    Mate, you need to be praised for your production in these videos. Aside from the subject matter, your video work, lighting and product shots are on point. You're also covering the details that people actually want to hear which is insanely rare on the Tube. How you shoot and edit your content is up there with the RUclips big dogs, you're so deserving of many many more subs man. Keep up the good work!

    He left out one major plus with the pulse that takes the cake and makes them number 1.. plug the pulse into your ps5 controller and hold down volume up for 15 seconds.. a menu will pop up that allows you to customize the sound 100%. The sound quality these headsets are capable of is insane!

    Amazing review, so much so that I'm going out of my way to tell you that. Straight to the point, very detailed, covered everything we needed to know, totally objective and not exagerated in elements of the review (like I've heard many people say the Pulse 3D are incredibly tinny when that's not true at all), covered all sorts of things including pretty niche things I havent seen anywhere else like the shape of the 7p receiver. 10/10 review. Thank you.

    I just switched from the Pulse 3D headset to the Arctis 7p. Unfortunately, the Pulse 3D just didn't hold up after being used every day on both my PC (for work) and PS5 since release. I had to replace the ear cuffs, as the fake leather was peeling away from where it was glued to the inside. The head strap began to lose its elasticity, and the plastic frame of the headset itself snapped right where the rubber head band is screwed to the frame, suggesting a structural design flaw. I have to be clear, I wasn't rough with them and took great care to put them away properly after use. All-in-all I wouldn't recommend the Pulse 3D for daily prolonged use.

    • @nebula0024
      @nebula0024 3 года назад +1

      @@Clay44444 Personally I haven't noticed my ears getting particularly hot. I will say they are the softest ear cups I've ever worn, hands down. That may affect people differently on a case-by-case basis, though. As for the mic quality, it's perfectly "clear", but it does sound heavily processed. So IMO the quality is "low", but no one should have trouble understanding you. So if you're looking for pure sound quality compared to a studio mic, I'd say no in that regard.
      I've also noticed that you need to be careful tuning the EQ. The settings are saved to the headset itself, so will carry over to any other device after setting and saving it on a PC. That being said, certain settings will cause distortion. That can be mitigated by reducing in-game volume where applicable and increasing the headset volume itself.

      Best comment so far. Your feedback is spot on. I've owned various Sony gaming headsets and the biggest let down is durability. They break easy and I'm a careful person. My latest one has snapped on the headband. Battery life is also poor. The leather is fake. My ears get get covered in black flakey bits. I done with Sony headsets. They do produce good sound though.

    Great review! Seems like the Pulse 3D headphones sound a lot more natural. The 7ps seem to be doing a lot more processing to remove external noise, but it's a bit aggressive sounding which I think makes the mic sound somewhat tinny and artificial. Similar to how audio sounds in FCPX if you crank the "noise removal" up too much. Thanks for the review 🙏🏽

    excellent review! While I'd go with your suggestion, the Sony Pulse headphones are $150 in Australia, versus the Arctis 7p's at over $300. I feel the hefty double pricetag isn't worth it since your review showed they were both quite good, with the major difference that i can tell is the battery life.

    I have both, and I prefer the Pulse 3D over the Arctis 7P. They sound about the same, but Pulse's is bit better (I hear sounds more clearly in games like Rainbow Six and Warzone), and they are much more integrated in system, as you can mix the party / game mix directly on the headset and see the volume / battery level in the UI. On the other hand the Arctis are waaay more confortable and the battery lasts much longer. The microphone also sound surprisingly the same, considering is integrated on the Pulse (which is more confortable and looks better).
    To me, considering also the difference in price, Pulse 3D are a better headset overall for PS5.

    I’ve been using the Steelseries arctis 7p now for 2 years with my PS5. It’s beautiful, clear and spatial… the battery life is incredible and the comfort for glasses wearing individuals is amazing, but that’s it. The Arctis 7p is not an all around headset for games, multimedia and movies, it’s for games. Even after updating the firmware and choosing a great preset, the bass is so underwhelming it’s flat.
    I was very misinformed by Pulse 3d and arctis 7p reviews. Everyone favors the 7p and even says the mic is better. I just reluctantly bought the all black pulse 3d tonight from Best Buy (Saturday 12/10/22) and 2 hours with it, it’s simply beautiful. The standard sound preset on the eq beats the arctis 7p beautifully and the bass I was missing and wanting in the 7p is available automatically on the bass boost preset in the eq setting on the ps5. I don’t base my gaming headsets anymore on gaming spatial sound or quality, I now base it on… is it capable and worthy of watching Blu-ray and UHD Blu-ray movies and sound good across the spectrum without dropping or bottoming out. The arctis 7p cannot keep up, the pulse 3d just blew my mind and for $50 less. The arctis 7p is gorgeous, but it’s not even close to the performance of the pulse 3d. The microphone clarity blew my friends away and hearing them was so crystal clear. The arctis 7p is always trying to keep up in chat. I underestimated the pulse 3d based on so many articles and RUclips channels.
    If you have the arctis 7p, go to best buy, by the Pulse 3d, use it for one night. If you don’t like it you can return it no questions asked for 1 month. I expected to return the pulse 3d but again, it way overshot any expectations I could have ever had for it.
    Arctis 7p, I love you, but I’m selling you now.

    I bought both I have to say that the 7p + is far superior. I couldn’t wear the pulse 1 hour without becoming uncomfortable. The 7p+ is soooo comfortable. As far as sound quality the EQ is more customizable on the 7p+ and I feel they have the slight edge. Build quality is hugely better in the 7p+ they have a steal band and feel less cheap. The ear cups are way more comfortable and are fabric instead of pleather so they won’t peal. If your on the fence BUY the 7p+ everything is better.

    I have the Astro A50 but the ps5 is missing an optical port so I plugged them into the tv at the cost of microphone and native 3D sound. I am thinking about getting 1 of these 2 headsets for vr gaming and it seems like the p7 are way more comfy and even usable on other platforms. That’s why I‘ll probably pick up one of those since I might buy a quest 3 later this year. But first I have to test my beautiful A50 on the psvr2. 😁

    Since it’s technically RF (radio frequency) the higher the transceiver (dongle) the further the range will be. Just picture a triangle coming out of the bottom, and the higher the top of the triangle is (the dongle) the wider the base of the triangle will be. Same with all radio waves.

    Great review.. This would probably convince me more to get the Pulse 3d over the Arctis 7p. The extra 50 bucks is not worth it, at least for me. I hate that the arctis 7p still uses that long mouthpiece / mic. This should be a thing in the past now, and i understand why they'd go for this. Probably to have a better audio quality when using in chat but as seen in this video, looks like the Pulse 3d had a better audio quality even without that long mouthpiece. The ease of access in automatically bringing back your previous audio settings once you turn off your Pulse 3d is also a small feature that would likely push me to get this over the Arctis.

      Unfortunately, many companiesmake headsets designed to break or malfunction after a years use(Turtle Beach, Sony, etc.) Of course, they want to dip in our pockets for the next latest and greatest. Although there are those few companies that make a solid headset built to last. Steel series seems to be one of them.
