    Exceptional Sound Quality and Comfort

    I recently purchased the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless Gaming Headset for my Xbox Series X, and I have to say, it exceeded my expectations. Sound Quality: The audio performance is truly top-tier. Whether I'm immersed in an intense multiplayer game or enjoying a single-player campaign, the sound clarity and depth stand out. The 360-degree spatial audio enhances directional cues, making gameplay feel incredibly immersive. I also appreciate the customization options using the SteelSeries Sonar software to fine-tune EQ settings. Comfort: Comfort was a big priority for me, and this headset delivers. The adjustable headband and plush ear cushions ensure long gaming sessions are fatigue-free. Even after hours of wear, the headset remains lightweight and doesn’t clamp too tightly. Battery Life: The dual-battery system is a game-changer. Swapping out batteries on the fly means I never have to pause my game to recharge. Each battery lasts about 20 hours, which is more than enough for a day or two of heavy use. Connectivity: The wireless connection is rock-solid with virtually no latency. It works seamlessly with my Xbox Series X, and I love the versatility of also using it with other devices via Bluetooth. Microphone: The noise-canceling microphone performs well—my friends mentioned how clear my voice sounds during chats, even in louder environments. Final Thoughts: If you're looking for a high-end wireless headset for gaming, the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless is worth every penny. It combines premium sound, comfort, and innovative features that elevate the gaming experience. Highly recommended for serious gamers who want quality and performance.

    The Absolute Best Gaming Headset!

    With amazing sound, continous battery life and the ability to change your sound profile in seconds, The Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless headphones are the most expensive headset I've ever bought, but they're also above and beyond in terms of sound quality, comfort and weight. Once plugged in, steel series prompted me to download it's software, which easily recognized the headset and gave me the ability to set up different sound profiles to suit my taste. You can change the sound in seconds to whatever you want, but you also have the ability to change the way you sound to other people you talk with through chat. It has mic monitoring, and there are a ton of different pre-made profiles for games you already may play. Steelseries also had the brilliant idea of including hotswap rechargeable batteries, and the ability to play through bluetooth and connect to 3 different devices at once. I use them with my Xbox Series X, Gaming laptop and phone, which allows me to easily switch between systems while playing music through Spotify, watching videos or talking on my phone. I was playing Fortnite and could hear people through walls and bushes like it was a super power. At $350US dollars, these are expensive, but in my opinion these are absolutely worth every penny!

    I love these headphones they are so wonderfully crafted comfort fitting sound quality is awesome and the dual rechargeable lithium Ion battery packs it comes with and the charger and multi ways to charge it make these 7.1 surround sound bring the game to life Emerson of sound great for gamers who want to play and not wake up neighbors or your sleeping family or just all around simplicity privacy I love them only complaint is the wires to the headphones and a stereo reciever in home aka headphone jack mic jack short but the head phones are wireless blue tooth once fully charged so it won’t matter for the most part you can always buy a longer dual end headphone cord. And the foam mouth mic cover easy to lose. But easy to replace so all in all quality out performs the small minor issues.

    I bought the Nova Pro wireless knowing it was expensive so I'm not going to complain about that. It's $350 but worth every penny if you honestly think about it. It works on every device excluding a Apple device with a thunderbolt connection. Has 2 hot-swappable 22hr playtime batteries included. Can be used wired with the included 3.5mm cable if needed. It's a premium quality built headset that is incredibly comfortable right out of the box. I hooked it up to my Series S and played Apex Legends for about 3hrs. Even without tinkering on the base station I was able to hear everything crystal clear. Actually won my first 3 games using these these. Microphone came across crystal clear according to teammates I played with. Honestly cannot recommend this headset enough if you can look past it's price. Hell I had the $500 Bang & Olufssen Beoplay Portals when they came out and these blow them out of the water in every category from build quality to sound to . microphone

    Why You Should Buy The Arctis Nova Pro Wireless.

    I love my Arctis Nova Pro Wireless. Comes with two Batteries, One on the headphones and the other in the charging station. I sometimes use the headphones for up to ten hours, and they do not fail me. Swap out the battery, and I got another full day's battery charge. There's nothing I hate more than depending on my headphones and the batty running out. The headphones are comfortable, the mic is excellent, and the sound quality is superb: Bam, a winner. If you need more time, look at all the other's reviews, and you will see they have issues with low battery performance. Nothing worst. Not here. My only regret is that I paid more than their current price. But worth it. Don't have regrets; buy the Steelseries, Arctis Nova Pro Wireless.

    An All-Rounder Gaming Headset that Excels in Every

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I cannot express enough how impressed I am with the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless Multi Gaming Headset for Xbox. (I got this version because the licensing for Xbox also includes and works with the PS5 and PC... though the other version that does NOT specify Xbox would've missed out on this feature) I primarily play on PC. This isn't just another gaming headset; it's an audio experience that sets a new bar for what a gaming headset should be. Unmatched Comfort Let's begin with the comfort level, which is simply unparalleled. Crafted from premium metal and soft leather, it feels like I'm wearing a cushion around my ears. Lengthy gaming sessions that used to lead to discomfort are now a thing of the past. Without a doubt, this is the most comfortable headset I've ever owned. Sleek Aesthetic Aesthetically, the headset features a pure black design, blending professionalism with a sleek, stylish look. It's the kind of accessory that makes a statement without screaming for attention, effortlessly fitting into any gaming setup. Feature-Packed The SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro comes loaded with features that gamers will love. The retractable mic is not only convenient but also practical for both solo and multiplayer gaming experiences. The noise cancellation feature performs remarkably well, especially when you want full immersion without the distractions of the outside world. Add to this a seamless 2.4 GHz wireless PC connection and hot-swappable batteries, and you're looking at a headset that leaves nothing to be desired. Exceptional Audio Experience What really sets this headset apart is the audio quality. Whether I'm playing shooters, RPGs, or racing games, the sound stage is just phenomenal. The headset perfectly captures the visceral audio tracks, delivering crisp highs and deep lows. You can fine-tune the audio settings for each game or media type, ensuring that you're not missing out on any part of the audio spectrum. It's an auditory experience that genuinely elevates gaming to a whole new level. Versatile Use While this is predominantly a gaming headset, it doesn't stop there. I've used it for listening to various genres of music and for movie watching, and it has performed admirably. The headset is also a great companion for work, especially for videoconferencing, thanks to its retractable microphone, lightweight build, and wireless capabilities. However, where it truly shines is in delivering a top-notch gaming experience. Final Thoughts The SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless Multi Gaming Headset doesn't just meet my expectations; it surpasses them in every way. This is a purchase you won't regret, and it's an investment that will pay off every time you put the headset on. Highly recommended for anyone looking to elevate their gaming experience.

    Upgraded Arctis Pro Wireless but why SteelSeries?

    First off, at $350 this headset is on the high end in terms of price. It is definitely an improvement over the Arctis Pro Wireless headset, if for no other reason than the fact that it can fit over my adult sized American noggin. I also like that it can connect to my PS5, XBox X and everything else. The software is clunky at the moment and i hope some of theminor connectivity issues other reviewers mention are worked out with future software tweaks. Love the new headband and the leather ear cups. Way more comfortable. But why Steel series made a PS versiom when the X Box version does it all, i will never understand. Do not buy the PS Version. Theres no reason to.

    I have had Astro A50s and turtle beachs, these blow those headsets put tof the water. I couldnt use the other headsets with both playstation and xbox. I can use the arctis with my pc, Playstation, my xbox, and it has bluetooth so i can connect to my phone. The comfort is also epic. There is a small piece that allows for adjustment of how tight the headset is so that the piece that sits on your head doesnt dig in (great for those with sensitive scalps). The range is awesome. I can walk to my kitchen and still be connected. Highly reccomend! I won't go back to any other headset.

    Just absolutely amazing! I have a PS5, Xbox Series X and a Switch. I love that this headset can connect to all of them very easily. I also love the duel Bluetooth. I can listen to YouTube videos on my Phone or IPad at the same time I’m playing video games. Works perfectly and the Comfort is the best. I originally was going with the Logitech Pro X2 Lightspeed because i loved the look, but the feel and sound quality of the Arctic’s Nova Pro is just amazing and worth every penny.

    Steel series Nova Pro review ⭐️✨

    I purchased the Nova pro steel series as an upgrade from my previous headset steel series Arctic’s 7x . These headsets are well made and good quality although My only complaint is that the ear cups were a bit small for big ears compared to my 7x headset which were perfect in ear cup size ( comfortable). The headset is perfect in sound quality for gaming and listing music , battery life is more than you will need +. Has great features such as noise cancellation , eq settings , Bluetooth connectivity to your phone ect, simultaneously connects to multiple devices at the same time so you can game and answer your phone on one headset . I upgraded my ear cups for more ear space and also for better heat dissipation for my ears so get a little heated gaming from long hours of gaming and just over all use , other than that premium value and over all premium quality is a 5 out of five stars ⭐️✨* these headset are adjustable to head size and also has a head band and comes with two batteries and a charging dock station . The headset is also highly customizable ear plates , ear cups and headband all upgradable and of course C type usb for fast charging ect

    Absolutely stellar. Elite, luxurious, plushy ear cups. Easy to use and adjust settings from headset itself (doesn’t need an app!) The noise cancellation is on point. Not to mention they are very well built. Craftsmanship is 10/10. Will not be buying turtle beaches again. Expensive but definitely worth the money!

    I review headsets a lot on YouTube and the Nova Pro Wireless seriously hits it out of the park. It's a step up in build quality from the Arctis Pro, with better sound quality and more features as well. The Nova Pro sound quality has a lot of detail and some boosted treble, like the other Arctis line, but it's much more refined here. Gone is any harshness to the sound that I wasn't a fan of on prior SteelSeries headsets. The microphone quality is top notch. Easily in the top 3 along with the Corsair HS80 and Virtuoso RGB XT. It tucks away nicely when you don't use it. You can't custom EQ bluetooth but it still sounds really nice, and get's incredibly loud. Some of the special features like Sonar only work with PC, so while this still works great on Xbox AND PlayStation (yes the Xbox version works wirelessly on PlayStation), you can't use every feature like the custom game EQ presets on console. That's the way it as at launch anyway. Wireless performance is excellent, with very low latency, long wireless range, and great sound quality. I never had signal drop out issues. Comfort is good with a medium to light clamp force. The leather ear pads are excellent, though not as plush as the Epos H3PRO Hybrid (which is softer but has a more firm clamp force). Thin frame glasses are good to go with the Nova Pro. With thick frame you may adjust it more. There's a lot you can do with this and only so much I can write, but I'd check out my name on YouTube if you want to learn everything about it. Overall these are a solid 10 to me.

    These wireless headphones work seamlessly with either your computer or Xbox. I'd imagine the same could be said for PlayStation, I just don't own one. I would highly recommend these to anyone who is looking to upgrade their $60-$100 headset. I almost forgot, the best part is the battery is removable and it comes with an extra battery. The spare can be charged via the base station so, you'll never need to worry about running out of power.
