Wireless gaming headset6/14/2023 ![]() ![]() The unique angular ear cups and removable suspension strap headband are a breath of fresh air, while their ultra-lightweight design and soft earpads make them comfortable to wear for long periods. There’s a lot to love here beyond the RGB. And, it is certainly worth the effort, even if it drops the headset’s battery life down from 29 hours to only 20 hours – which isn’t bad considering the competition. However, that hasn’t stopped Logitech from slapping on a total of six RGB zones on the Logitech G733 Lightspeed. RGB lighting is not common on wireless gaming headsets for a good reason: they are a massive drain on battery life. Read our full SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless review Its understated elegant design is as classy as you’ll find. If you need any other reason to consider this headset, then take a look at it. Though we were let down by that active noise cancellation, even having that on hand shows how fully-featured the Nova Pro Wireless is. It also comes with all sorts of features, such as hot-swappable batteries that can keep the action going indefinitely, multi-platform connectivity, multi-point simultaneous connectivity, a detailed and crisp-sounding mic and a base station for easy control. If you can overlook the high price tag and disappointing active noise cancellation, then it’s about as close as you’ll get. It does just about everything else right, from its detailed and immersive sound to the kind of comfort that lets you game for hours without needing to give your head a breather. There's also no audio feedback to let you know when you're selecting these features.The SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless is the perfect gaming headset. Unfortunately, there are no DTS:X or EQ preset controls directly on the headphones, so you'll need to access these features in the companion software. There are also voice prompts that you can turn on and off in the companion software. Overall, there are different chimes to let you know when you've registered some commands. There's an infinite volume wheel on the right ear cup, which has different chimes to let you know when you've reached min and max volume. If you hold this button for three seconds, you can turn on and off mic monitoring, which allows you to hear your own voice. The LED light on the mic will turn red when muted, and you'll hear a chime when muting and unmuting. There's also a mic mute button, which is slightly raised, meaning you can tell the difference between it and the power button. On the left ear cup is a power on and off button. They're very simple, and since they're designed for gaming, they lack call and music management controls, so they aren't very versatile. The HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless have sub-par controls. The scoring of the 'Battery' test has also changed. We have updated the 'Continuous Battery Life', 'Total Battery Life', and 'Charge Time'. ![]() These headphones have an outstandingly long continuous battery life that has taken several days to drain. However, if you want to reduce more noise around you, the Sony are gaming headphones with ANC. The HyperX lack noise cancelling and struggle to block out background noise. We've added a comparison between these headphones and the Sony INZONE H9 Wireless in the Noise Isolation test. You can expect to have to adjust their fit, positioning and seal on your head to get a more consistent sound. Most gaming headsets are prone to inconsistencies in frequency response and the HyperX are no different from other similarly priced headphones. We've added a comparison to the Logitech G735 Wireless in the Frequency Response Consistency test. We've also retested Sound using the default sound profile instead of the 'Balanced' EQ, which is only accessible using the app. We've received user reports regarding latency and sound issues when using the companion app, and we've updated App Support and Non-Bluetooth Wireless. Added a comparison to the Wyze Wireless Gaming Headset in the Non-Bluetooth Wirelessbox. ![]()
