The Arctis Nova 7 is a good wireless headset.
- Good sound
- Comfortable headset
- Top quality microphone
- Ear pads on the small side
I think the Arctis Nova 7 is a very nice wireless headset. The sound sounds really nice thanks to the Virtual Surround Sound. But especially the microphone is top quality, I sounded really clear according to my friends. The ear cups are small and made of fabric, so you feel the fabric more than leather ear cups.
The installation and the sound When I took the Arctis Nova 7 out of the box, I came across a lot of accessories for pairing the headset. The easiest way is via the usb C dongle, I plugged it into my PlayStation 5 and I could get started wirelessly right away. The Arctis Nova 7 can also be connected to a console via bluetooth, this also works very simply. If wireless does not work, the Nova 7 can also be connected wired. In terms of sound, the Arctis Nova 7 is really more than fine. During a multiplayer game like Fortnite or Call of Duty, I could hear exactly where shots and enemies were coming from, even if they were overhead.
Sturdy and comfortable headset The Arctis Nova 7 has fabric ear cups and a metal headband. The headset is sturdy and fits really well. However, the ear cups are quite narrow, so they pinched my ears during longer gaming sessions. I also find leather ear cups a bit more pleasant than fabrics, because leather ear cups close better and you feel the material less. Fabric ear cups ventilate a lot better than leather ear cups, so if you quickly get warm ears, fabric is nice.
Top quality microphone The microphone of the Arctis Nova 7 is really very good. This was already the case with the Arctis Nova 3, so this plus was no surprise. I was super easy to understand for my friends and I even recorded a podcast with it. A good microphone is very nice, especially if you play a lot online with your friends. The communication between your friends during a game of Call of Duty is completely fine with the Arctis Nova 7.

Only buy it if you want to use it on a PC or console
- No problem on PC
- Creaks terribly when you connect it with chromecast
I used these headphones on my pc then no problem at all until I wanted to connect them to my chromecast, took a while to get connected but after that the sound was terrible and totally unbearable. Tried overnight and still the same result. Returned immediately
