    Nearly perfect

    Almost perfect! Accidentally pressed the bluetooth instead of the power button and that caused it to be on discovery mode endlessly. I wasn’t able to stop it until I did a hardware reset. Other than that perfect batter life and connection!

    So, the headphones are very comfortable and the microphone is top tier, but the software for adjusting the levels is not super intuitive and I get robotic sounds at times when playing games.

    I'm a SteelSeries S--T

    And as such, it only made sense to update my Artis 3 to the Arctis 7. I took a leap of faith going wireless, and have thus far, not been disappointed! I love the volume adjust between chat and gaming, so I can have Youtube or Discord going and can effectively ignore chat if I need to focus more on the game at hand. I was worried about batterly life, but I've only had to charge it once in the 3ish weeks I've had it [I'm a filthy casual who plays for a few hours a night]. Overall, a satisfying and worthwhile product. Will continue to throw my money at SteelSeries for years to come.

    Definitely a good headset for casual gaming. The audio is balanced, not too much bass and not too much treble. The mic quality is the only downside to this headset.

    Really pleased with this headset. I feel like my previous headset had somewhat better sound but after a few days I was adjusted to it. I really like how customizable it is and the fact that the battery life lasts incredibly long. I charge it every couple days and I use it for hours a day so that’s really awesome. I also like that the mic is retractable. I’ve been told while gaming that my mic doesn’t sound very great which was disappointing as I was really needing a better mic but otherwise I really like it

    very comfortable, lightweight. Sound quality is great. The only downside is the large usbc dongle, it covers my only usb slot on my laptop so I can't use anything else plugged in unless it is bluetooth.

    I tried nearly ten different headsets over the past couple years trying to find one that had spatial audio with great quality sound. I was hesitant to purchase these as I was not fully familiar with Steel Series. I finally purchased these and I can honestly say I may never go back to any other brand. These exceeded every expectation I had, especially for the price point. I had purchased headphones at higher price points that these surpassed easily. If you are even on the fence about getting a pair, go for it. These do not disappont and major kuddos to the team who designed a phenomenal headset with quality all the way through.

    Good sound quality, easy to connect to Bluetooth. Charges quickly. Microphone sound quality could be better but it does the job. Solid head phones, comfortable around ears for a few hours.

    The sound quality is okay. Not the best. The microphone is okay as well. Nothing to write home about. The bluetooth and 2.4 ghz at the same time is really good. I didnt realize how nice it is until i started using it. So my point is this headphone does everything "okay." If you want better sound you need to buy a spelized headphone and it probably wont have a mic. And the same for the mic. It is a great all in one headphone with some good software.

    Turns off automatically occasionally at first. Had a software update and then didn’t auto connect to the Bluetooth receiver without having to unplug and replug in. Friends say I sound robotic often. I think if all depends on placement of mic. Hopefully it will be good as I get used to it.

    The best headphones I've ever used while gaming on pc, you can be connected through the dongle and have bluetooth connected to another device for music, truly an incredible pair of headphones they've designed.

    Decent hardware ruined by awful software

    I like this headset. But the more I use it, specifically with SteelSeries' GG software, the more I get annoyed. The "Sonar" feature is buggy and overwhelming. It splits your audio into 5 different adjustable channels so you can mix them easier. But I don't need 5 channels, let alone even 2.. Windows has built in audio mixing, so does every app, I don't need layer on layer of volume sliders. The amount of random mysterious bugs I've encountered with audio have all funneled to Sonar being the cause. I had a bug where I disabled Sonar as to not flood my audio output options in Windows, and my headset got stuck at 100% volume. The only way I could lower it was the physical switch. Enabling Sonar would fix the issue, but I didn't want Sonar enabled.. You can't remove or hide the Sonar channels, so you'll have like 4000 audio outputs and it's frustrating and annoying to navigate through them honestly. The concept is cool on paper, but wow, it's poorly executed and just ends up being a convoluted nightmare. Mic quality is garbage, audio quality is... okay. Dual connection is awesome, simultaneously connecting to my phone and PC is something I've always wanted. It works well enough, very few bugs there. I can't really recommend this headset because of the pain that is the software.

    Good gaming headset, another win for steelseries

    A well built gaming headset that feels sturdy and sounds good. The mic leaves something to be desired, though, but it does the job. Battery life is solid, and the Bluetooth feature works seamlessly on iOS. Make sure you turn off the headset before charging though, as it got stuck in a weird state after I forgot to one time where it wouldn’t turn off and only play a loud static noise. The reset button in the hole under one of the ear cups is your friend in case this happens.

    Great Sound, not great PS5 compatibility

    Do what you want a headset to do. Sound is good, mic is fine. Comfortable, controls are ergonomic. Construction could be better, but it also keeps it on the lighter side. Issues are with the PS5 Audio Auto Switch integration. It doesn't work properly. So you have to do it manually everytime you want to switch between your main audio source and headset. Not a huge deal, just a heads up to future buyers. Overall it's a great headset for the price.

    So far so good. The quality for the price is fair. These have a nice weight to them, yet they are comfortable to wear. The sound is clear and have had no issues with people being able to hear me through the mic. This is my first purchase of a wireless headset and so far I'm happy with them.

    Highly Recommend: The Steel Series - Arctis Nova 7 Wireless Gaming Headset for PC has exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I unboxed this Headset The first thing that caught my attention was the comfortable ear cushions. The retractable microphone is a feature that I didn't realize I needed until I had it. The convenience of tucking away the mic when not in use is unmatched. In conclusion, the Steel Series - Arctis Nova 7 Wireless Gaming Headset for PC is the perfect blend of comfort, functionality, and superior audio quality. It is more than worth its price

    Great adjustable fit, great sound with customizable equalizer. Bluetooth ehile playing games is awesome. Every once in a while the audio gets scratchy for a few moments but then goes back to normal "connectivity issue with the dongle" overall good headset and would recommend.
