Review: Unmatched Comfort, Incredible Sound – A True Top-Tier Headset - Why did you choose this product over others?: After officially play-testing the Arctis Nova Pro for over 300 hours, I can confidently say this is one of the best headsets I’ve ever used. The comfort is absolutely unmatched—thanks to the over-ear design and soft cushioning, I can wear them for long gaming sessions without any soreness or discomfort. Whether it’s a quick 30-minute play or an all-night session, these headphones stay comfortable throughout. One standout feature is the removable dual-battery system. It’s brilliantly designed—while you’re using one battery, the other charges in the base station. I’ve never run out of power mid-game, which is a huge bonus. The GG Control Panel app is another excellent addition. It integrates seamlessly with your PC and offers a wide range of sound presets tailored for different games and activities. Whether you’re trying to pick up footsteps in Call of Duty or blasting some drum and bass to unwind, this headset handles it all effortlessly. The audio versatility is incredible. Build quality is solid and premium—everything feels robust and well-engineered. I was so impressed, I even bought another set for a family member. One small tip: when powering them on for the first time, be aware of the volume restriction setting (required by EU regulations). If left enabled, it might limit your ability to fully enjoy some of the more powerful sound presets. I’m not advising whether to enable or disable it—that choice is entirely yours—but just offering honest feedback based on my experience. Overall, highly recommended. If you’re serious about sound quality, comfort, and reliability, the Arctis Nova Pro is absolutely worth it. Design: The build quality is unmatched
Review: Arctis Nova Elite - the new benchmark! - It would be appropriate to address the price before I give my thoughts on the headset. £599 is quite ridiculous for a gaming headset. That's not to suggest what is on offer isn't a quality product & you kinda feel you're getting your money's worth after using it. But the sticker shock is real, especially when you compare it to rival headsets - which I will get into later. I went through some mental gymnastics to justify paying this much for a gaming headset. Steelseries will no doubt use the current economy as an excuse, but the reality is £450 might be more palatable. Okay, so the price is shocking, so why have I awarded this headset 5 stars? Build quality & Design The build materials of the headset is second to none. A metal headband coated in a quality leatherette fabric. The plush, memory foam ear cushions (removeable). The gloss metal forks just exude premium quality. Even down to the metal volume dial. Great attention to detail is most evident. Comfort wise, I can't fault it. The clamp force is slightly stronger than the previous model (pro wireless), but it doesn't affect comfort one bit. It is clearly a design choice to assist ANC performance. The base station is also upgraded from the previous model. Premium quality is demonstrated throughout. Features It does everything the previous model does + more. You can customise settings via the base station/DAC, mobile phone app or PC software. There are so many EQs to choose from, including a long list of game-specific adjustments. ANC (active noise cancellation) was clearly a focus, because it is now right up there with high-end, dedicated Bluetooth headphones. This easily could be your everyday headset for on-the-go & travel. The passive isolation is also very good, so some won't even feel the need to activate ANC whilst gaming. The headset is compatible with everything you can think of for gaming (PS5, Switch 1 & 2, Xbox & PC). There's no specific Xbox/PS5 models to choose from this time. Mic The retractable mic is better than the pro wireless. The mic cable is now very flexible & stays in shape when you bend it (the previous model never did this). Voice is clear & won't have friends complaining how you sound. Whilst I wouldn't describe the mic as class leading (Astro A50X or Gen 5), it is very good. Arguably the best aspect of the mic is the noise cancellation - which can be adjusted. This feature of the headset is amazing & doesn't invite unwanted hiss. The internal mics on the headset also works extremely well. I expected my voice to sound like I was in a cave, but it doesn't. So using the internal mics for Bluetooth calls works very well. It's somewhat surprising Steelseries put so much emphasis upon the noise isolation & internal mics. Sound quality The key selling point of this headset are the new audio drivers. 40mm carbon fibre drivers, with a brass outer. Reminiscent of graphene drivers I've experienced in the Astro A50 Gen 5, distortion is significantly reduced. The performance is very similar to a planar magnetic driver, as seen in the Audeze Maxwell. The difference here, the audio is warmer & less clinical than the Maxwell. I prefer it. Similar in clarity, but the bass reproduction has more impact, whilst retaining detail. It's the immediate thing you will notice when listening to music or playing video games. Playing the newly released Battlefield 6 with this headset is a real treat. I'm not going to suggest they are some kind of cheat code to enable you to play better. But situational awareness is hightened. Playing the opening level to Indiana Jones & The Great Circle again introduced me to audio I hadn't noticed previously. The level of detail in the environmental audio helped put a smile on my face after spending so much (I haven't told the missus!). I haven't even messed with other EQs so far because the flat EQ out-of-the-box sounds so good. I'm sure I will tinker with various EQs in time. I genuinely cannot find fault with the audio. It's a significant step-up from the previous model. Directional audio is what you expect from a high-end headset. I'm using on a PS5 with 3D audio enabled & it's extremely accurate & immersive. It avoids that cavernous, almost echoey environmental audio of the Nova Pro wireless. There's great separation in every aspect of the soundstage, with voices in-game coming across super clear. Comparisons Audiophile's may still point to the Audeze Maxwell as having the best audio for gaming. Technically, they may be right. But audio is subjective. Even taking my own subjectivity out of it, the Nova Elite's run the Maxwell's damn close. I simply prefer a warmer sound, whilst retaining detail - which is what you get with the Elite's. Plus I prefer a headset that is comfortable to wear for long periods, which is why I rule out the Maxwell's as a direct rival. I would say the closest rival to the Nova Elite, in terms of comfort, build, audio & features, is the Astro A50 Gen 5. They sound great, but not quite as good as the Nova Elite. The A50's don't compare in terms of features either. But importantly, they are a lot cheaper! So whilst my 5 star rating seems like I'm giving a full endorsement of the Nova Elite, & commend Steelseries for the quality on offer. There are some good, more reasonably priced products to choose from. Whilst I would now put the Nova Elite at the very top of gaming headsets currently available. If I was to do a value for money list, the Astro A50 Gen 5 reign supreme - which you can get for around £230 in a sale. I hope my review has provided some help with your purchasing decision, along with some food for thought. I can only give my opinion on how good the headset is, not whether you as a potential buyer thinks it's worth the expense or not? I don't have buyer's remorse, but there will undoubtedly be others who will.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it have 7.1 surround sound option?**
A: There is a surround option if you are using them on pc not sure if it's 7.1 though. On Xbox you can use Atmos or DTS-X if you buy the apps. On Playstation they are fully compatible with Sony's Pulse 3D sound system.

**Q: Does the mic work even when its not pulled out or do we have to pull it out if we're trying to talk on a call or in chat?**
A: Does it work.. yes but its not very good (i havent heard the quality but have seen the mic activate in game). It is designed to be pulled out when you want to use it. Its more of a storage place for it to go when its not in use so its out the way

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Wireless Freedom – Just Be Aware of Audio Trade-Offs
*by R***D on 12 January 2026*

I previously had wired headphones, but these are perfect for nipping downstairs to grab a drink while still chatting to friends on Discord. The wireless freedom is a game changer, and the connection stays solid with no dropouts. They’re super comfortable, the hot-swap batteries are brilliant (never worrying about charging mid-session is amazing), and the active noise cancellation works really well. Overall build quality feels premium and exactly what you’d expect at this level. It is worth remembering that with wireless you do lose some audio and mic quality. While the device shows 48kHz / 24-bit, in practice you’re getting more “DVD quality” audio rather than true studio quality. That said, for gaming and voice chat, it’s absolutely fine and more than good enough. Overall, I’m super happy with them. Excellent headset if you value comfort, convenience, and flexibility—just go in knowing the limits of wireless audio.
