The ZyberVR Dual Handles for Quest 2 are a pair of passive controller extension grips for the Meta Quest 2, manufactured by the Virtual Reality accessory brand ZyberVR and released in 2022.[1][2] Each handle clips over the protective tracking ring of an Oculus Touch controller and extends it into a longer, foam-covered grip, with the goal of giving players a sturdier and more natural hold during fast, motion-heavy games such as Gorilla Tag, Beat Saber, and various VR Fitness titles.[1][3][4] Because the handles only physically lengthen the controllers and do not contain any electronics, they require no pairing, charging, or software, and the controllers continue to track and report input normally.[1][2]
The Dual Handles are one configuration within a wider family of interchangeable ZyberVR Quest 2 handle products. The same basic clip-and-handle system is also sold as a multipurpose "3-in-1" set that adds a connecting tube to form a single long two-handed stick, and as an "All-in-One" fitness version with weighted handles.[2][3][5] Reviewers generally describe the accessory as a comfortable, low-cost way to improve grip and immersion in swing- and reach-based games, while noting that mounting handles over the controllers makes the face buttons and triggers awkward to reach.[2][3][4]
Design and construction
The Dual Handles consist of two molded handles, each paired with a clip that fits over the white plastic tracking ring of a Quest 2 Touch controller. The controller slides into the holder and is secured so that the handle becomes an extension of the controller's grip.[3][1] ZyberVR specifies that the handles are made of anti-flame ABS plastic, chosen to be lightweight and rigid, and finished with a thick anti-slip foam or sponge cover intended to reduce vibration and absorb sweat during long sessions.[1] Hand straps are included to reduce the risk of a controller being dropped or thrown during energetic play.[1]
ZyberVR markets the attachment point as a "quick-release buckle" that holds the handle to the controller firmly without wobbling, and uses a "hollow-out" (open) design around the tracking ring so that the headset's cameras can still see the controller's infrared tracking constellation without obstruction.[1] In hands-on testing the multipurpose version of the kit was found to ship with two color-coded handles, two labeled controller clips, two thick wrist straps, two silicone "halo" casings that fit around the tracking rings, and a connector tube used to join or extend the handles, all assembled with pictorial instructions.[2][3]
Configurations
Across ZyberVR's Quest 2 handle range the same components can be arranged in several ways. The Dual Handles product covers the dual configuration; the multipurpose and All-in-One sets bundle the additional parts needed for the long and golf-style modes.[2][3][5]
| Mode | Setup | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| Dual handle | One handle clipped to the end of each controller, lengthening both | Swing and reach games such as Gorilla Tag, Beat Saber, Fruit Ninja VR and rhythm or fitness titles[1][3] |
| Long handle | Both controllers joined to a central tube to form one long, two-handed stick | Two-handed games such as kayaking, rowing or paddling titles[2][3] |
| Golf / short handle | A single extended grip on one controller | Golf-style swing games[2][3] |
The weighted "All-in-One" variant adds removable weights inside the handles for added stability and resistance during exercise, and is listed with a total weight of about 600 g; it is a separate, higher-priced product rather than the basic Dual Handles set.[5]
Pricing and availability
ZyberVR sells the Dual Handles direct through its online store, where the set has carried a list price of US$24.99 and has frequently been offered at a lower promotional price.[1] The product is also distributed through third-party retailers and listed on Amazon.[6] The more fully featured multipurpose "3-in-1" kit has been listed at around US$34.99, and the weighted All-in-One fitness set higher still, reflecting the additional handle parts and weights they include.[2][5]
Reception
Hands-on reviews of the ZyberVR handles have been broadly positive on comfort, build, and value, with consistent caveats about button access. Writing for Churape's Dungeon and Stuff, a reviewer described the multipurpose sticks as made of "good quality plastic" with comfortable foam padding and easy pictorial assembly, and reported that they "worked perfectly" in Beat Saber, delivering "a more immersive experience, a comfortable grip, and slip protection." The same review's main complaint was that "anything that involved the buttons or triggers became awkward," concluding the accessory is a worthwhile but non-essential extra.[2]
VR Lowdown similarly praised the textured foam grips and the rigid, flex-free construction, noting surprise at how light the handles felt, and recommended them as versatile across genres including Gorilla Tag, Beat Saber, Blade and Sorcery, and golf and kayaking games. That review flagged that the controllers are held by a single clip rather than a redundant locking mechanism, which it considered a minor security concern during very vigorous play.[3] A separate unboxing and assembly review by creator Brian Sloan highlighted the low price and comfortable hold as the main strengths, while observing that the basic dual-handle package does not include the connector or weight pieces found in the larger sets.[4]
