SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1p Gaming Headset (White)

i've been using the headset for about 3 weeks now and i can say im very happy with it. My only concern has been the joints where the headphones meet the headband as theyre kind of weak looking - but theyre solid and made out of solid material and after having the headset in hand its not much of a concern. The sound quality is great after a little bit if fine tuning in the steelseries eq software that you have to download for the headset. It doesnt sound amazing out of the box with no eq settings but its still passable but with the eq its definitely a LOT better so play around with it and get it to where you like your sound. The mic is a lot better than i had anticipated aswell. I've watched multiple reviews on the headset before deciding to purchase it and was very ... Morei've been using the headset for about 3 weeks now and i can say im very happy with it.

The mic is a lot better than i had anticipated aswell. I've watched multiple reviews on the headset before deciding to purchase it and was very pleasantly surprised to find out that the mic is loads better than my previous headset mic. (hyper x cloud stinger). Given that is a budget option it makes sense, but i was under the impression wireless headsets compromise the quality of the microphone. Well that seems to be kind of false as this mic is actually very good. The only thing i would suggest is getting a little foam tip pop filter for the mic as S sounds can have a hiss to them from this mic but other than that i would say its pretty flawless. The skimask type headband also surprised me with how comfortable it is its a very comfortable headset and doesnt cause any discomfort over long periods of time. If you have a humungous head then this headset may be hard to fit on your head but the biggest setting fits me comfortably. (6'4" 210 lbs for reference with fairly sizable head). The only knock i can put on this headset is that it doesnt come with an aux cord so you can plug your phone or what have you into the receiver to listen to music while gaming at the same time. The headset also has a game/chat wheel feature which is very nice if you get into clutch moments and need to only hear the game and shut off any discord sounds in the background of loud friends or what have you. Overall this headset is worth the purchase and if youre looking at getting a new wireless headset i would recommend it as it beats headsets in terms of quality at even higher price points than this. Steelseries has done a good job with their headsets and if you get even newer models im sure they'd have improved on what they had already established. PS: Im glad i did research before ordering as the Arctis 9x and the arctis 7 are essentially the same headset but i thought higher number = better headset like a monkey brain. The sole difference is that the 9x is specifically for console whereas the 7 can be used for basically everything (could be wrong) but it works for PC and should have SOME compatibility with consoles but not full capabilities.. But the 9x is specifically FOR xbox. So if you mainly play on PC then dont even look at the 9x model.

Absolutely a phenomenal headset! As a gamer I need a headset that delivers quality sound and Steelseries did not disappoint! The sound quality is top tier - crystal clear sound and even clearer when hearing footsteps in game! I love that this headset allows you to customize the sound to your own preferences! You can adjust the chat volumn on the headset itself which comes in handy! I like the retractable mic making the headset look very clean when not in use. To mute the mic it’s easy with just a button click. Set up is extremely easy with just hooking up the receiver to your device and turning on the headset. Charging the headset takes no time at all and holds a charge all through extended game play! The headset is extremely comfortable and light on your head ... MoreAbsolutely a phenomenal headset!

I also like that they come with multiple different cords making the headset universal on multiple device/gaming device. Highly Recommend these!

You get what you pay for. I was a little disappointed when we got these home and almost brought them back. On the website description, the product claims to have a USB C cable in the box. This was not included and I don't know where it would be plugged in. You MUST use these plugged into your controller and there is no rechargeable battery in the headset. Also didn't get ANY of the free items associated with the product when we bought them (Apple TV, Fubo, Amazon Unlimited). I believe the receipt was cut off early by the associate at the store. Customer service wasn't very helpful in all that either, so we missed out on some perks. I guess I need to buy the membership rather than use the free one (which seems pretty sad). Headset is good, experience was not as good.
