SteelSeries - Arctis Nova 5P Wireless

Steelseries Arctis nova 5p. They cost about £130. I have had so many sets of wired headsets and either the mic breaks or the cable screw up, or they are cheap and I sit on them or something. So I thought I would get wireless ones and I honestly can't complain. The battery life is amazing and the sound quality is great. You can spend more but to be honest I don't know what I am missing with the more expensive ones so couldn't say. But it's mad, you can hear whether someones above you, behind you etc, mad.

Those steel series ones I got are amazing. Wireless and battery last ages. 200 dollars or pounds.

Have been through many, can highly recommend SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5P Wireless Gaming Headset and i use them for both pc and ps dayz. Comfortable for extended hours of use easily. Pull out mic, and easy mute button as well. It actually has a dayz setting as well and the 3d directional sound is unbeatable. https://preview.redd.it/2shgioixpyaf1.jpeg?width=1320&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dcaaa085913d5893203111901e0f5a6ba425791d

Can confirm no ‘nubbin’ on the new series arctis nova, only the old ss ones

The steelseries arctis nova 5p is a excellent headset sound quality is fantastic when sst up with custom preset.

I've Steelseries Arctis Nova 5P Wireless that I use with my PS5, which requires a USB dongle for 2.4ghz, and I've never noticed any latency whilst using them. Play mostly Warzone/Black Ops 6.

got the wireless nova 5p and its the best headset ive ever used after using multiple turtlebeach and hyperx in the past.

Ive got 0 complaints. I use it with the adapter on my ps5 and Bluetooth on my pc. Seemless switching. My pc autoconnects in bluetooth mode and my ps5 auto connects when i swap back

i bought a nova 5p wireless and ive had 0 issues,

i bought a steelseries nova 5p wireless after watching a few youtube videos. it has a dongle you plug into the ps5 consoole itself and works amazingly. im genuinly satisfied with it.

the nova 5- wireless is actually cheaper! does seem to be made very similar, ive enjoyed it so far. big upgrade from my last

ahh, on the nova 5p wireless the mic can be retracted or pulled out, it can then be bent closer to your mouth, not to sure of the 7p. i like the mic passthrough where i can hear myself a bit, helps to know if im muted or not. its a stepup from my last headset which was a cheap $40 hyperx playstation headset. although it contained some metal i feel that if i keep this on my headphone stand and keep good care of it, it should last awhile. i bought it for $90 using my employee discount at walmart so i cant be mad as they normally cost $120+tax and wasnt trying to break the bank. i needed wireless as i have my pc a fair bit away and i would frequently get up or move and tug on the aux port and didnt want it to break.

I run a SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5P Wireless, with the USB C dongle. It even allows charging while in use.

With the dongle there's essentially none. With Bluetooth... it's Bluetooth.

I just recently bought the nova 5p ones recently and it’s a breathe of fresh air compared to my turtle beach’s. I definitely recommend them, not to mention the battery life is amazing.

I LOVE my Arctis Nova 5 wireless but yea that fucking app blows. I uninstalled it after like 10 minutes.

I use the Nova 5p wireless for PC and the 7p wireless on PS5 and absolutely love them. Steelseries makes really good stuff. Just delete their horrible app off your pc. Lol

Also I just realised you said PS5, unless he sits at a desk then headphones and a seperate mic probably wouldn't be the best idea. If he's a couch gamer then regular gaming headphones with a built in mic would be a better option. I really liked these Steelseries Arctis Nova 7P headphones. The 5P are also decent. There's also tons of options out there for headbands and earcups to customize them.

Dongle. I have the Nova 5s and they have been great. No issues whatsoever.

This is a problem I faced a month ago, my first Xbox and i learned the bad way that you cannot connect anything good directly, you need a DAC approved by Microsoft, I think only the mix/amp (I got it and I could never made it work, no updates available anymore) and the steelseries gen 2 (this is the one that worked for me)… then you can connect anything non-Xbox approved (everything made for Xbox is shit)… then you can connect any headphone… unfortunately the dac itself is about 100 USD… with a very basic iems you will get a much better experience ( around 20 usd) vs any “gaming headphone”… over ear I suggest you go for an open back headphone (maybe kiwi ears altruva) but it would never be close to 50 usd with good quality… you would love the IEMs, it is a game changer vs any gaming headphone you ever tried. I had the Astro a50 and they are awful compared to a 20 usd iem… a good overear headphone made for high quality music will also be a game changer but you will need to invest a bit more… I almost forget, mic is a challenge, you can connect the iem to the controller directly but the mic might not work…. That is why I needed a dac… also consider to do some tuning on Xbox Dolby atmos depending on what you are playing… some IEMs have a very high treble which can be a bit annoying. Chat gpt can make the work for you. Good luck, I wanted a simple wired headphone with a mic and I ended up spending 200 usd to make it work (dac, cheap IEMs, trrs splitter and a boyu mic) … I was that happy that I upgraded immediately to a better IEMs and good over ear headphones
