I’ve had this headset for about two years now. It is comfortable, and has pretty good audio quality. The software is nice with Sonar and all of the available adjustments. The battery Life is great, all though nowadays some have much better life.
The only issue I’ve had is a couple of times it has not wanted to turn on and connect, and I had to hard reset them. Overall a slightly annoying minor issue.

I've been looking for new pair of headsets to replace Logitech G935. What I needed the most is good bass and good 7.1. I found these in Steelseries Arctis 7+.
Using Sonar software you can change sound in what ever way you want it to sounds. Headset very comfy , excellent battery life.
What I do not like is very strange dongle! I do not mind USB-C but shape of dingle! It inly useful for mobile devices but totally bad for PC and consoles. Yes, you have extender cord for this, but I do not like cords all over my table

Several years ago I purchased the Arctis Pro Wireless, a $350 headset, and fell completely in love with it. It was everything I could ever ask for. Bluetooth compatible, battery bank which allowed for 24/7 wireless connectivity, amazing audio, and comfortability. Unfortunately, I would manage to break it and seeing how it was out of warranty, I went down a long path of trying out probably almost 10 different gaming headsets. From Logitech to HyperX to Corsair to Razer, I would end up returning these headsets after only a couple of months of use because of one annoyance or another. I didn't realize until I finally got the 7+ I was just missing everything about the Arctis. There's something about Arctis that just sets the standard for all other headsets I've ever used. I would return all other headsets because they just couldn't measure up to one aspect to it or another.
The Arctis 7+ essentially ports everything from the Arctis 7 but with a 30 hour wireless battery life and usb-c charging. And honestly, for only $20 more, I think this thing is a steal. The audio is clear and high quality, I'm easily able to tell which direction sound is coming from. The headband is nice and comfortable and doesn't leave as much of an imprint as other headsets. The wireless dongle is also usb-c so its compatible with all Android phones if you want to use it on the go. The headset mic is acceptable quality, but I mostly use it as a sidetone. The software is super easy to use and I only needed some minor EQ tuning to get the audio to EXACTLY how I like it. I am so glad to be back in Arctis family and I don't think I'll be changing headsets anytime soon.

Positive:
-Like all steel series, it’s the most comfy head set I ever worn.
-Great sound.
-clear and loud mic
-simple set up and easy to use
Negative
-doesn’t pair remote Bluetooth to phone
-No EQ adjustments straight off the headset
-can definitely tell my 9 series Xbox steel series is higher quality in every way, some notices are small
Summary
If u can afford the better versions of steel series headsets for PS5, do it. You’ll own it for years, and it’s nice to have the options like Bluetooth and to mold the sound EQ and levels more the way u want. But if u don’t care about tweaking too much, or mind hooking up ur phone via a cable, and just want a good sounding, comfortable headset, go for it 100%.

Overall, this is an amazing wireless headset. Huge upgrade over my old razer headset. It has amazing battery life, I've been using it daily for over a week and it still has about half left (give or take) according to steelseries gg. It sounds great and I've been told the mic sounds better than my old headset. I have no complaints.

I may have only had this for not even a month, but I say it flies with beautiful colors in terms of usage, ease of use, and sound. The software makes this headset unique, even if you don't use it.
Physically it fits well and feels comfortable; at times, you don't even feel it, and you are just surrounded by sound and immersed in what you are listening to or watching.
Sonar is an excellent software already added to the SteelSeries impressive base software. I may not know how to use the EQ effectively, but I enjoy it nonetheless.
The price is high, but for a longevity headset for immersion and gamers who love to be in the action, It is worth every penny.
Even using it for Discord is impressive; you can split the sound and not have to worry about messing that up by using a specific game EQ preset to hear something better while still making chatting with allies clear. The mic sounds amazing and clear, according to my teammates in discord; they even said it sounded better than a Razer Nari headset I had a while back, which was an improvement.

Great headset! Sound is great! Comfortable for hours. And the feature of hearing your voice in the headset helps me not scream when i talk lol... to set up is eazy and a little confusing at first but once you figure it out its cake! Worth the buy for a gaming headset/mic

The Arctis 7+ is such a great headset. I needed to find a headset to switch and play games between my PS5 and PC and this surely blew it out of the water. Great quality build, mic can be tucked in when not used and comes with a mute button and you’re able to adjust the volume also from the headset itself.

The Ultimate Gaming Headset!

As an avid gamer, I've been through my fair share of headsets, but the SteelSeries Arctis 7+ Wireless has set a new standard for what I expect from my audio gear. Right out of the box, the headset screams quality with its sleek black design and durable steel frame. It's evident that SteelSeries has put thought into every aspect of this device, and it pays off.
The 7.1 Surround Sound is specifically tuned to pick up every detail in the gaming environment, giving you the edge you need to excel in competitive play. The Sonar 7.1 Virtual Surround on PC envelopes you in the game's world, providing an incredibly immersive experience that has to be heard to be believed.
Battery life is always a concern with wireless devices, but not here. The 30-hour battery life is a game-changer, and the quick charge feature adding 3 hours of playtime from just a 15-minute charge means I'm never left hanging when I forget to plug it in overnight.
SteelSeries’ all-platform capability is a dream come true. The transition is seamless when switching from my PS5 to my PC and then to the Nintendo Switch. The compact USB-C dongle is easy to use and ensures that I'm always ready to jump into a game, no matter the platform.
The ClearCast microphone is another standout feature. It's not just Discord Certified; it's the clarity that impresses me the most. It picks up my voice perfectly and eliminates background noise, so my teammates and I can communicate without any misunderstandings.
Moreover, the 2.4GHz wireless connection is flawless. The ultra-low latency ensures that my gaming sessions are in real-time, which is critical for fast-paced games where every millisecond counts.
Comfort is paramount in long gaming sessions, and the Arctis 7+ delivers. The ski-goggle band provides a personalized fit, and the lightweight design means I barely notice it's there even after hours of play.
The on-ear controls are the cherry on top - volume adjustments and mic muting are easily accessible. Plus, the ChatMix feature allows me to manage game and chat audio on the fly, ensuring I'm always immersed in the game while still engaged with my teammates.
In summary, the SteelSeries Arctis 7+ Wireless is a masterclass in gaming headset design. It offers a complete package - from its unrivaled sound quality and comfort to its versatile functionality and robust build. It has earned its place at the top of my gaming setup, and I can confidently say it is the best headset I've ever owned. A well-deserved five stars!

GREAT HEADSET minor defects

Very good headset IMPECCABLE sound quality but does have a few slight defects like the sound of whatever you are hearing or playing suddenly glitching out and going into a repetitive noise type of thing. Mic quality is fairly decent it has no pop filter so it does pop if you raise your voice depending how close it is to your mouth. Controls on the headset itself are great the noise cancelling works really great. I used to game quite a lot and the headset battery would last me at least 3 day on a full charge. The cushions on the headset are not leather and they feel so nice and very comfortable to be honest this is one of the most comfortable headsets I’ve ever had due to the added bonus of the elastic overhead band

Top notch comfort, lightweight, top tier battery life and above average mic. I’ve had dozens of headsets over the years and if these broke today, I’d buy them again tomorrow.
For me personally, I find that wearing glasses causes some discomfort after 2 hours. Others have said otherwise. The type of glasses and head size certainly dictate this.
The sound quality is above average. Maybe 6-7 out of 10. Depending on what you’re use to, it could be an upgrade or downgrade. However, I don’t find myself ever thinking that I need better audio quality spite having used many headsets with better audio quality.

They are very comfortable, and they sound great - when they work right.
I'm constantly having to reinstall the software, like every week, because they will just lose the connection. Apparently this is incredibly common with these, and the best way to use them is to uninstall all the fancy software and let Windows just recognize them as (Headphones - Artic 7x) .. They more or less sound the same, maybe not quite the simulated surround for some games, but it's like 90% the same, and not having to reinstall the dang software every week is worth it.
So yeah, ok headphones, craptastic software and the IT support from the company doesn't know their butt from a hole in the ground, dealt with them far too many times over this issue.
Just search Reddit, you'll find better answers.

These are great. High fidelity sounds for both music and games. Solid bass and good highs and mids. The software is pretty impressive as well, especially for streaming purposes. I can connect two PCs via Bluetooth and the dongle, then I can mute chat from discord in stream.

This is by far my favorite headset. I am a giver and I hate playing with people who have crappy headsets. So this is honestly my 6th purchase of this headset. There is always a good deal on them so I’ve purchased for people I like to play with. It’s all I use and when the receiver gets them it increases their game. They can finally hear the footsteps that I’ve been telling them about and I don’t have to listen to their fan when I play. Win win. You can hook up to your computer and set the preferences you want for the best gameplay.
