Questions and answers

Is the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless worth it?
If you play long sessions on PC or PlayStation and hate charging breaks, the dual hot-swap batteries justify the price. Casual players who play an hour at a time can get similar sound for much less.
How does it compare with the wired Arctis Nova Pro?
The wireless version adds Bluetooth, ANC, and the two-battery swap system. The wired model is cheaper and lighter but tethers you to the DAC.
How long does the battery last?
Each battery runs roughly 20 to 22 hours with ANC on. Because two are included and swap in seconds, total play time is effectively unlimited.
Does it work with Xbox?
No. This version is built for PC and PlayStation; Xbox needs the separate Xbox-certified model.
What is in the box?
The headset, the wireless base station, two batteries, a USB-C cable, a 3.5 mm cable, and a carry pouch.
When is it cheapest?
It has sold near $300 during major sales events. The current $349.99 at SteelSeries as of November 3 is close to its recent high.
What do buyers say about the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Gaming Headset Wireless?
