The SteelSeries Arctis Pro was the pinnacle of gaming headsets in SteelSeries' lineup until the arrival of its successor, the Arctis Nova Pro. It comes packed with exceptional features not commonly found in other gaming headsets, including a standalone base station equipped with a volume knob and an OLED display, the ability to connect simultaneously via Bluetooth and 2.4GHz WiFi, and the standout feature: the **hot-swappable battery system**. This system ensures uninterrupted wireless use by allowing you to swap batteries without any downtime, as SteelSeries provides two batteries—one for use and one for charging.
The Arctis Pro showcases superior build quality, typical of SteelSeries headsets. It features a headband made from a lightweight steel and aluminum alloy, complemented by a comfortable suspension headstrap perfect for long gaming sessions. The ear cushions are crafted from AirWeave performance fabric, akin to those on the newer Arctis Nova Pro. The retractable ClearCast boom microphone adds to the convenience, and the audio quality is impressive, thanks to premium 40mm speaker drivers with high-density neodymium magnets that deliver hi-res audio up to 40,000Hz.
SteelSeries Arctis Pro Review by Matt Elliot
"The SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless offers premium build quality, a comfortable design, and outstanding sound. Its innovative battery-swapping feature ensures you're never without power. While its audio performance is superb, the wired Arctis Pro + GameDAC edges it out slightly in performance, being both comfortable and versatile, and $70 cheaper. Alternatively, for a more budget-friendly option, the wireless Arctis 7 is available for less than half the price."
The Arctis Pro was succeeded by the Arctis Nova Pro in 2022. The best current price for a brand new Arctis Nova Pro is $270 on Amazon. Although it's an excellent headset with notable upgrades like active noise cancellation and USB Type-C charging, it's certainly not worth nearly double the price of the Arctis Pro.
