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.

    Kind of a weird way to setup but when you get them setup they’re good. Volume may be a little low when online

    Pretty good headset. The directional input for sounds wasn’t the greatest. I don’t fine it to have much better performance then my turtle beach stealth pros

    Great sound quality with awesome noise cancellation. Was pleasently surprised that they have sidetone too! For someone who travels and wants earbuds for gaming but also listening to music comfortably, these are perfect for you.

    These are some of the best buds out there !!!!! Would recommend to anyone. Small and Compact but pack a crazy punch. For FPS like COD I hear the footsteps like crazy and the direction it’s coming from game changer !!

    Great Gamer buds. No lag playing PCVR. Mic is trash so I stick to my headset mic. Luckily I didn't buy them for the mic.

    Awesome gaming buds! I travel a lot and got tired of the space my SteelSeries Arctis 7x took up in my bag, so I switch to the GameBuds. They work great with my gaming laptop, and being able to quick switch and take a phone is a great feature.

    They have a great fit, lots of use during gaming and staying home with chores to do. The transparency mode is great once you get it set up. Highly recommend for daily drivers.

    The sound on these are great, love being able to switch back and forth from phone to console. Finally some earbuds for my xbox. Ive had it not connect a couple times but just quickly unplugging the adapter and plugging back in fixed it.
