Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the Arctis GameBuds offer good sound quality, comfortable fit, and satisfactory battery life. The inclusion of a USB-C dongle slot and effective active noise cancellation are appreciated features. Some find the bass response could be improved. The availability of numerous EQ presets and low latency 2.4Ghz wireless support are also positives.

    Great sounding earphones and very easy to use. The mic could be better though.

    Excellent earbuds for PC gaming. Spacial audio sounds good and noise canceling works great. Automatically switches to your phones Bluetooth if you answer a call. Seamlessly goes back to 2.4 mode after call. Awesome feature.

    A Great Replacement for Logitech GFits

    I wish there was a way to do 4.5 because there are some minor issues, but overall these are very good. I switched over from the Logitech GFits to these and they outperform the GFits in every way except for comfort/fit and connection resilience. CONS: Steel Series GG app is better than Logitech GHub but that really isn't saying much. The interface is cumbersome to say the least and while updating firmware for these was a breeze compared to the GFits this software could be improved significantly with some QoL improvements. These really do not fit me well at all. Trying all 3 tips that came with them I have various issues compared to the GFits. They fall out easily either due to the tips being too small or too big and don't expect to be able to do things like smile or eat food while you have them in without risking them dropping. PROS: Something I didn't realize was a feature is actually one of my favorite parts. If you're connected to the 2.4 dongle in "pc" mode you still receive calls/audio in bluetooth mode pretty seemlessly. So if you're working or gaming and you get a call the bluetooth audio overrides the game audio which is perfect for me. These are pretty high quality and water resistant as well. Having push button control rather than a "touch" interface on the ear pieces is kind of strange but it does prevent accidental activations for the most part.

    Little overpriced. Sound quality is good, but sometimes flickers with high bass.

    Great set of earbuds. I love the option of using Bluetooth and the dongle. Especially since it allows them to be used with everything. The software is good. Its nice to use an app on your phone or the software on the computer to make changes. Noise cancelation helps drown out outside sounds but they aren't completely gone.

    I bought the steel series gaming earbuds at the beginning of April and they have been great. Easy to pair with clear sound and the mic works well for communication. I can also use them for my phone like any other Bluetooth earbuds. Highly recommend

    Great earbuds that I wouldn’t even consider to be “gaming” do they sound great on PC and PS5 for video games? Of course they do but they also just sound great for music and phone calls as well. The microphone quality is surprisingly good for earbuds as well.

    I absolutely love the Steel Series Gamebuds! My mother board has a fried Bluetooth chip so I can’t connect anything to it but here comes Steel Series with a solution. True. Wireless. 2.4 ghz connection via dongle. I haven’t gotten started on the battery life. These bad boys last me it seems like a week before I have to even charge the holder/charger.
