Avoid at this price

Comfortable
Sonar
Easy to use
Duration

After years of enjoying the Gen 1 Arctis Nova 7, I had to buy a Gen 2. The quality is a step down, but the comfort is an improvement.

Sonar is an option to enhance your immersion while gaming. It's the built-in version of 7.1 surround sound. A fantastic piece of software.

The biggest drawback is that for this price, you'd expect a better microphone. It's truly awful. If you don't have a standalone microphone, avoid this device. You're not doing your friends any favors.

The worst part is a high-pitched squeal in the right earcup. I don't know exactly what's causing it. Sometimes it goes away on its own, sometimes I have to turn on Bluetooth and it goes away temporarily. Other times, it comes back. Whether I use the headphones wirelessly or wired, this high-pitched squeal keeps recurring. If you don't have music playing, it's very noticeable and incredibly annoying. After Googling, it turns out this is a problem everywhere. It's a device-specific issue.

I would never buy these headphones again just for the high-pitched sound. Unfortunately, I threw the packaging away the same day, and now I'm stuck with them.

Great product!

Beautiful design
Good fit
Great sound
Absolutely no downsides!

I also had Gen 1, which I already thought was great. After 5 years, I purchased Gen 2. I find this one even better than the first version. The first version was a bit heavy; I don't even feel this one on.

Great headset to replace the Arctis 9!

Very good sound
Ease of control
Light on the head
The microphone is difficult to remove when it is neatly stored.

Top headset, very handy for gaming (PC perspective). Connects via Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz simultaneously. Very good sound (7.1 surround).

Before this, I had the Steelseries Arctis 9 (DRR-less). I actually wanted that one again, but unfortunately, it was broken at one of the ear attachment points. But ultimately, I am happier with the new purchase, the Nova 7 Gen 2.
