Appreciate the quick difference highlight at the beginning. I didn't need to watch the whole video but because you did that I let the video play all the way through - get that minutes watch stat up! Comment for the algorithm. Keep up the good work. The go-to-guy for tech reviews!
This guy is great. Kind of bothers me how he doesn’t have too many bad things to say about any Headset ever no matter how bad they are like turtle beaches or something like that but he is pretty freaking great at this Stuff so I just get over my little complaint lol
Why you menton turtlebeach ? The stealth 700 Gen 2 are awesome, i would even say they better than the 7p by a little.. And yes i own both so i know what im saying..
@@djdomxx I gotta respectfully disagree on that one, the only area I would say stealth 700 gen 2 beat out 7P or 7P-+ is in durability over time far as staying in one piece. The hinges on steel series are definitely a weak spot. But every single area far as performance I’ve gotta say steel series beats them especially when it comes to directional hearing.. footsteps, gunshots etc. as the stealth 700, when you make a good eq adjustment geared towards fps on the 7P the directional audio is absolutely of this world! I’m guessing since you have adjusted the turtle beaches on your phone app you also have the engine app for your pc to tune in your steel series headsets??
Definitely keeping my 7P's as I can use them for pretty much everything except Xbox wireless. However, for your issue on the bass, you can download the software on your PC and switch to "Immersion" mode which will enhance the bass and have some more separation. Either way, I'm glad you covered this and convinced me to stay with my go to headset, the 7P 👍🏻
Do you have to download that preset separately? I plugged in my 7p+’s and the only presets on the gg software were smiley, bass boost, focus, flat and custom. I can’t find immersion or performance.
@@fayrvii2687 That's the same I saw (no immersion setting). Just got my 7P+ yesterday, but TBH, I'm returning them and going with Audeza Penrose instead. The 7P+ just didn't do it for me as a replacement for my A50's.
Does anyone have a recommended EQ setting for this headset? I know nothing about the EQ and none of the presents work for me. Really need help if you guys can help me out thanks
These look like the 7X with more battery life, minus xbox compatibility. I went with the Xbox 7X, since it will work with my PS5 too. Found a deal on them for 55 bucks.
Dude you're awesome! Reviewing exactly what matters in a headphone, and getting straight to the point. Bought the SteelSeries Arctis 7+ after watching all your reviews on the series and I gotta say, they indeed are STINKIN' COZY! Loving them. Was deciding between those and the Corsair HS80. Gotta say, no regrets here. Keep it up man!
I'm thinking about getting the Arctis 7+ but I couldn't find any reviews for it. This is the closest one I get tho it's the PS version. I wanna ask if you are experiencing the same issue of the weak bass?
I've always found the highs and the mids of any Arctis headset I've owned to be muffled and I was always baffled that people praised their sound. Apparently I was one of the few that didn't artificially removed the bass.
As long as they keep insisting on not having adjustable hinges on their headphones, they are not for me. The Arctis Pro Wireless were amazing feature wise, but I literally couldn't fit them on my head, even after buying larger earpads.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for getting straight to the point!!! I truly appreciated that. Stuck around for the rest of the video as a result of the honest feedback right up front!
Sir, when you say you don’t wanna fluff the algorithm I believe it - you’re the first person I’ve seen that drops an intro with the essentials like ‘yup, that’s what you need to know if that’s all you came here for’ instead of dragging it out to make people watch the whole thing.
I bought the steel series 7P for my ps4 after listening to you back two weeks ago and I’m pretty dang happy with them! But you start asking over 150 $ for a set of headphones it needs to be noticeably different than the past headphones you did sell for $150! I charge my headset after the light in the headset has been yellow for two days, an extra 4-6 hours battery life couldn’t mean less to me lol. Make the eq adjustable with older software on the macs and windows and them we will talk ;).
I believe the 7p+ would be the way to go. All new tech is heading that way and one of the biggest things for me is (correct me if I’m wrong) to use this headset wirelessly on switch.
Love your reviews. Appreciate you giving the basic info upfront. Watched all the way through anyhow. Had to review to help anyway I could to show my appreciation.
I ordered the blackshark v2 pros and Hyperx alpha wireless and both were decent sounding. I would say the Hyperx were better overall but both of their wireless dongles conflicted badly with my wireless internet connection. The Hyperx being noticeably worse. I bought these to compare the two and first off the comfort on these are so much better than the former headsets. Mid clarity for footsteps on competitive gaming were much better. I would say the bass is slightly lacking but they have the ps5 3D audio and if your using these for likes of warzone/ rainbow 6 siege. These are the headphones. Also the dongle does not effect my wireless connection. Overall very happy and would definitely recommend them.
Why is no one talking about how steel series doesn’t have customer support and how come they haven’t responded to their wireless headset dongle’s malfunctioning?
I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone highlight differences within the first five minutes. Really cool that you did that! I didn’t need to watch the whole video but I did bc of that. Very considerate ❤ also I’m tryna decide on this headset or the stealth 700 turtle beach. Tough choice. I’m gonna see if you have a video on that one too lol
@@BabysitterSky Well yeah. It's designed for PS5, and the DualSense uses USB C like every other modern bit of kit today. Them chucking a Micro USB port on it means you have to have a Micro USB cable around and plugged into your console. Should have been USB C from the start so you use one cable for controller and headset.
@@highmm2696 it's literally the exact same headset for 20 bucks more and the only change is the charging type. Doesn't seem worth it to me but to each their own.
I'm from Brazil and finally found someone to bring me a pair of these to replace my wired Arctis 5. These are incredibly expensive around here. More than R$2.000 They arrived today. I'm very excited to test them. Your reviews have helped me to choose this model. Shout out all the way from Brazil.
I'm glad you mentioned the lack of bass! I watched a number of reviews including yours of the arctis 7x and heard so much about how they sounded so great and the bass was so natural. I bought them and returned them soon after because they didn't have any bass. Many people on message boards agreed too. The headset was very comfortable, but they didn't have any bass. I tried them with sea of thieves and they didn't have any punch when I fired the cannons. Same when shooting the shotgun in halo. Very disappointing bass. I hope more reviewers mention the lack of bass so steelseries will address it when they release new headphones.
@@z3ro7o the bass is VERY weak. I don't know how much eq will help. The bass is a frequent complaint I see about this headset and I agree from my time with them
@@JodyAncar i just openend one up. And the sounds is really weak yes. Not full at all. I tried different set ups. My super old turle beach sound better
@@z3ro7o I heard that about the sound too. It could have been stronger when I used it, but I also wouldn't have had it much louder because I wouldn't want to risk damaging my hearing. But, judging where the dial was in respect to the sound, it was closer to being fully on than mute and it wasn't blasting. I hope steelseries improves their sound because the headset was very comfortable. I would like for them to improve the sound as we discussed, but I'm not sure I'll hold my breath because so many people praise it which is why I gave it a shot. I'd also like for them and all headset manufacturers to allow you to adjust the eq on a console. A few other things too such as USB c and Bluetooth and others. We'll see. I just wish I knew when the next generation of headsets were going to come out. I just fairly recently became interested in purchasing one, but it seems like they don't release much information and the headsets just appear when they're ready
I had the Arctis 9 wireless headset but the mute/unmute button broke on me. I’m not really sure why but it happened when I went to mute my mic. I literally had to hold the button down for it to unmute and for me to talk to my friends lol. I went ahead and ordered the Arctis 7P+ because the Arctis 7P is currently sold out. I can’t wait to receive them. I ended up getting the 7P+ for $158! I love how you got straight to the point and knew everything about the headset you were reviewing. Great video! :D
Man I really wished they changed the Dongle! The big ass dongle would still block the 2nd front usb port for the PS5 lol. Love the quick charge and USB-C change though!
Awesome video! I needed a mic for my PS5 and been doing research on the 7p+. After seeing your video with hours of research I went ahead and bought these bad boyz. Now just waiting for Amazon to drop them off. 😃👍
I ordered the 7p + headphones for my ps5 but there is a noise in the background when I speak and if I increase the microphone too much there is an echo, Any ideas ?
Thanks for these awesome reviews! Do you prefer to turn off 3D audio on the PS5 when playing games like call of duty? Ive been hearing mixed messages about it being better when off when using headsets.
I've used the Astro A40 TR headset for 3 years and I thought they were great until I decided to buy the SteelSeries Artics 7P+ because I heard it's one of the "best" wireless headsets for the PS5 and they took over Astro. Not saying the Astros are bad i still own them but if you are looking for great sound quality wireless with the great price point these are worth it!
Fantastic video! I know it’s been a while since the upload but would you ever consider doing a review on the new 7+ too? I’m looking into them and really enjoy/trust your reviews :)
Just bought this at GameStop for $109! Then had a 10percent sale that took it to $98. No idea how, I looked everywhere else and it was $150 plus. GameStop randomly had it at that price and there stuff is always ridiculous.
@@averyrosario466 Best headset I’ve owned for gaming purposes.. I mainly play FPS games (Warzone mainly) and the EQ setting adjustments that you can make in the engine app takes it to another level.. Can hear footsteps from a mile away, it’s amazing!
This is so interesting. I feel like they could have and should have just released the 7P+ why did they even bother with the 7P? There is no new tech in the 7P+ so why didn't they just make it that originally? I'd say yes $20 more is worth it if I didn't already have the 7P I'd choose that with it's small upgrades
Appreciate a well done review! first time watcher and instant subscriber :) the 7P plus will be my first steel series and I'm excited! the only thing I missed review-wise as a fellow wearer of glasses, are the headphones still comfortable after a session or so? maybe you don't game with your glasses on, but it would be a good addition to your reviews since it’s often an (individual) dealbreaker :)
I’m about to purchase my first proper headset and need some help deciding. I’m stuck between corsair hs80 or steelseries 7p. Max budget is £140 so if there are any other suggestions please let me know. I am edging towards corsair hs80 but need some reassurance I’m making the right decision as it’s a lot of money for me
Just loving your content!!! Someone asked something similar in the comments, but would you be down to do a vid of best wired and wireless headsets based on game genre? I'm personally more of the story driven, 3rd person-style gamer you mentioned, and I'd love to know what you recommend for that warmer, more intense sound.
Completely agree on bass on the steel series. I went from rig 700hx to steel series arctis 9x and although the sound is more accurate but I miss the bass from the rigs and for whatever reason my rigs had more consistent connectivity. My SS seems to have a delay with initial connection and but I do really like them
Hello :) Wow, I think that this clear message has just helped me to finally decide which headsets to go with. After so many reviews, watching The Techne a lot, back and forth, I think this is my answer. I found the RIG some time ago, never heard of them before, but I like how they look like, references are promising, they are wireless (just without blue-tooth), should have immersive sound. Plus I am also after high quality bass (not like destroying ears and head, hehe). And they are certified by Gaming awards, which enhances my feeling about them. Thank you very much!!
Can you adjust the volume of the party chat on the headset? For instances say I'm in a party with 3 other people and one guy has 2 kids screaming in the background can I turn the volume down for the party without the game volume turning down.. thanks in advance
I’m getting these for Christmas and although I totally get your complaints, I don’t think I’ll notice anything you’re talking about with the bass and immersion. My current headset is extremely cheap and uncomfortable, so these are gonna be a huge step up in every way possible. Plus they’re not that expensive for a high-end gaming headset that goes perfectly with the ps5
Thanks for this review, this headset looks amazing! Would you recommend this one for playing mostly in solo games, even though I have a Bose QC35 II? I'm playing on PC and probably PS5 in the future!
Great reviews buddy, I just wanted to ask do you think the Razer Kaira for PlayStation is better or this one? For competitive games like Rainbow Six Siege? I already got Razer Kaira but I can still refund it and get this one.
Can you please test out if this works on the xbox, or if you have the normal 7+ (The one that I want) if that ones also works on the xbox one/series x. I really like the headset, I just don't know if it would work with my xbox at all, that would suck if it doesn't. Many people say it doesn't, but I just don't know if they tested it or not.
My tritton Kama headset broke recently and they don’t seem to sell them anymore so I’m looking at steelseries cos that’s what my friends have. I was thinking of getting the arctis 1 cos it’s cheaper but with Black Friday coming up I could get the 7p for cheaper. So do u think I should get the arctis 1 for £36 or spend a bit more and get the 7p for £116. I’ve never used either of them so I don’t know how they compare and if it’s worth spending the extra money?
I'm definitely considering these. My current headset is an mpow and it's great besides the mic was bad on 2 now that I've had. Cuts out every few seconds.
What PS5 gaming headset would you recommend for playing VR and single player immersive games? I’m looking for something that will sound good with music too
These would be my first more expensive headphones if I get them. Think they're suitable for a first timer? And do they have good mic quality for streaming?
Now I have a hyperx cloud flight, and I'm considering the arctis 7p+. What you think about this "upgrade"? I would buy the arctic's pro wireless, but can't find it anywhere. Witch headsets would you recommend for an upgrade?
my guys been using the artis 3 headset for a while now got it because of your videos on them. Also cus i heard u saying steelseries are your go to and daily driver too

With the Arctis Pro Wireless you can adjust Audio for all types of games but yes the lower end ones you don't get that much flexibility.
You can adjust the sound on these via the app
Appreciate a well done review! first time watcher and instant subscriber :) the 7P plus will be my first steel series and I'm excited!
the only thing I missed review-wise as a fellow wearer of glasses, are the headphones still comfortable after a session or so?
maybe you don't game with your glasses on, but it would be a good addition to your reviews since it’s often an (individual) dealbreaker :)
I’m about to purchase my first proper headset and need some help deciding. I’m stuck between corsair hs80 or steelseries 7p. Max budget is £140 so if there are any other suggestions please let me know. I am edging towards corsair hs80 but need some reassurance I’m making the right decision as it’s a lot of money for me
Don't play games or have a PC. Will this be good to watch movies on surround sound on samsung Tablet
Just loving your content!!! Someone asked something similar in the comments, but would you be down to do a vid of best wired and wireless headsets based on game genre? I'm personally more of the story driven, 3rd person-style gamer you mentioned, and I'd love to know what you recommend for that warmer, more intense sound.
yeah, I have had that in the plans I just need to get to it, hopefully soon
@@TheTechne That just made my day!!! Good luck with it, and keep up the awesome work!
Completely agree on bass on the steel series. I went from rig 700hx to steel series arctis 9x and although the sound is more accurate but I miss the bass from the rigs and for whatever reason my rigs had more consistent connectivity. My SS seems to have a delay with initial connection and but I do really like them
do you reccomend the artics or the rig
Same, missing the base on Steelseries headsets
Hello :) Wow, I think that this clear message has just helped me to finally decide which headsets to go with. After so many reviews, watching The Techne a lot, back and forth, I think this is my answer. I found the RIG some time ago, never heard of them before, but I like how they look like, references are promising, they are wireless (just without blue-tooth), should have immersive sound. Plus I am also after high quality bass (not like destroying ears and head, hehe). And they are certified by Gaming awards, which enhances my feeling about them.
Thank you very much!!
Hey, I love your reviews, would love to see one on the Tygr 300R I got one and I'm loving it so far.
Can you adjust the volume of the party chat on the headset? For instances say I'm in a party with 3 other people and one guy has 2 kids screaming in the background can I turn the volume down for the party without the game volume turning down.. thanks in advance
I’m getting these for Christmas and although I totally get your complaints, I don’t think I’ll notice anything you’re talking about with the bass and immersion. My current headset is extremely cheap and uncomfortable, so these are gonna be a huge step up in every way possible. Plus they’re not that expensive for a high-end gaming headset that goes perfectly with the ps5
when do you think there will be updates to Xbox headsets? the lack of usb-c on the 9x is kinda holding me back from buying them.
Managed to snag them for £120 , I was using a pair of Astros wired they were around £60 2 years ago, excited for the upgrade
Can i use it in the XSX?
What you said about the sound not being right for story games was really helpful. Do you have a different reccomendation for that type of gameplay?
Thank you for being the realest reviewer on RUclips!!
thank you for the support!
Excellent video as always, keep up the good work my friend.
Thanks for this review, this headset looks amazing! Would you recommend this one for playing mostly in solo games, even though I have a Bose QC35 II? I'm playing on PC and probably PS5 in the future!
I'm torn between these or the corsair HS80 ?
From your own experience. Is the pro wireless better than the 7p+ on the ps5?
I can get a pair of 7p+ for 109 dollars, is it worth it?
I currently have the 7 but may consider upgrading once the black 7P+ is available
Are these better than the 7+?
Great reviews buddy, I just wanted to ask do you think the Razer Kaira for PlayStation is better or this one? For competitive games like Rainbow Six Siege? I already got Razer Kaira but I can still refund it and get this one.
Can you please test out if this works on the xbox, or if you have the normal 7+ (The one that I want) if that ones also works on the xbox one/series x. I really like the headset, I just don't know if it would work with my xbox at all, that would suck if it doesn't. Many people say it doesn't, but I just don't know if they tested it or not.
thanks for the video just bought a set of these for £100 keep up the helpful content 😀 👍
Currently debating this or the p base model vs hyperx cloud 2 vs hyperx flight. Watched your reviews on each of them, feels like a close call
love the review and how you talk !
My tritton Kama headset broke recently and they don’t seem to sell them anymore so I’m looking at steelseries cos that’s what my friends have. I was thinking of getting the arctis 1 cos it’s cheaper but with Black Friday coming up I could get the 7p for cheaper. So do u think I should get the arctis 1 for £36 or spend a bit more and get the 7p for £116. I’ve never used either of them so I don’t know how they compare and if it’s worth spending the extra money?
I'm definitely considering these. My current headset is an mpow and it's great besides the mic was bad on 2 now that I've had. Cuts out every few seconds.
I hear you on the bass for the 7P and 7P +. I have both and it does the same for me no matter how I tweak it.
Really good review
What PS5 gaming headset would you recommend for playing VR and single player immersive games? I’m looking for something that will sound good with music too
Yo this is a great review ! Bought one right after seeing this.
These would be my first more expensive headphones if I get them. Think they're suitable for a first timer? And do they have good mic quality for streaming?
This or Sony INZONE H7?
I'm looking at 7P+ or cloud 2 wireless. Which would be better? I know arctis has smaller drivers but does it make a difference?
Great review mate incredibly useful 👍
Now I have a hyperx cloud flight, and I'm considering the arctis 7p+.
What you think about this "upgrade"?
I would buy the arctic's pro wireless, but can't find it anywhere.
Witch headsets would you recommend for an upgrade?
my guys been using the artis 3 headset for a while now got it because of your videos on them. Also cus i heard u saying steelseries are your go to and daily driver too
