Top Amazon Reviews


  • The best gaming headset I've ever owned
This is going to be a PS5 centric review since I don't use the headset for any other platform. Also, I've only ever owned one other "premium" headset so much of my opinion will be based on my previous experience. The Steel Series Arctis 9 Wireless connect to the PS5 via a usb dongle. The controls are primarily on the right ear cup, with the standard power on, bluetooth button (for pairing or pausing content) and a volume wheel. The mic is retractable and doesn't include a windshield, but I added a spare one I ordered off Amazon and it fit just fine. Right now I'm using the Wicked Cushions cooling gel ear pads as I found the stock pads a bit too thin for my taste and the Wicked Cushions made what was already a really comfortable headset about 10x better. I can wear these for long sessions without any discomfort whatsoever. If I had to do it again, I don't know if I'd buy the cooling gel version as they actually seem to increase the heat on my ears after a half hour. Still very comfortable to wear. Sound Profile This is not a bass heavy headset. If you're looking for a headset that's going to vibrate on your head every time an explosion goes off, this is not for you. Initially, I was unimpressed by the sound. It all seemed rather flat. But after installing the companion software (which is Mac compatible), I played around with the EQ presets (they save to the headset) and found one that really worked for me (it's called Smiley). And while the bass still isn't overwhelming, I do enjoy the more even highs, mids mixed with the bass. In fact, I really prefer the sound of this as opposed to a more bass heavy headset such as the Turtle Beach 700s. And don't get me wrong, the bass is fine and does the job, which is what I want. I'd say this is more of a fine wine that you appreciate for the taste as opposed to a cheap wine that'll get you buzzed. Comfort Again, very very comfortable, but I am using 3rd party ear cushions. The stock ear cushions are fine, but not quite thick enough for my tastes. After upgrading to WC cooling gel cushions, these things are like a cloud on my head. And I have a big head btw and I find the amount of clamp and fit to be just right. The headband uses a ski google strap of sorts to accommodate your head (as opposed to most other headsets that you manually click the headband to expand or retract it) and it took some getting used to, but now I can't imagine going back. I simply put them in the desired position and they stay that way. Durability There's a lot of posts on various forums complaining that the hinges are prone to breaking so while it's only been a week, so far so good. My last headset developed a hairline crack on the hinges that eventually lead to the ear piece detaching from the headband, but I dont' see that being an issue here so long as you remove the headset by the ear cups and not by the hinges. Connectivity This is probably the most impressive function of the headset thus far. The connection is rock solid. I can go to various rooms within 15 feet of my console and it never loses connection. This was such a constant issue with my Penrose that I almost got accostomed to just randomly losing connection, but that doesn't happen with these. Super impressed thus far. Bluetooth Very easy to pair and obviously it's a Bluetooth connection so it's equally stable and consistent. My only complaint is that there's no independent volume knob for the connected bluetooth device, so I've taken to lowering the game's volume in the PS5 UI menu by a few clicks which then allows for me to use the volume knob to get the right levels. You'll have to play around with it a bit to find the right volume level for you, but it's not difficult. Mic Quality The mic is labeled "discord certified," but thus far no one has been wowed by the quality of the mic, but then again is this really important? I feel like so long as people can hear your call outs and understand you, that's good enough. The mic is fine, which is all I really need. Battery They advertise as giving over 20 hours of juice and I've yet to put it to the test. I usually game while listening to a podcast or music over my bluetooth device and I've yet to have any battery issues, although I do charge them when not in use. Complaints Nothing major, just some minor complaints. Again, there's no independent volume wheel for the bluetooth connected device. This would've been great, but simply lowering the overall volume in the settings by a few clicks gave the right mix of blutooth & game volume for me. After you turn the headset off, you still have to go into the PS5 menu to change the sound output to your tv/stereo from the headset. If you don't, you won't get any sound...even if the headset is off. Kinda weird but the pros outweigh this for me. It's a micro usb compatible charge port as opposed to usb c. I just don't get how they decided to go with this when usb c is so superior and prevalent at this point. You have to use the companion software on PC to get access to all the various sound settings, but the settings save to the headset so maybe find someone that owns a pc and use theirs to open up all the options? That aside, I'm super happy with them. 9.5/10. ... show more

  • Nice two-channel headphones
These are pretty decent headphones. I'm no audiophile, but I do game in them and the sound is good enough for me. It's nice that they have both 2.4Ghz and Bluetooth connections, and that you can have both hooked up at the same time, so you could game or listen to videos, while still be connected to your phone for calls or other voice apps. The major downside is that the dongle for the 2.4Ghz has a long (3ft) cord to the USB plug, so if you want to keep your headset playing, you have to keep that dangling dongle plugged in, which is a little annoying for a laptop. That's probably a design limitation, because the dongle is about the size of a double-stuff Oreo, so just plugging it into the side of your computer might have been too cumbersome. So putting a cord on it was probably the right call, but they don't show in the pictures, so I thought it was worth mentioning. There's also this other feature where the headset accepts different channels for "chat" and "game" and there's a blending wheel on the left earpad where you can decide the ratio of what you want to hear more. That's a nice feature, but the tradeoff is that in Windows there's now two different sound outputs to choose from. In fact, when I plugged them in, I got three or four new output options in the Windows Volume Mixer. And Its not clear what the differences are. So there's a bit of confusion, but it wasn't hard to make it work. The ski goggles headband design is really clever and very comfortable. I've only had them for a month or two, and the elastic is starting to sag just a touch. That said, because of the design, it should be super easy to replace with just about any fabric choice you want, so long as you can operate a hot glue gun and some Velcro. ... show more

  • hot garbage
Only real upside is the ability to use Bluetooth, 2.4ghz and aux at the same time + retractable microphone. Unfortunately, The sound is mediocre by default unless you manually mess with the eq settings. The SteelSeries GG app is horrendous and horrible to use. SteelSeries sonar screws with normal operation of windows volume and is finnicky and unreliable even when you actually try to use the hotkeys they want you to use. The headphones disconnect all the time forcing you to unplug the dongle and turn off your headphones just to reconnect, sometimes requiring multiple attempts at unplugging and powering on and off. All the sounds built into the headphones like the "turning on" sound or "turning off" sound all play at extremely loud volumes. They only play for a split second, but they're still loud enough to be really annoying, but the connecting sound that will constantly keep trying to play repeatedly whenever you get too far away from the dongle is actually painful and probably damaging to listen to. The Bluetooth doesn't always automatically turn on even when the setting for it is enabled. The headphones will sometimes connect but not have audio actually work through the 2.4ghz connection forcing a reboot of the headphones and unplug of the dongle to work again. The battery life is dramatically lower than advertised when using 2.4ghz + Bluetooth at the same time, and even still when using only one at a time. The aux input volume is strangely inversely connected to main volume knob which causes it to only run at half volume when volume is at the normal 100% setting and suddenly shooting up to double volume if you try to lower the volume knob. and the dongle is connected to an inconveniently long and entirely unnecessary cable that just adds a lot of clutter and is generally just a mild inconvenience to the use of these headphones. To top it all off my headphones don't even work without being plugged into power anymore, so you can't even really call these wireless at this point, and now they keep randomly disconnecting every 5-30 minutes. I've only even had these for about 9 months. I can't believe someone actually decided to put out such an unreliable and annoying pair of headphones out to market at almost $200 usd at full price. I got these at a steep discount and I still feel like I wasted money. If you want headphones with a microphone, just get something else, and outside of the niche use of having 3 audio inputs at once, there's no real reason to get these when they are so inconvenient to use. There are surely other headphones that could work better, probably for cheaper even. ... show more
