I hope you review the Atlas Air first. Been really looking forward to an open back wireless headset for a long time now and already have it on pre-order so I'm hoping it's as good at FPS as the Stealth Pros while also having a really nice microphone 🤞🏼

Hi I hope you play on pc because these atlas are mostly for pc I'm rocking the nova pro wireless fir my ps5 and the astro a50x but haven't touched the astro a50x since I've been using the nova pro wireless I have the new white edition nova pro decked out in the snow white wicked cushions and the snow white silicone band and side plates awesome if you can afford them astro a50x too much bass so I don't think these new turtle beach are going to outshine the nova pro white edition I don't want to downgrade but stay safe and happy gaming to all

Hey sorry to bug ya man but I just recently got the nova 7p for pc even though it's for playstation. Specifically the destiny version bc it was on sale for 110 bucks. It's already back to like 170. I am still wondering though, if that was stupid and the 5 is better with more battery life and a newer device...? I originally assumed the 7 had different compnents or something but it seems they are basically identical? Great videos thanks for the help.

FYI for all Xbox Series owners, you can play Spotify and possibly other streaming audio apps simultaneously with your game and have full control of volume balance between both. Just run your game, press the Xbox button, select the audio streaming service in the menu, press the xbox button and go back to your game while keeping music in the background.

The difference in the mic quality between the Nova 7 and Nova 5’s is mad crazy, My SteelSeries 7p+ Headphones just quit on me and picked up the Nova 5’s and my god they are amazing . UPDATE: Returned Arctis Nova 5’s and went with Arctis Nova 7’s and they are amazing. The fact i can use bluetooth and 2.4 Audio at the same time is amazing. Mic isn’t as bad as i thought.

My 7x broke due to carelessness, being able to simultaneously hear your game + talk over your phone is nice for a while but playing online games that has built in voice chat function like GTA V - you will lose the simultaneous feature so if I'm talking to someone on my phone, I need to switch off my bluetooth or hang up in order to use voice chat in PC game. I'll go try 5x this time. Thanks for the great comparison.

I was in the same boat decision wise just last week when my 2yr old got a hold of my 7X and broke them. I was using my old back up Nova 1 model and realized the 5 is very similar to them build wise. I got the Nova 5 for $110 on sale then paid $30 for the Wicked Cushions Freeze. Absolutely pleased with them as they sound identical to my old 7X but fit my smaller head much more sect. Also my friends told me right away that the microphone was much clearer.

@@dyunjiiee Yes I returned it to Bestbuy and they gave me my money back. The Nova 5 is an ok headset. i dont know if I would recommend it as the audio is spotty. I am guessing the 2.4ghz interreference is the reason. Everything in my house runs on tha band and the audio often crackles which is not good at all. My old Nova 7s with the metal cans may not have been as good sounding but they had solid audio without the crackling and interference. The Nova 5s seem like a much cheaply made product. i would give 7 out of 10.

I have the nova 7p and have for about a year. Added the wc ear pads and headband. But my biggest complaint is the loose fit. I have a small head, so when I put my head just down they slide right off. Also I've been told the mic picks up the baby monitors on stream amd in party chat. The other thing the nova 5 doesn't have is a 3.5mm wired capability. It's important to fight wireless interference

I have the Artics pro wireless and it has been amazing for 5yrs and just started going out and I was so crushed I went out and grabbed the SteelSeries gaming buds and those are nice 👍🏾 to game with as well, though the mic could be better they do the trick and you can swap from Bluetooth to 2.4 with a tap of the button. SteelSeries will be my go to forever if their quality remains as is! I think 🤔 I’ll purchase some turtle beaches as well since I’ve never owned any.

Had 7p for a month, sent them back and got nova 5x for PS5 due to the better mic and app support However, I'm not happy with them already and gonna go back to nova 7p because: 1. Headband fits more tight on head and I have a large head, , I get headaches in a hour with nova 5. The all plastic has less clamping vs metal 7 band. 2. Elastic head band is cheaper and doesn't fit as good as nova 7, its too long and allows less adjustments. 3. Ear coverings are cheaper and more rough feeling on skin, not as soft as nova 7 4. App has a hard time connecting to headset if you don't follow exact steps 5. Setting custom eq still requires pc connection, cannot be done on app.

Which one would be better for my situation? I can only play PC games during work while waiting for customer calls. Should I go for the Nova 7, or would the Nova 5 be a better choice? I could just switch to Bluetooth for calls when using the Nova 5, and it’s much cheaper with better mic quality. Please help me decide, thank you!

If you want to call use the mic headset (switch dongle to bt instantly) then get the nova 5, cuz its got better bluetooth 5.3 (vs 5.0) and miles ahead better mic out of the box

Is there any reason to go with the X version if I don't own a Xbox and probably never will? Also an important thing to mention is that the Nova 5 can't be used wired while the Nova 7 can.

Hey! I'm a big fan of your videos, they've really help me a lot. So I have a question, is there a notorious difference between the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5 and the Arctis 7P+? I've been having trouble deciding between these two 😫 which ones are better regarding sound and features like bluetooth and/or app control?

Bought logitech headphones probably 2 years ago after watching tons of your review videos about different ones. Great headphones but recently broke its plastic and now looking for new ones can you make a video on the best headphone for FPS gaming like CS2, Valorant and story games under 150 usd wired and wireless both somehow only logitech are ones selling wireless in my country at the same price point as USA where as the hyperx, razor etc the wireless versions sell for 2x prices.

I have the 7+ its an amazing headset i got a nova 5 for my ps5 but the s version but im going to return it and get a 5x because it has the valoume rocker but i dont think playstaion supports it or not , if you are on pc with sonar its going to be amazing on 7+ it does magic but nova 5 mic is better on pc you are not going to notice the difference, the main reason i wanted the 5 on playstation is because of battery life on 3d pulse is bs ( the elite dosent have the game/chat volume rocker so its a down grade in my opinion
