Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this to replace my not so great Xbox wireless headset. Coming from an A50, it never impressed me. I love the hot swap batteries and the sound is incredible.

Amazing sound quality for a wireless headset comfort is also superb and the fact that you don’t have to ever plug it into charge is even better

The best sound I've ever heard. I know some of the features are also in other headphones but i love being able to listen to more than 1 device at a time.

Had these for a while now and will say they have been worth it. I find the sound amazing and the headset comfortable. Glad I upgraded from the Pro’s.

Here's the deal - this headset is not for everyone. You want something that will let you play games and hear your friends on Discord but don't have 3 consoles? See the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless. Have 3 consoles? This is your headset. The build on this headset is metal hinge and headband, which I believe is new from the NPW. Otherwise you'll have the same clear audio, form factor, and experience common to the Artcis Nova headsets. One new thing? You can have the OLED screen turn off after a few minutes (configure in GG). That's about it - you got $600 for a headset? You probably have 3 inputs to use with it. Otherwise, the $300-400 NPW is best.

Amazing fit and finish. Sound quality is awesome. Went from Arctis pro wired to this and am not looking back. Battery life is beyond the rated time. Little pricey but...

I have the previous generation and this new version is improved: better sound, better noise cancellation, more comfortable. Highly recommended. The only downside is the price.

Great headset audio is amazing definitely a great option when you have multiple consoles and just want 1 headset to rule them all lol. Has 3D audio for PS5, Even better if you have dolby on xbox, easily usable on PC and if you have the companion device app on yoir phone (accessible with bluetooth) there's different presets you can use for multiple games even Arc Raiders, Fortnite and DbD.

These are super premium. Excellent cushions sometimes have fun can be too tired of my head, but I think the cushion on the ear pads offset that. One of the main drawers was so that I could listen to two things at once the screen gives easy control where I can adjust between my computer and my gaming system. Excellent product!

You can tell it's built well when theres actual metal parts, like a tank. Feels good, sounds amazing with Sonar enabled. Only drawback, if you have a big head like me. It will be a bit too snug after a few hours of use, i have to take breaks after that long anyways. Easy to adjust headsets and there's custom ear cushions for this and the Pro headset that are cooler to ears. Steelseries engine is NOT hard to use.. easy to use after you read tutorials and lots of documentation out there.

Great headset, premium build and very comfortable. Big improvement over Arctis nova pro . Expensive but you get what you pay for.

Ok the the #1 reason you buy these is for the sound. This is one of the few gaming headsets that truly start to compete with audiophile gear while offering a decent microphone. I say decent because it is still lacking. Voice quality is by far the best out of the steelseries headsets however the microphone really struggles with gain still. Its just too quiet. Everyone will comment that they have to “turn you up” if you switch from another brand or setup. Its ver apparent if you fire up a db meter and switch between the steelseries mic and other wireless boom mic options. For instance the HyperX Cloud III wireless has a louder mic but the quality is bery compressed sounding compared to the steelseries. The build quality feels great ok the headset, however for $600 i was disappointed that the wirless dac / receiver felt cheaper to the touch than the one with the Arctis Nova Pro’s. It would have been nice to see metal used on the receiver as well at this price point. The next big highlight, and a big reason this series is so popular, is the swappable battery. Works just as good as prior generations/iterations and is fantastic. I wish more brands would adopt this method for powering their wireless headsets. Would I recommend this headset? It checks a lot of boxes and sounds pretty fantastic with a flat eq out if the box. But boy is it pricey. You can get a great wired setup with a better microphone if you want to get more complex with your setup. But if you just want to plug and play and have the freedom of wireless, bluetooth, multiplatform support etc then these are probably among the best you can find - you just really have to pay to play.

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.

This headset i got a while back and its really good the switching between systems and also allowing my phone to be blue toothed at the same time and muting the mic for the game while i take a call on my phone is awesome

I recently upgraded to the Elite headset, replacing my Nova Wireless Pro, which was already an excellent device. The Elite immediately stood out with its superior audio quality, impressive Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), and outstanding microphone performance. These enhancements put it in a league of its own for both music and calls. However, I can’t give it a full 5-star rating because the iPhone companion app is still not compatible, even though it was advertised as a key feature. This was one of the main reasons I decided to make the switch, so it’s disappointing that it hasn’t been addressed yet. Overall, the Elite is a fantastic headset with incredible performance, but I hope the app support gets resolved soon.

great battery life, audio quality, and overall build feels extremely premium

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)

phenomenal sound quality and very comfortable to wear!

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.

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.
