Wireless connectivity works seamlessly with its included dongle, and I have had zero dropouts or latency issues with it on both PS4 and Nintendo Switch. I originally purchased this headset primarily for the PS4, as I imagined wireless headsets were completely incompatible with the Nintendo Switch, but the headset does in-fact work effortlessly and all the buttons on the headset (Mic Mute On/Off, Volume Dial) work on both systems. Mic quality is excellent as well as audio quality, it’s perfectly balanced and not ridiculously skewed towards bass, and the volume can be raised very high on both consoles if you want. Battery life so far has also been great, it’s something I haven’t had to worry about when using and I only had to charge them once every week out of habit. The headset itself doesn’t feel flimsy and seems decently built, It’s pretty light and is surprisingly comfortable to wear, so much I use it also when I’m on my laptop. The only thing that slightly annoys me is that when I switch playing consoles and want to use the headset on it, I have to get up and unplug the headset dongle and connect it to the console I’m using (say, from the PS4 to the Nintendo Switch). This is pretty much a first world problem, but it’s something I’ve come across every once in a while.
Overall I have to say I’m really loving this headset, if you were on the fence for this thing I really recommend you give it a try.
UPDATE June 2020: It’s been 8 months since I’ve bought this headset, and I just wanted to report back that it has held up ROCK SOLID. This thing is by all means not flimsy, and the battery life has held up incredibly well. I’ve been gaming really long sessions, roughly 5-6 hours long each with friends online, and this thing just keeps going with no issues whatsoever. One of the few purchases I’ve made that I can say was absolutely worth it.
FINAL UPDATE April 2021: Managed to get myself a PS5 and happy to say the headset works flawlessly with it. The new thing I love about the headset now is that the PS5 has a USB-C port in the front, which means you don’t have to use the included cable that comes with the headset dongle for USB-A, you can plug it directly to the PS5 and it sits flush and is almost unnoticeable.
Verdict. Considering the price, these are amazing headphones for gaming, the sound is fantastic. There isn't an exaggerated low end to the sound which is good for games because boosting the low-end causes ear fatigue in situations where there are lots of simulated explosions. Unless you enjoy the idea of hearing loss. They are nicely flat sounding straight out of the box. They can get loud without losing detail. But to really squeeze all the value out of these headphones, you will want to install the software from Steel Series and you can give these any sound profile you want with a multipoint band equalizer, with a level of detail found in DAW and the ability to then save the setting to the headphones on board memory.
Comfort, they are super light, it's easy to forget that I even have them on. These are more comfortable than my Siberia 800's which I thought were pretty comfy.
I tested these doing some music production and the latency isn't to bad at all. The latency is 32 ml which is about the same as a speaker 32 feet away. Not the best compared to a wireless set made for music production which does 16 ms but cost $350. For the money these are totally worth it. For music production, you can make these as flat as you want.
Battery life is really good. One charge is good for at least 20 hours of continuous listening.
Things I don't like. Considering the ultra-low price of these cans, I consider these complaints not really valid. But they do cost only what they cost for a reason. They charge with micro-USB A, which is annoying to deal with in the dark. The volume dial is really small and took some getting used to.
Is it worth getting the next level model up for $40 more. Yeah, I think so.
I DON'T HAVE ANY OF THESE PROBLEMS WITH THIS NEW HEADSET!!!
The sound is amazing; I can hear sounds from all directions and there is no crackling/static. The ear pads are very comfortable; I game on my PC for at least 10 hours per day, and I have yet to experience any soreness or fatigue. Noise cancelling on the mic is excellent. The range is pretty good; I can walk from my room to the downstairs kitchen without the headset disconnecting. The headset is also rhythm game-friendly, as the audio does not lag or desync at all--a problem I experienced with the A20. Battery life seems to be accurate. My only gripe is that I have to download the SteelSeries software to customize the audio, which requires creating an account and giving out my email address.
Overall, if you are not an audiophile and want a good wireless headset for a budget-friendly price, I highly recommend the Arctis 1. I'm sure any other SteelSeries model is great; my sister has the Arctis 7 and loves it. I settled with this one because it was the cheapest I could find (and less expensive than the A20).
Top reviews from other countries
They're very comfortable forgiving if dropped due to the lightweight and flexible build. Honestly, having the wireless option is so much better than anything else offered on the market, if you're looking for a wireless gaming headset, look no further.
Algo malo que le encontré es que la ruedita para cambiar el volumén a los pocos meses empezó a hacer un falso como de circuito barato, no le bajo la calificación porque hasta ahora es algo que no ha afectado su funcionalidad pero se nota la baja calidad ahí. Lo recomiendo.
