SteelSeries has developed a reputation as makers of pretty high-end hardware. At least, this was the impression I'd held onto since I first heard their name many years ago. Until now, I'd never had the chance to properly test this assumption.

High level of functionality; Flexible in their range of usability; Super stylish in design

Sleek design feels fragile; White hardware just cannot stay clean; Certain functions locked behind updates

The sound really comes to life, I enjoy listening to spotify whilst playing my favourite ps4 games and the Mic sounds awesome. My wife never knows when my headphones are on either because there isnt any residual sound.

Crystal clear microphone and excellent sound make these a great gaming headphone set

The gaming headset space is becoming increasingly competitive as gaming becomes a larger industry and gamers realize the impact quality accessories can have. We've reviewed a few great headsets - including a number of headsets under $100 - like the HyperX Cloud Alpha , which has been hailed as one...

Very comfortable, I use them on my Xbox One. I like that the jack is at 90 degrees. It does require the Xbox One adapter for adjusting the chat and game volume.

It's a cool headset with the LEDs but if you have to spend 5 minutes adjusting the cable everyone you use it so that sound comes out the right side then it's quite disappointing

The microphone has stopped workinh after 3 weeks

The Arctis 5 offers great sound that you can fine-tune to your liking, a comfortable design and an impressive mic at a reasonable price.

Extremely comfortable; Sleek aesthetics; Great audio; Sensible software

So-so surround sound; Long; convoluted cables

i bought this headset 1 mouth a go it is lit go get it

Pros: Decent sound External Volume tuner works great Looks great mic is nice Cons: not suitable for large ears, mine get sore after a while and they're medium sized. The Bass isn't very good, Cant feel it like i could with my razer kraken v2.
