The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5X Wireless is an excellent choice for gamers looking for comfort and performance: - The headset is very comfortable, even during long gaming sessions, thanks to the soft headband and ear cushions. - The sound is clear, with clear bass and fine details that are ideal for gaming. - It has a long battery life. You can play up to 60 hours without charging, and with just a few minutes of charging you can go for a few more hours. - Easy to use and not too heavy. - Looks very nice. I think this Arctis Nova 5X Wireless is a good choice for gamers looking for a comfortable, wireless headset. I am happy with it.

This headset makes gaming so much more chill!

  • Comfort
  • Freedom
  • Battery life
  • Updatable via PC only

I wasn’t sure if I really needed a wireless headset for my Xbox at first, but now that I’ve been using it for a while, I’m really glad I have one. It’s just so cool not being tied to a cable and you have so much more freedom of movement. Connecting it to the Xbox was really easy, literally plug-and-play. It’s comfortable on my head, even during long sessions, and the sound is really good. You can also adjust the volume, for example turning the game sound down and turning up the voice, which is really handy if you play a lot with friends. I didn’t understand how the microphone worked at first (lol), but you just have to pull it out. My friends can hear me really well and everything sounds nice and clear. You can also tweak things via the app, but there’s one thing I find a bit annoying: you can’t update the headset’s software via the app. For that, you have to connect it to a PC and download a separate app from SteelSeries. A bit of a hassle, but otherwise really great. Oh, and I got to test this headset for free, but I would definitely recommend it.

Again a good product, connecting is a hassle.

  • sound quality
  • comfort
  • design
  • connect to xbox

After testing the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5X White for a few weeks, I can say that this headset performs impressively, but it is not without its flaws. The sound quality is phenomenal, with clear highs and deep bass that provide an immersive experience. What I didn’t like, however, is that I have a hard time hearing myself during calls, making it difficult to have a natural conversation, which can be distracting during longer gaming sessions. The design is stylish and fits well with a modern gaming setup. Overall, a solid choice, but personally I found the Arctis 7X to be better in design and easier to connect to.
