Good value bundle. It's mainly lacking a star because of my personal preferences. I would have preferred a wired mouse, but this bundle was too good to pass up.
Headset: To update when tested
Mouse: Seems slow to respond even on 2.4 gz
Keyboard: Love love love! The volume roller is addicting to touch
Mouse pad: Great size, not too big, not too small.

If you’re looking for a great bundle for your gaming pleasure, this is it!
First and foremost, I ordered this on a Saturday and it was on my doorstep on Monday— super fast shipping.
The wireless headset is the real star of this bundle. Great sound quality, easy to set up, and easy to charge. The keyboard is smooth and quiet while also having that mechanical feel you love. The mouse is very lightweight and has adjustable DPI settings right on the front of the mouse, making adjusting your DPI an easy switch with just a flick of your finger.
SteelSeries quality is second to none and the program that you download which shows all of your products makes customization a breeze.
I am blown away by this. I paid $130 with tax while on sale and it was one of the smartest decisions I’ve ever made.

Bought this bundle while it was on sale at $130. I use my pc for work and gaming and this bundle has been great so far.
The Arctis 1 has been awesome. Wireless, detachable mic, buttons on headphones are easy to use. No complaints whatsoever.
The Apex 3 Keyboard is great. The keys are raised, sitting on white plastic. The plastic gives a sort of muted effect to RGB colors, but it doesn't look bad at all. Keys have a tactile bump, pretty satisfying to type on it. Comes with a wrist wrest that has sort of a smooth rubber texture so it does collect some dirt/oil. Make sure to clean it every once in a while.
Only gripe with this bundle is the mouse. Its a bit small for my hands but I have medium/large hands so it might not be too bad for others. You might want to check the specifications for the exact size to make sure it's right for you.
I don't know if I'd buy this for $199 since the mouse isn't ideal for me, but if it goes back down to $130 then I'd highly recommend.

Got this bundle as a Black Friday Weekend Deal at a hundred bucks. At that price the included items were a steal to get a rig from casual gaming to entry level eSports.
The keyboard is a nice tactile mechanical affair between general consumer keyboards and high grade offerings from Logitech, Corsair, and Razer.
The mouse is wireless with 2.4ghz and Bluetooth options. It is probably the weakest part of the bundle with squeaky mouse buttons that I am hoping to wear in with some use.
The headset is where this really shines. It is the wireless Arctis 1 with a removeable microphone boom. It uses a proprietary USB-C dongle that has really good range. This allows it to be used with basically every online gaming option you could imagine (PC, Switch, PS4/5, XBox, etc). It has an analog volume slider on the headset and a mute switch. When playing Overwatch I've not had any issues with teammates talking about muffled or crackling sound so I think it is good to go in that regard.
All in all I think this bundle is best for someone dipping their toes into eSports or gaming that is either PvP or team based. Obviously if someone is looking to run Platinum in a ladder they will want discreet gear but I don't think this bundle pretends to be in that lane.

The keyboard design with the wrist rest is better than my previous keyboards.
The headset has nice range on it and the speakers are really good.
The microphone is ok at first it sounded loud but it was just the good speakers.
The mouse is good but goes through AAAs fast and it needs to have the option for the computer to turn it off to save power off.
The mouse saves power by going into sleep mode which can't be turned off but is much better then power saving mode and sometimes requires to unplug the dongle and plug it back in so it will work.
The mouse pad is the first medium size I have ever had it is a lot bigger than the small size sold at officemax/officedepot.
The mouse pad is good a basic model.
For the price it is good if you want to replace all 3 at the same time I got mine on sale for a great price for $129 + tax.

So just bought this from Best buy for $129 on sale. For this price you get this awesome headset that works wireless with pretty much ANYTHING with USB Type C including STADIA CONTROLLER.! WHAT??
Yes sound is great and extremely comfortable.
You also get a great wired keyboard. Mechanical but quieter switches.
You get a mouse too that is wireless with their amazing mouse pad.
For the price you cant beat this at all. This is a huge value and I highly recommend you go to best buy ASAP and get one of these

Everything in the bundle worked perfectly, the microphone is better than expected and the keyboard is everything I would need. The only issue is the mouse but it's more to be with how it uses triple A batteries instead of the bigger double A batteries.

Steelseries makes some of the best quality and at the price point of this you are basically paying for the headset, and mouse, and get a $50 keyboard for free

I was searching for accessories for my new gaming laptop. I was buying each item indivisually until i ran into the four piece bundle. The price was right what can i say. I connected the keyboard and mouse with the mousepad to my new laptop and it runs and performs beautiful. The headset I gave to my Daughter for her nintendo switch and she is havening tons of fun with it. Good product bundle for gaming it really is.

My son loves this. He used to replace the keyboard on the laptop. Once he connects, he pushes the laptop to the side of this and uses this wireless laptop.

Bought it on sale for 129, great value for the money, although you might want to order a different set of earcups for the headphones as they are a bit thin.

The keyboard and mouse are amazing and I hear the headphones are too. The only problem is the headphones are for pc, ps4, switch, or android, NOT Xbox. I was completely unaware of this from the best buy description. What a disappointment. I think I have to return it. So sad. :(.

I’m very pleased with this purchase. I never thought about wireless accessories because I didn’t want to be bothered to charge them. However, these changed my opinion. Everything is so comfortable to use, even the keyboard! The headphones do make a weird popping noise once and a while but it could just be the set I got. Either way, I’m extremely happy to have this bundle.

SteelSeries: The keyboard is great! It has multi color lit keys. Average length w/ the accessible numbers on the side. Smooth functional key strokes w/ loud echos. The headphones are loud and clear w/Adjustable volume. Downfall on the head phones, they do not stay charged long. Approximately 3-4 hours then you will have to recharge. They are wireless. And the mouse is basic. Nothing fancy.

This is my first time buying a steel series bundle for pc, and I just built my first gaming pc. I saw this and I said “ooo this looks cool” so I went ahead and bought it. Everything was great and had fun using it, but there were some problems with it. First is the mouse. The mouse’s battery life is horrible. I put in some energizer and duracell batteries and the mouse kept dying around 5-6 hours after use. The keyboard isnt too bad. Its silent and pretty good, but since I play shooter games, I always have to leave my finger on a button. Sometimes, it wouldnt pick up, so I would have to press it again to keep it going, but overall keyboard is ok. Lastly, the headset is eh. I like that it is wireless but since I wear glasses, it gets uncomfortable for a long time. The mic is ok. It makes a bit of a hissing noise, but it is barely noticed. This set is not too bad, but they can do better.

I bought this bundle when it was on sale for $130. I primarily wanted the wireless headset, but figured I might as well get the bundle for that price. I love the headset and the sound in it is much better than what I had been using. I originally had the USB C receiver plugged into the back of my PC and was having some connection issues if I wasn't right at my PC. I switched the placement of the receiver to the front of my PC and now can get a pretty solid connection throughout my whole apartment. I ended up switching to the keyboard in this bundle due to its light, compact design and mechanic-like keys. They're not as responsive as higher end keyboards, but for the price, I'd say they're great. I can't say much about the mouse as I don't plan on using it. All in all, great value bundle.

Great value for all the peripherals in one bundle. They all are on the lower end of the SteelSeries collections, still great products for the beginner to intemediarte gamer. Setup was easy except for not having a USB-c hookup. A simple USB converter did the trick
