The white and blue colour scheme matches the upcoming console perfectly, but if you have a white PSP or Vita laying around, it matches just as well. Design: 97/100Īs soon as you take the headset out of the box, you know it will compliment your Playstation 5. SteelSeries makes a dedicated Arctis 7X on the Xbox front instead.We took it through its paces to see whether SteelSeries achieved the same standard that they have for their keyboards…. There's definitely something to be said for a headset that works seamlessly with PS5 and Xbox Series X, it just isn't this one. I'd only say to pass on this if you want full compatibility with all consoles. I'm not someone who usually plays games with a headset on - I primarily use them on PC for work - but I continually picked up my Arctis 7P before turning on my PS5 the last couple of weeks. Regardless, it's an amazing headset that spares no expense to deliver excellent comfort and audio without costing too much money.

well, when it's in stock, because it can be a bit difficult to find right now. The SteelSeries Arctis 7P is by far the best PS5 headset you can buy currently.

You want full compatibility with additional consoles like Xbox.

You want an app for additional customization options.

You want the option to choose between colors.

You're mostly concerned with comfort and battery life.

You want to make the most of PS5's 3D audio.

Turn off the RGB lighting and you can get a whopping 29 hours of battery life out of them. At just $120 or $130 depending on which color you choose, it's a great deal. In our Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 review, we said that you get 'excellent audio, a flexible design, and great comfort in a well-built package.' Its battery life is lower than the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro and Arctis 7P (both with 24 hours) coming in at around 20 hours, but it's still a long time for several gaming sessions.įor anyone looking for something more stylish - not to mention cheaper - there's also the Logitech G733 (opens in new tab) headset. If you want a headset for the same price, the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 (opens in new tab) also costs $150. Unfortunately, it doesn't do so on PS5, giving the Arctis 7P an advantage with its 3D audio.

It comes in at $30 more, but it offers basically the exact same amount of comfort and delivers THX 7.1 surround sound on PC. There are quite a few headsets on the market competing with the Arctis 7P, like the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro (opens in new tab).
