A: As far as which is better, it depends on what you are willing to trade off. Both headsets are virtually identical as far as sound and function. I believe the Arctis 5 mic. has a higher frequency of 22000Hz vs. the Arctis 7 20000Hz. The higher frequency has a better response to clear and crisp treble. I have the Arctis 7 and I do not find any issues with the treble. What I mean about trade-off is, if you like the idea of having a headset that changes color around the outer headset then the Arctis 5 is for you. The Arctis 5 is a wired headset meaning you will be attached to your gaming device and can not walk around listening to music. If you do not need a headset that changes color, which you can not see while wearing them anyway, and would prefer to have the ability to move around wirelessly, then the Arctis 7 would be your best bet. I personally do not have a need for a color changing headset and also prefer to have wireless. So I chose the Arctis 7. Not disappointed at all.
Q: How long can the batteries last because when I play I spend like 3 hours on their
A: I purchased these about a month ago, the range is amazing. The battery life at this point lasts about 12 hours of non-stop play. It takes about an hour to charge fully. Not sure how long it will stay like this. Hope this helps.
Q: When is this going to be available at Best Buy? I want them and I have a gift card to spend now :)
A: Yes, they will be on shelf starting November 20th.
A: No, the headset s not dishwasher safe.
A: Actually that is not correct. It comes with a plug for it to sync your headset with your system. THAT piece needs to stay plugged in anytime you play, but the headset itself is completely wireless. Only has to be plugged in when charging.
A: The volume dial on the headset is independent from your windows settings. I do not believe they have an auto-off feature. Then come with an adapter cord so you can use them with generic Walkman esque audio ports. Would not want them to shut off unexpectantly while you were listening to a lengthy audiobook or playlist.
A: Yes. wire will still be needed :) The wireless is only for pc, There are a few headsets that have the full wireless function for consoles Ex: Turtlebeach/astros/etc. Id recommend getting the arctis 5 if you're playing on xbox.
A: The wireless transmitter is a USB dongle type transmitter that plugs into one of your USB ports. There are two 3.5 mm. headphone jacks located at the rear of the device for plugging in additional "wired" earphones. The cable of the USB to dongle transmitter has a good length. I have not measured it but I usually keep it bundled together while plugged in since I am usually not far and I do not have anyone else plugging in that I would have to move it toward them. As far as running on a Switch, I really don't know. When I have a chance I will follow up and let you know.
