Put battery in the back to fix comfort
Quest is too front-heavy. Redesign it with the battery and possibly more in the back. I don't even want to use it because of how front-heavy it is. I'd rather use any other VR headset other than Odyssey+ over Quest for this reason. I've had DK2, Gear VR, Vive, Rift, PSVR, Odyssey+, Pimax 5K+, Vive Pro, Rift S, & Valve Index. Forehead comfort is a big Quest problem, and people shouldn't have to mod them to make them tolerable. I know people that modded on Vive deluxe audio straps AND big batteries in the back, and they said it still isn't comfortable.

If you have had those top of the line VR rigs Quest must be a step back for you, how could you think the comfort of a $400 headset could compete with $1000 mask. I purchased a VRNERGY battery that was designed for the Quest, and a silicone face mask to add to my Quest, now it is excellently counter weighted and comfortable

That's because the particularly hard/firm facial interface on the Quest is just as much a cause of the discomfort wearing it as the weight is.
