Customer Ratings & Reviews

Having the option to adjust the volume on both the receiver and the headset is nice. Also, clicking the volume button on the receiver or headset, to switch between overall volume and chat volume is a nice touch. Probably the biggest feature, is the virtually endless battery life, by having a removable battery, with a second one charging in the receiver. Quick to swap and be back to a full charge, while the other battery charges. There are plenty of adjustments that can be made within the application on the pc. The audio sounds great, and the mic is clear.

Went from Astro a50s to these and I’m very please. The ease of swapping batteries is a huge plus on top of the headset connecting to the base is much smoother!

These headphones are comfortable, comes with 2 rechargeable battery pack, one thing I dislike is the echo or feedback you get from the mic being so close to the headphones. Yes, you can hear the game precisely, but if you’re using it to chat as well be prepared to have your friends complain of echoing.

Love these ! Great sound and long the replaceable batteries never get caught in a situation where I don’t have a charge! Highly recommend to get a replaceable spare battery!

Holy cow these are fantastic! Im very picky with my headsets and I probably went through about 6 before I landed on this one. I tried Razer Kaira Pro, TB Stealth 700 Max Gen 2, Sony Pulse, Razer Barracuda, and a few others. Razer Kaira Pros had a really cool haptic feature built into ear cups and sound was great but the mic is absolutely terrible and thats honestly where alot of these mics failed me. I don’t understand how you spend $200 plus on a headset and get an awful mic. These did have better out of the box sound than all the headsets I mentioned above. I have not ran into piece inside ear-cup pressing against me. EQ settings are awesome. I can hear footsteps from all around me now. My favorite part about this headset is the swappable batteries on the fly. When your headset gets low you will get a notification and can pull the spare out of the EQ base station so you never have a dead headset. The mic quality is much nicer on this headset and my teammate’s can hear me much clearer. Also if you are thinking about this headset definitely get the Xbox one as it works with all consoles. I mainly game on my PS5 but also have series X and switch so its nice to be able to swap between. The PS5 version wont work with series X.

Excellent sound and solid microphone makes this an excellent all around headset. The wireless aspect is amazing and the extra battery is very convenient.

Excellent sound quality, easy to use, love the dock for volumen control and extra battery. Can be used while charging.

Absolutely amazing Best headset I've ever gotten a super comfortable breathable light great sound quality just very very impressive. If you don't stream though go for the light model and save yourself half the cost but it is solid construction that swappable batteries the controls everything about is pretty good Love it

Bought this because I really liked the Arctis Pro Wireless. The headset is comfortable and sound is immersive. I only wish it came in white. Although this is a great headset, I don’t use it anymore. Soon after I bought this, Astro came out with the A50x. They have it in white and the biggest feature that all these manufacturers should have is connections for the big 3: PS, Xbox, and PC. Every other manufacturer makes you choose between PC/Xbox or PC/PS. It’s great for most customers since not everyone has all the consoles, but for the ones that do, we have to find a work around or just have a different setup. Although I said I don’t use this anymore and moved to the A50x, this headset is way more comfortable than the A50x and has better sound quality. I would recommend this to people who only have 1 or 2 out of the 3. Get the A50x though if you switch up platforms often.

Overall: 8/10 It’s hard to recommend this to anyone, since most of my friends see that price and go elsewhere. But let’s put away the price. Sound quality is good, comfort is good, the included dac is much simplified than last gens Arctic’s pro wireless, and that was also a good headset with a hefty price tag. The ANC is ok on the Nova pro. Is it necessary? No. Mic is probably the least favorite as the quality is bland. Expected from a wireless headset but if you ever used a Corsair Virtuoso, that mic on wireless 2.4 is top notch and sounds really good. the Nova pro wireless mic sounds like an old phone. But you can tune it with the steel series GG app, it takes some getting used to and really need to play with the app to get the best sound or mic quality from the headphones. The thing that sold me personally is the swappable batteries. And the instant input connection of audio to and from headphones to your speakers. (No need to keep changing Audio source in your sound settings) I’ve owned for a month now and change the batteries every 12 hours of use. Which is pretty good imo.

Love the ability to filter sound channels and hotswap the battery. The PC software could be better

This is everything i ever wanted in a headset, swappable recharging battery, great sound quality, and good mic. Only issues are ear pads are to shallow had to upgrade them with 3rd party, and xbox doesn't support custom settings like pc

The sound quality is outstanding, the noise cancellation feature works perfectly, battery life is great. Hands down the best headphones I have ever owned.

I’ve had this headset for over a year now and I’d say it’s the best headset I’ve ever had. The build of it feels amazing it does not feel like a cheap headset at all. Most of it is made out of metal. The sound it gives is so crisp and clean and they go super loud so you can hear anybody’s footsteps. The 7.1 is also really good on them for hearing which direction someone is or whether they are above or below you. I’ve been gaming for my whole life and I have not had a better headset than this. Also having the 2 battery’s and being able to swap them out is a game changer. I’d say that alone is the best part about them

4.5 rating. Got it for a great deal thanks to best buy price match. Love using the dual wireless/bluetooth to play my games and listen to videos on my phone and the seanless transition between playing and answering a call and going back into chat is just so convenient Swapping batteries and never not having charge to play or enjoy media is great. Only wish the app worked for this model. Requires a pc to maximize sound profiles beyond basic presets or basic custom setting via DAC. If added app support sould be 5/5

Have only been using this for a few hours but am amazed at the sound, comfort, and microphone. The DAC is awesome and allows for tons of customization and so does the SteelSeries Sonar software. Hot-swappable batteries so you never miss a beat. Can be used on any device/console. Simultaneous BT and 2.4ghz use with multiple devices. So far so good!

Picked these up on sale to pair with the software I already had. Very comfortable. The ability to control how your sound is received, delivered, etc is a dream. My only *complaint* if you can call it that, is when listening at higher volumes, it doesnt FEEL louder? I don't know if this is good or bad, but it is. Still 5/5 and would highly reccomend.

Probably the best gaming headset i have used to date. They are comfortable and sound amazing. The dual connection feature is pretty nice to have.

[Employee of bestbuy] Super comfrtonle and eays to setup. Sounds wonderful. Has everything i could ask for inregards to convenience

This headset is great, the sound quality is excellent. It being wireless coming with two batteries so one could charge while you use the other. You never have to worry about it losing power. Its comfortable, I could use it on pc and xbox. Would definitely recommend!
