    I’ve been really impressed with these headphones. They’re extremely comfortable, even during long listening sessions, and the sound quality is excellent – clear, rich, and well-balanced. Whether I’m working, relaxing, or on the go, they deliver a great audio experience. Definitely a solid purchase!

    They are good headphones but over time the aux cord makes the audio cut out the right headphone

    my sons are serious gamers and this headset is the best hands down. the clarity and crispness of the sound is amazing. the weight of the headset is not too heavy and yes can be worn for a long time without bothering their heads. The mic is also great. it is retractable and great for travel. Others do not offer this in this way. Value is great also. No need to shop around this is the one you want and need

    I actually very rarely use the Arctis Nova headsets for gaming, as the Novas have a fairly neutral sound profile with a high-treble cut to soften sibilants, which, while great for chatting over games, is also great for all types of content and makes them particularly ideal for Zoom meetings. The overall subdued look also means that they work for professional applications as well. Using the "Engine" software to boost the 3k range by 4db greatly flattens the sound profile; I have even used these to mix punk rock tracks. Most importantly, the Arctis Nova headsets are supremely comfortable. I actually use the 3's because of their USB-C connection, but bought the 1's for my wife who literally does not game at all. She found it very difficult to find in-ear headphones that did not hurt her ears, and over-ear headphones tend to give her headaches. The lightweight frame, breathable cushions, deep cups, and stretchy "ski-band" head cushion all make these one of the most comfortable headsets either of us have ever worn. Other reasons I love the Nova 1's: 1. The mic retracts neatly into the housing; my wife uses these exclusively as headphones and they work excellently for that purpose. 2. The cable is detachable from the ear cups, which means that a damaged cable can be replaced easily. You won't have replace the entire headset due to a damaged cable. 3. The onboard volume wheel and mic mute buttons are useful, particularly in online meetings. Overall, for the price, the Arctis Novas make excellent all-around headphones and a great gaming or business headset. A great "do-it-all" solution for gamers and non-gamers alike.

    I gave this headset a 4 star because there wasn’t a way for me to give it a 3.5 star, that being said on the box it said that this is the best gaming headset. I hadn’t heard anything bad about this brand everyone named this brand when I asked which headset would they recommend for gaming and 8 out of 10 people would say this one. It works really really good with my PS5 I mean you hear every single noise in the game as if you were the character in the game when you turn the noise follows you as a real person. Too bad I can’t say the same when I use it on my XBox series S. When I’m playing my games on my Xbox the sound is half the amount as when I’m playing on my PS5. Even though I have the volume all the way up it’s not the same sound quality. Still a very good headset closes out all noise from around you so you can only hear the game

    Excellent sound quality, super comfy and easy to use. For the price I'm super shocked how great this headset works. Highly recommend it and yes it actually does work for PC, Xbox and PlayStation as said. I was skeptical of that part but happy to know it's true.
