Yes, at that budget, I would suggest that headset or the Razer Blackshark V3 X. I did a deep dive recently myself, and wound up picking up the HyperX Cloud III S, but in your price point, the SteelSeries or Razer would offer more value than most of the HyperX line-up.
I tried this headset as my first real wireless gaming headset. Functions fine but honestly cannot wear it for long gaming sessions because it does start to hurt my head. I've gone back to using my A40s primarily.
I think the older models fit a lot better than the newer ones. The ear pads/cups on the older models are larger. I got an old Arctis 1 and my partner has am Arctis Nova 5x and the pads on the 5x are so damn small... I recently got a Hyper X Cloud 3 and that one fits amazing. Really large and spacious earcups.
I guess depends on the game. I got pulse 3d, cloud 3, turtle beach 2 gen, Arctis nova 5. Sound wise Arctis nova 5 is better than these. Comfort + sound cloud 3 wireless.
I just got one and love it!
I have an Arctis Nova 5X and works perfectly on Linux. I paid around 200EUR.
I've had the Arctis Nova 5P for PlayStation 5, for a couple of months, and it's been working great so far. It's very comfortable to wear and it has a metal reinforced metal headband so it isn't prone to cracking like other headsets. If you can get it on sale its a great bang for buck
Nope. I regret spending the money on mine, wish I had have just bought the Microsoft Xbox branded ones again instead. Constant sound issues, not as many features as my old ones, constantly having to resync them to my console as they keep desyncing and have to have a dongle connected to my console to use them... Completely regret my purchase.
