Steel Series Arctis Nova 7X
Bought to replace a Turtle Beach headset that my brother had from Xbox One and had given to me.Set up:The Nova 7X headset was easy to set up; simply adjusted the headstrap where I needed it, plugged the dongle into my Series X with the extension cable provided, and turned on the headset. Just make sure that the toggle on the dongle is set to Xbox for Xbox and USB for everything else (PC, PS5, Switch, etc.) The headset sounds pretty good out of the box, however, seem to be what I would call “tingy” without making adjustments on PC. After I connected to PC, I set up the headset using Sonar on the Steel Series software that’s free to download from their site, but I don’t think that translated to the xbox. What did, however, was the EQ settings because I set it to Bass Boost and it seems to have gotten rid of the “tingy” sound I was experiencing previously.Battery life:The battery life is phenomenal. I would say getting 38 hours or more is absolutely possible. I have had the headset for over a week now and charged it for the first time last night and it only seemed to take a couple hours to get to full charge. I was wearing the headset throughout the week watching youtube, playing games, etc. trying to get it to die. May vary from person to person as I typically work 9-10 hour days and worked 4 days last week while obviously not using the headset.Microphone:It’s a mic. My brother says that he can hear me more clearly than when I wore my previous headset, but it is a Steel Series mic, so take that with a grain of salt.Features:The volume and chat mixer rollers (volume on left ear, chat mixer on right) are recessed which is great for sitting back in a recliner or on a couch and not having to worry about volume getting messed with by previously mentioned furniture (which was a problem for me with the Turtle Beach headset that I upgraded from.) Power, Bluetooth, and Mute buttons respond well and do exactly as they are meant to. Mic retracts into the left ear which is great when you want to watch something and not have a mic in your face. The headstrap and ear cushions have been great in my experience. I wear glasses and the headset feels very comfortable despite this. (In contrast, the Turtle Beach headset kind of dug into and rubbed the top of my head during extended gaming sessions. I also felt the part of my glasses just above my ear getting pushed into my ear by same headset.)Customization:I like that the headstrap, ear cushions, and magnetic side plates can be swapped out. Not only for the customization of it, but also the longevity of being able to swap the headstrap and ear cushions in the event of wear and tear.Weight:Comparable with the Turtle Beach headset, but I’d say the Nova 7Xs are a bit lighter.Conclusion:I am really enjoying the Nova 7X headset so far and I would definitely say it’s an excellent choice for a headset, especially at $150 USD. Sound quality, battery life, and comfortability seemed to definitely be in mind when they designed this headset. It certainly feels like a lot of thought was put into this headset by Steel Series. Good job, Steel Series. I look forward to buying more of your products in the future, especially if this much thought of the user’s experience is put into them. 10/10. Amazing headset. Amazing experience.

I think it’s worth it
So I’ve had this for about a month now and I love it, no complaints whatsoever. It’s super comfy on the head and I have a big head lol. I love that I can be connected to my phone and my xbox at the same time. I play music on my phone while playing games, so no need to have Spotify open on Xbox. The microphone is retractable and flexible which is a huge plus. The dedicated mute button is great to have especially when I am not wanting to talk, either on my phone or playing games. The sound is amazing and the bass kicks when watching streaming or playing a campaign. The range on these good, I can be in the back yard and still hear my game on in my room on the other side of the house. Like the two wheel buttons on both sides, one for chat mixer and the other is the volume button. The ONLY thing I thought that was weird is the adapter isn’t a USB but a an adapter that plugs into a converter that’s a USB wire lol. But it comes with it, I just don’t understand why it couldn’t have just been an adapter plug lol no biggie though. Recommend 10/10

Son audífonos de buena calidad de sonido, escuchas bien los paso y el micrófono igual es bueno, no soy de los que suda mucho los ocupo 3 horas al día y no molestan, aun que el precio no es tan barato valen la pena como unos de gama alta

Bought this for my PC and they compliment my Xbox too whenever I use it.Love the wireless features and long battery life.But… they turned off (but actually, remove) the one thing that made their SteelSeries GG app really good. The cloud sync function.tl;dr headphones good. software bad cos of the removal of cloud sync.
