In a crowded market, it can be daunting to find a headset that you'll be happy with for years to come, but the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7--our top pick for PlayStation and Xbox--has a good chance of doing just that. Ahead of Amazon Prime Day 2024, this phenomenal headset is on sale at an unmissable price. If you're looking for the best bang for your buck, this is a versatile headset that offers both impressive audio performance and superb ergonomics.
This is GameSpot's top pick for not only the best PS5 gaming headset, but also the best Xbox gaming headset. Out of the box, you're getting superb audio quality--including 360-degree spatial audio and Tempest 3D Audio support on PS5--up to 38 hours of battery life on the wireless models, and a very comfy design. The Nova 7P works wirelessly with PC, PlayStation, Switch, and mobile platforms. Xbox users will want to pick up the 7X. Both models are functionally the same, with the Nova 7X offering universal wireless support.
The naming convention can get a little bit confusing, but the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 is also on sale and this is essentially the go-to wireless model for PC, PS5, PS4, and Switch owners, so in case the 7P sells out, you can grab this one instead. If you don't mind a refurbished model, you can save even more with the refurbished Arctis Nova 7X (in excellent condition).
For an even higher-end model, there's the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro wireless headset--our top pick for the best premium gaming headset. The Nova Pro also has PlayStation/PC and Xbox (universal) models. Some of the cool features include rock-solid noise-canceling, compatibility with the advanced audio hardware of PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, a base station with an OLED display, and a pair of hot-swappable batteries so you can keep on gaming.
The recently released wireless white model is on sale for $70 off. This particular deal applies to the Xbox version, so you're getting universal wireless compatibility with your consoles. You can connect the base station to two consoles or one console and a PC, and it'll automatically detect which platform you are playing. Additionally, the Nova Pro supports dual audio streams, so you can connect it to your phone via Bluetooth while also maintaining your 2.4GHz wireless connection.
These are available in both wireless and wired models, with the wired models being quite a bit more affordable. If you're sitting at your PC or your console is on your desk--and you don't mind a refurbished unit--getting an Arctis Nova Pro for $89 is a heck of a deal.
The other model available is a black one, although this one works with everything except Xbox. Both refurbished options below are listed as "excellent" condition.
