Customer Ratings & Reviews

At the time I'm writing this review the headset retails before tax at 350$ so close to 380$ after tax. I've owned this headset for about a month and a half. I CANNOT say this headset is worth the money. *****I use this headset on Xbox and PC****** My biggest complaint is the power button on the headset does multiple things: 1. Turns the ANC OFF and ON (single click) 2. Turns the transparent mode ON and OFF (double click) And 3. Then turns the power off and on. (hold button) The cool LED display they have does not show you if you ANC IS TURNED OFF OR ON you just have to know. Same goes for transparent mode LED display does NOT tell you if its turned on but that honestly is very obvious when turned on. This button you use isn't the most responsive to be honest it feels cheap it sometimes takes me multiple tries to turn the ANC back on after I noticed I turned it off. I think I accidently turn the ANC OFF when trying to power down the headset. This headset needs a dedicated power button or switch. Alright now for the other not great things this headset does but cost 350$. There is a microphone in both ear pieces that can touch your ear. I don't have big ears by any means but I find myself having to have the headset just right or my ear will ever so slightly be touching which is a small thing but this headset cost 350$ so I'm gonna pick. Another dumb thing is that you can put these batteries in the charger backwards. I did it when I first got the headset and it got stuck in the charger. I had to do some serious finessing to get it out which cause some scratching to happen around the charger. My mistake ill take the blame but it was very easy to slide into the wrong spot and get stuck. That's my only point there. I feel like I'm missing some stuff but that's about all the problems I see in this headset. It does do a lot of things right and the sound quality is good. I just feel like the price is too much.

Very happy with these. My favorite feature really has to be the swappable battery. Has already come in handy mid game to be able to switch out. Some minor things that have taken getting used to is just getting the muscle memory down for the switches. I do feel like my previous headphones ( earlier generation were a little more tactile and larger buttons )

Awsome headset. Very convenient that could switch pc, xbox and ps5. One headset for all 3.

More like 4.5 stars. The headset is an overall solid and complete package, nails every large feature and user need, while missing out on some details with a generally good but mixed build quality. The swappable battery system is incredible. Still $350 is too much for any non professional headset, thankfully it’s on sale for $285 every once in a while. So wait for that, it’ll be one of the best peripherals/accessories you’ve ever bought.

Best gaming headset I've owned so far even better than my steelseries 9 and 7x. Only downside is the leather earcups, i understand they're for sound isolation but the cloth ones are more comfortable.

SteelSeries makes s great gaming headset I've never had a problem.great sound ,comfort

Most comfortable headphones ive ever owned. Had thr arctis 9’s before these, after those went out after 4 years, i got these. A bit pricey, but worth the price. Can wear them for hours without discomfort even with glasses. The sound is very clear. The only thing i dont like is when its about to die, it will beep in your ear every 10 seconds or so. Other than that, worth the price.

Great sound. Able to connect between The Xbox/PS4 and or my phone seamlessly. I can play on my PS5 while listening to Spotify music while also listening to Audible. Just wish i could change the volume between chat and game on the physical headset itself rather than having to get up, walk over to the little device thats plugged into my consoles to do so. Otherwise its a fantastic purchase.

One of the best gaming headphones I’ve ever had, use with steel series sonar gg software and you can really tune these is in, the noise cancellation is a plus and the base station allows two platforms to be plugged in and can be swapped either on the station or use the headphones to control it, but the factory ear pads are too thin and after just a hour of use the drivers from the noise cancellation start digging into your ear, order a set of aftermarket pads and after that they are super comfy even after hours of use, the battery life is pretty long and the base holds a backup battery in it ready to go and swap when needed, 10/10 would buy again

Amazing surround sound and great overall performance. It’s great for everyday use and specific tasks due to the built in EQ Features. Easy to use and amazing quality

Pros: - Active noise cancellation delivers incredible audio quality, blocking out ambient noise for immersive gaming sessions. - Premium hi-fi sound provides clear, crisp quality across all frequencies. - The retractable mic is convenient and easy to hide when not in use. - Wireless connectivity allows for comfortable, unrestricted movement while gaming. Cons: - The headset can feel a bit heavy and uncomfortable after extended periods of use. - While the audio quality is great for gaming, it may not be ideal for music or other media. - The battery life could be longer, as it only lasts around 10 hours on a full charge. - The headset may be a bit pricey for some users.

I have been overall very impressed with this headset. I did have to buy 3rd party ear cups since the ones that are included are not deep enough for me and were a bit uncomfortable after long sessions. Other than that I have no complaints. The sound is great and the the GG software that is included is top-notch. The fact that it also comes with 2 batteries and you can charge one in the dock is also a game changer. Never again will you have to plug in your headset, just swap the batteries! Very happy with my purchase!

Headset sounds great, best headset I’ve owned. love them more then Astro a50/Sony/turtle beach that I’ve owned in the past. the noise cancel is why I bought these. Only cons are price, and my ears did touch some. Upgraded to wc earpads, this helped a lot. If you buy the Xbox ones they work on ps5 as well, but not the other way around. Also Sony did a patch on all 3rd party headsets that will not let you adjust chat volume.

I will admit the headset is on the pricey side of the market but you honestly get what you pay for. This headset is by far the most technically advanced headset I’ve played with. From the amazing battery life, to great sound, and the insane of amount of utility it is in my opinion the best headset available for the Xbox market. The only issue I have is sometimes the noise cancellation piece in the ear piece sometimes rubs against my ear, but that’s a fitment issue not a hardware issue.

Sounds are crisp Battery replacement is great Fits great

I’ve had Astros for 15 years, and I decided to try something new. I will say this was worth the risk; truly impeccable. I love these headphones; please, they are worth the price.

Sound quality is solid and I don’t mind the Steel Series GG application- lightweight and easy to navigate. The swappable battery is great feature. Comfort is lacking for price, they are tight on the head and the ear cups don’t provide a ton of space.

Fantastic depth of sound. Hot swap battery is awesome. Mic sliding into the headset keeps it protected and even the Bluetooth to a phone sounds great. Comfortable for all day gaming

Review This whole setup is amazing. Everyone talks about the sound quality as they should. The most underrated feature though is the second battery and the ability to charge one while playing and swap them out as needed. This allows you to truly be wireless since you don’t have to plug in headset while charging. The headband and ears and also very comfortable on long runs. I never have to adjust like I did with others. Not a streamer. Just a dad who loves gaming and appreciates quality products. Highly recommend.

Best headset i have used, and dual batteries so always ready to go. Light on the head and sound great, fit was great and very comfortable. These are on the pricey side but i would say for me they were worth the higher cost. No wires and extra battery for longer gaming sessions. They also have a good amount of sound customization, console has less than what they do on PC but has more than just volume and game/chat volume. I would recommend these 5 stars for me.
