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!

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.

Truly plug and play

[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.

I would recommend this to a friend!

Really comfortable to wear
on October 1, 2025
Posted by: christines414_7506
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sounds was great once I was finally able to get it connected to my Xbox. The Bluetooth connection was a little annoying with having to turn it off and on till it finally connects. This happened every time I went to use them. They’re extremely comfortable to wear. The sound quality is pretty good but did lag and go in and out a little sometimes, but im assuming that is also a connection issue. The microphone comes out which I love Incase you’re playing a game where you don’t need it.

Greta headset!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a new headset and this has been perfect. It’s super comfortable. The audio sounds great through the headphones. The mic quality is clear. I had a little bit of trouble getting it to connect to my council, but was able to figure it out as a Little trial and error. I do have a hard time. The game volume and my voice chat volume through my headset and that’s an issue that I’m working on figuring out and seeing if there’s an option to fix. Otherwise it’s been a fantastic headset.
