    My Review of the SteelSeries Arctic Nova Pros

    I have to say - this headset exceeded my expectations. Not only is it sleek and practical but the audio quality is pristine, and the customizability (whether from the OLED base station or the SteelSeries Sonar app) is a huge plus. It's an excellent headset all around.

    These were a no brainer once my steel series pro wireless started going out after six brutal years of continuous work and use! The Nova upgrade was must and I’m so glad I did! These things are amazing and subtle upgrades from the pro are clutch! I know these will be as great as the former already!

    My right side has more bass/rumble than my left :(

    Straight to business, they're great. The volume is plenty for average players. Being able to adjust the sound with the built in equalizer is what sold me. I love bass and being able to tune it to my perfection is amazing. They also feel good on my head, there's enough weight and snug to remind me I have them on but not too much where my head is heavy or squeezed. The anc isn't world breaking, it's actually pretty average. But I doubt you'll notice too much of a difference with or without it on. The microphone is also superb. I have the Sony Pulse Elite and the microphone on these compared to those is night in day. My friends instantly noticed in our party chat. Now the biggest con for me. Am not sure if it's my head shape, ear shape, ears in general, but I notice a very noticeable difference in bass from left and right. The right side has a bit more of that boom and rumble than the left. Not too much, but enough for it to bother me. Especially when I'm listening to music and I feel my right ear enjoying the bass while my left ear is just catching the after bumps. If that makes any sense. I hope it's just a me problem or my particular headset. Spending this much on a headset and having one side sound different than the other is pretty upsetting. Hopefully you do not face that issue, but regardless of that one thing. These are amazing. So many settings, great sound, and fit comfortable enough for lengthy sessions. Would recommend.

    Best gaming headset I’ve ever had. The 3D audio has made me a more confident player when playing aggressive because of how I am able to pinpoint where the opposing player is. The sound quality is absolutely amazing. The weight of the headset is super light and comfy. One of my favorite features is the ability to exchange the batteries so that you never have to charge the headset while playing. The customizable EQ takes the sound to a whole new level and allows you to prioritize what’s important to you. For me, I play a lot of Warzone and prioritizing footsteps has literally changed my game. Yes, they are expensive but a great investment if you have the means.

    Works great and are comfortable. The battery lasts a very long time and only ever had to swap the battery out once but I’m sure over time like all batteries that will go down. All in all a bit pricey but they work well and are comfortable to wear.

    The wireless solution here is seamless and easy to swap out. The sound quality is amazing, and the headphones are comfortable. My only complaint is with the microphone being a bit flimsy and not being able to put away while the pop filter is on, but that is very minor and does not hinder my enjoyment of the product.

    Upgrading from a Steelseries Arctis Pro Wireless, so not a ton of difference, however there are some good and bad changes. The Nova Pro Wireless has a lot less clamping force, especially toward the bottom of the cup. I find it more challenging to get a good fit that doesn’t allow the sound to escape. The cups are also not quite as thick as I’d like, so the ANC microphone on the inside presses against your ear sometimes. I bought some replacement cups from a 3rd party brand and they have worked splendidly. The sound quality is largely the same, but I have noticed some crackling if there is too much bass and/or gain on the EQ. I never had that issue with the Arctis Pro Wireless. The microphone is noticeably better on the Nova Pro Wireless, but it’s still a headset mic, so it’s nothing amazing. The support band is much more effective than the old one and there is a little vertical adjustment for the headset itself too, which was not present on the Arctis Pro Wireless. Overall, the build quality feels good, they’re not super heavy and they sport the same double battery feature, so unless you’re gaming 24/7, you’ll probably never have to plug this thing in during use.

    My take

    I was using old arctis 5's for the past four-five years and they began to get loose at the joints. I decided to upgrade to a quality one. These have great range and sound isn't okay. I have Sony XM and they don't compare to that music quality however if you've ever used Sony headphones for gaming, they're not nearly as good compared to gaming specialized headsets like this. The only downside to these is that they're a bit heavy. Charging and switching batteries took some getting used to but now it's easy. My past headset was a lot lighter in weight and for that reason was more comfortable. If you want a premium headset for gaming, this is a good choice. I'm still messing with it to get it to be the most comfortable. I know of replaceable ear cups which I might try. Overall it's a good choice and while I do miss my past headset, this one was the way to go and will last me years just like the last

    A little pricey but i dont think there is a better quality gaming headset on the market. If you setup the sound profiles with their sonar software, you’ll never switch to any other headset as long as you live. Over the years steelseries have earned my business and loyalty simply by creating better products than their competititors.

    Sound is excellent craftsmanship is well-made detailed in every aspect. I think it’s worth the price that I paid. I love to build in speaker. Should I say the build in mic I love the color white maybe they consider more colors I love to it’s not like certain headsets that hurt your ears never used this product before never heard of it either until I went into the store shopping for headsets and I seen this particular one so I said let me try it out

    I had the wired version prior to buying these and i got to say it was 100% worth it. The battery life is crazy and not having to be tethered (by wire) to the dac is a blessing. Also having a spare battery always charged keeps you in the game at all times. On a side note you can stay in the vc while using the bathroom and no one has to know what you are really doing.

    Best Headset Overall Period (BHOP)

    By far the best headset I've used for gaming. My favorite feature of the Nova Pro, is the ability to hear audio on console, while simultaneously on a phone call with my wife. I don't buy white headsets but the quality of the product has far exceeded my expectancy of the ability to attract dirt. The sound quality is like an IMAX 3D surround sound experience held by pillows for your ears. 10/10 recommend for all gamers and music lovers.
