    I purchased this headset and within 7 days, I noticed it was having some technical defective issues. Once i muted the headset or even adjusted the voice volume rocker, I would no longer be able to hear other players. I would have to turn the headset off and back on to be eligible to hear them again. I contacted steelseries directly because I bought the last headset in stock at best buy. After explaining back and forth for multiple days, steelseries told me to return to bestbuy which is now on the 16th day which exceeds the return timeframe. After continuing to message them about the on going issue, they said they will replace it with a used recondition headset and that inhave to take pictures of me destroying the old headset. I dont think I should be receiving a used RMA headset for a new defective headset that was just purchased, therefore I discontinued the chat. Not to mention i had to wait a full day for them to reply. Based on this experience, i would never purchase their product again.

    sometimes when I start the Xbox app, it takes 20 minutes to get the headphones to connect!!! Would definitely not buy again! The plastic piece broke, which held the left headphone to the headset after only five months of use!

    Ear muff broke off of the headset after three weeks due to their poor design and build quality. These were not abused, ear muff broke off in my hand when removing. I reached out to best buy, they didnt help at all. Steel series had me send in videos and a picture and then refused to help because they don’t cover damage of any sort. Well of course not, but these werent damaged the ear muff popped off because it wasnt built right in the first place. Completely disappointed. Look out for more durable options, these are terrible and the company won’t stand behind their product.

    The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7X is amazing. Audio quality is crisp, clear, and super immersive, and the mic is great for squad chat. Very comfortable for long sessions, excellent wireless connection with zero lag, and battery life has been strong. This is my primary headset for Battlefield 6 and I love it, the directional sound and clarity really elevate the gameplay experience. Highly satisfied and definitely recommend for Xbox gamers.

    These headphones fit great and the sound is awesome. I wear glasses sometimes when I play on my Xbox and this is not an issue. They come synced to the Xbox right out of the box so that is a major plus. I’ve played days on a full charge which helps to keep you in the game. The only issue I do have is that I have to re-sync after a full charge. I’m sure once I figure that out I’ll be good to go. I’ve only had these a short time so I need to try chat and see how they work on other devices.

    I recently purchased the Nova 7X headset, and I’m beyond impressed with its performance! Here’s why I give it a solid 5 stars: 1. Comfortable Design: The headset is incredibly comfortable, even during extended gaming sessions. The memory foam ear cushions are soft yet sturdy, and the adjustable headband ensures a perfect fit. 2. Crystal-Clear Audio: The sound quality is phenomenal. The immersive spatial audio and deep bass make gaming, music, and calls an absolute pleasure. It truly feels like you’re in the middle of the action. 3. Excellent Mic Quality: The retractable microphone captures voice clearly without background noise, which is essential for multiplayer games and video calls. 4. Impressive Battery Life: I’ve used it for hours without needing to charge. It’s reliable, and the quick-charge feature is a huge plus. 5. Versatility: The Nova 7X works seamlessly across platforms. Whether I’m using it with my Xbox, PC, or mobile device, the performance is consistent and outstanding. This headset delivers on all fronts—build quality, sound performance, and convenience. Highly recommended for gamers and anyone seeking top-notch audio gear!

    A Solid Wireless Choice with a Few Drawbacks

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is a great headset for anyone looking for reliable wireless performance on Xbox. The connectivity is seamless, and the ability to use Bluetooth simultaneously is a fantastic feature. The battery life is also impressive, easily lasting through long gaming sessions. However, there are a couple of areas where it falls short. The main issue for me is the sound quality; while it's perfectly fine for chat and identifying in-game cues, it isn't the best. The audio can feel a bit flat and lacks the punch and immersion I've experienced with other headsets in this price range. Additionally, the fit isn't very adjustable. It relies on the elastic headband, and I struggled to find that perfect, secure fit, which might be an issue for some. Overall, it's a solid, convenient headset, but I can't call it excellent due to the average audio and limited adjustability.

    This is one of the few headsets that works with every platform and can simultaneously connect with phone while connected to PC or.console. Very comfortable with a neutral and well rounded sound that can be tweaked with the software on PC. Happy with the battery life. Works flawlessly with PC and Xbox. Works well with phone but I have to manually select. Microphone is clear. The surround works well in games but perhaps not quite as well as Dolby atmos for headphones which you can purchase separately for a few dollars.

    The Arctis Nova 7X Wireless Gaming Headset is an outstanding product that delivers exceptional quality and performance. The build quality is especially impressive — it feels durable, premium, and perfect for long gaming sessions. The materials and craftsmanship make it feel like a high-end device. One of the biggest surprises is how well it holds its own in a 1v1 against the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless. Despite the Pro being the more premium model, the Nova 7X matches it in many areas, particularly comfort and solid audio performance. The wireless connection is flawless, and the sound is immersive and clear, making it a great fit for Xbox Series X gaming. If you're looking for a headset that blends performance, durability, and value, the Nova 7X is an incredible choice — easily one of the best in its class.
