"the most convenient, literally able to reload the headset battery (2 come with box) and charge in DAC or just USB C to headset"
"the inter-changeable batteries is a very nice feature that has saved my gaming sessions a good few times."
"the cherry on top is the swapable batteries. ... If swapping batteries is too hard for you, you probably struggle with a lot of things lol"

"The tent I use most often is a 4 person Coleman I bought new for $40 about 20 years ago. I'm very pleased with it. It gets about 10 days of use a year, so 200 days total so far"
"My 4-man Coleman has weathered some beatings over the past 10 years. Solid tent."

I got steelseries arctic nova something. Work both with Xbox and PS5 and any Bluetooth device (simultaneously, can do both phone and console to not miss out on calls for example).
r/PS5pro • New Pro Owner… looking for headset recommendations? ->https://preview.redd.it/xdckprj0h21g1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=995006035929ee15de05db6e5bce1848d7c2f2c7 Steelseries all the way. I bought the Nova and never had any complaints. Cheaper than Astros but approved by Pro gamers that they're better.
r/playstation • Which would you choose, and why? ->Thank you for commenting on that very useful feature. It's disappointing that there hasn't been an improvement on the sidetone. I've been stuck using the steelseries arctis nova 3 wireless because the sidetone on there is perfect. I'm not sure if the Non-Pro model would be different.
r/razer • Razer BlackShark V3 Pro (3 hours in review) ->I recommend the SteelSeries nova 3 wireless as that headset has a good mic and loud / clear real-time sidetone built-in to the headset.
r/buildapc • Looking for a Playstation headset with great sidetone ->Audeze Maxwell - Considered one of the best wireless gaming headsets. Popular with music creators as well as for gaming. Mic is reasonably good, though can clip a little. Comes with leather earpads, but they can be replaced easily. Drop + EPOS PC38X - One of the best wired gaming headsets for sound clarity and mic quality. Bass reproduction is a bit muted, which is common for older style EPOS / Sennheiser headsets, and common with open back headphones in general. The mic is essentially the best of any consumer headset you can buy. Generally can only be bought directly from Drop's site. Comes with both cloth and velour earpads. [https://drop.com/buy/drop-epos-pc38x-gaming-headset](https://drop.com/buy/drop-epos-pc38x-gaming-headset) Steel Series Arctis headsets are generally a decent middle ground in terms of decent bass and mic quality. The overall audio quality isn't as good as either the Maxwell or PC38X, but they're closed back so their bass response is more like the Maxwell. And the mic quality is generally better than the Maxwell, but no where near as good as the PC38X. Most (maybe all?) use cloth earpads. Nova Pro Wireless and Nova 9 are both quite good, with the Nova 9 being slightly better in terms of audio clarity and mic quality, but the Pro Wireless has better bass and noise cancelling.
r/buildapc • What's the best Gaming headset in terms of Sound quality and quality microphone? ->Arctis nova no question
r/XboxSupport • Advice on which headset to buy for Series X ->Arc Steel Series is another solid option. I have a wireless one I purchased for $100 two years ago and haven’t had a single problem. Crisp, clear audio and super comfortable too.
r/XboxGamers • Headset recommendations ->I had no luck finding a decent all pink headset. But I really love my current headset. I have the Steelseries Arctis Nova in white! You can swap out some of the white parts with pink accessories they sell. Like [this](https://steelseries.com/gaming-accessories/nova-booster-pack?color=rose-quartz). You can also buy replacement ear cups from third parties that are pink in color!
r/GirlGamers • Pink headsets recommendation? ->Cloud alpha wireless sound awful, but no wireless headphones that function off of a USB dongle are going to sound good and Bluetooth headphones have too much input lag for gaming unless you're playing single player titles. Arctis Nova are the least bad imo, but I've just given up on wireless headphones for now. I used to call my wireless HyperX headset my tin cans because they sounded like tin cans and the mic quality was worse than my laptop webcam's
r/buildapc • What is the best wireless gaming headset for a 14 year old for his birthday next week? ->I have a different model of the Arctis Nova but it’s my daily user for PC, PS5, and even my steam deck and phone sometimes when I’m on flights. I just think it’s excellent, even if the PC software is challenging to configure.
r/playstation • Which would you choose, and why? ->I have the arctis nova and love it!
