As part of its Cyber Week Savings Event, Dell is offering a bonus $100 Dell eGift Card when you purchase the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless gaming headset for $349.99. As long as you use the gift card, you're basically paying only $249.99 for the headset. That matches the best price we've seen for Steelseries' top of the line wireless gaming headset. This is a fantastic headset with great sound quality, comfortable ergonomics, and rarely seen features in gaming headsets like active noise cancelling, hot-swappable rechargeable battery packs and a separate control center with a beefy volume dial and OLED display.
Note that this is the Xbox model that's compatible with the Xbox, PS5, and PC.
SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless Gaming Headset with Active Noise Cancellation and Dual Swappable Batteries
The SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro is, in our opinion, the best gaming headset of 2023 so far. It combines excellent sound quality with comfortable ergonomics, a high-performance mic, and unique yet extremely practical features. One of the biggest standout features of the SteelSeries Nova Pro wireless headset is the incredible hot-swappable battery system. SteelSeries was generous enough to even includes two batteries; one that's in use in your headset and the other that's charging in the included DAC controller. This way you'll get the best of both worlds: glorious wireless freedom and no waiting to recharge.
The SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro is also one of few wireless gaming headsets with built-in active noise cancellation. It's not as robust as dedicated noise cancelling headphones, but it's enough to cancel out whatever distractions are nearby during your gaming sessions, like the noises coming from your PC when it's running at 100% with all fans at full tilt.
Some other welcome features include adjustable telescoping arms (in addition to the elastic headband) and leatherette ear cushions for a better customized fit. The earcups are smaller in size so that they can easily create a seal around your ears for better noise isolation and thus better audio quality. In terms of wireless connectivity, the Nova Pro connects to both 2.4GHz WiFi as well as Bluetooth. In fact, you can utilize both connections simultaneously, for example to your PC and to your phone.
