I have these and paid $40 about a year ago. Very happy with them. Not amazing, not terrible. Work great for the price. Great value! I'd buy these as a backup, but I already have them in black for a backup.

Edit: Full disclosure. I don't game online so I NEVER used the microphone. Obviously this is huge for many people. My comments above are for people who don't play MP.

I have used these steelseries, and they are decent. But I prefer these hyperX (and they are cheaper):

Thanks! I would give them a shot, but I have a huge skull. Designs like this are usually too small for my head.

Bought these a couple weeks ago for $50 and have been happy with them. Switched from the official Sony PS5 wireless headset and the steelseries have been much more comfortable and they sound great.

I just bought these for the same price at GameStop [gamestop.com]. Was also picking up a copy of Horizon Forbidden West (also on sale) so I had enough to qualify for free shipping.

I have lots of headsets at home that I game on (Razer, Xbox & Sony Official Licensed) including a pair of Steel Series Arctis 5 that I use for PC gaming. By far, my favorite headset that sounds the best, and is the most comfortable is the Steel Series.

While I don't have what I would call a huge skull, I am 6'4" and have a headsize that matches, so pretty big. I keep these set at about 2/3 size, so there is room for those with bigger heads. You can always try from Amazon or Best Buy with easy returns. Good luck šŸ¤ž

2nd on longevity, had a pair for several years. Replaceable cable eliminates common failure point, can get an adapter for pc use with 1/8 inch plugs.

Been using these for over a year, used em on my Series X, PS5 and more recently on my gaming PC.
They are very comfortable (to me) and sound pretty good for the money. I never play online, so no comment about the mic, but the game audio quality is good.
I also paired them with the Steelseries GameDac a month or so ago and they sound even better with it.

Have arctis 5 for several years (~4yrs) and never regret. Comfortable and clean look than any other. I never feel my head squeezed after 4-5 hours using.

I've used many steel series headsets from 300$ down to the Arctics 5 they are all good.

Be careful! I have Arctis 3 with Bluetooth and love them. But apparently there is a difference between "Arctis 3" and "Arctis 3 Bluetooth" (though both of them are wired), and I almost bought these as a replacement not realizing these are different even though they both say Arctis 3.

The Arctis 3 bluetooth is Dope.
(and apparently discontinued)

You could play your game, listen to a podcast and not miss incoming calls.

I've got maybe 4-5 sets of cans now, though I don't consider myself an audiophone listener. Mostly gaming and zoom calls.

I recently got the SteelSeries Arctic 7+, and I *really* like it. The 7+ is wireless and has some crazy passthrough tech that I /don't/ love; but what I do love is the form factor and the aesthetics. I love how they cup my ear and they have a nice weight to them; not heavy, but substantial. (This probably wouldnt be considered a Good Thing by most "real" audiophones, but i dig it.)

I'm in for two - one for me at my desk, to free up the 7, and one for my GF.
