Great review by the way!
Thank you. I honestly don't even know how to do time stamps lol
@@TelesplashGaming no problem man, I just have some spare time on my hand so I thought I'll make it easier for people who look for something specific :)
The $40 mic at the end sounded the best lol
@@jblove53 Haha it really did
@@jblove53 try to use it as a headset then 😂
It's refreshing to see product reviewed like this just a dude reviewing with no mambo jumbo
That's exactly how I like my reviews. Most gamers are just gamers. I don't Need all the fancy specs. Thanks for leaving a comment and watching the video.
@@TelesplashGaming You mentioned that the SteelSeries Arctis 7X works on the Xbox Series X and the PS5 which sounds great since I plan to buy both systems. I tried finding the 7x on Amazon but it wasn't there. A SteelSeries Arctis 9X did show up on Amazon. Do you know if the 9x also works for Xbox Series X and PS5? And do you know any differences between the 7x and the 9x?
Also, do you plan to do a comparison video of gaming headsets that work with both next gen consoles? The Arctis 7x is the first one that I heard works with both consoles. Are there any others or is this my only option?
Thanks.
You know how to catch'em Chris. Another great product review dude.
Thanks Mike. I definitely get lucky once or twice a year.
Bro you actually respond to the viewers I love that
Thank you. I think it's important to respond to people who show up to your channel and watch your content. It's not that hard to leave a 15 second response. I think most RUclipsrs should respect their audience a little more. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Finally!! You're like the first person that's done a comparison and o solute you for this. Thank you and I think I've solidly made my mind up and getting the 7P now 👍👍
Yes!!!! I love hearing this. I'm just a gamer who wants other gamers to know which one to choose. When I have questions, I look for RUclips videos!!!! Thanks for watching.
@@TelesplashGaming Same! Especially when it comes to gaming headsets, I run straight to RUclips. Like so many has echoed, I must say you've helped me a great deal! Thank you!
@@genefactor007 No problem at all. Thanks for watching and hanging out.
Do you like the arctis
@@bellamccall6337 yeah absolutely love it
What a great review bro! So good to listen to someone who breaks things down so well. You covered all the bases in what is a super informative, succinct and ultra helpful vid. Great work. Thank you. 👌🙏🏻
Thank you so much Sugar Ray. Much love my friend. I'm glad this video helped
It's really cool that you take the time and effort to respond back to nearly everyone! I got the Pulse, but haven't had a chance to really try them out yet cuz my PS5 is still downloading games on my crappy internet. I had the Arctis 1 Wireless before, hopefully this is better. I wish there was a type C port on the 7X though. Then I might consider it.
Oh thanks for the compliment. If I get too busy to respond to people who give me the courtesy of watching my videos, then I'm doing something wrong. The pulse 3d sounds great. The mic is the only thing that seems a little off. But I think it definitely gets the job done
I was looking into picking these up but had no idea in terms of how they compare to each other. Now I'm much better informed.
Thanks for the solid review. Just subbed!
Hey, thank you. Much appreciated and I'm glad this review helped you out. Thanks for popping in and hanging out.
Great review and really informative mate! You've helped me decide on the Pulse 3D. I really liked the sound of the mic on it. Also love the look of it too.
Both are great and we're splitting hairs in everything. Both would be great if I only got 1.
Friggin great review. Right to the point. Editing was kind of distracting but I'm subbing. Great stuff.
Thanks Killbro. The editions bad. After I edited everything, the audio decided to start popping. I was at the point of no return haha. Thanks for the sub and I'm glad you liked it.
Thanks for this review. I was contemplating the purchase and you convinced me!
Thank you for watching and I'm glad it helped.
I absolutely love this review, it's the 1st that's made me feel like it was completely honest, thanx 👍🏽
Hey Elric, thanks a ton. I just happened to buy them both at the right time and figured I'd discuss them. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Come back and visit soon.
I usually base my opinion on the pssss pssss bumf bumf noises you made.... Great review mate
Good thing I included those. Now you can rest assured
Audio engineer here. You nailed it! Loved the video
Thanks Landon. You know a lot more than I do, but hopefully I got the important stuff knocked out.
Great review! I've been using the old PS Gold wireless headset for over 5 years. I picked up the Arctis 7P today.
Let me know what you think. I'm loving mine
Thnx for the comparison. Very detailed and straightforward review. Keep up the good work.
Much appreciated. Thank you
honestly i think im getting the pulse 3d headset because of the price, the extra $50 can go towards a game for my ps5
I understand. I like the Arctis better, but the Pulse is still a great headset. As long as you think they are comfortable, the audio is great.
For some reason, the steelseries costs 4x as much as the pulse 3d in my country.
@@gumed85 probably because they are sold out at all the retailers, people on amazon jack up the price
@@leakedmusicplug769 at Amazon.com.br : Pulse 3D 600 R$, Steelseries artic5 2.000 R$. Cannot even find the artic 7.
@@gumed85 damn rip
Amazing review man! Will you be doing an update when the PS5 comes out to see if there are any changes?
Hey Adam. I'm hoping to for sure, but my PS5 is a week delayed, so other reviewers might have theirs up. I am however going to do another mic test with these headsets tomorrow. Wired and wireless for both. I've heard the Pulse 3D loses clarity over wireless. I'll find out.
Thanks for the review man! Sold me on the steel. Mic check took it home for me
Appreciate it man
Thank you for watching. Much appreciated. Glad it helped.
Thanks very much for your review. I found it very useful to have a no nonsense comparison
Thanks Tom. Much appreciated.
I love this...sometimes i just want to know which is better from a human, not from numbers i don't even understand. Great job!
Thank you!!!! Much appreciated
Coming from a playstation gold and a platinum headset, I went with the arctis. After many hours of headset migraines, the comfort of the arctis 7p was a game changer. I do not like the micro usb charger or the lack of chatmix, but it's not that big of a deal. Great review! Subscribed!
Thank you. I love hearing someone using the same headset as me and then getting an upgrade and feeling the same way. The 7x/ 7P are a huge comfort upgrade. I wish it used USB C as well. The chat mix isn't as important to me either. I feel like the PS5 is gonna be so fast, that a quick menu screen will be easy to access if I need it.
I agree 100 percent. Keep up the great content!
The lack of chat mix for me is ridiculous. Even more annoying in that the 7x has it but seemingly won't work on the PS5
@@lewijono definitely annoying.
@@TelesplashGaming i just don't understand why they have added the setting to hear yourself on the 7p. It's so stupid and pointless. Really annoyed as well I can't use my Astro A40's on the PS5. Great review though enjoyed it.
Just found this review, and this channel. Im very impressed by the review. Keep up the good work bro. Instant sub
Thank you Evan. Definitely appreciate it.
wow what an underrated channel... high quality video and straight to the point... keep up the good work dude!!
Thanks Spencer, much appreciated . I try my best. Definitely had some edited miscues, but I'm getting better. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
👏👏👏
Awesome video, don't mind the audio.
Thanks Linda, it was weird. It only happened at the end after I was done editing. As you know, there's no going back after that.
I bought the steelseries 7p as soon as they confirmed it would work with the tempest 3d audio thing from ps5. The main advantage I would notice from other headsets, is the materials they use on the steelseries, I’ve had plastic headsets in the past, and they are miles bellow quality as compared to the steelseries.
Definitely. The SteelSeries feels very well made and it's insanely comfortable. I'm glad you picked a set up.
Steelseries are more expensive tho
@@taquavion1504 It's worth the extra $50

I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for watching!!!
Before watching this video I was thinking about Pulse 3D has worse mic than 7X/P but in my opinion is better. Thank you so much for your comparison, thumbs up for you.
You are welcome. I'm glad it could help.
I love how relatable this comparison is to real life consumers!
I chose the PlayStation ones cause the differences didn’t justify the extra 50$
IMO
Thank you. Makes sense. Both are great headsets and I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
Also the pulse 3D now has eq settings, which makes a noticeable difference like more bass and not flat sounding.
@@hadivazifehdan5596 fortunately the Artics do to
i got the Pulse 3D for Christmas and i haven’t been able to try it out because i’m waiting for my PS5 to arrive and i wanted to see what it sounded like. thank u!
You are welcome and it's a great headset. I know people want to draw a line in the sand and pick one and say it's way better, but each are impressive for the price point.
That’s insane, first time watching you and a great review. I really like that you take your time to reply on most of these comments too! With the type of video you did, I thought you had atleast a few mil subs. Very impressed
Ahh thanks a ton. I dedicate some things to work on editing wise, but I'm trying. Much appreciated for the comment. Welcome to the channel.
Update!!!! These work amazingly well on the PS5 and the Arctis 100% utilizes the tempest audio technology.. I still recommend Arctis even on PS5.......I apologize for the Audio blips and the autofocus issue. By the time I realized it, it was way too late to re edit everything. I forgot to manual focus my camera and the audio thing was just my editor being weird. Anyways, which headset are you liking more?l
They're both great choices for next gen!
@@Kanuk97 Exactly. These are the top 2 in my opinion.
Wrong showdown. If you should do a propper showdown it should be with Arctis 1 👍🏻
@@BA3YDADDY These are the 2 newest for next gen, So I wanted to get the latest and greatest out of the way. Also, the Arctis 1 is ok, but it's a lower end headset compared to these 2.
@@TelesplashGaming What you want to do is to make a showdown of the 2 main console headsets.
The new Arctis 1 Xbox edition is newer the the Arctis 7 u are using and the new Arctis 1 Xbox edition is the one Microsoft is promoding for the next gen Xbox.
You can also go Arctis 9x 👍🏻 if you really wanna push the battle.
And ofcouce om Xbox set it on Atmos or DTS X.
Sony's Tempest Sound engine is not Better then Atmos or DTS Headsphones X. It's the same.
But thats my take on it. Why i am saying this is because this showdown makes No sence to me.
But thx for the video anyway.
My lord the mic on the pulse will definitely pick up background sound and that’s the main reason I can’t wait to replace mine. I hate the dual mic ideas that ain’t been doing with these, just get a damn extended mic. The quality feels cheaper than $100. It’s definitely a temporary headset until more companies actually make some headsets for the next gen. Good review 🙏
Thank you. My Arctis has been great over the last 2 weeks. Definitely happy with it.
@@TelesplashGaming both headset overall are good but of course it’s the beginning of the next gen and we will for sure see more headset down the road
I was undecided between the steels series or the turtle beach and doing some research I came across your channel and thanks to you I made my decision you got a sub!!!
Heck ya. Thanks a ton
Great review, very in depth!
I have the Pulse headset and I'm pleased with it.
Hey thank you. I'm glad you are enjoying it
These camera angles killing me.
Get a friend to zoom in on the headsets while you wiggle them in front of you 😭👏
Great reviews tho. I Needed the "Vs" for the PS5 Headset.
I knew the Sony PS Headsets still feels cheap and the headband not good and have bad sound if the settings are messed up.
But of course sound design also matters on the game itself.
Ooh, ooh... The microphone on the PS Headsets tho...
I forgot that it used 2 Mics on either side... LOL
9/10 If you want good chat mic😭😭😭💀
My editing was trash in this one. Usually it's not so bad, but the cuts and b roll were Meh. Glad you like the review at least.
wow the built in mic on Sony headset sounds great. i was actually surprised. For $100 if you can find it, seems like one hell of a deal.
Wireless it sounds quite different. I did a new test on a recent video
I think I'm going to go for the 7X! This is a great video, just what I needed, thanks. Subscribed
No problem JoeMamma...I'm glad it helped and welcome to the channel.
i was fortunate enough to have pre ordered both - and are scheduled to come in on time
My PS5 is delayed about a week. Hopefully it shows up earlier than expected.
@@TelesplashGaming ahhh bummer.. well a week isn't too bad.. the only thing I hate is that my series-x is 50 miles away but fed ex notes say.. dont delivery until date requested..😖
Getting the 7X. I’m tired of using two headsets for the two consoles. More expensive but it looks more comfortable and is universal so they’re getting my money
I'm in the same boat. This thing makes it easy to switch from console to console.
@@TelesplashGaming so do they both work with both Series X and PS5? I also just want to get one for both consoles. Please let me know if the Pulse also works with the Series X. Thank you.
@@amandoruiz278 It won't work wirelessly, but it will work plugged in. If you want wireless, go with the Arxtis 7X
I bought the new ps headset yesterday and I was going to do the same thing. I tested it on my new Series S and it was shoddy at best. I ended up returning them. I tried it on my PS4 pro to make sure it wasn’t the headset and the headset worked fine for the PS4.
@@zachyheidi080401 Arctis 7X works great on both.
Great review, convinced me to get the Arctis (comfortableness is half the selling point in my opinion). Thanks!
You're welcome. Thank you for watching.
Just came across your vid brilliant review i was not sure which one to get now I've decided to get the steelseries because of your review so thanks man
Thanks a ton and I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm really loving the Steelseries. It's definitely a great mic.
Awesome video man, I am always wondering which headset to get and end up spending hours on research! This video does a great job showing the benefits of each set. I think I may save up and get the Arctis later! Who does not want to get their hands on a nice set of cups!
Thanks Captain. The Arctis is a great headset. Definitely worth the money.
Wanted the pulse 3d for the matching set reason, but that said quality means more to me. Knowing its good tho, I'm buying it. Thanks 😊
No problem. Thanks for watching.
Good luck find a pulse 3D

U should find 7P
You can buy the Steelseries Arctis 7P for PS5, its White...
I actually switched from Steelseries on PS4 to the Pulse 3D for PS5. Because based off this review I think with PS5 with games that use tempest the Pulse 3D will take the cake.
Ya it will be interesting. The SteelSeries is supposed to take advantage of the PS5 3d technology as well.
Tempest 3d will work on any headset same as dolby atmos it is built into the PS5 itself.
@@bohrak Yep.
Thanks for the review. Very helpful in my decision.
Glad it was helpful! Sorry ut took so long to respond. Your comment went into an odd folder in my youtube channel.
First time here, a great review and I'm clear on which I want, I thought the pulse 3d sounded quieter but cleaner IMO. Subbed!

GameStop mic sounded way better than all of the other ones
It's not wireless though. Plugged in, they all sound a little better.

@@laurabrown2014 Interesting
Would this headset support the tempest 3D audio on the ps5? And if so are both the pulse 3D and articseries 7p the only headsets to support 3D audio? (Are there any more headsets that support 3D audio?) Thanks
They both support it and other headsets are definitely going to be compatible with the new 3d audio in the PS5. You'd have to Google your mic and see if it supports it.
Nice and thorough review, thanks!
Thank you for watching
Absolutely brilliant review mate thank you
Thank you Callum!!!! Much appreciated
The GameStop mic sounded the best by far when connected to the phone. It was much more natural.
It really does. It's a solid mic and headset.
@@TelesplashGaming But $50 better?
Yes because it’s wired
@@BrianEmpa It definitely makes a difference.
@@BrianEmpa 3 of the 4 are wired. Only the Arctis was wireless.
From my end the 3d pulse sounded natural, where the steel was likely too close, amping undesired sounds. Actually the cheap ones sounded best to me, but i doubt a test like this is going to be reliable. Too many unknown variables. At least with mic test for us. They sounded totally diff, but like he commented, likely identical in use.
I did another mic test with multiple programs and wired vs wireless. You'll have to check it out.
Subbed! I like you. You’re a gamer and not a tech snob. Not annoying and trying to push something on us. Thank you for this review I’ll keep an eye on this channel!
Thank you so much. I have 1 more video on this because the mic changes. So I'll have a mic comparison video with 3 different samples. Then it's back to gaming videos
Amazing content!! Time stamps would be a great addition to you videos!
Thank you Gyma. I probably need to figure time stamps out and put those in. Thank you for watching.
The Pulse 3D headset was designed to fit over the PSVR. I’m wondering how well the steelseries works with it
This is definitely 1 thing the pulse 3d has going for it over any other headset.
It’s not
@@CharlieBrown-zr9wk well, that solves it
I think the Steelseries will work for the PSVR quite well, based on what their customer service told me 😅
@@_Game-Box_ Well that's interesting. Maybe it does work then
How would the steel series fit with PSVR? It seems like some design consideration was put in to the Pulse for that purpose. Thanks
I don't think it fits that well, but I haven't tested it. Pulse is tailor made for PSVR
Great comparison video, hope to see more soon. Good honest opinions.
Thank you. Much appreciated
@@TelesplashGaming absolutely mate, checked out a couple of vids. Keep up the fun vids.
Awesome video. Thanks for this. I was going to get the 7X from what my friend told me about it. He likes it, but now that I know the Chat/Game adjuster doesn't work, it's off the table. Maybe I'll get the 7P though or just go with the 3D Pulse. Suppose if I randomly see one in store it'll probably win. If I have to order online, who knows. As for the consoles, I'm getting both the XSX and the PS5.
When he put the phone up to the camera and was listening to Magna Carta holy grail that’s when I knew I had to subscribe 😂😂
Hahahah. Thanks. Much appreciated.
Not being able to change the volume levels on chat vs gameplay on the steel series is a dealbreaker. Especially if I have to pay more money to not have that functionality. I’ll be getting the Pulse 3D instead.
If that's important, then defeat the Pulse 3D. I can see where it could definitely become an issue
Great freaking review. I miss my Astros that I gave away for my pulse 3D. I think I’m fine with the pulse now that I play games in the daytime more than night. Great Job telesplash. SHARE THIS VIDEO GET IT TO 1 mil
Thanks Tbelly. This video definitely went semi viral.
Oh wow great review man. I’ll be getting the steel series because I don’t have a good track record with the comfort of the Sonys. Also subbed, thank you for a great comparison here. 😎🤙
Thank you so much. The SteelSeries is just a better headset. Sony has a great price point and a solid product, but Arctis 7 is better.
Lmao. That last mic actually sounded pretty damn good if I’m going to be honest. 😂
Honesty, for the $25 I paid, it's a great backup headset and mic. It's a new brand at Gamestop and it's not bad at all.
You can’t even test the true features of the 3D pulse because the ps5 isn’t out yet , so do another review when you get one at launch
I'll definitely a follow up. I have a feeling the benefits of each headset will be amplified by the new audio technology. Arctis will support the new 3d audio
@@TelesplashGaming My question, and probably the deciding factor in buying them, is how much more, if at all, the Pulse headset takes advantage of the Tempest 3D audio tech, seeing as it is optimised for the PS5. If the Arctis cans are comparable, I'll probably go with them due to their superior comfort, but if there's a significant difference in how well the 3D audio plays out with the Pulse then they'll likely be my choice. Whether the whole "optimised for PS5" spiel turns out to just be marketing fluff or not will be the real test for me I think.
@@TelesplashGaming So does that mean I wont be missing out on 3D audio on the ps5 by going with the 7p? Because this is the reason why im on the fence
@@Saiko1Mania it's supposed to utilize it fully, but I guess time will tell. But, I don't think SteelSeries would make a statement without testing or truth.
@@TelesplashGaming I'm guessing the pulse 3d would slightly be better for 3D but as long as the arctis 7p have 3d id be glad. Thanks for replying. This video really did help.
Thanks, unanswered a question that I was wondering at the back fo my head for a while .Which head set is better. And for that u deserve a subscriber 🙏
Thank you so much. The Arctis is better in my opinion, but both are gonna be great. Not a bad choice here.
Good review my dude! I went with the 7p loving them so far, I had the Astro A50s and didn’t want to get that splitter so these were a good replacement.
The 7P is so good. I look forward to hearing them take advantage of the latest Audio from the PS5. Thanks for watching.
Help me out man do you use the 7ps on console or pc
I have the 7p’s too but to me they seem to muffled like the lows just seem low i don’t want to crank up the volume all the way up to be pleased with the sound.
@@bruins871 I'm using On a PS5 and it's not quiet for me.
I just myself a pair of the steeleseries so Im gonna wait some time to see how they break in but I think an updated video about how the pulse 3d headsets break in after a month or so would be nice to see if I should get another steeleseries headset or the pulse 3d for my brother. Just found your video recommended and I love the way just a natural gamer reviews it instead of playing it by numbers keep up the great work👍🏻
Hey thank you Leonardo. The pulse 3d is a good headset for sure, but I think you are really gonna love that SteelSeries. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
I returned the Pulse 3D and went with the 7X. Waiting for it to be delivered right now. But main reason was because after a while my scalp and ears both hurt from using the pulse. The rubber band you mentioned definitely got more and more uncomfortable over time. I also felt that the bass muffled other sounds too much.
Other reason was battery life. I did not get even close to 12 hours on a full charge. More like 9. The 7X on the other hand has a 24 hour battery life. If in real use it has even just twice, like 18 hours, that's a big selling point for me. Having to charge every couple times sucks. I found the code OWNZ to use on steel series website for a 12% discount. No idea where it's from but worth knowing.
That's some great input. The rubber band definitely made me wonder if it was gonna work for extended gaming sessions. The battery is definitely another good point. I'm glad you were able to grab the Steelseries.
Yeah agree about the shit battery on the Sony ones, thinking about buying the steel series 7x because i have a series s now as well as ps5
Great review man. Thank you. I have the turtle beach 520’s had them for years. Big thing for me is the game/chat audio function. It’s so useful when you can decide how loud or quiet you want other people’s mics to sound instead of going in to the games settings and messing with it that way and it’s a shame the ps5 doesn’t allow it to work on the older headsets. Definitely getting the Pulses as it has the game/chat function.
Hey, thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Even though I like the Arctis more, the Pulse 3d is a great headset. The chat mix is a very nice feature that hope maybe Arctis can add with a firmware update or something. I think you'll love the Pulse 3d.
Already bought the 7p last week. Cheers!
Cheers! Definitely a great mic
@@TelesplashGaming I have the Pro Wireless for my PC. Steel Series makes really great headphones.
@@McLort They do for sure
Im sorry if this is a dumb question but 3D audio on ps5 confused me, I heard that ps5 will allow all headsets to do 3D audio, with that being said whats the main differences between this headset and the ps5 Pulse 3D headset in terms of like specs? (Also subscribed this video was EXACTLY what I was looking for)
You are correct about other headsets getting 3d audio. Sony has created this unique tempest audio system that is supposed to make gaming sound more immersive and 3d like. They created a headset specifically designed for it, but other headset manufacturers have also made headsets that will take full advantage of this new audio. This headset has a 24 hour battery life and the Sony Pulse 3d has 12. The Pulse 3d uses a USB c to charge and the Arctis 7x/7P uses Micro USB. They both have noise canceling mics and are comfortable. The Arctis is much more comfortable however. Both have cushioned ear xups, but the Arctis uses a fabric whereas the Pulse 3d uses a Faux leather material. They both have 3.5mm headphone jacks that can be used on anything with a 3.5mm plug in.
@@TelesplashGaming Dude thank you so much for responding so fast, legit just ordered the 7P, I slammed the fire out of the subscription button 😤😤

@@AnOnimOuZ1245 Much appreciated.
Personally the pulse mic sounds a lot better than I thought even better that the steel series
It does in this, but in my newer video I do it wirelessly and it way different. Kind of odd.
Great review man. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching
Very nice review!
Thank you
Both sound like great headsets, but the deciding factor for me is the 7X working on the Series X, PS5, Switch and PC for me.
That was honestly mine as well. I did a lot of research making sure there wasn't something I was missing, but every site says the P and X are identical, except the P doesn't work on Xbox. Unless you are absolutely never going to play a Microsoft console, the X is the way to go.
The pulse 3D is wireless on pc, switch and ps4/ps5, you would have to use the 3.5 on the series x, but it would still work
@@Lalomon yep for sure. Pretty much anything that has a 3.5mm jack can use these.
Does the pulse 3D work wireless with the switch?
Cristian Talero yeah, it’s awesome that you can even change volume with it
I think this is a great review but I think the one thing you forgot that’s pretty important is how well the microphones filter and block out outside noise.
That's definitely true. I should have put a fan next to me and found out how it does.
This man deserves 1million subs in a weak keep up your helping alot of people❤
Oh thank you so much. I wish I had that many subs haha. I'll keep trying.

Thanks so much Lunch Box Dude. Really appreciate it. I was hoping to get my PS5 early, but it's coming late. Definitely disappointed
Hey I have the turtle beach stealth 350 vr headset and I was looking into the steelseries headset should I make the change or stick to the turtle beaches?
Your Turtle Beach is a great headset. If it takes advantage of the 3d audio, I wouldn't switch yet. I don't think you'd notice enough of a difference to warrant a change. I think the newer headsets are better, but I don't think you'll be missing out yet.
I have the Arctic 7x. It’s the best headset I’ve ever had by far. The Pulse 3D seems like a cheap $30 headset with Sony branding.
The Arctis definitely has that premium feel. The Pulse 3D isn't bad by any stretch, but the Arctis 7x/p is just so much better
I've been using the Arctis 9x on my One X for about 5 months and I have to say they are nothing short of perfect!
Those are definitely the next step up. Glad you are enjoying them
@@TelesplashGaming cheers
@@s41magazine37 Cheers
compared to actual headphones and not footstep generators?
Great video I've decided to order the Arctis 7X after watching this review. Looking forward to hooking it up to my Xbox Series X and PS5 👍👍👍
It sounds amazing in next gen. Thanks for watching
@@TelesplashGaming thank you for taking the time to do these comparisons. It really helps potential buyers a lot. Take care 👍
@@mattp1680 You are welcome. Thanks for popping in.
What I like about the Pulse headset is there’s no way the mic gets buried in my beard
Haha. It's true
But it fking sounds dogshit
@@Unfled Wirelessly the Pulse 3d is not good. I did an updated video on mic tests. Really disappointing
@@TelesplashGaming yea
I like the PlayStation Pulse 3D. They are good for what they are. I had the golds as well and the pulse is way better. I haven’t use a steel series before though
There isn't a bad choice. I like Arctis better, but the Pulse are still great headphones.
Thanks for the review.
Thank you for watching
great video man.
Thank you Darius. Much appreciated
We need the updated one when you’re on the ps5!!!
I'll do my best. If there is a difference I will definitely post it.
@@TelesplashGaming of course there's a difference. You should know that. The 3d sound on these headphones is for ps5.
@@roberthood7650 I already updated my pinned comment. They both utilize the 3d audio, but since the Steelseries is better in general, it's also better with the Tempest Audio technology. But yes, it does matter to a point, but since the Steelseries is better overall, it's also better when newer technology is available.
Wow I thought u had tried these on the ps5 they are much better than the pulse of that’s the case
@@sergiocuriel4597 They audio quality is the same regardless of system. I have a PS5 and the Arctis still sounds better because it utilizes the 3D Audio. Both are good headsets though.
Bought the pulse 3d today and took it back today. Sound is so so muted on it. No bam or boom period everything flat. And on top of it all if you put the dongle behind the ps5 every time you turn your head it cuts out. The front usb works with it fine. To give you an idea of the sound its like buying a set of pc gaming headsets and putting them on and they sound dull and flat until you download the EQ software and update them and wow big difference well they sound like the before. So I took my Razer Nari from my pc hooked it up and its wonderful.If you dont believe me go to walmart buy them then when you found out how bad they sound take them back. I think the Razer Nari Essentials version thats I think 99 as well will be a lot better .
I preferred these Steelseries over the Pulse 3D. But, my son loves his Pulse headset. He doesn't know any better
@@TelesplashGaming cool lol somebody loves them there sold out everywhere but yea they stink doo doo .
Great job dude 👍
Thank you Jake
Nice ! I made a video on connecting the pulse 3D to the switch wirelessly on tabletop mode. They sound great ! Lol though I have a pair of steel series pro that I’ll probably use more. Thanks for the vid 😊
Thank you Victor!!!! I'm gonna watch your video and see how to do it. People will definitely appreciate that
That micro-usb port is a deal breaker for me. Going for the PlayStation Pulse 3D headset for the USB-C charging. Going to be weird using a pulse 3D headset on my Xbox Series S. At least the white headset fits perfectly with my white Series S.
Lol ya. I wish the charging was USB C for sure.
It doesn’t work with Xbox. Only PlayStation 4 and 5.
@@ninjadotcom9194 Yes at least wirelessly. The Pulse eD only works plugged in on an Xbox. That's why I got the Arctis 7X
@@ninjadotcom9194 I'm using it wired right now on Series S. Works perfectly fine and is a huge upgrade over my old $25 Sony earphones.
The biggest different is the equalizer software that comes with it. Sony doesn’t have an equalizer software while Steelseries you can download an equalizer software and has customized settings for the type of games you play. To me that is a game changer. The reviewer forgot to mention that part and his review is based on the default settings of the headset.
You are correct. I didn't mention it in this video because I assume most gamers are gonna plug it in and go!!!! Some will take advantage of the software, but out of the box, which one is better? Either way, Steelseries has my vote.
@@TelesplashGaming can you equalize the Steelseries inside Ps5? If not - if you equalize the steelseries on pc, will the preset transfer over to ps5?
@@Burresweden I believe so, because it basically adjusts the setting on the mic to follow whatever you play it on.
I got the arctis for my ps5 and I love it! it's great, and this review made me get it. So thanks!
No problem and I'm glad it helped you out. I've been loving my Arctis
As someone who wears glasses, and a big head, I can say the Pulse 3D clamps against my ears pushing the frame into my head and my ears into the frame. I was finally able to order the 7p today at retail price. Can't wait to get them.
Definitely a smart pick!!!! I wear glasses as well and they are very comfortable
Do you like 7p
Would the pulse 3d work with xsx? I’m just asking because I’m getting both ps5 and xsx
I believe it will only worked while plugged in. I don't think it will work wirelessly. You are better off with the Arctis 7x. It works with both.
@@TelesplashGaming Thank you, If I have it to the controllers plugged do I ever need to charge it if I’m not using it wirelessly? (For both headsets)
@@Dirtybandz It should get power by the controller. So you shouldn't need to power it on or have it charged if it's plugged in.
@@TelesplashGaming Thank you!
Battlefield and Fortnite. And I was happy when Fortnite added 3D audio because I couldn't hear which side they were to me and I enabled it because I like to hear from what I heard many years in Battlefield 4. My headset gets done with the compatibility for Xbox 1, PlayStation 4 and PC. And I don't like the mics that you have to pull out or that's built on to the side of the headset because I keep my mic piece in the box when my friends joins the lobby
Ya. There are some great mics out there, these are just 2 of the newest that are gonna get a lot of love over the next year or so. Having a good headset makes a huge difference.
I got 7 dollar earbuds and you don't know where you're getting shot from? 😂😂
@@drewywgx924 Lol
A truly amazing video!!! Just one recommendation. You gotta work on those transitions man. I noticed your audio cut when you made a couple transitions between different angles.
Hey thanks Ulisses!!! Ya those transitions are absolutely terrible. If you watch my other videos, they aren't like that. For some reason my editor decided to mess with all my transitions once I exported it and I was basically forced to let it go or go back and try to fix every cut. I took the easy way out and let the audio blips stick around. Thanks for watching and popping in. Come back and watch some other stuff sometime.
Thanks! My 7x are arriving tomorrow!
Can't wait to hear what you think
Do you like the 7x
Love them. Really convenient having a wireless headset. Great that it works with xbox and PC too
@@tom22333 thank you
I’m liking this video dude, I’ve wanted a headset with a retractable/removable mic for some time so my Arctis 7X are already on their way! 😁 Is there still the option to play wired in to the controller if that improves the mic at all for when I actually bother using it?
Yes. You can definitely plug it into the controller no problem. I'm glad you liked the video. Thanks for watching.
