Bought it for a friend’s birthday off recommendations. She knows nothing about computers. Thought it would be a simple headset to just plug in. Apparently had to download audio drivers and stuff. Coulda just been a problem on her end. Idk, I wasn’t the one to help her. Haven’t heard any complaints since then.

From monster to miestro

Great for the price I got it for - sound cancelling and comfort is surprisingly good, which I didn’t expect, given how inexpensive it was.
Sound comes through excellently, and folks on discord say I no longer sound like a monster (using old Logitech mic before).
I have only had it for a month so I can’t say how good wear and tear will be, but the strap design on the top helps me to know it’s going to last longer than the flakey pleather runner ups I’ve used in the past. It’s secure and of a good material.
Only reason I give it a 4/5 is that I wish it was a swing boom mic, because sometimes I’m fumbling trying to align the mic just-so, to store it away into its slot.

I bought this for my wife recently and honestly it’s a great headset for the price. I personally have the arctis 7 and the two compared in my opinion are not a crazy difference for your every day person. If you need a budget friendly headset this is the one for you. It’s comfortable and it gives you what you’re looking for.

I liked the comfort, but I have small ears, so they didn't fit me very well.

SteelSeries headphones deliver exceptional sound quality and comfort. The design is sleek and durable, making them perfect for long gaming sessions. The noise-canceling feature enhances immersion, while the adjustable headband ensures a perfect fit. Overall, a fantastic choice for gamers and music lovers alike!

As someone who has ears that stick out and whose head hurts after wearing typical headphones, these are super comfortable. The elastic band keeps my head from hurting and the ear muffs have enough space (with some adjustment) to keep my ears comfortable. And the mic works well too. Highly recommended.

QA Issues or bad luck?

I have owned products from another big name gaming component company exclusively for the last 14 years and finally decided to branch out and try something new. I went with SteelSeries because I recognize the brand name, heard good things about them and their pricing is great. I picked up the Arctis Nova 1 Headset and two SteelSeries keyboards, one for myself and one for my husband about a week ago. I set up my headset two days ago and straight out of the box, I could only hear out of one ear. I disconnected and reconnected the cord at all parts (three connections, three pieces - PC to another cord and then that cord plugs into the headset). I was then able to get sound out of both ears but within 5 mins or so, it cut out and I was back to sound on only one side. The only way to fix this was to unplug the middle cord piece and then replug it back in. I would have sound for 5-10 mins and then it would cut out and I had to do the same thing again. It was like this the entire time I tried it, up until about an hour ago when I returned it for a replacement. I understand that with electronics you will sometimes get duds. The thing with SteelSeries is that my husband set up his keyboard two days ago as well and the Windows key wouldn't work! Mine works fine but his didn't. Having 2/3 products purchased come to us with defects is not a good ratio. We did the exchange and things seem to be working well for us now and I do like the sound quality and feel of the head set so I will keep it and see how things go but I would be lying if I didn't say I was worried about the quality.

The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1 is a fantastic gaming headset for the price. The sound is clear and detailed, making it easy to hear important in-game audio like footsteps, and the mic works great for clear communication with teammates. It’s super comfortable, even during long sessions, and works seamlessly across multiple devices like PC, consoles, and phones. While the build isn’t super high-end, it’s lightweight and sturdy enough for regular use. Overall, it’s a great choice if you want solid performance without spending too much.

I've had this headset for 2 years and is a wonderful steelseries product. I only just realized it has been 2 years but even still I think that kinda proves that it's been amazing since I use it almost daily. Very durable as well although I've been very careful with it. I also love the cable extension too
