    Owned for 1 year now. Sounds in Black Ops 6 are amazing (Sucker Punch, custom EQ set in the DAC (All Freqs Maxed Out) able to hear footsteps, reloads with pretty good positional awareness. I do not use the GG software (too many running processes) DTSx Headphone app works good but costs $20 USD for lifetime use with updates and usually have to select it each time I boot up the Computer. ANC is reason I purchased, Very good EXCEPT I recommend Wicked Ear Cushions as they are Thicker and the metal ANC microphones will not touch your ears! The DAC is easy to learn and has several tweaks for personal adjustment. Dual Batteries are awesome, 4 to 5 hour use with ANC and Hot Swap to keep on playing! Mic quality is OK.

    I came across these headphones on a Google search because I wanted to replace the older model SteelSeries. To make it easier to read (and write): 1. [CONNECTION] Not entirely wireless. Comes with a base box to plug into a device incompatible with its Bluetooth capability, but no wires from headphones to anything. Connects fine with my S21 Ultra phone, but need the box to connect to PS5. 2. [SOUND] Video game sound is 4.8/5. Music is 5.0/5.0. Overall sound is 4.8/5 (It didn't score perfectly because every now and again there is an annoying feedback. 3. [FIT] Like someone holding soft pillows on the ears. 4. [NOISE CANCELATION] Allows for immersive gameplay, exercise, and/or meditation. When it's time to submerge into a project with music or just submerge yourself in sound, put these on. 5. [OVERALL] I think you'll be happy with your purchase of these headphones, but I wouldn't mind trying some other headphones just see how they compare.

    Great multi-channel headset that lets me game and take calls at the same time what’s not to love. The dock/amp houses a spare battery so you will never be waiting to charge this headset also if your gaming and not using Bluetooth mode but have it paired to your phone then enabling Bluetooth mode while a call is incoming will automatically answer.

    I've owned several higher end gaming headsets and this is hands down the best yet. They are not without a few flaws but over all experience is fantastic. Out of the box sound quality is outstanding and the software allows the headset to be EQ to fit your own needs. No head shaking bass by default but that can absolutely be EQ'd into it. I've not heard any distortion while using the EQ either which is rare and evidence of a good quality driver. Great situational awareness is fantastic, they have a very solid 3d space you can hear and track where sounds are coming from, above, below, behind etc. These are well worth the upgrade from the previous version without going into technical reasons they are just hands down better, look better, sound better and I feel have a better build quality. Compared to a few others, I think these perform and sound better than Astro A50, A40 /w mixamp, Previous version of Steel Series Arctis Pros, they are "On-par" with my Apple Airpod max, in some situations sound better, the sub bass is impressive and comparable to my Shure SE846 IEM which is a $1,000+ IEM that has a dedicated sub /w lowpass filter. You won't find many negative reviews on these and for good reason, they are expensive but worth it. Some confusion I've seen the difference between the Xbox version and the PS5/PC version. Here is what you need to know on that. If you have all 3 and plan to use them wirelessly with all 3 get the Xbox version. If your PS5 is close to your PC and you want to switch between the two without unplugging anything, get the PS5 version. The xbox version basestation has a dedicated xbox usb port and 1 normal usb port, the ps5 version has 2x usb ports so the PS5 version will work with xbox but not wirelessly. You'll have to use the 3.5 cable and plug into a xbox controller, flip side the xbox version will work with both PC and PS5 wirelessly but you still only have the 2 usb ports and the xbox one will ONLY work on xbox leaving you to 1 port so you can't hook all 3 to it at the same time.

    Got it for the PS5, works better than PlayStations own headset. It Auto switches sound to the headset unlike the PS headset. Sound quality is noticeably better and muting is way easier because you can use the PS controller to mute. Battery life is a noticeable upgrade from the PS headset and with swappable batteries it makes for a way better experience. Definitely recommend!!!

    They are great pair of wireless gaming headsets! Has unlimited battery life! Sound is good not great. Noise cancellation is a meh and the microphone is okay. My opinion, I would prefer A50 Astro all around. But for the price of 275$ instead of the 300$+ is a W. If you have the chance to get them in a discount! Definitely worth the money!!

    Ive owned 4 versions of the steelseries wrieless pro over the years. 2 were in the previous model and 2 in thr current nova model. While the nova sounds pretty crisp once you mess with the settings, I have an issue with how it no longer allows you to have sound playing from the tv and the headset simultaeously. You can only do one or the other at a time. The previous model allowed this. Had the batteries not lost much of their consistent charge after constantly using them over 2 years, I would have kept it. This is still a great headset especially if you take advantage of the PC upgrade. I am on console, so I only have access to what is in the DAC. Do not use the default settings. They are horrible. I found some amazing settings via reddit and made slight adjustments to their recommendations per my personal preference. I mostly play apex legends, fortnite, and single player games. If you want a reliable headset and can afford it, get these. If you can find the previous model the arctis pros, get those and get extra batteries right off the back. Hard to find new.

    Overall this headset is simply amazing from the Durability to the sound quality to the customizations that you’re able to do it . I Use it for PS five games also for talking on the phone and it’s as well as watching movies on my TV. The headset comes with two batteries so you always have one Charged, While you using one battery for the headset you could be charging the other one in the charging port. I like the fact that you’re able to customize the audio settings for the battery Port interface. The ability to customize your headset is awesome I was able to put “ Wicked cushions” On with no problem. The Headset is very well-made and will not break on you. My only wish for this headset was so ability to raise and lower the volume of people talking during games you have to do that manually In game which kind of stinks.

    LOVE them! I have had tons of high end gaming heasets. I currently have about 6. Now I only use these. Really not sure why people are giving these anything but 5 stars. My guess is they haven't had many other high end sets to compare them to. These are, without question, the best I have ever had for sure.

    I’ve been using these for about a year and absolutely love the way they sound and all of the functionality they have. Being able to hot-swap the battery mid use was the feature I was most excited about and that works really well. I also just love the way these look, the microphone is very discreet and the headset isn’t bulky at all so I have no problems wearing these to the coffee shop or the gym. On that note though, for me especially when working out these can start to feel hot after a while or even when just gaming. It’s likely different for everyone but I think the leather is trapping some heat. It doesn’t bother me much especially since when out I always keep them slightly off my ears for better awareness. By far the best feature of these headphones is the duality of having Bluetooth and radio in one. I can be playing a game on my pc connected with the usb audio device over radio while it’s also connected to my phone via Bluetooth so I can hear my FaceTime call. It mixes the audio together perfectly I was worried there would be some sort of layering issue or something but nope it’s exactly the same as if you had two things playing at once on just the one device. Admittedly it’s a niche use case but even just keeping my headphones on while walking to the kitchen and being able to start watching a video while cooking then coming back to my pc and unpause my game without having to connect or disconnect anything is so seamless and great. Definitely a feature worth the price. Overall extremely happy and I won’t be upgrading to a different pair for quite some time unless they have these same features and more.

    Something Rubs Against My Ears in the Cups

    Outstanding headset with one big flaw, and that being some kind of notch on the inside of the earcups that rubs against my ears. I think it has something to do with noise cancellation. That is about the only issue I have with the headset. They sound much better than the previous model (which still sound good). The mic performance is excellent when it comes to discord and phone calls. There's tons of background noise where i work and the mic cancels it all out. The build quality is much better than the previous model. The previous model that I have is somewhat falling apart. Ultimately, a great headset that I have to return due to the comfort problem. Whatever that thing inside the ear cups that rubs against my ears is a no go for me and is very uncomfortable. I have the previous ones and there's still some life in them so I'll use those until I find something better, the next model comes out. I found a video that shows what I described. I made a screenshot of it.

    If you get this headset, I would recommend getting a different set of earcups because they do get kind of hot after a gaming for a while. But sound quality and mic are top notch with the ease of controlling the discord app and game on the headset, also that if you can make the DAC show you your PC's temp on the SGG app.

    These headphones blew me put of the water with their sound quality while gaming, and listening to music. The simultaneous bluetooth works pretty good, and is the best headphone yet ive tried with this feature. It can have interference though if you have the bluetooth on and many 2.4 g wireless acessories nearby. I like the battery system and how it comes with two, it makes for longee wireless gaming times. The anc is okay, for a gaming headset. Dont expect the anc to be better than bose or airpods max or sony headphones. Also, if you use anc, and speak at the same time, it cant exactly cancel out all of your voice, so you get a weird slight annoying feedback loop. If im gaming without talking anc isnt a problem. Also, sonar software is kind of a pain to use, the chat mix software sucks. Steelseries engine though, is a pretty good and straightforward software to use. So yeah, it has some problems but overall Im glad i made the purchase as the gaming experience, ease of use, and comfort are amazing so far.

    Awesome headphones overall. The issue is they aren’t exactly perfect. The mechanism for the infinite battery system is weird such as how you replace your headphones battery on itself or how you plug it into the charger. I wish the process was more smooth. Wireless charging would be nice for this price or a stand that charges seen on other headphones designed for console users. The headphones are very comfortable definitely a great attribute and other headphones at this price range aren’t as comfortable from my experience. Additionally, the audio quality is amazing and really it’s incredible at this price rage. The microphone is not great. I’ve heard better from way cheaper headphones and the software really doesn’t help. The software however does have unique features and will enhance your audio experience. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for high quality gaming headphones with a microphone that are unique and powerful.

    I have owned the SteelSeries Arctis 7s and the Titan A50s. These are superior in every way! They are extremely comfortable and all of the sound profile options are very detailed and you can control so many aspects of the sound. The video capture feature was also a big surprise, if you are on a PC you can set it to capture many different moments in most AAA games. I also love that it has 2 swapable batteries allowing for a true 100% wireless experience on long gaming sessions. That being said the batteries last a very long time. 10/10 would buy again.
