For the best microphone quality possible, check that your Windows default sound format is set to the highest level that your PC can handle. Cheers!
what you mean by highest level? volume?
48000khz for mic in windows sound settings. Thank me later.
ChillyRide Will it be better lol
Thanks, I am going to buy these and I was pretty scared about the mic quality but I think its ok i guess
how should i do the setting
No you can change it to 96000khz
How can a video with this quality only have 3k subs?
what?
Sid Vallée he means the guy deserves more subs, which is SO true and that he is very professional
@@zyphen665 He's not even using acoustic foam and there is a ton of echo in the room he's recording in. Otherwise, pretty good.
10k 😃
The microphone sounds like you turned into Khan Academy
I have no idea what that is, but if it is an academy for severely constipated chopper pilots then it's spot on!
That intro just woke up my whole house, this is why I need a headset :/
the mic does NOT sound like what was demonstrated at all! it's fantastic!
Then how do you make it sound fantastic
@@alexandergonzalez751 Google "soundguys arctis 7 review" which has a voice sample from the microphone. Sounds like this guy in the video has some voice modulation software running, or has a faulty unit, because that's definitely not what it sounds like.
The mic doesnt sound that good
Cube yt it sounds really good but it’s so low on volume ppl can’t hear me while I’m speaking
My question is , does your voice sound like that in a party chat or game Chat
Raze Taze little different why do u even care for the mic
@@wut462 because I was thinkinf about buying it
@@razetaze714 its not that bad in discord, idk why its so bad on this video
I’ve been thinking about getting these to replace my previous headset and this video really helped me come to a conclusion. Keep up the good work 👍
Dude, thanks for showing the SteelEngine settings. Super helpful!
going to grab one, many thanks for the review~
Loved it bro.... Keep it going ...
I've had the original arctis 7 for over 2 years now and it works great. Sound quality is way better than any cheap wired headset I had before. It doesn't have the best base but it does have some base and the sound quality is great overall. The battery on full charge will last like 12 hours + and the battery charges very quickly - a 20-30min charge will easily give 5-6 hours. The transmitter range is also very good and easily goes through 2-3 brick walls so I easily move throughout the house and even outside.
Unfortunately after daily use (as in like I don't even use conventional speakers anymore) the charging port and/or charging circuits are worn out and mine wont charge properly. I like my original arctis 7 headset so much that I want to get a second replacement pair (rather than risk disappointment with something else) so I thought I'd watch a few reviews of the 2019 edition to see what its about and if its improved over the original its a go for me.
Thanks man finally a review that has actually given me an idea of this headset
Got these babies in white for 99$ and absolutely in love with'em ! :) Great review!
what bout simultaneous audio inputs? can you, for example, plug USB into PS4 and use the line in on the wireless dongle to plug aux into a PC and listen to both audios at the same time?
I was initially turned off from buying these from all the youtube reviews absolutely shitting on it, I eventually bought it as I kept hearing about this "2019" edition.
I dont think steelseries has done a good job of making this revision known because every negative thing previews reviews ive watch match up with the solid product that I bought.
Much better than the corsair HS 70!
my cranium finally doesnt feel like its being crushed like an aluminum can.
I'm thinking about buying these headphones, but I don't have a good PC, and I'll use it on my phone. I wanted to know if the quality remains, where you can connect, if it works well for music and mobile games and if you can talk in calls with friends such as discord Wathsapp, etc.
I really liked the video , and you managed to clarify many doubts that other TH-camrs it failed to
Hey. I haven't used it in a call, but for listening to music and playing games it seems fine. The quality is pretty good, but I would say it's better on a PC where you can install the software and configure the audio and use the processing enhancements offered by the software. The headphones come with a cable to connect them to your phone.
@@ECPUz OK Thanks, if you test on calls could you tell me if the microphone works well?Thanks
@@ECPUz And just one last question, I liked more Arctis 7 because it seemed to me an improvement for Arctis 3, but whenever I see on TH-cam it seems that the 7 has better sound quality, but on the other hand seem quite equal, and so far I can not see a big difference without being in the design
Great video! Wanting this headset so bad but just don't have the money. Super excited to buy it sometime.
I hope you are able to get it one day - it's an awesome headset!
great video mate nice review, ive just ordered my self a pair !

"The Darkest Hour"
My overrall opinion on steelseries headsets
Design - 10/10
Sound Quality 8/10
Portability - 8/10 (depends on what headset variant)
downsides:
I can easily hear noises around my environment, not really noise cancelling at all
Are they really not noise canceling? I'm about to get them bc of what they say abt it that it's really good
For Microphone, u must go in sound settings for better quality
Can I do this for PS4
Merryk Zietzke no
@@merrykzietzke2792 because PC is the master race
Donald J. Trump Yes!
Awesome review !!, I already have this ones but how will be the comparison in the sound stage with Sennheiser Game One or Zero
I've just ordered these recently and am waiting for them to be delivered. Coming from the Afterglow AG7's which sound great but seem to have issues with the sound being reversed in each ear. Apparently it is a known issue and hasn't/won't been fixed. These arctis 7's were recommended from a few people. So i'll give them a try.
How have they been? I've just ordered them as well.
@@rehszi They're ok. I bought them with the intention they would work with Xbox (wired) and i would also use them to stream on twitch. They do work wired with Xbox but you lose most of the sound quality and functionality. I may return them and look for something else :(
@@ellusionx112 yeah alot of headsets lose sound quality unless you use on PC.
Great vid! Ill buy one for me!
Can you tell me whats is your monitor?
Tyvm!
Glad you liked the vid! The monitor is the BenQ EX3501R.
@@ECPUz The price of that monitor scares me, nice review though im thinking of getting an arctis 7 and this really helped out
Awesome review man, definitely helped me make up my mind to go ahead and grab one myself 😊
Also thatd a sick wallpaper, did you take it yourself of your own build I can see next to the monitor? Would you be happy to share it? 😍😁
Should i buy revolver s or arctis 7? Or any recomendation for any better gaming headset with a price range like arctis 7
Great Review, suprised your Channel isn't bigger. Is it possible to use this headset for Xbox and or Ps4 wirelesly?
Fantastic review as always, I've been looking for a new wireless mic so I can get rid of this Corsair HS60 headset
This is one of the better gaming headsets that I've used. It's pretty awesome. Thanks for the comment!
ME TOO! I am watching this video looking for a headset to replace my HS60 as well lol
Can i connect them to iphone with bluetooth?
I have it and my mic does not sound like that at all
Whisperz WRLD does it sound better or worse
Savouryarc5 ___ A LOT better it is so clear. I can make a short video if the mic test if you want
Whisperz WRLD yes pls would love that
Hey, how is the headset?
Thony i love it
I'm watching this video in 2160p, but the video quality is still a bit blurry. For an example the text in steelseries engine 3 isn't readable.
Such a shame that Steelseries didn't go with a good microphone instead of that subpar one they went with :(
Keep it up, bruh.
The microphone lets it down
it’s a wireless mic.. it’s not that bad
harryparis Ito compared to other wireless headsets. I’ve brought the turbo,e back stealth 700 and I highly recommend. The sound is amazing!
@@gunners-x- the turtle beach 700 is a good headset but the mic has a lot of issues
@@gunners-x- the arctis has a good mic but it's not amazing
Mtzice , i haven’t yet experienced any difficulties to do with the mic. My friends have told me it’s worse than the stealth 600. I probably haven’t set them up too good. The arctic have good durability, look expensive, have an amazing sound and the mic is alright. Overall, an amazing headset. I got the turtle beach because I’ve had them before and know the sound is extremely good.
I need help I'm not sure about buying this or the hyperx flight?
This
Can someone help me with good EQ settings for this headset? I play Warzone!
surround sound comes in handy when playing competitive games like csgo
The Microphone sounds bad cause you have the Sound Format on Telephone Quality on the windows sound settings change it to highest quality
Not true, I do not have the sound format set to telephone. For a true apples-to-apples comparison when testing microphones, I always use the same quality setting of "CD Quality" which is one setting from the highest. If you watch the mic test in this video: th-cam.com/video/1WTjdp5WfQc/w-d-xo.html it is tested with the exact same Windows system settings, yet is noticeably cleaner.
However, your point is important for anyone that might be using the lower quality settings like "telephone", so I have pinned a comment to help anyone that might be doing that. Cheers!
So what on ps4 then
Hey mate. Would you recommend the Arctis 7 wireless or the Corsair HS70 Pro?
The mic ain't great but its clear enough that I'll be heard so I'll probably get it
For smartphones, you have to use a 3.5mm jack???
Yeah. It doesn't use bluetooth. That's how they get the latency down. If you want a BT headset, I recommend the sony xm series cans. They lag a bit in games tho. Good for vids and any application where you can adjust the delay though.
best headset for college doesn't bother with wires and most importantly the microphone is hidden until needed so you don't look stupid
But you cant bluetooth it onto ur phone and need the dongle for ur laptop
@@aura5068 It's true if you really want bluetooth you can get an arctis pro wireless but in that case you will pay more money on the headset than that you payed in college 😂
@@aura5068 wdym for laptop you need a dongle
Does it have led tho?
The mic is quite decent for wireless gaming headset
Theres much difference betweens SteelSeries Arctis 7 - Lossless Wireless vs SteelSeries Arctis Pro + GameDAC Wired??
Arctis Pro apparently has better speakers with better sound quality over all. I'm no audio expert but this is what I've read and heard: wired connections generally have better sound quality than wireless because wired has more bandwith than wireless 2.4ghz for example wireless is capped at 24bit 48khz audio quality whilst wired can go 24bit 96khz and upwards.The corsair virtuoso headset has both wired and wireless modes and in wired mode its 24bit 96khz and wireless 24 bit 48khz.
I think the lossless Steelseries refers to means that there is no or very little lag and degradation in sound quality until it cuts out. My original arctis 7 suffers no sound quality degradation the further I move from my PC, it sounds normal but will just suddenly cut out if the signal gets too weak.
Can you connect your phone to the usb hub via 3.5 cable and still take calls/use the mic at the same time as hearing in game audio? (example) Usb connected to PS4 or pc.....then phone connected via 3.5 to hub.....would you be able to hear incoming calls/listen to streaming music/audio?
Mic is not great. Have you compared it to the Plantronics rig800 wireless for pc??
this or the 5's?
Idk because imo this headset's mic isn't the best so I feel like I want to go with the arctis 5's
These would be my first wireless headset if I would get these ones
Copyright bro I’m sitting in the exact samr position
i had the arctis 9 for a few days, played bf5 on pc the sound quality was really bad compared to my older roccat khan aimo headset.
Whats the difference between the old arctis 7 and 2019 edition 7?
What is the best Steelseries Arctis headset??? Don’t say preference say one of them
Hehehe Fjjddj the pro but it cost the most and then if console def 9x
some plzz tell me that i should buy this headset or not because it has an amazing offer in my country
Whats the best EQ settings for fps gaming? Sound quality isnt good
That mic made my ears bleed. Just get some Sennheiser Game Ones.
It's nice for gaming, not fir recording or streaming
@Feared It sounds way better for me. On this video it's garbage. I wouldn't recommend it for recording, but it's possible
Gotta use an actual microphone and the headset just for audio
Wireless headphones sound like shit alot of the time but when its wired it sounds fuckin sick
If you made changes in equalizer will it work with phone and ps4 or just for pc ?
Just get voice mod and keep it running. It makes your mic sound much clearer.
how do i get the voice mod?
KC4L Digital just look up voice mod download. It’s a voice changer but it also improves mic qualitu
How do I know if it’s the 2019 version when I purchase from that link? I’m looking for the white one.. any way you can link me to that edition?
jjazmin the box on the older ones is black on the left corner. On the new ones the box is white and also the steelseries logo is black on the new version. I saw it on this comparison. www.rtings.com/headphones/tools/compare/steelseries-arctis-7-vs-steelseries-arctis-7-2019-edition/498/771
i have the hs70 wireless , had them RMA once, week later, said im pissed off coz the same issue happened (left cup louder than right- right cup dead) and got a refund aproval without asking for it. corsair wireless headsets need to be taken off shelves asap
What is the difference between Arctis 3 and Arctis 7?
Andre Santos Alberto i just upgraded from The 3 and its much worse mic vise (even after changing The settings)
The wireless capability is the difference. The sound is almost the same. They feel the same on my head.The Mic is the same for me too. But the Arctis 3 cannot be configured with the software because it uses 3.5mm Jack.
My mic on these sound so muffled... Andy solutions for this? Ive tried everything
Did you tried to put some little foam around?
Did you tried to put some little foam around?
Im already searching for new headsets since logitech g633 is a bit wobbly and not that trustable
I use this headset with my Oculus Rift S
how even? it's such an uncomfortable fit.
@@FloatyCoyote not at all unless your head is enormous.
@@ghfhgfuuu lmao
Did you connect the headset to your pc via bluetooth when you tested that mic? Because it sounds horrible! The mic is capable to do alot better! I know that the quality suffers from bluetooth connection with pc.
yeah i agree i have seen other reviews and it sounds much much better
What do you guys think is better. Steel series arctis 7 or the hyper x flight
Steelseries
i like how on my razer krakens, my ears dont touch any part of the earcup. do you find that to be the same on these ?
i currently have razer kraken is it worth the upgrade?
B H these literally didn’t fit on my fat head lol. Still using the krakens because I like how big it is and the earcups are big
@@C0nnie what about sound + mic is it a big upgrade or just a little ill be using for ps4 and pc
B H sound + mic on the Arctis 7 or krakens?
@@C0nnie ya comparing them both which one is better?
What's the name of that PC case in the background :O

Is there hearthrough
I have a question if someone can answer. Do I need to have Bluetooth on my PC?
no. you just put the usb-dongle to your motherboard and something else and it should work.
that benq monitor is sexy
The mic has software to make it sound better because it is discord certified
When i download the Steelseries engine it does not connect to my headset, i did it with the USB and in Windows. Anyone that can help ?
Kilzzy i have the same issue. Have u solved it?
@@DerWiLLi_ nope, nothing i did worked. I did return it tho, i keep using my Ps4 gold wireless headset.
I can't trust a man that wear a hat indoors
