Excellent headset if you're able to snag it. Probably direct from steel series at this point it looks like. My personal experience - super comfortable, doesn't get hot, great mic, battery lasts a good long time. Biggest con is the sound. This is great for multiplayer stuff, especially FPS, sports, etc. What I will say is that if you're looking for great sound playing single player games, look elsewhere, like HyperX Cloud Alpha, even if wired on console.
Wow, that thing sold out at Amazon faster than a knife fight in a phone booth... I've got the lower model of this and am very happy with it. If u are buying it for a console - be sure and connect to PC to update with the latest firmware. There is an Arctis smartphone app that lets you apply game EQ presets quick and easy - even if you are playing a console game.

In my experience this is one of the few headsets that is comfortable for larger heads . Been happy with mine for the past few years and I use it across PS5 and Xbox without issue.

Unfortunately the eq app doesn't work for the 7 series.

Can anyone recommend a wireless gaming headset with the best sound quality? My main use case is single player games and movies. I prefer a USB dongle over Bluetooth due to latency. Couldn't care less about mic quality. TIA
Avoid this brand like the plague. Own 5 different headsets from 3 manufacturers. This brand's headset is the only one that failed in 14 months, two months past the warranty period. Other headsets are significantly older and more frequently used while this one was only used for business purposes daily. Looks new, holds charge yet no longer had audio out of one side. It turned out to be a 10 cent potentiometer for volume control that failed. Once support declined to make an exception I had to replace it out of stubbornness only to prevent it from an early retirement to the landfill.

A mix of MP games like COD and Halo but also single player games like Ghost of Tsushima and the upcoming release of Rebirth
