    Im normally a wired headset person because i hate down time of wireless headsets, but these arctis nova pros are awesome hot swappable batteries with 2 days of battery life and only takes 30 minutes for a full charge is the making of a dream headset for me no more wire no more down time. Plus, to top it off, amazing audio quality!

    Super happy with the headset, the headset is somewhat light to weat and it does not pressure your head (not sure if it would be different for someone who wear glasses), the battery last a long while and its easy to switch the batteries when needed. iI installed SteelSeries Sonar and adjusted my microphone with one of the presets that include deep voice, but that was the only thing that had to be changed from default.

    Best Wireless Headset I’ve had in a While

    Bought this to replace my Arctic Nova 7P and it was worth it despite the higher cost. Hands-down the two biggest game-changers for me have been the better “side-tone” and the swappable batteries. On the Arctic Nova 7P the side-tone was non-existent and still felt like you were talking with a headset on. With the Nova Pro initially I was disappointed with the side tone until I turned on transparency in the ANC settings. Although it’s not technically side tone it feels kind of like the air pod pro’s transparency and gets rid of that muffled feeling which is what I wanted. Audio quality is also much better than the 7P’s, but I assume the mic quality is probably around the same since none of my friends noticed when I switched headsets. I’ve also used this headset for game audio while chatting on Discord and the implementation is solid and surprisingly easy to connect. One thing to note about this headset is that it essentially has two power buttons, one for wireless connections (console, PC, etc) and one for Bluetooth. So if for example you were connected to your PS5 and your iPhone at the same time, pressing the main power button doesn’t turn off both connections. You have to hold down the main “power” button as well as the Bluetooth button separately to disconnect both.

    Easy to use. Very comfortable earcups. Battery life is amazing, never have to worry about getting off your PC/Console to charge your headset. Microphone's quality is very good. Controls are easy accessible though if you want to control game or party chat audio, you cannot do it through the headset. Bluetooth 2.4 is flawless and very good, no input lag whatsoever.

    Probably the best wireless headset/mic combo on the market. I hope they come out with a different earcup. Thats the only thing I would change. The two batteries are unbeatable, just to be able swap out and always be gaming is unmatched. The Sonar software also lets you change to a different channel and then you can customize your listening experience.

    Astro A50 to Steel Series Arctis Nova Pro

    I've been using the Astro A50 for years and have been fairly happy with them, this time I decided to try something new. For anyone else in a similar situation or comparison shopping between brands. I've found that the Astro A50's are simpler to work with, you plug them in and you're done; you don't have to install the Command Center to even really use the headset and they work well out of the box. Moving onto the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro, these things are fairly beastly in design with the largest benefit bringing me over to these are the replaceable battery and charging dock. With no longer having to worry myself with actually charging the headphones on a cable. Some things that make this product more challenging to work with is; in order to consume a majority of the devices functionality you must install the software; there is a huge dependency on the software installation and configuration. This dependency on the software turns into the software creating bunch of virtual input & output devices that get translated by the DAC\Transmitter to the headphones. Because of this software dependency, I have had many problems with the device configuration getting all screwed up just by unplugging the USB cable on the DAC and plugging it back in again, all of the virtual devices lose their connectivity forcing me to have to do a hard removal of software and hardware devices to allow the software to re-add and reconfigure the virtual output/input devices again, and the configuration cannot currently be exported or backed up so everything that I customize has to be reconfigured all over again. The features that this offers has me staying with the product for now as I really love the charging base and replaceable battery; otherwise for the simplicity offered by the functionality of the Astro A50's... if they ever come out with a similar charging station and replaceable battery to eliminate an actual connection or plug requirement ... I would be going back to them.

    Great for Multipoint Connect from Teams to Mobile

    I’ve been looking for over ear headsets with noise cancellation and paired bluetooth adapter that work with Microsoft Teams. You’d think I was looking for the holy grail with the difficulty I gad researching this purchase. I found this when looking into gaming headsets as many come with external bluetooth adapters, and my work computer does not support bluetooth functionality. Setup out of the box is super simple: I connected the receiver to my computer via the provided cable, and my headset is recognized immediately. The mic being retractable and on the left side of my face will take some adjustment. That said, I experienecd no issues with audio output or input during calls in Microsoft Teams. While retracting the mic does sync with Teams calls to mute by default, I was surprised to see that pressing the mute button on my headset does mute input on calls, similar to how flipping my Jabra headset mic up would do so. The over ear cups are much more comfortable than on ear headsets that applied a lot of pressure to my head. That said, I will be purchasing some after market ear pads as these are not quite as comfortable as I hoped. Lastly, this is the first headset I had that does not exclude sounds between my pc and my mobile device when paired to both simultaneously. If you are looking for a wireless headset that works for work and personal time, I highly recommend this headset.

    I was skeptical about these but i am very impressed and love them. I own Arctis Nova 3 Wired and have those plugged into a sound blaster sound card but these nova pros with dac sound way better. For the pc, you can adjust the settings and the bass is great. These are great for gaming esp for games that directional sound is important. The only con is that the these are a little tight and i dont have a large head just fyi for people with large heads might be uncomfortable hours a few hours.

    I had the Corsair Virtuoso XT before these and the Nova pros beat the Virtuosos in literally every aspect. Sound better, feel better, much better software, and presets for tons of games that actually sound good. Definitely recommend If you can afford them.

    Amazing headset

    I purchased these headsets back in September for my birthday. I have been very happy with them. I haven’t had any problems. They worked very well. Sound quality is amazing. You could switch between game and video game chat so you can turn up the volume on each one separately, it also comes with two batteries that you can charge in the dock. I love that being wireless is amazing. Another great thing about these headsets as it’s wireless. Overall great pick, I have other headsets that I use and I would say I prefer these over them. Definitely worth the money.

    Software fixes cheap sounding mic

    Amazing headset all around and very sturdy as far as design goes. Was worried about the microphone cause all the mic tests for this headset on youtube spoke negatively about it, but the software has a fix it. In Sonar (software) you can change the way you sound and it fixes that cheapish way you sound on recordings. (Almost like if you were on speaker through a phone call). The 360 surround audio this headset has is amazing for competitive games like warzone! The sound is crisp and clear with PLENTY of bass. I have no complaints at all. Its overall design is so good and highly recommend it for Sim Racing and competitive shooters. The software that comes with this headset is probably the best i have seen yet (and i come from a set of astros a50's). I highly underestimated this headset. Cant recommend it enough.

    The overall comfort of the head phones and the sound quality is outstanding. The 2 included hot swappable batteries which are charged in the included dock are a life saver during long use like going from remote work to gaming. The noise cancelling could be better but my ears are kinda big so that might just be a me problem.

    These sounded really good, had lots of features, and i loved that i could game on my PS5 and listen to YouTube on my phone at the same time with this headset. I unfortunately returned them for 2 reasons. First, they did not fit my head really well, they would slide forward all the time if I moved at all, I tried several adjustments, but none worked for me. Second, they made my ears warm, and that bothered me. I strongly believe these will be awesome for most people out there, and the audio is awesome, footsteps on demand when you tweak the eq.

    I like them because i dont never have to charge them or keep them plug in for recharge. The hub charges the battery so it only take 5 - 10 seconds to switch batteries and have endless wireless playtime. Comfort is good enough, sound great and mic is ok. If you hate neededing to charge it or hook up a cable this is the one for you.

    Very robust headset, I love the swappable batteries and the controller is a nice touch. I love the adjustable headstrap and the pads feel great, they're not too firm but don't have too much give. The sound quality is great too, I like the sonae surround but if you can shell out the 15 dollars for Dolby Atmos on your PC, it's so much more.

    What a beautiful headset. Definitely a bit more on the expensive side, but I think it's worth the money. Let's start off with the wireless base station. It's very easy to use, doesn't slide around when trying to turn up and down volume, easy access to ANC and Transparency mode, and when using SteelSeries Sonar, the game audio/chat mixer is an amazing addition. The second battery charges in the station while you're gaming, so it's always at full charge when you need to swap it out. Onto the headset itself; what a beautiful headset this is. The design of the headset is rugged yet smooth finished, the adjustable head band creates the perfect seal from the outside world, the microphone passes with good quality in my opinion, and the sound quality is exactly what you'd expect for the price tag. SteelSeries did a great job with these headphones, between the base station, the design, the quality, the ANC/Transparency, and the ability to Bluetooth connect to your phone. I give them an easy 9.6/10.
