    Upgraded to this headset from the Nova Pro wireless and the sound upgrade it definitely noticeable! I also like the fact that you can EQ the headset through the Steelseries GG app on a 10 band EQ. The price is definitely on the higher end but if you get use out the robust feature set then in my opinion they are worth the price.

    The ultimate high end premium gaming headset! Exquisite gaming trait set greatly updated from the fan favorite nova pro wireless now modernized with a touch of carbon fiber drivers manufactured inside the speakers. Already loved the previous nova pro wireless the nova elite further expands the steelseries brand into hi res audio fidelity territory. Works for every platform imaginable; PC , Mac, PlayStation, Xbox , Switch 1 &2 you name it. Not gonna lie paying $600 for headphones especially a gaming headset is over the edge I would have preferred $400 -500 to spend but they are other products that cost way more and imo don't justify their asking MSRP. Not necessarily saying you have to buy these to get the $600 experience but if there is a product that doesn't have a lot of misses and does everything else right I would definitely pick these (only if you have the budget to)

    I had the Arctis nova pro wireless and saw that they were releasing these elite. I knew I had to try them and they have not disappointed, the build quality is amazing and the audio quality is superb. I understand that price point is high but this is easily one of the best headsets on the market for gaming and it’s not even close. SteelSeries continues to be at the forefront with their tech.

    These are pretty much the best head phones I e ever used. Noise cancellation is amazing, and the sound quality is by far the best in any head set I’ve ever use. It was definitely a pricy purchase but if you have the money, these are definitely as good as it gets.

    These things are amazing. I had an older version, but these are better in every way. Yes, they're expensive. Yes, they're worth every penny. Great for gaming audio or just bumping Spotify (pro tip: don't forget to turn on lossless audio)

    I traded in my Sage Gold headphones in for these since I prefer black instead. Overall these are amazing headphones and the customization you can do through Steel Series.GG, and EQ are amazing for all of my true gamers out there. I can assure you these will be the only headphones you need, I even stopped using my AirPods when im around the house which is very surprising since I prefer in ear headphones over over the ear

    The audio quality sounds fantastic and I love that I can use my phone to change the presets for different games when gaming on a console instead of my PC. However there are a few too many issues I wasn't expecting to be dealing with when spending this kind of money on a pair of headphones that make it feel like it is still a beta product. - The third USB C port is XBOX ONLY, which was not clear to me from the description. This port doesn't work for PC, PS5, or Switch/Switch 2. - Bluetooth frequently disconnects and reconnects from my phone mid usage on both my iPad Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL. - There is an option to turn on both Bluetooth and the 2.4g connection when you first power it on, but no option to turn both off when you power it off. I don't want to power two separate connections off every time I turn off the headphones. - The desktop app constantly reminds you to set the EQ to flat to avoid distortion, even if it is already set to flat. - Headband CONSTANTLY slips off compared to my Arctis Nova Pro. Even the slightest motion will knock it out of alignment. The features are nice and the sound quality is amazing, but at $600 I can't recommend buying this until it receives a lot of quality of life/firmware updates to address these issues. If these get addressed I will update my review, but in this state you will be paying a premium to beta test a product for SteelSeries.
