Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great sound and love the fact that I can change the battery in just seconds. Really easy to switch from pc to xbox which is the main reason. Only flaw for me is that its on ear instead of over ear which hurts after extended use.

Works great. Comfy. Great sound quality. 10 out of 10.

An absolute banger of a headset! I love the design and sleekness of the design. Headsets nowadays seem too clunky and flashy looking but this headset is clean and sleek. The pleather ear cuffs are great and comfortable but aren't as tough as I would like. They're almost too soft. The removable battery pack is great because you can take out the dead one and add the charged one in no time. The second battery pack actually stores and charges in the audio dock which is awesome. I can listen to XBOX audio and computer audio at the same time which is ana amazing feature and you have to use the SONAR technology in the SteelSeries program to get the most out of these headphones. The headphones out of the box sound great but when you play around with the SONAR settings and find the perfect sound for you and the task you are listening to, it is game changing. Now for my CONS which are very minimal other than one. A con is obviously the price. They are typically listed at 350 and I think that is just crazy high. I was lucky enough to get them at 250 and I think they are well worth that price. My next con is the retractable mic. This is mainly me being picky but I would prefer one to just flip up and down but I think the goal here is to also have these to carry to the airport, gym, or other places where a mic might look weird to have so this feature allows for the flexibility of both gaming and everyday activities. Lastly and probably the biggest con is the inability to switch between SONAR settings on the doc. I have two settings, gaming and normal computer/music use. As of now, you have to manually go in the SONAR app and switch your settings between the two in my case. It would be awesome to be able to toggle between the two on the docking station instead of having to use the app. Overall a fantastic product and I am glad to have pulled the trigger on these.

Honestly love these headphones. Ive owned two pairs of Astro A50s and both have died at about 3.5 years. They also have constant update issues. The sounds from these are honestly amazing and so easy to change out batteries. Wish i would have just bought these the first time.

Favorite headset by far, I can connect my phone and Xbox at the same time, the audio is good and you have access to an EQ for PC to change virtually anything, microphone is only okay but you can change the EQ on that to fix the sound

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.

This is my 2nd headset and the only problem I've had is it connecting to my laptop overall the headset works great and is very comfortable the batteries last a few days for me

Lets start with Pros & Cons and I'll go into detail later. As a comparisons these are the other headsets I own and use on a daily basis Razer Blackshark V2 Pro [Wireless] THX Onyx[DAC] paired with Sennheisers 6xx or Sony XM4's This headset I used ONLY on PC since PC is the only way to get the full experience anyway even stated by them Pros: - SteelSeries finally made a headset for all sizes - Upgrade from previous mics - Upgrade in its materials for the headset - Swappable Batteries so you can keep gaming without stopping - Comfort is hit or miss explained later - These things get nice and loud - Out of the box audio settings are decent CONS- You have to download the Sonar app on your pc to get the full use for these headphones. Which in return the steel series will take control for all audio no matter what your using. - The hinges on the headset when it connects to the drivers still made of plastic which was a problem on the arctis pro - Depending on your ears they will touch the drivers directly and I could not play for more then 10-20 minutes without readjusting the headphones so that my ears are not touching the drivers - Using the app "their" recommended equalizer settings are overkill on some games and especially music so you will have to keep tuning to your preference I suggest just doing this from the start - The bluetooth for this only supports SBC which is one of the lowest quality bluetooth codecs it doesnt even support the bare minimum APTxHD your paying 350 for a headset and it doesnt even give u good bluetooth audio At a fraction of the cost if your in for a good headset only for PC I recommend the BlackShark V2 Pros those are better in -Audio-Comfort-MIC-THX Spatial audio- the only thing that headset doesnt do is bluetooth

Got tired off unplugging and plugging between my pc and xbox. Great sound quality pretty comfortable. Cancels out outside noise. Love the fact rather than plugging the headset to recharge it has a battery you can change out pretty quickly.

Steel series will always have the best headsets there is I’ve never bought from anyone else it’s great sounds and great quality and comfortable

The overall headset is Actually really nice, the Audio Quality is amazing, The battery life and the easily swap able batterys, The only real downside an issue which makes it 4/5 stars is the Mic started having an issue with the mute button where its like i would describe a "loose connection" which causes it to rapidly unmute and mute randomly and get stuck muted which is really annoying, happened about 7 months after purchase

Xbox review - Compared to the hyper X cloud wireless, turtle beach stealth 700 wireless and the 600, this headset is an absolute beast. The comfort is off the charts. That was the main issue I had with previous headsets. And it’s a deal breaker, and should be if you’re a marathon gamer. The sound is incredible. The mic clear with no static. I do like being able to retract the mic. And I love the red led light on the mic when it’s muted. Ear cups are super comfy. Headband is so comfy it’s barely noticeable. Metal detachable caps on the headphones and a metal headband cover make a very durable headset. I am impressed. They are a bit pricy, but worth the money.

Like yhe title says, these were a much needed upgrade from the A50s i had been using. They are comfortable, sound amazing, i have yet to lose connection even for a moment, and with 2 swappable batteries, there is zero limit to play time. They are the best headset I've owned, and with their aesthetic, they pass as regular headphones if worn outside of the house.

Absolutely love these headphones! They are comfortable, the audio is very clear, the customizing is great. I use them on 2 different consoles and pc, i have no complaints!

Traded in my Astro A50 for these. I absolutely love this headset. The sound quality and the ability to EQ through the interface is great. I find these to be very comfortable while playing for hours at a time, voice quality is great, way too many features to say no. Did I mention that I never run out of battery because I can swap and charge while playing???!!!

Must have for any gamer period!! Perfect sound, comfortable, battery lasts FOREVER, and one is charging while you're using the other, and even at full volume blast and connected to two devices, you cannot drain the battery faster than youd charge the other 5 times over. Best headset ive ever used, and ive broken and tried over 20. Thanks fortnite

Best headset I’ve ever owned, used for both my xbox and my pc ! Hear all sounds that’s needed to be heard and has a great feel , can wear multiple hours and never make ur ears or head tired !! The exchangeable batteries also are a plus especially if u forget to charge because a battery is always charging

Headset battery life is amazing, I use it with my standing mic on my desk and when not using the microphone on the headset the battery last for days. it super comfortable and super convenient to switch out the batter when it gets low due to being able to have an extra battery charging on the dock so you never really run out of battery.

Could be a little louder over all but nice sound good fit for short gaming stints. More than an hour or 2 and your ears will hurt. Just an annoying paine not really painful.

This headset is so nice! Before I actually had to worry about my headset cord hitting my arm while I play games. This headset comes with replaceable batteries, allowing you to switch them out when one dies. This headset has many features that enhance your gaming sessions
