I have watched SO many reviews on this headset. You are the ONLY one to bring up the button press on the volume wheel to adjust game vs chat audio, which is a huge feature for me that I assumed could only be adjusted via the DAC. This will play a huge part in whether or not I buy the headset, and I thank you!

Seeing how this mic fares in comparison to the other flagships is truly important for me when making a buying decision, so seeing that in this video was huuuuge. Hoping to see this trend continue with mice and keyboards and other peripherals when applicable, I feel like something like that answers the question that a lot of people Google to death when buying a new product.

Whoever is sniping on COD look alike they have aimbot, I've seen too many people use this ,that's how I know but I just bought the 2024 version of arctis nova pro and they are out of this world .by far the best headset I've have used, you won't have any problems with audio as it goes so loud and if your playing call of duty you won't even need it on a ten, if you have a quiet game you probably still don't need a ten which is awesome if you habe to adjust in long run .sound is incredible..alot of people had trouble hooking it up ,I did as well but I figured it out within a few hours..put it this way it's right in plain sight..I highly recommend these headsets and it's worth $350... order it at Walmart not at a3rd party seller .the packaging is awesome..I love the smell of new stuff and you can tell it wasn't touched....so many options in this device definitely 10/10 headset..if anyone is taking to you in the room whike thesebare on you wont be able to hear them snd it does cancel out a decent amount of noise even if it didn't the volume is insane so that's not a problem .they fit very snug and has like 3 settings for any size head.....I did my research on what are the best headsets of 2024 and this was on top of the list and they were accurate.. definitely #1..if you are looking for the best I would get this one... no doubt

Just picked these up yesterday. I can honestly say these are the best wireless headphones I have had and arguably one of the best headphones overall that I have had - and this includes a bunch of budget-audiophile headsets. The sound is excellent particularly with Sonar enabled while listening to music. I'm hearing a level of clarity I have never heard in a wireless headset - not even my Air Pod Max. Fortunately, the driver portion in the middle is not making contact with my ears and the earcup is creating a nice seal around my earcups so they are resting in their comfortably. I still need a few days to see how well the battery holds up, but I love the idea of not needing to plug the headset in to charge it directly because of the swappable battery system (this is my first time experiencing this type of system because I never had the money to afford the previous version). This has me more curious about checking about the Arena 7 because I do generally prefer bookshelf speakers over wearing headphones all day. In either event, these headphones are so good that I went ahead and disconnected my Schiit Stack and put that back in the closest for another day. I had the confidence to make the purchase largely because of this review.

Great review BST. When you asked about Sonor on console, did you mean being able to set the Sonar EQ onto the headset or did you mean Steelseries will actually make the Sonar app available on consoles? Any ETA on that feature? It seems kind of gimped to not have Sonar available on console to launch.

Thanks for the video! I too used the prior version of the Arctis Pro Wireless and loved it for many reasons, but the comfort was not there for me and sadly I just had to replace it. At the time I vowed that if they created one that was more comfortable, I would buy it. Unfortunately, since that time I have been spoiled by my PC38X open-back headset and I don't think I could go back to a closed-back for gaming now. I wish SteelSeries would somehow make a version of this that was open-back. If they did, I think I might be the first one to order it. My two favorite features of this headset is 1) the wireless ability (of course) and 2) that I could stay connected to my mobile phone while gaming. This was important to me because I would sometimes get important calls during a gaming session which I could easily answer and deal with without any major interruptions to the game.

I always thought that this could be a decent pick for someone that wants a good headset that works good for gaming and for music consumption. They are basically priced at the same point as a Sony xm4 but are more tuned towards gaming. Also as an Xbox player not a lot of the other examples work fully with Xbox so I see this as a good deal specially if I get them later in a discount.

I went from the Logitech Pro X Wireless headset to the Sennheiser PC38X. Personally I love the sound quality of them, However, losing the wireless capability, and an issue where I have trouble hearing things directly in front of me has left me a tiny bit soured on them. Because of that issue, and the fact that wireless is SO SO SO convenient, it's really making me want to pull the trigger on these. All of the previous wireless flagships that have come out all seem to have some sort of major shortcoming that always feels like a dealbreaker. I have no problem paying up if the quality of the product is good. Thanks for the video, really helpful input!

I had the old Arctis Pro Wireless and I loved the wireless part and the swappable batteries. It made things really convenient. However there was a few things that bothered me. First it was the ridiculously short headband. I've never really considered myself as having a big head but obviously I do. Glad to hear they've fixed that. Secondly it was the very noticeable white noise that was constant. It could be somewhat lowered if you turned off the volume boost in the software. But then you pretty much had to keep them at max volume to get descent volume. Having sidetone activated made the white noise slightly more pronounced. I've seen a lot of people having this problem with the old Arctis Pro. Did you notice any of this in your old pair? And if so is it better in the new ones? I appreciate the review, but not sure if I dare to take the leap on wireless gaming audio again after the last pair.

I would think $50 is a great deal for the base station over the Sony H9. I wonder why headset makers don't just let the mic get it's own wireless connection. That should eliminate any bandwidth problem. I guess the market for that is just too niche and anyone who cares about mic quality is already using an external wired mic anyways. But a noise floor (i.e. the perpetual hiss when the unit is turned on) is a big no-no for me. My Arctis Pro Wireless had a very audible noise floor that I can hear even through the quieter parts of songs, so I'm very reluctant to ever consider SteelSeries headsets ever again. But their feature sets are right in the center of my strike zone. Right now I'm using my AirPods Max for ANC gaming, wired to my ZEN DAC. I'm probably going to end up getting the Sony H9 and just ignore its mic, because I'm afraid of getting audible noise floor on the Nova Pro Wireless...

Sometimes I subscribe to so many Tech Reviewers on RU-vid, some get lost in the shuffle. Optimum’s Wooting keyboard review refreshed my memory of your channel. I love your Wooting and this Steelseries reviews. Super clean production. I’m a scroll thru some other vids. Cheers

I am no expert but corsair wireless mics still sounds the best for me, especially the corsair hs80 wireless mic sounds very good. I cant use this amount of feature (it's confusing to me), but i cant accept this price tag is correct. All the new Steelseries product seems to be overpriced to me nowadays.

Great review mate, I really enjoy your content and allows audiophile wannabes like myself to understand more about sound. I have arctis pro wireless right now but I'm worried the hinges are ready to let go. I don't need wireless or a mic what should I get next?

Holy hell, the wireless vs wired microphone tests are insane. I thought you went back to your usual recording mic before I read the screen I really gotta look into getting a good wired mic haha, the incredible change a wired connection can make is well worth the slight inconvenience

Also. Nice to see you highlight my favorite festure of Steelseries: the ability to game while also listening to stuff on your phone. It’s kind of a must for Switch gamers that is how you would voice chat or listen or any sort of music while you are playing.

Really great review, and certainly making this headset worth considering with Black Friday sales around the corner. I'm specifically interested about how it interacts with a Go XLR, will a video be made or any comment made that we should be aware of? There are few options for wireless headsets which will connect with a Go XLR for listening back to your mic audio as you speak

I've had my arctis pro wireless since the start of 2022 but last week one of the hinges on the earphone snapped making it completely useless, I talked to steelseries support and they said they're going to be retiring the Arctis Pro Wireless as its reached its "end of life" so looking at the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless before I have to send the Arctis Pro wireless to them for an exchange was a BIG help, thank you very much for this video!

Much appreciated. I'm a developer and wear my headphones 8+ hrs/day. My Sony wh-1000xm3's are getting a bit long in the tooth and are being held together with duct tape. I've been curious about high-end gaming headsets and this was a great comparison with a good range of options price-wise!. Much appreciated!

I think I'm gonna pick these up. I love the arctis pro wireless. After my first pair broke apart at the earcup, I was out of warranty by about three months. I messaged steelseries anyway, and they sent me a replacement set. They just had me pull the other earcup out and send them a pic. Didn't even make me send it in. Customer for life.

This is the video I was waiting for! While I've really gotten into gaming with IEM's, I've been super curious about this headset and I've been thinking about picking it up. The convenience of wireless is super appealing after using the short cables of IEM's for a while now. I really appreciate your take on these!

Great job on the video! I am curious. If the the fake leather earcups are required for noise cancelling. How was apple able to do it on the airpods max? I'm not an apple fan, but I'd love to see earcups like theirs on other noise cancelling headphones. I agree that the fake leather gets hot and sweaty way too fast.

Thanks for not rushing the details here. I ended up buying one just because I can run Bluetooth off my tablet ( discord, chat, whatever ) while gaming on my PC. I really didn't want to pay premium but I just don't think I would be happy with anything else right now. Can't wait for it to arrive.
