    My boyfriend games and he did not enjoy the sound on it. He said it sounded very light even with volume all the way up.

    Charged them, connected to my phone with Bluetooth and wired to my Xbox controller. I could tell something wasn’t quite right when I first put them on but I thought maybe I needed to adjust. Then the right ear just gives out. And will not come back on. Very disappointed.

    Poor Audio Quality While Using Microphone - PC

    From SteelSeries themselves: The Arctis 3 Bluetooth switches between two profiles, A2DP, which is one-way, and HFP which is two-way, but much lower quality. If you're running an app or game that uses the mic, then you need to have both your default playback and recording devices set to the Hands-free device in Windows. Windows will automatically switch playing audio to the two-way (and lower quality) audio device when it detects that the mic is in use.

    The worst headphones I've every had

    I've talked to customer support for steelseries multiple times, and have never been able to simultaneously have the microphone work AND have the headset not make popping noises at the same time. The popping doesn't show up on any other headsets, the microphone problems don't show up on any other headsets, and I have 20$ pairs that are more comfortable and provide better sound quality when speaking. Without a doubt, the worst headphones I've ever had, I'm going to avoid steelseries loot like the plague, and I'm a bit frustrated that COVID kept me out of the return window.

    While it worked it was great…… but 7 months later and the Bluetooth started to kick out…. Did a reset worked fine for just over 15 min then kicked out again.

    Overall I liked these headphones for their sound cancellation capabilities and overall quality, however that was very short lived. Exactly a month after my one year manufacturers warranty expired, the left earphone died on me. I took great care of them, but it looks like planned obsolescence to me. They should be ashamed of this.
