SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless Headset review

The best wireless gaming headset (a lot of) money can buy

Lossless, Hi-Res Certified audio ; Convenient dual battery system ; Unmatched comfort

The priciest wireless gaming headset ; Not compatible with Xbox One ; Microphone isolation needs improvement

Although it costs a pretty penny, the SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless Headset is unmatched in sound quality even up against wired gaming headsets.

Steelseries Arctis Pro + GameDAC review

Gaming audio goes hi-res with this fantastic-sounding headset

Great sound quality for music and film, as well as games ; External DAC a step up from integrated audio ; Comfy fit

LED lights are a bit lairy ; Expensive

Finely balances immersive gaming audio and high grade listening for music and films. There are better cans for pure listening, but this does the lot very well indeed

SteelSeries Arctis Pro + GameDAC Gaming Headset: High Res At A High Price

With so many of the gaming headsets we review landing in the $100 range (and serving up impressive performance), what could possibly justify the $250 price tag that SteelSeries pins on its Arctis Pro + GameDAC? There's the dedicated digital-to-analog...

SteelSeries does almost everything right with its Arctis Pro + GameDAC, from sound reproduction to build quality and comfort. Similar to the company's Siberia family, we wish this headset fit better over large heads. We'd also like to hear better bass...

SteelSeries Arctis Pro gaming headset review

Multiple versions, each with a wide range of supported platforms ; Doesn’t require extra software or drivers ; Hi-res audio performance ; Very comfortable ; Sleek, minimalist design

Setup is a bit of hassle

The Arctis Pro solves the few compatibility shortcomings the previous Arctis headsets faced and boosts the quality up across the board. It’s become our new top pick for gaming headsets, regardless of system.
