Woojer Vest 3 and Strap 3: The Next Level of Immersion for VR Gaming (2025)

The Meta Quest 3S is the latest iteration in the Meta Quest VR headset series, and it brings the immersive VR experience to a larger audience thanks to its cheaper price tag. While the headset is not as powerful as the Quest 3, it can run the same games, albeit at a lower resolution. This helps contribute to better battery life and longer gaming sessions without being tethered down.

There are a few third-party devices that claim to improve the immersion when playing VR games, but Woojer, with its Vest 3, takes things to another level. Woojer has partnered with Meta to be part of the ‘Made for Meta’ program where devices work with Meta to optimize the experience and improve immersion. Devices that are part of the program come with a Made for Meta badge that tells buyers they can trust the device and that it will work seamlessly with the Quest VR headsets.

The Woojer Vest 3 is a vest that you put on and its six Osci TRX2 transducers create powerful and accurate feedback based on the game you are playing. It offers 360-degree haptic feedback thanks to strategically placed oscillators and the vest itself is thinner, has a wider frequency response, and works with any wireless Bluetooth headset. It is made from breathable materials that make the vest comfortable to wear over long durations, regardless of whether you are standing or sitting.

Not just for gaming, the Woojer Vest 3 is great for experiencing movies and music as well. It will translate the thump and micro sensations in movies into physical feedback on your body. Similarly, the music listening experience is enhanced as well. But this comes at the cost of wearing the vest while watching a movie or listening to music, which may not always be possible or comfortable.

The Woojer Vest 3 comes with an integrated control panel on the left side that lets you control the settings on the vest. There is also a configurable DSP that has multiple presets to choose from and phase control for flexible use of headsets and speakers. Woojer has also taken into consideration the latency over a Bluetooth connection and has implemented latency compensation control.

Woojer Strap 3

TheWoojer Strap 3 is a more compact version of the Vest 3, and it comes with a single Osci TRX2 haptic transducer. It comes with Bluetooth 5.0, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a USB Type-C port. The Strap 3 can last up to 8 hours on a single charge, and it takes about 3 hours to charge completely.

For those who find the whole vest to be somewhat cumbersome, Woojer also has the Strap 3 that brings haptic feedback for the body in a compact strap style accessory that wraps around your chest. Instead of the six Osci TRX2 transducers, there is a single transducer that sends haptic feedback to the body. There is Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity to use wireless headsets and a DSP for high-quality audio through wired headsets.

Because of its compact form factor, it is much lighter and more portable than the Vest 3. It also comes in many different colors and can be worn around the waist as well, depending on the use case. Additionally, the Strap 3 has an LED ring that can be customized through the Woojer app.
