I just bought this headset on a whim today cause I was getting sick of my wired corsair headset and I swear when I first hooked up this headset I was absolutely amazed at what you can get for $100 nowadays
The fact this can be used with the switch or on phones because of it's usb-c transmitter, can still use a cable to connect to other devices, and it's not over-the-top design made me pick this over other brands at the same price point. Still waiting for it to be delivered though.
I’ve had these headphones for a few years now and I still absolutely love them. They are one of the most comfortable headsets I have ever worn and the sound quality still holds up in 2024.
Are they compatible with PS5? And may I ask u,do they have an app on mobile phone so I can adjust their settings? And do u recommend it for me using it with a ps5 and a phone?
@ I don’t personally own a PS5 but based on what I’ve heard on Reddit it should be completely fine to use on PS5. In terms of functionality on a mobile phone, I don’t think there is a way to adjust certain settings. (I could very well be wrong) Originally this headset was meant for android users but where iPhones have upgraded their ports to usb C, I’m assuming it would work just fine. The overall sound quality is great, but the mic quality is really bad in my personal opinion.
@@gumpoppers idk if a 3.5 mm would work but what i do is i plug in a micro usb cable connected to my pc and it works while charging it at the same time.
I don't know... this video just repeats what the product description is saying. No testing shown at all. It is not convicing me buying it just because of what was said here. Show your testing not only your "results". Like this it sounds like a salesman from the company to me.
Ikr. You can't trust a review that just explains the pros This is clickbait smh A lot of people complain the audio on this is tinny and it requires a fix through software updates. If you view the amazon reviews you'll see many complaints of the poor mic and tinny non bass sound but idk what to believe
@@Thawhid I bought it and I can confirm that mic quality is not the best but good enough for gaming. Nothing for streamers or podcasting or something like that. The sound is really good in my opinion and the fliexbility is nice and battery length is great too. The connection range is good enough for 1 room but when I go to my kitchen it often breaks up. Tbh I wished it would come with additional bluetooth then it would get 4,5/5 (because of the mic). Like this I would recommend 4/5
I was shopping for my first gaming headset for my Xbox Series X. After watching this review, I was sold on the minimalistic and simplistic look, it being wireless, and the compatibility with all my devices. I ended up buying it thanks to this review!
I was a bit confused and disappointed when I first opened the box because I plugged in the USB adapter into my Xbox and thought that I could play wirelessly that way, but turns out I can’t. I still have to plug in my headset to my Xbox controller via the 3.5mm jack. But it’s wireless for my switch, laptop, and tablet. It’s weird that the headset still needs a wired connection when the Xbox has a USB port. Otherwise, the quality of the sound and mic, and the comfort are great!
@@brevindomingo4277 For some reason there’s a Xbox specific version if you want that. Idk why they didn’t just make it work like everything else maybe licensing issues?
Hey i just got a series x and needed a headset that would work with it and was thinking of getting this one, and since you made this comment almost a year ago i wanted to ask how it's been so far. To see if I'd be worth the money
@@javiercaban7565 yeah of course. For me, after a year, I’d still recommend this headset. The quality of the audio and material is still near peak condition, not to mention I did switch to next gen and it was super easy to do. I mostly use the wireless connection and there is no audio delay, and it does come with a wire attachment regardless. The battery even after a years lasts me a very long time, and since I do a lot of long gaming sessions, I don’t need to worry and charge time is also very quick. The only downside is that you can’t adjust the mic monitoring but everything else you can do. Overall, it’s gotta be the best headset I’ve ever owned. It was 100 dollars last year, but now the price has dropped down to 50-60 dollars. I doubt that’ll lower the quality though, so you’re still getting your money’s worth
Just bought it for my switch got astro A50 gen 4 for PS5 and Series X, so we shall see how these bad boys compare... maybe not a fair test but you never know 🤷
Hello help! When this headset connected to an ipad 2021 over bluetooth, can you use the mic of the headset or you will have to use the ipads internal mic ? Tyia.
tyler franey Okay so i found the solution. Output is the speaker or Headset (where you hear from) and input is the microphone. So if you have a Steelseries headset, you need to download SteelSeries engine on Windows 7 or higher or on Mac from a browser. Then when it’s done downloading and you have your headset. Go to the Steelseries engine and click on the Headset name, then when you see all the sound settings, click on the two arrows by the headset, and it shows “pair device”, click on it, then just pair the headset there, but make sure that your cables are connected correctly to the PC and the checkmarks should appear, then put “start pairing”. That’s how it works.
Bro, is there a recommendation for a type c dongle so that it can be charged while using the wireless type c dongle??? In order to be able to play games or movies while charging, the problem is that the battery is already draining. My cellphone is galaxy note 9 thanks 🙏🙏
On amazon they have “styles” of this headset. One is Ps4. Does the ps4 version work on pc? Cause they have a pc/multiplatform but thats a whole 50 bucks more. & all the videos im seeing says it’s compatible with both. So which one should I get?

tysm for this rly detailed review. it rly helped. i only have one question. how good is the sound quality? me personally i need some rly good sound quality but i dont want to spend $300 - $400. that is all
@@ipostspeedclipz no I mean for a fantastic sounding pair of headphones. They can get really expensive so that's why I was looking at cheaper options like this.
I bought this yesterday, received it today, and the headset won't pair with the dongle because it won't turn off, which is required for pairing :\ Gonna send it back tomorrow.
The dongle is too wide from what I can see. A friend of mine and 1 like to couch co-op on the PS5 and he uses the JBL Quantum 350 usb A dongle at the front of the PS5 since putting it at the back of the PS5 could have lag problems ánd problems with the heat exhaust of the PS5 heating up the USB dongle. However, with the extremely wide-looking usb C dongle that the Sleelseries Arctis 1 seemingly has from what I can see from this video, the dongle will largely or entirely block the usb A port on the front of the PS5? Anyone else has this problem and have your found a budget-to-mid-range quality that does have an usb C dongle but not that wide?
@@TeslaT-NT I'll give you a summary. I bought the Arctis Nova 7X and so did my brother at the same time, it was a very comfy, multi-platform headset with simultaneous bluetooth but it did have some issues, which is why I was forced to return it. The USB-C dongle is too wide and blocks the USB-A front port of a PS5 too unless the USB-C to A extention cord is used. Then the USB-C port can potentially still be used. The dongle had latency issues when used simultaneously with the same model during couch co-op on the PS5. The mic wasn't up to the standards of a mid-range headset. It gave robotic, delayed noises when talking, as if the PS5 or both headsets struggled. The mic arm coming out of the earcup also rattled too much during frequent use, even to the extent that it was noticeable during videos. I sent my Nova 7X to the shop's repair service, they couldn't repair it and I got my money back. My brother's Nova 7X had somewhat similar issues. In his case, the mic didn't rattle, (yet) but the headset does lose connection regularly, even in the midst of making a video. Steelseries can't get their headset mics right for some reason. His issues aren't bad enough yet for him to consider repairing it. Two different brand headsets seemingly DO work (I use the JBL Quantum 350 budget headset for now). I'm looking to buy the Turtle Beach Stealth Pro Wireless X now since it's supposedly an amazing headset for consoles that lets you tweak EQ-settings, even for the mic and lets you use nearly it's max capabilities on consoles, unlike Steelseries.
I recently bought myself a blue yeti mic, and i want to use my arctis 1 as my headset, but unfortunately i cant because the bluetooth is messing up the connection of my mic.
the arctis 1 wireless is 100$ and the alpha s is 130$, and its wired. if u want wireless, obviously go for the arctis 1 if u dont care about cables, and u can pay the extra bucks, i would say alpha s but i feel like 130$ is a lil too much for a wired headset especially when u could get great alternatives (if not better) at a lower price, like these: - Razer Blackshark V2 X - HyperX Cloud Stinger - Corsair HS60 Pro - HyperX Cloud II all of which are fantastic headsets, especially for the price, when compared to the Alpha S. Don't get the alpha s. if u want wired, get one of those i listed above hope u didnt already buy it...
Thinking of returning the hyperx cloud s I got for my friend and buying this for him instead, I’m struggling because the hyperx cloud s is better in every way except it isn’t wireless. If anyone sees this, would you give up better sound quality for it being wireless? (P.S) the arctis 1 wireless does still sound amazing.)
If the price is the same then i would go wireless because two of my headsets have broken because of the wires. If the sound quality difference isn't that big then i would go wireless I'm my opinion

sounds great, does the blue tooth work for xbox one? some ppl are saying it does...while others... don't.
I'm late but yes since it connects using a usb adapter
@@mrgiraffe1577 thanks!
Does your ears touch the side in the headset where the sound is coming from?
Same question here, got this problem with my brothers shitty razer headset
Nopeee but i have small ears tho 😂
They dont and I have rather large ears.
This headset does not work with Xbox, it won’t connect to dongle and mic doesn’t work when using aux
Having the same issue, mine didn’t connect at all. Got them today
@@sigmaboy5327 Got mine today as well and as far as I can tell they don’t work with xbox. I’ve tried using the dongle the controller itself and the xbox and it just won’t pair. When using the aux the xbox will acknowledge that I have a headset plugged in but it won’t pick up my voice
@@sockman6108 There are two different versions of this headset. The first one was released and it was wireless for everything EXCEPT for Xbox, which had to be wired. Then they released the version that works wireless for Xbox as well as everything else which has green on the box and green inside the earcups.
Am I supposed to unplug the connection when I finish playing?
No
Nice video man. I'm gonna buy it soon🔥even a little bit late.
Can I use the headset on my PS4 and laptop at the same time, with the mic working on both? I play PS4 but mainly talk to friends on discord.
I don’t think so
Hrdxyt
Are you sure? What if I connect wireless on PS4 then wired on pc at the same time? (Or vice verse)
Jordxn7 I can try if you want me to dawg?
Hrdxyt
Yes please brother.
Jordxn7 I got you man
Thank u for the video God BLESSHYA!
Does the steel series Artis 1 it work on Xbox if I change the setting on Xbox
How do I get the mic fix?
Does the USB C wireless connector for the switch work with voice aswell as audio from the headphones?
No cuz you need to connect to your phone at the same time
i got the g432 and im mad tired of the wires. i've been looking at the arctis 1 wireless for a minute
Is arctis 1 a 7.1 gaming headset?
tysm for this rly detailed review. it rly helped. i only have one question. how good is the sound quality? me personally i need some rly good sound quality but i dont want to spend $300 - $400. that is all
It costs like $50
@@ipostspeedclipz no I mean for a fantastic sounding pair of headphones. They can get really expensive so that's why I was looking at cheaper options like this.

Does it come in different sizes?
no?
That's what she said
@@Renvaar1989 ? Cringe.
I bought this yesterday, received it today, and the headset won't pair with the dongle because it won't turn off, which is required for pairing :\ Gonna send it back tomorrow.
I could either get this headset and a game or the Arctic 7p and no game. Give me some info on wich one I should go for
These and a game!
I really hate the size of the Bluetooth transmitter. Wouldn’t it be so easy just to make it smaller? It blocks other ports on your motherboard
Mic on xbox sucks? Am i doing something wrong?
It sounds good? ur shi tweakin
The dongle is too wide from what I can see. A friend of mine and 1 like to couch co-op on the PS5 and he uses the JBL Quantum 350 usb A dongle at the front of the PS5 since putting it at the back of the PS5 could have lag problems ánd problems with the heat exhaust of the PS5 heating up the USB dongle. However, with the extremely wide-looking usb C dongle that the Sleelseries Arctis 1 seemingly has from what I can see from this video, the dongle will largely or entirely block the usb A port on the front of the PS5? Anyone else has this problem and have your found a budget-to-mid-range quality that does have an usb C dongle but not that wide?
Did you find any headset ?
@@TeslaT-NT I'll give you a summary. I bought the Arctis Nova 7X and so did my brother at the same time, it was a very comfy, multi-platform headset with simultaneous bluetooth but it did have some issues, which is why I was forced to return it. The USB-C dongle is too wide and blocks the USB-A front port of a PS5 too unless the USB-C to A extention cord is used. Then the USB-C port can potentially still be used. The dongle had latency issues when used simultaneously with the same model during couch co-op on the PS5. The mic wasn't up to the standards of a mid-range headset. It gave robotic, delayed noises when talking, as if the PS5 or both headsets struggled. The mic arm coming out of the earcup also rattled too much during frequent use, even to the extent that it was noticeable during videos. I sent my Nova 7X to the shop's repair service, they couldn't repair it and I got my money back. My brother's Nova 7X had somewhat similar issues. In his case, the mic didn't rattle, (yet) but the headset does lose connection regularly, even in the midst of making a video. Steelseries can't get their headset mics right for some reason. His issues aren't bad enough yet for him to consider repairing it. Two different brand headsets seemingly DO work (I use the JBL Quantum 350 budget headset for now). I'm looking to buy the Turtle Beach Stealth Pro Wireless X now since it's supposedly an amazing headset for consoles that lets you tweak EQ-settings, even for the mic and lets you use nearly it's max capabilities on consoles, unlike Steelseries.
How can I connect it to a iPhone please help
Im a little bit angry about the chate/game mixing audio not there
yes, sounds convincing. I'm buying.
does it work with ipad pro 2020？
Does this come with a audio splittr
can you turn this wireless headset into a wired one with an aux??
I recently bought myself a blue yeti mic, and i want to use my arctis 1 as my headset, but unfortunately i cant because the bluetooth is messing up the connection of my mic.
Is that just a standard usb adapter
When I try and use it on my ps4 the microphone doesn't work, can someone help?
Same I just bought mine yesterday. I could hear everything but I’m chat they can’t hear me unless I hold the mic stupid close to my mouth
Bro mine just came in the mic doesn’t even work bro like wtf I got scammed for basically 105$ like why
Okay lol my bad as soon as I said that you need to push down really hard on the audio jack inside the it will work
@@si0x377 same 💀 i got scared for for a minute too
you need to push the mic until it clicks inside
Steelseries arctis 1 wireless or Hyperx cloud alpha s?
the arctis 1 wireless is 100$ and the alpha s is 130$, and its wired.
if u want wireless, obviously go for the arctis 1
if u dont care about cables, and u can pay the extra bucks, i would say alpha s but i feel like 130$ is a lil too much for a wired headset especially when u could get great alternatives (if not better) at a lower price, like these:
- Razer Blackshark V2 X
- HyperX Cloud Stinger
- Corsair HS60 Pro
- HyperX Cloud II
all of which are fantastic headsets, especially for the price, when compared to the Alpha S. Don't get the alpha s. if u want wired, get one of those i listed above
hope u didnt already buy it...
@@wakozem345 which one do you use for yourself?
Thinking of returning the hyperx cloud s I got for my friend and buying this for him instead, I’m struggling because the hyperx cloud s is better in every way except it isn’t wireless. If anyone sees this, would you give up better sound quality for it being wireless? (P.S) the arctis 1 wireless does still sound amazing.)
If the price is the same then i would go wireless because two of my headsets have broken because of the wires. If the sound quality difference isn't that big then i would go wireless I'm my opinion
watching this waiting for the headset to arrive using my flaky deteriorated hyperx stinger headset (that i keep as a backup) with a broken (cable ripped and doesnt fall under warranty) corsair hs70 pro to my right
What the heck the wireless usb dongle looks horrible like it’s gonna block other usb ports next to it
Where is microphone test?
I don’t think so, but do they have led lights?
Sharky nope sadly
You have to get the arctics 5 which are the same price but don’t have the wireless option
LED as in on/off indicator type things or do you mean RGB?
I just bought mine and they have led lights on the headband and the steelEaries logo
hey, does the mic and audio work when connected wireless?
Yes
Does this headset have surround sound
I bought but everytime I play cod people say it sounds bad
