    Bought these for my teenage son, who carefully selected them due to specs and positive reviews. He loves the long battery life and greqt sound for gaming or music.

    Pretty solid. They have sound that’s probably just average for mid-tier headphones but there’s no latency due to the included 2.4 ghz transmitter.

    Love these things. Conventional headphones get uncomfortable after long periods of times, these work for 10+ hours at a full charge.

    These compare well to AirPods Pro and outperform Sony's Explore earbuds, which have an audio delay in Bluetooth mode (Arctis has no delay). I'm glad I returned them for this. Bonus: it supports Qi wireless charging, plus you can adjust EQ settings through their app on your phone, access more options, and get firmware updates when connected to a PC.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    Was very hesitant to buy gaming earbuds....so glad I did. Outside of the chance I'll drop and lose them I live the sound. I play battlefield 6 on PS5 and I can hear footsteps in the midst of battle. Great purchase.

    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.

    Excellent sound and easy to use. I love not having giant cans on. Microphone could be a little better but it’s can be adjusted in sound menu. The app is great too. Got it on sale for 125.99 and that’s a amazing deal!

    This brand in any of the products teamed with sonar is something that everyone would buy if they knew. But you only know what you know so keep on not hearing footsteps while I hear them alllll. Muahahahahah
