[@effinjamieTT]

the Pulse headset is awful compared to these, once you try them its like night and day.

Really enjoyed this review. Been looking for an alternative to the official Pulse 3D headset from PlayStation and this is definitely a nice upgrade. Love the mic quality and ability to mute it from the controller.

[@Buzzelll]

Got these for my birthday and I must admit I’m very impressed. They feel very good and sturdy, also the fact that I can have the option of hearing myself down the mic is a big thing so I know I’m not talking too loud. Deffo worth it if you are looking for a higher tier gaming headset.

[@utilityaccount8514]

The autoswitching auxilliary ports on the dongle of the original Arctis 7 were the defining feature in an ocean of headsets that basically do the same thing. Without that I'm not sure. USB-C is not really a feature, it's an expectation.

I’m still rocking my Arctis Pro Wireless and I don’t think I’ll ever use anything else until a new version of these come out. The clarity of the 3D and sound profiles are game changers for any kind of games. The only thing that made it better was fleather ear muffs.

They literally removed the best feature of the Arctis 7. The volume slider that goes between voice and game. What a letdown. I'm primarily a PC user and this has been literally the best part about this headset.

[@Kr1sVr]

I think it's because Playstation doesn't support it on 3rd party headset, and this model is literally made for playstation. What you're looking for is Actis 7+, same headset shown in video but non-playstation model with chatmix. You can still connect it to PS5, but chatmix wont work.

Another great video, a few things to unpick from this 1) the mic sounds great compared to the Pulse 3D (I had no idea the mic was so bad on Sony’s official headset! 2) does the usb C dongle cover half of the front usb A port?? 3) what is the 3D audio like on these? I have the pulse 3D and the Steelseries Arctis pro wireless and I can’t seem to hear much difference with the 3D audio. And lastly 4) what is that divot on your wall behind the PS5??

[@Rolly_951]

That is not a headset issue, i had the same problem and that is because you have the dongle and the memory hd close to each other and interfere with the wireless connection. Use a extended cable to the hd to move it away.

Were the 7p+ much better than the gold?

[@Rolly_951]

@@Kajanifoe yes in every single aspect. But the only downside to the 7p+ is that it's not as loud as the gold wireless. I even went online to tune up the volume and there isn't anything to make it loud. At full volume on the 7p+ is probably like 3/4 volume of the gold wireless.

[@BrandonGavin_EDC]

Great review! I think I’ll pick these up for my new PS5.

[@Imlogini]

Hey there, so after hours of research for the best headset for my ps5, i went with the arctis 7p+. Mainly because of the performance and immersion presets i saw online. Well once i got home, i plugged in the headset to play with the presets only to be suprised that for the 7p+ they’re completely different than the 7p! I am a complete newbie when it comes to equalizer settings, i have no idea what all the numbers and values mean, that’s why i was really looking forward to being able to just throw on a preset and game. The only ones i see on here now are bass-boost, smiler, focus, and flat. I really wanted to use the immersion preset from the 7p for my story games but it’s not even an option on this version of the headset. What values could i enter for the same experience you’d get with the immersion preset on the 7p on my 7p+? thx

[@Juice_VI]

Smiley is pretty close to immersion. Try that out and see if you like it.

Hey SpawnPoiint, between this headset and the relatively new Arctis Nova 7, do you know if there are any significant differences in audio as their website says? While I like the design of the 7P+, it seems the Nova 7 just has more features. Would love to see a comparison video of the two if possible.

[@GunzyHD]

Biggest difference is the Nova 7 has Blueooth and 2.4ghz which can be used at the same time. So you can listen to your pc or phone via bluetooth, and still hear the playstation.

I don't mind the game/chat volume adjustment not being present on third party headsets as I play single player games only on PS5. I am more concern about the sound quality rather than anything else. Comfort of using the headset, not so much. But I like the fabric cushion cover than the synthetic leather as they peal off eventually. btw, I have the arctis pro wireless on PC, and I know what you are talking about when you mentioned how comfortable it feels when wearing it for long gaming sessions

I have both pair one in black being the 7p+ and the white 7p I juggle both when they die I love both kind of expensive but well worth it when it comes sound and quality great review also Happy New Yr.

[@melljones8876]

Alright will do Thank you so much

[@nielsdebaets6972]

Do both headsets have the same max volume or does the 7p get louder? I just returned the 7p+ because it's too quiet ...

[@melljones8876]

@@nielsdebaets6972 I would say the 7p are a little louder but I also didn’t download the Artic 7p+ settings to my laptop to try an tweak some things also to me I do use my 7p just a little more then the 7p+

[@nielsdebaets6972]

@@melljones8876 to give a heads-up, I bought a arctis 7 2019 (so pc version) and there is no white noise AND it gets noticeably louder than the 7p+ I had. No idea how this is even possible but the older non PlayStation version works better than the new PlayStation version... on the PlayStation...

[@emeresbestres1]

Would you confirm if turning the side tone wheel on the headset adjusts the volume? Or do I have to adjust the side tone volume on PC?

[@gregguziar3469]

@Spawnpoiint- Great Review- What are your Warzone settings for both 7P and 7P+? I read not to use 3D audio with the 7P. Has that changed? Also it looks like the EQ for the 7P+ is more robust. would love to see your sound settings for both. Thanks!

[@SpawnPoiint]

Thank you. I need to look at what settings I’m using and share it. I don’t use 3D audio either.

Sold! Cheers. My old A50s just died. These seem like a good replacement

I play on PS5 but I got the 7+ instead because I don’t care for sidetone & don’t really like the blue colour scheme. The two headsets from what I can determine are exactly the same other than right dial does game/chat mix on 7+ instead of sidetone on 7P+. Only game/chat dial does not work on PS5 but if I ever want to use them on PC then I have the chat/game audio dial & sidetone within steelseries engine app and also 7.1 Surround options which the 7P+ does not have. Personally I can’t see a reason for the 7P+ existing alongside the 7+ for the same price. The 7P+ should be a little bit cheaper because it does not have 7.1 surround or Chat/game volume mix baked into the Steelseries engine app if you ever decide you wanted to use it on PC. The 7+ is more versatile and isn’t missing any features on PC or PS5. But on another Topic have you had any problems with the audio cutting out? As soon as mine get to 50% power the audio becomes very unstable and cuts out a lot and some times have to turn the headset off and on again to regain audio. This is on Warzone though and I’m hoping it’s an issue with Warzone and not the headset because I really like it. They are so comfy & battery life is unbelievable.

Do you play cod? If so how is it for cod?

[@ryanmcqueen6909]

@@SLOWDOWN863 it’s very good but I’m having issues with my audio cutting out so I’m sending it back for a replacement. Hopefully the next will be fine. Wireless headsets I’ve used are G Pro X wireless, Corsair HS80 & Audeze Penrose. I prefer the Arctic 7+. You can save custom equaliser preset to the headset when using PS5. Not many headsets can do that for this price point. So audio can be played with until it’s perfect for you. Oh and it’s just unbelievably comfortable.

[@SLOWDOWN863]

@@ryanmcqueen6909 thanks so much . So would u recommend getting these?

[@denzelcarty4986]

Are you still able to mute the mic via the controller with the 7+?

[@ryanmcqueen6909]

@@denzelcarty4986 Yes, I never touch the one on the headset. With the 7+. Only thing that doesnt work is the game/chat dial on the ear cup which Sony do not allow on headsets. So instead on the 7P+ the ear cup dial is mic sidetone adjust which Sony allow. However on the 7+ the mic sidetone can be adjusted or turned off in the Steelseries windows app on PC & saved to the headset. So if you decide later you want to use the 7+ on PC you gain the added benefit of the Game/chat dial on the ear cup & 7.1 surround which you wouldn’t have on the 7P+. The 7P+ should be a little cheaper imo. To truly keep it the same price as the 7+ but call it a fully fledged PlayStation marketed headset it should have had working Game/audio Dial on the ear cup. As Sony have not allowed it I can’t really see why it’s marketed in such a way as it doesn’t offer anything different than any other headset. Other than having a PlayStation blue theme.

[@TheFIlthy420]

Do you use your headset for every kinda of game you play or just online games? I basically just play story driven games will these be good for single player games too?

[@ricardomanuel2812]

which are the best? These from the video or the Sony Pulse Elite?

[@IbrahimVFX1]

arctis 7p+ for sure
