SteelSeries New Arctis Nova 3 Multi-Platform Gaming Headset – Signature Arctis Sound – ClearCast Gen 2 Mic – PC, PS5/PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, Mobile,Black

Super customisable and comfortable
I opted to get wired headphones instead of wireless, so while these have no bluetooth capabilities they are still super nice headphones (that come in really nice packaging) and don’t need to be charged.They’ve held up really well for as long as I’ve had them and are comfortable enough to wear for long periods of time, though I’ve occasionally experienced discomfort wearing them in combination with glasses or piercings.Friends say the microphone quality is clear and audible, but there has been an issue with the microphone not picking up the first word or so of a sentence. A button on the headphones allows the microphone to be muted which is then indicated by a red light at the end, which is super nice. The microphone being able to be extended and stored back in the headphones is incredibly useful as it makes it discreet and keeps it protected when not being used.The audio is clear and crisp, and having the ability to change the volume from the headphones itself makes them incredibly versatile so they can be used in combination with a number of devices from a console or laptop to a phone, made easier by the two different cables sent.The only downfall of a phone is it doesn’t provide the customisability of the audio mixer and colour display. The SteelSeries app has some serious customisability, though, and it is super cool to mess around and make different sets.I got the headphones while they were on sale, and I was initially skeptical, but I’m really glad I got them and they were worth the money. So much so that if I plan on getting a wireless pair in the future, I’ll stick with SteelSeries.

Between the Razer Kraken and Arctis Nova, Arctis is by far the superior option
Whether by accident or design all my peripherals to date have been Razer, this includes the Razer Kraken Tournament Edition Headset, it was a good headset with excellent sound and build quality, it lasted me for years despite being dropped, stepped on, twisted and bent, the mic finally gave out after i accidentally dropped it in a bucket of water and even then every other aspect of the headset worked.If this sounds like a ringing endorsement of the Razer, it is, so much so i was intending to just buy the exact same headset to replace it. But instead i took a chance with the Steel Series Arctis Nova 3, it was slightly cheaper than the Kraken at the time and in my honest opinion it is better in every way, the sound clarity for the cost is appreciably better than the Kraken and the Mic comes with noise cancelling that i actually use because it works and isn’t a pointless gimmick.But, where it truly shines over the Kraken is the absolutely better software if you’ve owned a Razer Headset you will agree that it can be a pain sometimes to get the software to function properly, and sometimes it just stops working randomly, not to mention there was an entire period of time where the THX feature of the Kraken {yes the biggest selling point of the headset} literally stopped working for months after a Razer software update, no such issue with Steel Series’ Sonar.Another major complaint i had with the Razer is the control box for the THX spatial audio and other controls its an annoying dangling hinderance, it comes with sticky tape but that then limits how far away from your device you can take it, it’s by far the worst aspect of the Razer Kraken, all the controls for the Arctis Nova are flush with the headset and easily identifiable and useable without actually needing to see them.Another problem with the Razer Kraken was the design of the ear muffs made my face a sticky sweaty mess, this made it difficult to wear for extended period in a non-air conditioned room, the Arctis Nova 3 is by far more comfortable and the weight of the headset is noticeably lighter than the Kraken.All in all if you’re looking for a good sub 100$ dollar headset and you inevitably come up with a head to head between this and the Razer Kraken, this one is better by far.

Prompt delivery and product as described.Great for the kids to play for playstation 5.

Headset muito bom, qualidade de graves, bass, som excelentes, o microfone é claro e de qualidade, a voz sai muito bem, porém, sendo sincero e honesto o ponto negativo não é o headset em si, e sim o software da Steelseries, o GG, por mais que tenha várias opções de configurações e também o sonar seja algo interessante com os pre-sets de microfone / fone de ouvido, depois de 3 dias meu microfone simplesmente parou de funcionar se o sonar estivesse ativo, tentei várias configurações do mesmo para fazer com que o microfone funcionasse novamente, e nada, pensei inclusive que era algum problema do headset em si, então desinstalei o GG e testei, o microfone / fone funcionava normalmente, porém num volume bem baixo, reinstalei o GG e agora sim tudo começou a funcionar normalmente de novo. Depois de 2 semanas após esse evento, o headset continua funcionando sem problemas. Porém, se fosse algum usuário leigo, provavelmente teria retornado o produto quando o software da GG resolveu bugar o microfone do headset.Sobre as caracteristicas físicas do headset, é muito bem construido e confortavel, para mim um diferencial também é o fato de que o cabo não vem grudado no headset, ele é separado, então caso o cabo de algum problema ou quebre (o que aconteceu com meu headset antigo da corsair que o cabo literalmente se desfez), você pode arrumar outro cabo e o continuar a utilizar o headset.O RGB é simples mas bonito, que é o que você espera de um headset, não precisa ser uma arvore de natal para ser bonito e elegante.Fico feliz de ter feito a compra, pois adorei o produto, e mais feliz ainda de não ter tido mais nenhum problema após a reinstalação do software da Steelseries.
