SteelSeries Arctis Nova Headsets Are Discounted During Prime Day 2025

The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5 offers up to 60 hours of battery life, a companion app that lets you customize its performance, a retractable microphone, and 40mm audio drivers. The headset supports Bluetooth and wired USB-C connections. Multiple models are available, each offering different platform support. The standard Arctis Nova 5 and Nova 5P both support wireless connections to PC, PlayStation, Switch, and mobile. The 5X, however, supports wireless connections on Xbox, PC, PlayStation, PC, and mobile. That makes the Nova 5X the one to get if you’re worried about cross-platform support, as it’s compatible with the most devices.

• SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5 Wireless (PC, PS5, PS4, Switch, Mobile) -- $105 ($150)
• SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5P Wireless (PS5, PS4, PC, Switch, Mobile) -- $105 ($150)
• SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5X Wireless (Xbox, PC, PS5, PS4, Switch, Mobile) -- $105 ($150)

The Arctis Nova 7 lineup is also discounted during Prime Day, and it's a marked step up in quality from the Arctis 5, holding the title as our current overall favorite gaming headset on all platforms. It offers a steel headband with the Arctis Nova's characteristic suspension padding, four points of adjustment, rotating earcups, and memory foam earcup cushions. Battery life is a bit worse at 38 hours, but you’re trading battery life for better audio, support for simultaneous game and mobile audio, and a headset that just feels a cut above its cheaper sibling. Like the Nova 5, the Nova 7 comes in multiple variants with different platform support; the &X is the only one that supports Xbox consoles.

• SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7P Wireless - Black (PS5, PS4, PC, Switch, Mobile) -- $150 ($200)
• SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7P Wireless - White (PS5, PS4, PC, Switch, Mobile) -- $150 ($200)
• SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7X Wireless - Black (Xbox, PS5, PS4, PC, Switch, Mobile) -- $150 ($200)
• SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7X Wireless - White (Xbox, PS5, PS4, PC, Switch, Mobile) -- $150 ($200)

Finally, there's the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro, which is our pick for the Best Premium Wireless Gaming Headset, and that’s even more true when it’s just $323. Offering excellent noise cancellation, support for Tempest 3D Audio and Microsoft Spatial Audio, a retractable microphone, and ultra-plush earcups, it’s a well-rounded companion for all types of games.

Unlike the built-in rechargeable batteries of the Nova 5 and 7 lines, the Nova Pro Wireless uses hot-swappable batteries. So long as you always have one of its two included batteries charging, you can continuously swap them out for unlimited wireless use. The headset connects to your devices via Bluetooth or the included 2.4GHz USB base station. The Base station also sports an OLED screen that lets you quickly toggle its settings like EQ, noise cancellation, mic side tone, and more. Once again, three versions are available, each with separate device support.

• SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless - White (PS5, PS4, PC, Switch, Mobile) -- $323 ($380)
• SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless - Black (PS5, PS4, PC, Switch, Mobile) -- $323 ($380)
• SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless (Xbox) - White (Xbox, PS5, PS4, PC, Switch, Mobile) -- $323 ($380)
