Good headphones!
These are a great pair of headphones for gaming and over-all use. They have great sound quality and are very light-weight and comfortable. They have a seamless connection profile when you turn them on and paired with the dongle for my pc. The battery life is great too! With one charge I’ve used them for multiple hours and have yet to use up all the battery in one session.My only complain is that the software is not the best and at times a little confusing. It lacks a user-friendly interface and could be arranged for better profiling but can’t complained. I’ve owned multiple headphones and have messed with different softwares and it took me a little bit to get used to but not impossible.If I had the chance to do it all over again and spend my money somewhere else, I would pick these headphones again. They are genuinely a great product for gaming and generic use I can’t stress it enough.

Huge upgrade from my old headset
Got one of these for the PlayStation 5. I primarily play single player games, so I haven’t really tested the microphone in chat, and I didn’t try the companion app out.I had a cheaper gaming headset that was wired to the controller, and it was so uncomfortable after about 1-1 1/2 hours of play. It actually hurt to wear after that timeframe.These are so much better. Not only is the wireless capabilities more convenient, but they are so comfortable to wear. Sound quality is fantastic, too. I love the ability to just throw these on, and not have to worry about any wires. Weight wise, these are very light. Battery life is awesome, and the initial setup was more simple than I thought.So from that alone, I would definitely recommend these. These are a steal when they’re on sale.

Great headset after setting it up
Great headset overall. Good soundstage and excellent microphone quality. Good battery life but can take a while to charge. Very light and comfortable. Only gripes I had was that the headset isn’t the best at blocking out outside noise and it had connectivity issues when first setting it up, but that was fixed after an update. Definitely download SteelSeries GG to get the most out of it since the headset doesn’t come with a great EQ out of the box.

Almost Perfect
I received a PS5 as a Christmas gift from my wife and wanted a nice pair of wireless headphones to go with it. After a TON of research and not caring that wired are “typically” the way to go for the best audio experience, I kept seeing mentions and likes for the Nova 5’s. I thought it was odd that the 7’s kept getting “worse” reviews (still great…just not as good) than the 5’s…and the 5’s are much cheaper, so I bit the bullet and ordered a pair. Out of the box the set up and the app download was super easy. It was a pain to figure out how to update the firmware (do some research on it but essentially you have to plug in BOTH the dongle and headphones into the computer at once). Once I figured it out it was easy to update the firmware and check out the app. I really only messed with the mobile app (Iphone) and it was cool to check out the different sound/gaming presets you could choose from.As far as the sound goes; It’s great. Deep thumping base (for the most part), high mids and good highs. I’m not an audiophile by any means, but I know great sound compared to bad. These are great. Not excellent, but unless you want to drop another $150-200 for the 7’s, these are perfect. The noise cancellation is great too; I have to take them off to talk to my wife – can’t hear her at all lol.For comfort; they are super comfortable out of the box. I did opt to get cooling gel ear pad replacements, but the stock ones on these are perfectly fine. Very comfortable and I wear glasses – no issues there.Connectivity – for the most part is great. No issues with connecting to my phone or my PS5. The sound will start to cut out if I walk into another room with multiple walls between me and the console, but that’s to be expected. What I’m not the biggest fan of (hence the one star deduction) are the random pops/interference I hear occasionally when I’m playing. The console is probably 10ft from my seat with no interference at all, and it still happens sometimes. Not enough for me to want to return them, but enough that it can be annoying sometimes. Again, it doesn’t happen all the time, but even if I’m playing for an hour it will happen once or twice. I initially started with a white pair (returned for black) and the same thing happened with them. Unsure if it’s interference from another bluetooth device somewhere or my router?All in all I recommend these. They are a little pricey, but once you make the next bump from the $30-40 pair, these are highly worth it. Sound, quality, battery life, comfort — all great!

Długo trzyma bateria. Dźwięk bardzo dobry. Brak możliwości aktualizacji słuchawek na Linuksie. Żeby je zaktualizować muszę to robić na komputerach z Windowsem

It is a pretty good headphone. It came with no problems at all and was not used before.

Muito tone de ouvido e entrega o que se propõe. A bateria dura bastante no bluetooth. Bom som e abafamento. Agora ver a durabilidade
