fires headphones in decades
First headphones in decades and i found them comfortable to wear and clear sound. im not a gamer or an audiophile, but for basic usage i do enjoy using them.
The charge lasts for ages, well at least for my usage.
i bought a second pair for my son for gaming and he loves them as they are wireless he has more freedom to move around.
Purchased these on a black friday deal, so it was managble to buy them and im not dissapointed with the quality or the amount of additional cables should i need them
Good value if discounted
Purchased at 99, at this price-point they offer an outstanding value. Good sound quality, microphone is way better than average (people can hear you quite well, filters background noise). The bluetooth feature that allows you to pair it to another device is great and works effortlessly. You can pair it to your phone and listening to other stuff (music, videos, calls) while playing. Perfect if you play with friends across other platforms (as you can use the bluetooth feature to chat on discord, other party chats, etc).
Comfy, sounds great, and compatible with multiple platforms
I picked this one over the 7p+ as it is compatible with PS5, Xbox, and PC. There is a switch on the wireless adaptor to switch from PS5/PC to Xbox (I believe Xbox uses a proprietary system). Having owned the 7p before, the 7X+ is just as comfortable and now charges via USB-C. Battery life is decent lasting several hours before requiring another charge.
Overall, a great option over the official Headsets, especially if you own multiple consoles.
Really good for gaming
I been using for about a year now and i wont ever go back. you need to put on charge every night to make sure you can game entire day after but thats the only downside. there is 0 delay for audio to reach you unlike bluetooth. headset is also very easy to set up. its pretty much plug and play
Highly recommend Steel Series whether that be the arctis 7 or no
If you’re looking for a comfortable and great sounding headset that has a great battery life also then look no further than Steel Series. I couldn’t recommend Steel Series more if I tried they’re the best gaming headset I’ve used and highly recommend them, I’ve often been asked my my friends on PS what headset I was using as the mic quality sounds great so I was told.
Not really for playstatio
To have a fully adjustable headset you need to download the steel series engine – most features are not supported on mac IOS. The headset comes with sidetone set to low as standard and the only way to adjust this is to both update the software and download the engine. Not plug and play but manageable.
Decent headset, one problem…
Headset is decent quality, sound and material. Only downside is the ear cups are abit shallow so can cause pain on your ear after a bit, helps with a hood on but not ideal, saying that you can position them to feel more comfortable.
It's a good heatset, but not quite good enough for me
Looks fantastic with great styling. The headset is quite lightweight and has fits quite lightly around your head without any pressure. As someone with large ears the cups fit over them and the entire fit is really comfortable. This would definitely be comfortable for very long play sessions.
Every time I put the headset on the ear pads make a rustling sound against my head which is quite annoying. It eventually settles down but it doesn’t go away entirely as you inevitably move around, but as you game you stop noticing to an extent. The pads aren’t a faux leather so it looks like the certain type of fabric it to be blame. You could replace them but that’s another 20…
The sounds quality was okay but for me I found it had a sort of tinny effect which really grated at me. No matter which EQ presets I tried it didn’t really seem to change this. Oh and the EQ presets ….. the names make no sense and there’s no explaination for them, you’ll want to check reddit/yt. Also, I found this headset doesn’t have very much bass.
I never got to really put it through its paces but the above issues were enough for me to want to return it, opting for the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 Max, which I’m very happy with so far.
Fantastic multi platform headse
The SteelSeries 7X+ is a versatile gaming headset that I’ve been using on both my PS5 and Xbox Series S, and it has been an excellent choice. The audio quality is impressive, with clear and immersive sound on both consoles. The comfort and build quality are top-notch, allowing for long gaming sessions without discomfort. The dual wireless connectivity is a huge plus, making it easy to switch between the two consoles. Overall, the SteelSeries 7X+ is a great headset for multi-platform gamers, offering exceptional performance and flexibility.
Pros: Best mic (detachable boom mic) for a wired earbuds, comparable to good quality headphones. The in-line mic is of standard quality, a little worse than the wired apple earbuds.
Sound quality is decent, similar to the wired apple earbuds. With very short delay as this was designed with gaming in mind.
Cons: The over ear hook doesn’t feel comfortable on me, perhaps due to my small ears. It is not pillable enough to fit snugly. It also interferes with my glasses’ legs.
It is less protable than regular earbuds as the semi-rigid hook takes up more space.
Others have complained the boom mic is loose but I haven’t noticed such problem yet.
pleasantly surprised by these, they are light, comfortable and have a very good battery life. The sound has a lot more “treble” than i am used to (coming from razer krakens) so after a bit of EQ faffing with the Sonar software has made it better to listen to, the mic is serviceable but i use a Rode mic so dont really have the use of them i just wanted a decent wireless headset, i did get them on offer for 125 and feel like they are worth that, full price? not so much, would recommend if you are looking for a good wireless headset with decent battery life and half decent sound
Brilliant! Look no further, these are perfection for Gaming & Listening to Audio
I Bought these, after a lot of indecision & procrastination, over the newer model as the reviews for those were a bit “meh”, to free me from the tangle of cable, and to enable fairly swift change from PS5 to PC.
Over what I was using (Hyper X, these were great too), the sound quality is like listening to speakers instead of headphones – by this I mean there is depth (at least while using the Steel Series Sonar App, haven’t tried on PC without).
3D Audio is great on PS5 (haven’t tried on PC yet), only tiny downside there is you’ll need to plug in the included transmitter/receiver dongle, which is hardly a problem. I was a bit dubious, although even the PS5 set up app is pretty clear as to where things are coming from, but in Call of Duty Footsteps, gunfire etc. all seem to be coming from where you’d expect in the 3D environment, rather than just left or right.
Gaming is brilliant, Listening to music just blew me away & prompted me to write this review.
PROs:
Audio Quality, well balanced
7.1 Virtual is awesome
Gaming is great
Music listening is amazing
Sonar App is good,
Head strap adjustment was a doddle
all the controls are sensible size & well positioned
CONs:
not sure if I can connect to iPhone (but don’t really care as I have other devices for that)
a tad expensive, but I don’t mind paying for quality when it delivers.
haven’t come across anything yet that has given cause for concern.
Pros:
The design is very smart; mainly white with a couple of black and blue accents.
The way it sits on the head makes it very comfortable and it can be easily adjusted.
Really good button placements make it fairly quick to get familiar with the headset thus easy to adjust settings without looking.
Audio quality is fantastic: Dialogue being clear, decent audio range, nice bass and 3D audio works very well too (superb for games like CoD).
I got instant compliments when I switched to this headset; my friends said my voice was crisp and easy to understand.
I LOVE the sidetone feature and how easy it is to adjust the sensitivity.
With the battery life lasting around 30 hours, makes this headset very reliable.
Neutral:
Quite an odd shape for the wireless dongle; it’s a bit impractical and I don’t get why they shaped it in such a way.
Cons:
When the dongle is inserted to the PS5, the console automatically thinks a headset is connected even when the headset is not powered on, so you have to manually switch over to TV audio on the PS5 or unplug the dongle.
I wanted a wireless headset because I killed my old headset wire with my desk chair wheels. This appeared a cheap alternative from a reputable brand and it came with a usb a to usb c converter so I could use it on my toaster of a pc. The sound quality is good, better than a cheap no name headset but it does lack a certain clarity and base if you’re into that. But the sound is very clear and bright, good for late night lofi and sims sessions, terrible for punchy gunfire.
Battery life is frankly amazing, I’ve owned the headset two months using it daily and I’ve charged it twice?? I believe they may be using magic.
The sheer amount of dials, buttons and wheels on the headset issss a little annoying, you hit the wrong dial a lot. Also for us smaller headed people, the ear cups are m a s s i v e and after a while the headset can feel quite heavy. That said it’s pretty well made and I’ve yet to encounter any issues that others have spoken off. If you wear glasses though this headset will introduce you to a new level of pain, it presses the arms into what feels like your brain itself
The drivers for this headset do ‘drive’ me mad. The ai surround deadens all sounds and makes the headset a mushy sounding mess. The discord/game function means you will have 5 different audio devices in your sound centre and my PC doesn’t run audio through any of them except the bog standard headphone channel. The ability to tune your mic is good though, especially the preset options which can make you sound like a guy, 10/10 less weird comments when I’m using it.
Tldr: if you need a cheap wireless headset, this is a good option. Unless you have glasses, then don’t bother.
Good headset, but...
Headset is good and comfortable, good sound and all, no issues with it when its working.
The only thing i hate about it, is that when my battery runs out, almost 90% of the time it wont work after, even when connecting it to charging cable, it simply wont start charging, or it will and when i try to turn it on after charging for some time, it will go in random broken mode where the power led isnt on, but the mic mute led will be on and it gets stuck in this. After that i need to spend like 30 minutes fixing it by pressing the factory reset button, but since it wont always work, i need to repeat the process like 10 times until it does. The only thing the customer support were able to help with was “do factory reset” and I’ve opened 2 tickets about the same issue already and after that i just found it pointless. It is really furstrating having to always keep battery in check out of fear that the headset one day wont just turn on and having to remember every time i leave it to turn it off is a drag. Its wireless for a reason and battery running out should break the whole headset. I am wondering if to give 3 or 4 stars just because of this issue i keep encountering.
This issue aside, headset is 5/5 for me (when you get it on sale for at least 120 and under, as earcups are shallow and will need some extra money to buy a replacement, but i already had one so it was no biggie for me), and since this the only minus i have with them is the battery issue, which honestly sometimes just makes me want to throw the headset out of the window and buy something else instead, so I am giving it a 4/5.
Best headphones I’ve bough
These are a massive upgrade to my old razers. They’re comfortable, the battery lasts for ages and they work with everything. They do work with Xbox, just not wireless. They sound is brilliant.
Superior sound for ps5
They’re comfortable and sound incredible through the Ps5. I’ve had all of the Sony headsets and the Steelseries Arctis 9 and this is hands down the best headset I’ve ever owned! Highly recommended!
VERY COMFORTABLE
Best gaming headset i have ever owned and at a fair price – sound quality , build and comfort all brillia
Bought these for my nephew
Bought them as a birthday present for my nephew he’s a hard-core gamer and he absolutely loves them I’m gonna buy some myself they’re that good. Highly recommended buying these 1M%
Comfortable headset and great sound
You can tell the headset is of a good quality. Very comfortable to wear and sound is perfect. Have used with PS5 and PC without any issues. Really easy to set up.
Fantastic Headphones
Cannot say enough about these headphones, well built, sound quality is great both for gaming and listening to music. Really works for hearing all around sound.
Haven’t used mic yet so can’t comment on that. But very happy with purchase so far.
Not bad at all
These headphones are very sturdy and great quality however the sound needs changing through the application because the default is way too much on the bass
Excelle
Great quality when it comes to gaming, has much more dynamics compared to the official PS5 3D audio headset. Good mid range but also a very linear bass delivery. Criticisms would be when turning on the PS5, sometimes the settings via the console is immediately set to the headset audio even if it’s disconnected. Also volume isn’t too loud at times but it’s loud enough to not be an issue. Overall it is probably one of the best products to use with the console. Recommendation for anyone is to not waste money on the Pulse 3D audio but get these headsets instead.
Perfec
Probably one of the best headsets I’ve owned and not too expensive when on offer, I previously had the turtle beach stealth 600 gen 2 and thought it was the best headset until I realised what I was missing out on, if you want a headset with good directional sound go for it, and for those wandering the mic quality is also clear compared to higher priced headsets
A very good headse
I bought these to replace my old Sony gold headset that was getting a bit old and tired.
First of all, the sound quality is excellent at this price point. Sounds a crisp, the 3d audio on ps5 works very well. Next, the battery life is superb. It will last multiple days without needing a charge.
The headset is very comfortable with soft ear cups and a ski band head support. I’ve worn this for many 6hr gaming sessions and get no pain at all on my ears.
The microphone is exceptionally clear. I’ve heard my voice recording compared to my old headset and the difference is night and day. The only slight negative is that if you’re in a loud environment (people talking, TV on etc) the mic picks up a lot of background because its so sensitive. You can balance this out with the software supplied by SteelSeries to lower the mic sensitivity.
Other than that small negative, this is a fantastic headset at a reasonable price that should meet the needs of most ps5 gamers
Crystal clear audio and mic
I would easily recommend this to anyone as it trumps the laptop/pc mic. People have said how clear the sound is. Buy it!
Perfect headphones, let down by software
I absolutely love these headphones.
Pros:
– comfort. I also own a pair of Bose Qc35’s and in terms of comfort these are on another level altogether. The only headphones I’ve found to date that I can wear all day long.
– Connection reliability. No messing about with Bluetooth. You turn them on, they just work. No random disconnects.
– Playback and recording quality is superb.
– Button placement. I love having physical power / play / mute buttons. They are perfectly placed and work really well.
Cons:
– Buggy Software. My only con would be that the software is buggy (on mac anyhow). Running latest firmware and software versions when I click ‘save’, the headphones go crazy and keep stuttering. I have to power cycle them to get things back working. Pretty annoying, but for how often I make any configuration settings I can live with it.
Perfect gaming headse
I use this on PS4. It really is a fantastic headset, comfortable with perfectly good sound. Charges quickly and battery seems to last forever. The volume control is very handy to have.
Voll zufriede
Habe das Headset jetzt ca. ein Monat in Verwendung. Bin sehr zufrieden. Das beste Feature ist der Lautstrkeregler um einzustellen wie laut man sich selbst hrt.
everything good but echo in mic
everything was fine but when mic was docked there is echoing. quite annoying but easy fix when extended.
Besser als gefach
Hatte die Jahre immer ein Astro A50 gehabt, was natrlich vom Klang her usw. Eine 1+ ist.
Muss aber ehrlicher Weise sagen, das Steelseries ist fr den Preis auch eine 1+ .
Komfort / Klang / Verarbeitung sehr gut
Und fr COD Spieler genau das richtige, htte nicht gedacht das man ohne Einstellungen fr das Headset selbst, jeden Schritt hrt.
Klare Kaufempfehlung
sound quality is pretty good, the mic could be better but it works for what it is.
Top Sound beim zocken man hört alles sehr sehr gu
Mir gefllt es sehr sehr gut noch nie so ein gutes Headset gehabt.
Akkulaufzeit ist top
Bass ist top dadurch hrt man alles viel deutlicher
Man hrt nichts mehr von der Auenwelt was auch sehr gut ist um nicht abgelenkt zu werde
