Best for Xbox and PC/Mobile
I’m in love with these headsets, it was just plug and play. The app is very useful to change the EQ preset according to the game I play on Xbox. There was no need to do extra steps to get these to work, although you might need a PC in order to update the firmware with SteelSeries GG software.The headset feels comfortable and I barely feel I have them on after several hours (I have a small head). The sound is very clear, I can notice small details while gaming, no heavy bass boost or any extra sound feature that make the sound uncomfortable like explosions in game. It is a well balanced sound and they are very loud that I barely keep them 100% the volume, with SteelSeries GG software on PC you can customize the EQ how you like for competitive shooter games or any other games you play. I feel the default EQ presets I tried were really nice, some people have issues with some default EQ presets but you can always tweak it with GG software ¯_(ã)_/¯.The SteelSeries App just works, it was easy to set up and there is no delay while changing the EQ preset. However you cannot make a custom preset from the app, you might need to install SteelSeries GG software on your PC and create the EQ preset on Engine section. You can set the Equalizer for 2.4Ghz connection or BT, having an EQ gaming preset for 2.4Ghz and EQ music preset for BT, there is no need to switch it over again after switching to Xbox/PC or phone.There is no delay or distortion issue with the dongle on Xbox or PC, I feel the delay on these headsets are very minimum, dialogues are always synced. on mobile I just use it to listen audios or watch short videos that I don’t care much how it works there but it works really nice and there is no delay at all. Bluetooth on PC I wished I can test it and I hope to do it soon.A quick tip if you move the dongle back and forth on Xbox and PC, you can install the Xbox Accessories app on PC and use the dongle on Xbox mode on PC, this just works ¯_(ã)_/¯Noted: These headsets will only work Wireless, with either the original dongle or Bluetooth. There is no wired solution or to pair it with Xbox Wireless Adapter on PC, I wished these two options were available for versatility. and there is no simultaneously BT connection, you either have it connected via dongle or have it connected via BT but you cannot listen to both at the same time, the quick switch just works really fast tho.I still haven’t tried really well the battery life for these headsets, I’ve been using it a lot to tweak things and use it on Xbox, PC and phone that battery life just lasted a week, I will measure it with a normal use later on. (hopefully I didn’t get a deflective one since 1 week was pretty short according to their 60hr battery life advertisement)—I hope to get back to this review for long term review, in my opinion SteelSeries did a good job making these headsets for this price comparing to others brands for what it offers. It is really worth the purchase if you mainly use Xbox and PC for gaming.

Affordable Luxury!
Iâll start off by saying that I was always the type of person who didnât believe in paying $100+ for a gaming headset, I always bought budget to mid tier headsets as I didnât think there would be a noticeable difference in quality, so when I heard about the new Arctis Nova 5, I was hesitant, the price seemed a little higher than I was willing to pay, but Iâve seen a few reviews for this headset and I was intrigued by some of the features it offers, 60 hour battery life, which is quite good compared to a lot of other wireless headsets that usually offer a 20-25 hour battery life, a companion app that has a ton of game presets, bluetooth connectivity for when you wanna use it on your phone or laptop without having a dongle sticking out of your device, decent mic quality, great sound, great build quality, a design that doesn’t scream âIâM A GAMERâ so it even looks a little professional, and great comfort, it seemed perfect, it was everything I ever needed from a wireless gaming headset, so I decided to spend the extra money and buy this headset, and wow I was pleasantly surprised and proven wrong, it completely delivered, and in some cases exceeded what I was hoping to get from this headset, you get premium features, sound quality, and build quality for a relatively affordable price, you get what you pay for, and more, the term âaffordable luxuryâ that SteelSeries used to market this headset isnât just a marketing term, it describes the headset perfectly.

Amazing battery life, lightweight
Bought this because my coolermaster headset broke, been very happy with it so far.Pros:Battery life is excellentSound is great when set up correctlyLightweightComfortableSimple to use controls and softwareFits my big headSleek minimal designCons:One of the game presets sound awful (rainbow six siege) but it could be for that tactical advantage lolNon detachable micWish the software could auto detect what game your in and jump to that preset. It might but i havent found it in settings.Overall this is a great deal for the price, it’s top tier quality, software, and battery life for mid tier price.

Best for all-around platform
I have used the Arctis Nova 5 for 2 days now on my PC, mobile, android tablet and so far I have no complains. Connecting from one device to another is seamless. The companion app sure is helpful not only to config but also to keep track of the battery life. Coming from Arctis 7, which is still rocking after 4 yrs of use. I can say that this is a major upgrade in terms of comfort and mic quality. The headband is so light weight that it barely feels that you have something on. Can definitely wear this for hours! The battery life was also greatly improved.TLDR – If you have multiplatform with Bluetooth connectivity, this is a no brainer – this is a must get! I have already the mouse Rival 650 wireless and the mousepad – hope to complete my full Steelseries setup soon!

The App is a Game-Changer
Like the title says, the companion app is a game-changer. Being able to set EQs (including customs) with a couple taps in the app for every game you play truly makes a sonic difference in gameplay. Iâm also really impressed with the sound quality. To my ears they sound just as good as my Nova 7X, though not quite as on par with the Nova Pro Wireless but thatâs expected for a headset that costs 3x as much. I like to customize my headsets with Wicked Cushion ear pads because I think theyâre significantly more comfortable than the stock pads, and I wish the 5X had swappable side plates like the 7X and Pro, but I understand they need to reserve some features for the more expensive headsets. Iâm guessing product updates to the Nova 7s and Pros are right around the corner to give them their own apps as well, but if youâre looking for an excellent-sounding, lightweight, long-lasting headset right now then this is the one to get. $130 is a steal for what they offer.

Arctis nova 5 modelini bir aydır yoÄun Åekilde kullanıyorum. Gündüz iÅimde ve akÅamları oyun oynarken kullanıyorum. Åarjı belirtildiÄi gibi gidiyor ve çok hızlı Åarj oluyor. Mikrofon kalitesinde Åüphelerim olmuÅtu ama baÅarılı toplantılarda ses kalitesi konusunda olumlu geri dönüŠaldım. Mobil uygulama üzerinden ayarları yapabilmek ve batarya bilgisini görüntüleyebilmek çok pratik. Pc uygulaması discord ve bazı oyunlarda sorunlara neden oluyor o nedenle kaldırdım. Müziklerde kalitesine orta diyebilirim. EQ ayarına göre deÄiÅkenlik gösteriyor. Belki iyi bir ayarla kalitesi yükselebilir. Ä°Å bilgisayarında bluetooth engelli olduÄu için usb dongle ile sorunsuz kullanabiliyorum. Ä°lk açıldıÄında ses seviyesi limitli geliyor uygulamadan kaldırabiliyor. Toplantıdayken telefon çalarsa hafif bir ses ile uyarıyor, tuÅa basınca bluetootha geçip telefona baÄlanıyor. 2+1 evin her yerinde sorunsuz kullanabiliyorum. Kesinti vb sorun yaÅarsanız wifi baÄlantınızın 5ghz olduÄuna emin olun, 2.4ghz de typec dongle sorun yaÅatabiliyor. Dongle ile linux baÄlantısında bir sorun yok ilave kurulum gerektirmiyor. Uygulaması olmadıÄı için Åarj görüntüleme veya eq deÄiÅtime yapamıyorsunuz sadece.AlıÅveriÅle ilgili tek olumsuz yorumum aldıktan kısa bir süre sonra 500-600 tl civarı fiyat düÅtü.

It is a pretty good headphone. It came with no problems at all and was not used before.

Daha önce Corsair Void Elite Wireless kullanıyordum. 2 sene sonunda mic bozulunca Steelseries denemeye karar verdim. Günlük ortalama 8-10 saat bilg. baÅında oluyorum ve kulaklık benim için çok önemli. Ayrıca migrenim olduÄu için rahatsızlık veren ve baÅımı sıkan kulaklıkları birçok kez denedim ve kullanamadım. 1-2 haftalık deneyimlerimi aktarayım. Ãncelikle eski kulaklıÄımla karÅılaÅtırırsam Steelseries kulaklıÄı aÅırı hafif ve rahat. Ä°lk gün 18 saat kullandım herhangi bir rahatsızlık vermedi. Åarj konusuna gelirsek Åarjı gerçekten çok iyi benim gibi biri için yaklaÅık 3 gün rahatlıkla kullanabiliyorum. Corsairda günlük Åarja takmam gerekiyordu. Mesafe konusunda corsairla aynı kapasitede hiç bir farkı yok. Uygulamada mesafe arttırma diye ekstra bir seçenek var mikrofon kalitesini düÅürüp menzil arttırıyor ama denemedim yada gerek görmedim. Ses kalitesine gelirsek corsairden çok daha iyi. Mikrofon olarak ise ben corsairden çok memnundum fakat Steelseries bu kulaklıÄında onuda mükemmel bir Åekilde eklemeler yaparak corsairden çok daha iyi olduÄunu söyleyebilirim. Ayrıca Steelseries GG + Sonar gerçekten çok kullanıÅlı. Yıllardır Ä°CUE ile çebelleÅtim her update geldiÄinde bir problem hata vb sıkıntıları yaÅadım. Ama Steelseriesin programı çok daha konforlu. Kulaklık ayrıca telefon + bilgisayara aynı anda baÄlanıyor (bluetooth ve wireless). Bilgisayarda bir iÅ yaparken telefon çaldıÄında hiç kalkmadan kulaklıktan cevaplayabiliyorsunuz. Ãok iÅ görüyor. Telefon uygulaması da gayet güzel bir çok EQ var her oyun için ayrı ses düzenlemiÅler. Tavsiyem sonar uygulamasına forum sayfarlarında yada steelseriesin discord uygulamasında bir çok EQ var onları ekleyin.Ãrüne verdiÄim puan 10/10Kalite – Konfor – Kullanım – Software – Ses & Mikrofon 10/10

Ertesi gün teslim edildi. Kulaklık hafif, kaliteli plastik. Padler yumusak ve terletmiyor, kafada sıkmadan saÄlam ve rahat duruyor. Hem 2.4 ghz hem de bluetooth baÄlantısı var. Ses kalitesi gayet iyi, basslar tatmin edici ama müzik kulaklıları kadar güçlü deÄil. Ekolayzır flat olarak geliyor ama Hi-Fi yazanı seçince ses daha iyi oluyor. Kulaklık üstünde de ayrı bir ses kısma arttırma tekerleÄi var. Mikron ses kalitesi güzel. DıÅardaki sesleri kulaklıÄa da verebiliyor. Rgb yok ama bir eksi deÄil. Telefon için uygulaması da var. Pcde kontrol ise kendi programından yapılıyor. Dongle ile Åuana kadar bir sorun yaÅamadım, kasa arkasındaki type-c giriÅine baÄladım. Hızlı Åarj oluyor ve kullanım ömrü çok iyi.
Ãok iyi tavsiye ederim –
