The SteelSeries Arctis Pro was the pinnacle of gaming headsets in SteelSeries' lineup until the Arctis Nova Pro took the stage. It's packed with standout features, including a standalone base station with a volume knob and OLED display, the ability to pair via Bluetooth and 2.4GHz WiFi simultaneously, and the highly praised **hot-swappable battery system**. This system lets you enjoy uninterrupted wireless play, with one battery in use and the other charging in the base station.
The Arctis Pro's build quality is among the best in SteelSeries' range. It features a lightweight steel and aluminum alloy headband and a comfortable suspension headstrap, perfect for long gaming sessions. The ear cushions use AirWeave performance fabric, similar to that found on the newer Arctis Nova Pro. The ClearCast boom microphone can be retracted when not in use, and the audio quality is exceptional, thanks to the premium 40mm speaker drivers with high-density neodymium magnets, delivering high-resolution sound up to 40,000Hz.
SteelSeries Arctis Pro Review by Matt Elliot
"The SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless stands out with its premium build, comfortable design, and superior sound quality. The innovative battery-swapping feature ensures you're never out of power. While the sound is excellent, the wired Arctis Pro + GameDAC offers slightly better performance for $70 less. Alternatively, the wireless Arctis 7 provides a cost-effective option at less than half the price."
The Arctis Pro was succeeded by the Arctis Nova Pro in 2022. Currently, the best price for a brand new pair of Nova Pros is $270 on Amazon. While the Nova Pro is a fantastic headset with upgrades like active noise cancellation and USB Type-C charging, it's not worth nearly double the cost of the Arctis Pro.
