I am really satisfied with these for my Meta Quest 3 controllers!
I wanted something that would protect my controllers as I sometimes do hit walls and other objects since I am usually in a small space and these seem to do that job well. I have hit a wall once with these and they seemed to protect the controllers just fine.
In addition to that, having the straps has been a nice addition. I wondered how useful this really would be but I am finding it very useful for a few reasons such as when I need to take a moment to adjust my headset straps and this allows me to do that using my fingers without having to set down the controllers entirely.
I have iffy feelings about the battery bay. On the one hand, I am grateful for the fact that I have easy access to the battery now and don't need to fidget with the button and worry about losing it and putting it back on...now it's just a matter of pulling back the rubber gasket and taking the battery out, putting a new one in, and back to playing. I'm iffy because now I have to store the battery bay door somewhere else and this new battery bay rubber gasket seems to not close completely. I feel that it's a matter of time before it doesn't close completely, as is the case with most of these rubber gaskets (think things like the PSP and Nintendo Switch cartridge doors that never fully close right after many uses). On the other hand, no pun intended, Meta has done a fantastic job at battery management and changing batteries is not all that common so this may not be an issue for a while.
The feel of the rubber silicone feels nice in the hands and is a good grip for the controllers versus the plastic feel. Also helps for longer play and not losing the controllers because of sweat buildup. But you do also have the straps for this, so there is also more less to worry about there.
I have read other reviews talking about the piece holding the straps and didn't even think of this. But others had mentioned worries of the plastic piece holding the straps digging into your skin and causing irritation.
I can confirm that that does not happen here, at least for me. I do notice imprints on my skin from the plastic pieces holding the straps, but I do not feel any discomfort for long periods of play (thinking 45 mins to 1 hour of continuous play) because of this. I didn't feel anything but just checked because I was curious and found the imprint on my skin. Maybe the feeling could arise for longer play time? I usually get tired and need a break before hitting 1 hour, so I am unlikely to experience this, personally.
Overall, I am satisfied with these and would recommend them. My brother is thinking of getting some for his too!

I noticed that when I use them, they don't move around on the controller - the grip is just excellent. As with everything that I have ever bought from Kiwi, the quality is top notch.
They were very easy to put on and I love the little touch of the battery tab. This has made it so much easier for me to change batteries mid VR session because I don't need to take my headset off to change them.
They are very comfortable in my hand and they don't rub or cause any irritation. They do not block the sensors around the edge of the controller - I never lost connection or had decreased tracking with these on.
I have tried a lot of hand grips for my Quest 3 and I can say, without reservation, that these are my very favorite. 100% would recommend.
