SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7X Wireless Gen 2 Gaming Headset Real-Time App Control
With 50+ hour battery life and 200+ game-specific audio presets controlled in real-time via the Companion app, this headset lets you tune for footsteps or explosions mid-match. Neodymium drivers deliver clear spatial audio, the ClearCast Gen 2 mic rejects up to -25dB of background noise, and the steel frame with memory foam cushions survives marathon sessions. Best for competitive multiplayer gamers juggling Xbox, PC, and Switch who need simultaneous 2.4GHz game audio plus Bluetooth for calls or music.
