Both, however, come with a base station and two USB-C ports to be connected to multiple devices, and both have the same audio performance and physical design. As noted earlier, SteelSeries has two versions of this headset-one for Sony PlayStation and one for Microsoft Xbox.

SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless Features Wide Compatibility The layout is finger-friendly to navigate, with the buttons placed far enough apart to differentiate them. I found all the controls easy to reach and use. On the right ear cup is a button for pairing Bluetooth.


And you also get a microphone mute button, power button and a 3.5mm jack for wired listening. On the left ear cup sits a volume wheel, which can also control Xbox’s ChatMix (toggle to control ChatMix by pressing the wheel). Its boom microphone extends from the left ear cup, and it blends in well once it’s retracted.
