Great Wireless Headset
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got these to stop using my over-the-ear Arctis Nova 7 and protect my hair from the headband; ironically the main reason i went with a Nova. I have been using these primarily with my PC and the reciever with comes with for the last two months. I would not recommend them for microphone quality, but it works in a pinch. Its hard to justify the cost at the moment coming in at around $180; fortunately i had a few coupons that helped make this a worthwhile purchase.

Great gaming earbuds
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great earbuds for gaming. If you don’t care about getting announcements from iPhone they also are great for phone usage!
I would recommend this to a friend Good quality earbuds
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A little difficult to get setup at first, but once I got it figured out it works great!
I would recommend this to a friendListings need to better differentiate models.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So apparently there are 2 itterations of these buds. One set that works on Xbox, PlayStation, switch and PC...and one that works on all previously mentioned minus the Xbox. Obviously after researching to see if they will meet my needs, I clicked and ordered the wrong ones. When setting up they non Xbox buds are called arctis buds and the Xbox compatible buds are called arctis buds x. This however is not listed that way here on best buy. Plus I'm not sure why you'd want to buy the set that doesn't support a certain platform, when the other equally priced set does. Anyway, they seem to work as advertised and I love the inclusion on qi charging for the case on PC/console earbuds. No I can use the. As my everyday earbuds.

I would recommend this to a friend Unable to Use
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The quality of these headphones are great, but it’s unnecessarily complicated to connect. After several forum reads, video tutorials, etc. I wasn’t able to connect them. I bought a new another one to see if it was a product defect, but same problem unfortunately. I was attempting to connect to PC

Earbuds
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great set of earbuds! The noise cancelling is really good - can’t hear anything from the outside.
I would recommend this to a friend I think there is a firmware issue
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second pair of these buds and they were everything I wanted for the price. However I think their firmware updates have affected the mic input level on the left earbud. I cannot use it for communication anymore if I just want to useity by itself. This also happened to the first pair I had too. I think the firmware update did something to break the ability for the left earbud ti increase mic input volume. A shame. One would figure SteelSeries would have sufficiently tested these updates before rushing them out the door
I would recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Battery life

Not Steelseries’s best product
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ive had/still have many Steelseries products and have been pleased with them until these ear buds. I had non stop connection issues mainly in one ear bud, even with my pc only 3 feet away. Literally every 5 minutes one bud would completely cut out for about 20 seconds until it reconnected, then rinse and repeat. It made them just unusable and i was forced to return them. I also wasn’t impressed with the sound quality overall especially from a Steelseries product.

Comfortable
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable. Haven't gamed with them yet, but so far very pleased.
I would recommend this to a friend Great for ppl who hate over the head headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am not a fan of over the head headphones and these work fantastic. I would say it is for the Casual gamers most likely. But I love the app and how I can connect to my phone and take phone calls in the middle of the game and it switches automatically in between. I use these on my xbox with the adapter provided in the package. I love the option of having both or just one earphone in as well. Lots of options for sounds profiles as well! Great Job Steel Series!
