The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 Wireless does most things right. It sounds very good, if a little too neutral for gaming purposes, has the kind of battery life that should last you through many gaming sessions, is comfortable, and comes with a number of great gaming-centric features. If only it were a tiny bit cheaper.

The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 Wireless may not be the top model in SteelSeries’ latest line of gaming headsets, but it’s definitely a capable choice. It looks good and offers solid noise isolation, as well as providing well-balanced audio. The microphone here offers some good body and clarity too, which should make it a great all-round option.
