Customers are enthusiastic about the Arctis GameBuds' sound quality, comfortable fit, and impressive battery life. The earbuds are also appreciated for their portability. However, some users have reported connectivity issues and have found the active noise cancellation to be subpar. Additionally, a few users have noted that the bass could be improved and the volume may be low during online use.

    I was hesitant at first, now I wouldn’t look back, The only concern is the ear phones either pausing or playing by themselves when being removed from ear but other than that great product I use them daily I sleep with head phones and they work great for that aswell, Over all I’d say if you are on the fence about them just do it buy em and give em a shot if not return em

    I can't believe how good it sounds for its size. It's also very comfortable for me, I actually don't feel them at all like with my AirPods pro or Beats Fit Pro.

    Overall, I like this product alot. I have the Steelseries Arctics Nova Pro Wireless, and love those, but at work, I dont like having the big headphones on for meeting, so I was looking for a pair of earbuds with a dongle. These ones were exactly what I want, and I have no regrets. A few things to note, the ear tips are not great, I am ordering some universal foam tips for them and expect the issue to be solved. The dongle connectivity is kinda weak, but I am in a new environment that has pretty thick walls. The SteelSeries GG software is what helps the most, it lets me use my earbuds with my external microphone without any issues. They sound good, and even better with the software. The microphone sounds okay, but again, with the software, you can make it sound more clear.

    Im so sick of these companies forcing people to have to have a mac or pc to upgrade. They have an app (finally!) and yet they havent added any of their older headphones, and you cant update? Everything but that is great. Out of the box these are the blandest headphones you’ll ever hear but with the app you can choose different presets and sounds for games that works pretty well. Also the app feels like its still in beta. One issue too, is unlike the series 7’s you can connect to 2 devices. Not a huge deal but something i love about my series 7. These are also comfortable but thats dumb to say since everyone has a different shaped ear.

    I really love these headphones. They sound great and work really well for gaming which is good because that’s why I bought them. Also they are easy to make your presets and save them to your app. Also the app has plenty of presets for different games that work really well. There are a couple drawbacks but I still love them. The mic is far from your mouth so it seems like others sometimes have a hard time hearing you over party chat Second is I have issues from time to time connecting to Bluetooth after my PlayStation. With that being said I do not regret my decision and would recommend them.

    Sounds way better than my other headsets. Specially when it comes to hearing footsteps. Everyone has different opinions with media/music but I would say that it sounds ok but I primarily use these for gaming. Only issue I have with this is the screeching noise on the left side while using transparency.

    The look good and sound pretty okay. Battery life is actually as good as advertised, which I find very impressive. Biggest issue is with connectivity. Random disconnects occur once every couple of hours on average. Sometimes go days without issues, sometimes disconnect every few minutes. Sent them back for an RMA in hopes I had a bad unit, to no avail. Disconnects only last a few seconds at most, but it is super annoying in the middle of a game, I use these strictly for video calls and use Arctis Pros for gaming.

    These are great set of earbuds. The sound quality over bluetooth via my phone is pretty good with the ANC settings. Not at as good as my AirPods for my iPhone but only slightly so, even with the preset EQ settings. Switching over to 2.4 ghz via the dongle for gaming on my Switch, PS5 and PC are a different story. Sound quality is definitely better in this mode, in my opinion. Even better with the preset EQ settings that you can choose from. I have a SteelSeries Arctic Nova 7 that I use for PS5 and PC and those are definitely better, but these are a great alternative for when those start to clamp down on my head a little much.
