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!

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 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...

Thank you, after watching this I have bought the Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro wired as a replacement for my Razer Kraken Tournament headset. I don't mind wires!

The difference in that mic switch (when going back to the artis nova pro) was insane, great work done by SteelSeries

It sounds compressed still while wireless. No comparison to when it is wired. It's unfortunate these companies do not unlock the full potential of the wireless microphones because that is what gamer's want these days.

True I noticed this since I got mine a couple days ago. Wireless is also so much more convenient that sometimes I just don’t care about quality and just go for convenience

@@NotMagnuss Definitely. But it can absolutely be done because the HS80 is doing it at the $150 price point. Kind of amazing these headsets double the price have not caught on. I'm waiting for Corsair's next drop because they are the only ones that have figured this out.

Absolutey fantastic video. Been using my nova pro wireless' for nearly three years now. Not a single issue. Steelseries GG in all is a fantastic software, quality build both on the headset and dac, and to be honest, id pay the price alone for the hot swappable battery, favourite feature of any headset ever

The whole point is that it has 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth. Gaming headsets without Bluetooth are completely useless for smartphones and regular wireless headphones have way too high latency for gaming. Having both is great and being able to listen to them simultaneously is awesome.

Great video my man! I had these and returned them because they have a mic issue on xbox. I re purchased them because they sound way way better than my astro a50s. Steelseries did tell me they are aware of the mic issue and they are going to fix it in a upcoming firmware update. I didn't know they planned on bringing sonar to console that makes me even more excited for this headset!

Brian, great review. As someone who owned the wireless H and then the wireless 800s after, I wanted to try these out. My biggest decision for getting these new ones vs another brand is the swappable batteries. That makes these permanently wireless as you never have to plug in the cable to recharge the headset. Thanks again. Love watching your videos.
@Reaktion280z

Same reason I have 800s and soon to be the Novas. It's honestly stupid that literally no one else offers that as a feature on wireless headsets. They must hate money or something haha.
@goofsaddggkle7351

I still have the 800’s. Volume wheel doesnt work and headband just doesnt feel real tight anymore. BB has these on sale right now - might take the plunge. Also - noise canceling seems like a great way to increase game immersion.

Great review. Espechially for someone who regularly has problems with their head size when it comes to headphones. My only critique would be to call this microphone "great". In comparison to others, yes, but sadly basically all wireless headphone mics sound crappy. I absolutely despaired searching for a good microphone solution for me but recently settled on the wireless DJI Mic which is an absolute game changer for me (and everyone who has to listen to me).

I went with the wired Razer Thingumy V2 which is a discreet 7.1 headset with all the drivers. I drive it with RCA outputs on a connected 2nd hand AVR, so I can get full Dolby Atmos / DTSX if needed, but most games have positional audio in PCM, so don't sweat it if you're not getting Dolby, it's not needed. People worry about these headsets not performing properly (complaints about bass response, and distortion), you just need to: - Ensure the centre/sub are connected properly - Take time to set them up with the AVR settings This headset is *so* good, and so cheap with relation to other taking headsets which aren't even proper surround ... and believe me ... when you get it right the difference between virtual and*actual* is night and day. I don't use the mic, though, I use a Sony laptop/lavelier plugged into my old USB sound card.
