Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great product. Upgrade from my Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2's because of connectivity issues. Easy to set up and use, great noice cancelling (sometimes too good, per my wife), easy switching between Xbox and USB connect audio. Allows for Bluetooth only connection by using the Bluetooth button to turn on headset. Chat mixer and master volume control are easy to use and the display unit showing the mix ratio is easy to read from my chair about 6 feet away. Head strap adjustable simply and is very comfortable for long sessions. My only complaint is that the ear well of the head set is not quite deep enough for me and this causes my ears to fold a little bit. That will tend to get uncomfortable during long sessions. Low decibel sound can cause a "thrumming" with the noice cancelling. My wall mount AC unit in my apartment is about 10 feet from my headset and this is picked up by the noice cancelling. Battery has a decent life lasting multiple sessions. Overall, very happy with the purchase and would recommend it to anyone looking for a quality headset

I previously had the Steelseries 9x and thought it was amazing but after switching to the Nova pro wireless I can’t go back. I love how it feels on my head, the ear cups fit wonderfully and block a lot of outside noise on their own and I do not feel the ANC module on the inside of the cups like others have mentioned here. I was also upset that they don’t have the airweave cushion available for this but after using it I don’t mind they do just get a little warm but it’s not bad for me. I love the hot swappable batteries and the desk module is not bad I didn’t like the previous Arctis module but this one is a lot better and way smaller in fact it’s a lot smaller than the 9x headset too and I got the hard shell case for it from Steelseries website and it is an amazing case. I like the software you can make a few changes but most of the settings are on the module and I don’t have a PC for the Sonar thing but it’s still amazing sound out of the box. I love the noise cancellation and that I could still hear some outside louder noises I needed to pay attention to if needed. The only thing negative I can say is that the bluetooth doesn’t turn off when turning off the main power button you have to turn off bluetooth seperatly so unless you have the setting changed to don’t automatically turn on Bluetooth then you don’t need to turn it off if you don’t use it but still not hard to turn it off just wish it turned it all off like the 9x did. The module display also does turn off when I turn off my Xbox so that must have been fixed since others mentioned it stayed on even while off. Overall this device is worth it and I highly recommend it. I wish I would have gotten this sooner don’t wait like I did.

Obsessed! This headset is super comfortable and feels lightweight when wearing. The earcups are comfortable, and actually don’t make my ears feel hot like some other pleather cups do. The headset is easy to adjust for the perfect fit. I LOVE being able to switch out the batteries and never having to be hooked up to a charging cord. You just pop off the magnetic cover on the right ear cup and switch it out, easy peasy. The headset automatically reconnects within seconds. The preloaded presets are nice. I haven’t even attempted to make a custom one because I like the ones it came with. Sound is INSANE. I am deaf in one ear and nearly deaf in the other and I can get these loud enough to hear footsteps. If you don’t have hearing loss these get loud enough to give you some. Bluetooth is easy to connect to my phone, and I love that I can walk around with my phone and stay connected and not have to be near the hub. Range on these is really good too!! Everyone I’ve chatted with says mic quality is really good, both over console and on the phone. I’ve been happy with it in the clips I have taken. I haven’t used the headset with more than just my console, so I can’t speak to the ease of switching between PC/Console. My one complaint is the neef in sidetone. If you had an older SteelSeries you may be familiar with sidetone - and I know it’s not a popular choice, but I always kept mine wide open because I like being able to hear everything going on in my house while I’m gaming, or be able to have a conversation with someone in the room while gaming. Even at the highest level with these, I can’t hear anything. So for those of you that love noise canceling - these are going to be an absolute dream for you.

The best gaming headset I could find. The software is a bit tricky/complicated, but not too bad. You'll definitely need to make adjustments out of the box. The complaints I've read are almost all user error. You can fix them in the software. I have a large head. Hat size ~8 1/4. They were a bit too snug out of the box. Not nearly as bad as most, though. That issue is also fixable. If you carely stress the metal band at the top backwards, it will eventually loosen up a bit. I can't tell these are on my head anymore. I also upgraded the ear cups, as recommended by many online reviewers. They were comfortable enough out of the box, but with the upgraded cups and the band bend trick... They're perfect. Having the supplied spare battery is a big win. The input out on the controller is a plus. I have my speakers connected directly to this and never have to change audio inputs.

The SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless is, hands down, one of the best headsets I’ve ever used. From build quality to audio performance, everything about it screams premium. Straight out of the box, it feels like a top-tier product—solid, sleek, and thoughtfully designed. Comfort is top-notch too. The headset is lightweight, well-padded, and easy to wear for long sessions. The retractable mic is clear and discreet, perfect for gaming or work.

Great audio, range and simple connectivity. My last pair lasted 8 years, I was due for an update, but wow, these are amazing. Love the battery life and the fact that it comes with a back up that’s always charging.

The sound quality and directional sound of these headphones are excellent. They are comfortable for long gaming sessions. They come with 2 interchangeable batteries, so one can be charging while the other is in use.

Headset is one of the best I've had. It is comfortable and can game with it for a good 10 hr. Interchangeable battery makes it even longer. Love the noise cancelling and passthrough feature, as well as bluetooth. I enjoy listening to music while I play so having it connected to my phone is a plus! I would recommend this for purchase and even a gift for any video gamer.

The Arctis Nova Pro Wireless has been one of the best gaming purchases I’ve made. The sound quality is amazing with clear highs and deep bass that makes games and music sound great. The noise cancellation works really well and blocks out distractions when I want to focus. They are super comfortable and I can wear them for long sessions without any issues. The swappable battery system is a huge plus since I never have to stop and wait for them to charge.

This a are comfortable. High quality and sound good. I think the Astro A50 carries subtle sounds better. The swappable battery is amazing! One charging while you're playing. I just wish these were open back. I find myself only wearing one cup over my ears. So I can hear my surroundings.

The SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless Multi Gaming Headset is a true revelation for avid gamers seeking a high-quality audio experience without the hassle of wires. As a proud owner of this headset, I can confidently say that it delivers on its promises, providing an immersive gaming soundstage that enhances every aspect of the gaming experience. First and foremost, the wireless connectivity of the Arctis Nova Pro is a game-changer. The 2.4GHz wireless technology ensures a stable and lag-free connection, allowing me to move freely without being tethered to my gaming console or PC.

The sound quality is where the Arctis Nova Pro truly shines.

The DTS Headphone:X v2.0 surround sound technology further immerses you in your gaming environment, providing a competitive edge by accurately pinpointing the direction of in-game sounds. Comfort is a key aspect of any gaming headset, and the Arctis Nova Pro excels in this department. The ski goggle-inspired headband ensures a snug yet comfortable fit, while the breathable ear cushions keep me gaming for extended periods without discomfort. The retractable ClearCast microphone is a fantastic addition, delivering crystal-clear voice communication with minimal background noise – a must for multiplayer gaming. Battery life is impressive, providing ample playtime on a single charge. The included dual-battery system ensures that one battery can be charging while the other is in use, eliminating downtime during intense gaming sessions.

If you're serious about gaming and demand a wireless headset that delivers on all fronts, the Arctis Nova Pro is an investment that won't disappoint. It's a true testament to SteelSeries' commitment to elevating the gaming experience through cutting-edge technology and design.

Headset is a straight upgrade in quality over the previous Arctis Pro. As someone who uses my headset for many different devices, it's nice that it works with all of them. The sound is good and microphone quality is what you would expect from a wireless headset. The battery life is phenomenal and lasts me about 20+ hrs. But if that's still not enough the quick swap batteries take only a few seconds to switch. However, the headset is best used through SteelSeries' Sonar software. Without it, EQ options and customization is limited. A large annoyance is the ANC speaker in the ear piece protrudes far enough to hurt after a while. This was solved with custom ear pads but, I feel this should not be necessary for a 350$ headset. Pictures included show the piece im talking about and the stock width (detatched one) vs the new earpieces. The last disappointment is the connectors between the headband and earpieces are plastic again which will be the first piece to break after wear and tear. Pros - battery life - sound quality - multisource audio Cons - nub in earpiece protrudes - expensive - plastic earpiece connectors return Quirks - loss of optical audio input may affect setups - sonar, while nice, does not affect the xbox input - head band has limited adjustments and may be small for those with large hair

Overall this is a fantastic headset. I’ve owned the Astro A50 and those sound great and are comfortable And come with a base to set the headset in. This headset beats out the Astro A50 by a hair AND has an extra battery to swap out so you don’t have to recharge. The only downside is not having a stand or base. The headset makes up for it and comfortability sound quality being able to change the battery out and overall solid style.

I was a fan of turtle beach for years till i realized there is something better...WAY BETTER..The sound quality on these are amazing.the batter life is awesome I wear glasses and the comfort with these are amazing. I sometimes forget i have my glasses on. I couldnt stress enough how these have changed the way i game ..its like you are in the game. If you can afford to buy these take the leap and buy these ..they will not disappoint..HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

This headset is so cool. Great sound quality. You can adjust custom sound preset at the fly without having to use your computer to change settings like other brands. You can connect to bluetooth so you can hear game audio and talk on the phone at the same time. Comes with two batteries to keep you gaming. It also has a headphone jack which i love to use with my asus rog ally. Mic is so good you can whisper if you change sensitivity settings so you can game at night and your teammates hear you loud and clear. My friend asked me what headset i had because i could hear foot steps and on his headset he couldn’t. He immediately went and bought the same headset i have. Take your competitive gaming to new heights with this headset.

I bought these headphones to replace my aging Sony 1000XM4's. My XM4's are having a hard time with my laptops Intel Wifi 6E AX210 cards Bluetooth cutting out every now and then which was never an issue with the Previous laptop, but I also wanted to get away from the BT connection and try a dedicated transmitter. I can say these go a further distance wirelessly and through more walls than my XM4's, but the ANC is not nearly was powerful. These headphones would greatly benefit from aftermarket ear pads. Im hoping someone like Dekoni makes some super soft leather pads to replace the stock on these as pressing the OEM pads slightly against your ears when worn greatly improves the ANC by isolating the ears more. Overall I have tried to get these to sound similar to the XM4's and have come close, but they arent quite as good. They are close, but the XM4's I feel like have slightly more range of sound at both the high end and low (this is using the SONAR software on PC to adjust). If I want to listen to music, I find myself switching back to my XM4's. If I had to do it again, I probably would have tried the XM5's. The pod with the digital read out is unique and the temps/usage for GPU/CPU are a nice touch when gaming, but the display being black and white loses its appeal after a few mins. Build quality is sturdy, but the circle caps are being held on via magnets. The one side that houses the battery, seems like its barely being held in place, but it hasnt fallen off yet. The battery charger in the pod base is also a little odd. You press it in and down somewhat like an NES game cartridge. This initially threw me because it kept popping out and wouldnt stay in to charge. But pressing it down once in, it stays.

After a bunch of research and Youtube videos I decided on this headset. I picked it up for about $270 on sale. I picked this one because it works with the Xbox and the PS5 by just plugging it in, no setup necessary just plug and play. The PS5 version only works with it and PC or Switch while this set works with them all. The sound quality is top notch with Dolby Atmos or DTSX. Its light and comfortable, battery life is great and even comes with another battery so you can hot swap without even turning them off. Cant recommend enough.

got this gift for my husband who loves it. lovw that its compatible with almost all consoles. love that its wireless and sound quality is great
