The pros, the Arctis 9X had a GREAT mic, as soon as I used the MS headset, my friends could tell the difference. They said I sounded tinny, and they definitely preferred the Arctis mic. Also, the Arctis mics are known to be the best, the same noise reducing technology that aircraft carrier workers use. At least I think that's what I remember reading about. Also, the mute button, I liked it, easy to use, and the mic could be extended in and out.
So there are the pros and cons with the Arctis.
Now for the MS headset. way more comfortable, one of the more comfortable headsets I've worn, but also bear in mind, this is personal preference.
I don't like the mic being stationary. As in, the arm bends, but it doesn't extended in and out. I like being able to hide the mic into the earcan. Next, the earcan each is the dial to control the volume. So both cans control the volumes, much easier to control than Arctis. Mute button is underneath the mic arm, it works, but prefer Arctis.
Finally, I also own the Dolby Atmos app, the MS comes with a trial, but I've been using the Atmos app for the Arctis and now the MS.
With regards to hearing footsteps and so forth, I think the Arctis is slightly better, but not double.
In the end, I like the MS better, if just for the comfort sake, but overall package, price, and everything, it cannot be beat.
Also, just to inform those who are reading this, I've owned Turtle Beach, Astro, previous MS headset, Arctis, and Razer headsets. I've tried and used MANY.
I haven't found the end-all, be all yet. Lots of people say Arctis 9X, but again, the fit is an issue for me. If fit sucks, I don't care how good the audio is. Finally, to update Arctis, it needs a computer. The MS headset, does it connected to the xbox. Just one extra step I like that I save.
