Very please with my new headset.
Can believe how good the battery is and how easy it connects and pairs with everything. Very light weight and comfortable. Surprisingly good microphone. I would definitely recommend steel series to anyone I know looking for a new headset.

Great product
Works perfectly + cross platforms. Super easy to set up great sound and mic quality. Only reason it’s 4 stars not 5 is for me they could use a little better padding ears can get a little sore after a while.

Broke within one week
Really disappointed. I wanted this headset to be great. Unfortunately it was so poor. There was clearly a manufacturing issue with my headset. The retractable mouth piece was broke from day one. The runner cover was not attached to the metal coil underneath and the mouthpiece didnt actually work ie the microphone. Really poor. I have had to send back for a refund.

Sleek and versatile
I bought this about a month ago and the Barrett life has been highly impressive as well as the versatility offered by the sonar app that lets you have different sound tunes for each app. The only issues I have encountered are with the sonar software as sometimes it has problems that go away when I reset the app but nothing major

Great headset
I bought the Steelseries arctis nova 5x about 3 weeks ago, and are very pleased with it. It has great sound, and love that it has all these presets sound options in the companion app. There is however, sometimes issues with connecting to the Xbox, for some reason

Great and comfortable headset that has moods
I purchased it for Xbox Console and headset itself is a very quality headset. It is comfortrable, looks nice, have nice sound however its main functionality is moody and I mean Xbox compatibility. Sometimes it works, sometimes its not. I expected it to be plug-and-play and instead I need to restart it few times to hear a sound via them. I couldn't make mic to work with Xbox. Updating firmware didn't help, troubleshooting with internet also didn't help. If that aspect was fixed that would be an increadible 5/5 headset.

Great features
Can connect to my Xbox and phone at the same time, but can only use one at a time and have a switch button on the headset so that’s fine. Sound quality isn’t top notch but good enough and has slight bass but isn’t strong, it’s loud enough. Mic quality is quite good and very clear. Controls on the headset is great with mute button, switch button, volume slider, slider for adjusting sound between game volume and party chat volume, power button. No leather so there won’t be any peeling. Battery is great lasts few days and charges quickly on fast charge. Has Bluetooth as well as being able to connect to Xbox.

Good overall quality
Been using this headset for a while and all I can say is that it just delivers, whatever the context. Although this is not a device for audiophiles, the audio coming from earphones is good and free from distortion so you can use it for casual music listening without losing too much. Special mention for the mic quality which is absolutely terrific, way above the average mics in this price range, and my voice always sounds crystal clear. Also sidetone is clear and with a decent volume. Battery life is not a concern as it lasts long and charges in few hours, to have it ready whenever I need it. About the app all I can say is that it’s a game-changer but you have to try it yourself to fully understand. At this price point this headset is just a must have.

Great sound, comfort with connectivity issues
I have only ever used HyperX models and after my last ones finally snapped, I decided to try SteelSeries. The headphones themselves feel great. The build quality is very solid, the ear pads are comfortable. Battery life seems to be good, although I wish there was a better battery indicator, perhaps on the headset itself. Via the console, it shows low battery 100% of the time, no matter the charge. So it is tough to keep track of when I actually need to charge them. The sound is impressive. It does seem to have great depth and even the directional sound seems very good. My only true complaint is the connectivity issues. Once every 3rd or 4th session, they won't connect to the dongle and I have to unplug it, restart the console, and plug the dongle back in. It seems like minor inconvenience, but also when we are talking wireless headsets, connectivity is a major deal.

Impressed
Good product. First of all – i like the design and how they feels on my head. Also, price is very competetive. The only thing ill ask to fix – usb type c dongle sometimes lags, and i need to re-stick it in my PC. With or without Steelseries Sonar app. Weird, but its ok

Quality brand strikes again
Had the Arctics Pros for the last 5 years and the only reason I got rid of them were the ear pieces falling apart. Now have the Nova 5x’s wireless and they are just as good if not better. Great sound quality, light weight, and cool features. SteelSeries has a customer for life in me.

Amazing quality great price.
I had an old headset of mine break and a friend reccomended me this headset. I did some research watching reviews and videos, they all had amazing things to say about it. After having the Arctis Nova 5 headset for about a month now I can say all those reviews were correct, Amazing battery life, its comfortable, the sound and voice quality are a massive step up. Very happy with my purchase
