Customer Ratings & Reviews

Headset has been very comfortable even for long sessions, and the battery life is great. Would recommend

Really great headphones, quality is amazing and the removable batteries are so nice to have. I use these for work and they are very seamless switching between Bluetooth and game mode.

Headset was not good crackling all the time so need returned them.

First off, yes this thing is expensive, but you do get a tone of features. The dual 2.4 ghz and Bluetooth connectivity is amazing, makes it perfect for working from home. I can easily answer phone calls while I am listening to music or playing a game, there is a feature that either mutes the audio coming from the computer or lowers the volume when taking a call from the headset. The hub station is pretty much a fancy dongle for the headphones but that is also packed with features. I am able to plug my speakers into the hub so if I don't want to use my headphones I can use my speakers without changing any settings or toggling any switches. The hub provides information on the headphones such as battery level, which leads me to the fact that this thing has hot swappable batteries, so basically you will never have any downtime to charge the headset. Plus these batteries are pretty standard you can easily find replacements on the steelseries website and on ebay as long as the specs match. Range is pretty large, if you shift the mode to range mode you can go even farther, I was able to take conference calls and still move around the house with no issue in audio. One of the best audio experiences especially for gaming, the sonar software is still new but so far it does do a really good job with surround sound. This also pairs well with DTS Surround software. There are pre-set equalizer settings for specific games, however I found my general EQ setting that focuses more on mids and highs was better (for footsteps and gunshots). The mic fully tucks in so you can just use as a standard pair of noise cancelling headphones in public. The subtle design also helps. Basically you are getting two headsets in one, one for general use when paired with your phone and one for gaming on your computer. So this is purely a gaming headset, if you are looking for something like Hi-Fi for music and movies I would recommend an audiophile headset.

This headset is amazing! This blocks out all outside noises, and when I speak into the mic, it's smart technology blocks out any sounds besides my voice, so they don't hear my family chatting or the stereo playing. It's is sleek looking and easy to install.

Complicated setup and configuration. One piece of software for every product SteelSeries product makes the software bloated. If you're looking for Bose quality, I don't recommend these. If you want decent gaming surround, good mic, and own numerous SS products already then it's perfect for you.

Love the sound, they work great and easy to use. Would highly recommended for gaming

Excellent audio quality and connects with multiple devices seamlessly, allowing transitioning between calls or even listening to simultaneous audio streams

Audio quality is less than desirable, but given the removable battery its acceptable. Mic quality is passable.

Simply amazing, the sound quality to the spacial audio improved my cod gaming.

the best headphones ive owned and will own for a while

I had been waiting to see what Steelseries would come out with since next gen consoles launched. Needless to say I was excited to see these come out and immediately purchased them. Pros: Quality felt nice and the adjustable head strap was a nice touch. Being able to have two devices plugged in was great for being able to switch from PC to console on the fly. Cons: The headphones themselves felt a bit to small. The headset was not paired with the DAC and the included instructions did not clarify how to get the headphones into pairing mode. Took well over an hour to figure out you had to hold the power button on the headset itself. Audio quality was rather lacking. Poor soundstage for something that’s claiming to be high fidelity. The DAC wired into Phillips X2’s produced a deeper and cleaner audio. Then again you’re purchasing this for the wireless function. I personally returned the Nova and went back to my current DAC + X2 combo.

They sound great when you play with the equalizer. Swappable batteries is a nice feature. Only downside is the ear pads after a while they preas down and that ridiculous anc bump starts pressing on your ear, but was resolved by getting after market ear cups.

Comfortable when wearing especially when playing video games for couple hoursand sound is excellent and can’t hear outside surroundings.

I like it alot great sound wise. The mic is only okay so thats why I give it a 4/5. For the price I would expect a betrer mic.

The software and headset are easy to use would 100% recommend.

Simple to setup and percise pleyer positioning. Front and back audio sources a little confusing sometimes

It is the best gaming headset I have gotten and also is easy to use.

The headset is amazingly however for those who talk a lot to friends on Playstation/xbox and you care a lot about your mic quality on console then id personally go with the astro A50 headset. Same price with a much better mic and the sound is pretty good too. Its realy painful because i love the nova pro but when talking to friends i have to switch back. They told me w1hen i was in party with them that the mic quality was par with a $30 headset i got off Amazon a few years ago. Enough about the mic quality on to the sound. The sound is is perfect in my personal opinion. It supports 3d audio and has anc to cancel out background noise. However you wont be tuning out your noisy neighbors throwing a party next door but its a nice touch. The batery life is really good as well. The best part is its hot swappable so when your headset dies pop in the other battery and your good to go. I would of given this headset a 5 star but mic quality is a big one for me personally. I watched some videos on it and im guessing they were onky doing mc tests on their pc because the mic quality seemed great in the videos. I hope ive helped you come to a decision

Great headphones, easy setup, love the dual battery pack, microphone is good. Play a FPS with it and its great.
