better feel to the material. A heads up to glasses wearers, I find this pad even more annoying to use in this regard than the original pad, which was already kind of annoying. I found the quick and dirty way was to put my glasses in the headset then put them on with the headset. I worry about them touching the lenses but I'm not really sure how else to handle it besides throwing in contacts or ordering prescription Vive lenses (which seems like a better idea every day). Where I need to warn you is if you sweat in your Vive and enjoy extended play sessions. Because it's smaller, and I don't think it is as evaporative or absorbent as the original pad, the headset seems to not handle sweat as well. I killed a headset recently, actually the first day I switched to this pad. I was playing a strenuous game (for me anyway) for a couple hours without any breaks. Eventually my headset went grey then it wouldn't be detected by SteamVR. I cracked it open and sure enough there was moisture which entered the headset by the microphone/seam where the shell connects and had worked its way to the sensors at either corner, where the most oxidization was visible. Since there isn't much space under the shell, tilting your head down or taking the headset off and setting it down will spread the problem. I can't really blame the pad for this happening, but I really don't think it helped. The thin pad was SOAKED in a way I'd never experienced with the OG pad. I am waiting for a HMD from Ebay to arrive to replace my dead one. When it shows up, I WILL use these still. The comfort and visual fidelity is worth the price of admission. But I will say, for a sweaty guy when I play sweaty games on a device that Google shows has a history of sweat damage, I need all the help I can get on that front, so I will stick to the foam pad which has proven itself to work better for me in the past in extended, strenuous sessions. I will stick to these pads when I'm playing low key or sit down games instead.

Es muy accesible el precio y de buena calidad , quedan perfectos para HTC VIVE.

Das Originalpolster von HTC hat sich gerne mit Schweiß vollgesogen und auf Dauer angefangen zu müffeln. Das passiert hier nicht. Die 11mm Dicke geben genügend Polsterung, wenn man das Kopfband der Brille nicht zu stramm einstellt, um einen bequemen Sitz für mehrere Stunden im VR zu geben. Das Kunstleder rutscht nicht auf der Haut. Und es lässt sich nach dem Tragen feucht abwischen. Zur Qualität über lange Zeit kann ich noch nichts sagen. Aber man hat ja noch 3 Polsterungen in Reserve, wenn das erste doch mal kaputt gehen sollte. Danach sieht es aber noch nicht aus. Die Passform ist übrigens auch gut. Ich habe es nicht mit Brille probiert, da ich selbst Korrekturgläser auf den Linsen stecken habe. Es gibt für Brillenbügel keine Aussparungen wie beim Originalschaumstoff von HTC. Bei größeren Brillen könnte das vielleicht problematisch sein.

Excellent produit !

The foam that comes with the headset is quite absorbent, so gets a bit gross after some of the more active games. These are mostly covered in leather-like material, so don't suffer from that problem. They are less pliable, but are about half as thick and do still cushion your face. They lack the locating tab that is on the stock foam but they're not hard to line up and are easy to adjust. The best bit is that I now have a set of cushions, so that my friend can have his own foam and we don't have to rub our faces in each other's sweat.

Good product and quality is very good and durable, money for value
