Customers are saying

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.

    These are my go to for everything now. I can pair them to my TV, my phone, I can link them to my PC with the dongle and my PS5 with the dongle. They're comfortable and fit in my ears without the worry of falling out if I'm eating or talking. Don't hesitate and give these a try.

    These are what I have been searching for for my Xbox for like 3 years until I found these. Have to reconnect them more often than the normal over the ear headphones but still so worth it to have this option!

    The sound is amazing crisp and sharp with very good deep base. But the mic is like most other ear bud type mics it gets the job done but isnt amazing. But you definitely want these for the sound quality, the presets are a great touch

    Incredible battery life. I have worn them over 6 hours strait and they never cut off. The sound is ok. My JBL TWS definitely sounded better. The range of the 2.4 is kind of weak but that not a big issue for me.

    Versatile Earbuds

    I bought these for their ability to be used on PS and Xbox. The quality of sound and microphone isn’t as good as I’d hoped but I love that I don’t have to use 2 separate headsets for the 2 consoles. If you’re looking at these for that specific reason they are definitely worth it. If you’re wanting crystal clear sound and microphone, you may want to look elsewhere. Battery is comparable with some higher end earbuds. A lot of off brands have much longer battery life though.

    I was a bit skeptical about gaming buds as I have both Steel Series Arctis 7 and Turtle Beach Stealth 700’s that I am really happy with. But I wanted something smaller that weren’t headphones - mainly for single player gaming. These are really nice and work great. I’ve read complaints that the ANC isn’t great but for me just changing the included silicone eartips made a huge difference. I’ve only used them for single player gaming so far so I can’t comment on the mic but I’m very pleased with them so far!

    Nice, but sometimes it does sound like the speakers are blown. Unsure if I just received a faulty one. When I use it for my phone, the sound doesn’t sound blown. May just need to adjust audio setting on my game too.
