Truly plug and play
on September 22, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So easy to use! I love the dongle to switch from phone to Xbox to laptop to tablet by simply plugging the dongle in. You can also switch to Bluetooth mode by pressing a button on the side of the headphones. This allows you to connect to the app which lets you fine-tune sound settings. There are sooooo many games with fine-tuned settings already in the app!
I never had a problem with sound quality or the mic. The sound quality is good with no static or air sound. I've used these for gaming, streaming content, and music. They are good headphones!
The comfort strap and earpieces all adjust to customize the fit.

So Many Cool Features
on September 16, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never been a huge fan of gaming headsets - mostly because I find them uncomfortable to wear for long periods of time, and the fit never seems to be quite right. Cue the Arctis Nova 3x Wireless gaming headset. I wasn't sure what to expect when I opened the box, but I was looking forward to testing out some of the features, and I have to say I'm quite impressed.
Let's start with how easy it was to set up. It only took about 15 minutes to fully charge the headset thanks to the quick charge feature. I personally wasn't a fan of the super short usb C cord that was included , but I own longer usb C cords, so this was a minimal thing. Once the headset was charged, I plugged the dongle into the back of my Xbox (also a usb C connection) and turned on the headset. It connected almost instantly.
I plugged in the mic to the headset - and turned it on (the mic). I thought that particular feature was also really cool. I played around with the audio settings and tested it out while I played COD. It was almost like I was wearing surround sound headphones. I could hear every little background sound, and it made me feel immersed in the game. I could distinguish between a variety of sound levels - highs mids and even a nice rich bass. My voice and others seemed to be coming in clearly during the game.
I also appreciated the support strap at the top of the headset. It really optimized the overall fit of the headset - especially since I have a smaller (in my opinion) sized head. The earpads are an over the ear style (which is my preference), and I found them to be comfortably soft. I also appreciated that my ears weren't sweating after wearing them for a long period of time.
Apparently there is an app for the headset but I didn't feel like that was necessary for my usage. I think that overall the Arctis Nova 3x wireless gaming headset is a solid headset with a bunch of cool features. It's comfortable to wear, super easy to use (plug and play), easy to adjust and the sound quality is great. If you are looking for a new gaming headset - you should check it out.

High Quality and Budget Friendly.

This headset has really exceeded my expectations for the price. I have always viewed SteelSeries as a top contender for gaming headsets, but one of my major gripes has been that microphone never seemed to last very long. With this model, the microphone is detachable, and it seems to be a little better quality as well, which feels like a great move on SteelSeries part. The sound is amazing, and overall quality feels really good. I would highly recommend to anyone that’s looking for a solid wireless headset that won’t break the bank.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Finally: Silence

Over the past four months, I have tried six different wireless headsets from four different reputable brands. This is the first one that just works, exactly as intended. The sound quality is great, the latency is low, it's compatible with all my devices... And it's actually silent when it has to be, unlike its competitors.
Only detractor is that you have to manage certain settings, like how much I can hear myself when speaking, via a mobile app.

Best headset iv ever owned!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These steelseries wireless gaming headset is perfect for the everyday gamer/user; they look very sleek and fancy! Your also able to detach the microphone if you don't want to use it, and the buttons slide and function very smoothly. The sound quality is also pretty great! The headset itself if very light weight and comfortable to wear, most headsets and headphones start to irritate my eats after so long but these did not even after wearing them for just over 2 hours straight! I would highly recommend these to all my gamer friends as the quality is worth the ticket price. Iv paid more for other headsets and the quality was just crap compared to these! 10/10 recommendation!

Love this headset.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3X Wireless has been a great headset for me. It’s lightweight, really comfortable, and the breathable ear cushions make a big difference during long sessions. The sound is clear and immersive, especially in competitive games where directional audio matters, and I like being able to switch between devices easily with Bluetooth and the 2.4 GHz dongle. The customizable audio presets through the app are a cool touch too. It fits a little snug at first, but overall, it’s been a reliable and versatile headset that feels well worth the price.
