SteelSeries Arctis 7P Wireless Gaming Headset Lossless 2 4 GHz 30 Hour Battery Life USB-C 3D Audio For

Like the headline says, it's an excellent headset. I spent a long time researching gaming headsets(since black Friday when I bought the Corsair Virtuoso wireless RGB XT and thought it was the best at everything EXCEPT audio and bass quality Which I ended up returning) The Arctis 7P+ is very close in terms of being compatible with everything and is probably even more comfortable but the most important thing to me was audio quality. The bass is fantastic here, enjoyable , has some punch but doesn't sound muddy. You can use the EQ on the SteelSeries GG software to change how it sounds, like using the increased bass preset, which sounds nice at first but isn't needed imo. The out of the box sound is great with depth and boom when there are explosions and I spend hours talking to my girl on Discord. The microphone is good. The style looks great , I really like it I could have bought the black one and received it much sooner but I opted to wait a few weeks to get this white one which is beautiful (could be better with some RGB though). I would have preferred a gamechat mix wheel instead of the Sidetone control but it's not that important to me. I haven't tried the 3d audio much, I tried it on my PS5 with Cyberpunk 1.5 patch and thought it sounded decent , I normally play on a real 7.1 surround sound system so I've never been impressed with virtual surround sound in headphones. I've been meaning to try Miles Morales but haven't gotten around to it. I spend most days on my gaming PC's and even though the 7+ model is recommended for the PC, this 7P+ works just as well. Whatever they're doing with this sky goggle headband thing works. It's more comfortable than any other headset I tried. I love the headset and would highly recommend it , just keep in mind I've only play Halo infinite and heard footsteps and grenades much better than my previous headsets but I don't play counter strike or Valorant or Overwatch (anymore) so I can't comment on competitive gaming performance but for talking, COOP games and single player and music it's an excellent choice in 2022.

head set is easy to use and sounds great. My Astros sound slightly better but have to be charged more frequently. I can use these all week long on a single charge and it doesn't require a docking station or cables that have to be plugged into the gaming system. Read more

Immediately noticed a difference between this and my previous headset. I game off of a PS5 and this is excellent for the platform. Playing MW2 (As an example of a popular game) I'm able to hear enemies long before I see them. Audio is accurate and the volume adjustment is excellent for different games. The mic audio (As noted by my friends) is sometimes robotic sounding. This may be the new MW having issues (it has a lot..) as this is the only game I've played with friends utilizing this headset. I will update the review later to give an idea if it's a product defect or a game issue. Overall I recommend this headset. It's crisp, comfortable for long gaming periods, and easy to set up and use. When muted there's a distinct led on the mic letting you know you're muted (We've all been there during a game when you're giving call outs and you think no one's listening to you... When actually you just messed up and muted yourself) Headset has a good battery life. At this time I don't have any real cons. Maybe price at the worse? Regardless I think this headset is worth the money. Read more

I like this headset. The sound quality is great, exactly what you'd expect out of a high-end gamer headset. The volume controls the physical output level of the headset itself, it's not a soft control for the volume levels on your device, which I personally like. It's also the most comfortable headset I've worn, while also managing to fit tightly on my head. You can move around, do light exercise, lie down, etc. and it will stay snug. No complaints on the battery life. The mic quality is whatever, but that's to be expected. However I write this review to explain an issue which, although not at all a big deal, is frankly inexcusable in current year. 1 month after getting the headset, on a morning right before a meeting, I found out that the headset wouldn't turn on. Normally you hold the power button for a few seconds and it turns on, but this time it just wouldn't. I tried charging it for a while, no luck. Naturally I thought the thing was defective so I contacted customer support to return it. After the usual, they suggested that I try resetting the power on the headest. Huh? Not turning it off and on again (which I obviously couldn't do), but resetting the power. I remember that was a thing you did with like, old electronics. I looked up how to do it online, removed an ear cover (which is easy to do and replace, unlike on some other headsets, so that's a plus), and inserted a paper clip into the reset hole, and boom it worked again. It's nice that this mechanism was in place. It's nice that it was easy. But for an electronic made after 2010, this shouldn't have happened. How often do people have paper clips laying around nowadays? And I checked, I was using the latest firmware. So in summary, great headset, just remember that we're still not in the future yet.
