SteelSeries Arctis GameBuds for Xbox/PC/PS5/Switch/Mobile — Quick-Switch 2.4GHz+Bluetooth 5.3 — Active Noise Cancelling — Mobile App — Water Resistant IP55 — 40H Battery with Qi Charging Case - Black

I picked up these earbuds because I was looking for a portable wireless gaming headset solution that would retain the full quality audio quality while being in a voice chat or Discord call. These earbuds totally hit that mark. I normally use bluetooth headphones that while sounding good when playing something solo, if I get into a call or play a game where the mic is active, the sound quality of any bluetooth headphones goes way down to being almost un-usable. With these earbuds, you can play a game and hear your buddies without a compromise to sound quality! From my experience, they are decently comfortable. I'm not a fan of in-ear, earbuds like these. I can generally wear them for about 2-3 hours before I need a break. I prefer the comfort of Airpods Pro/Bose QC Ultra/AirpodsGen3s much better to these. Even with the smallest tips, I get some fatigue in my ear canals. With that being said, the ANC is pretty low. It might be adding a little bit of cancelation, but you're likely to get the same cancelation because these block your ear canals. Nothing close to Bose or Apple's ANC. The transparency mode is decent. My main annoyance with transparency on these is they have a constant hiss. Seems like you are outside with a constant low breeze in your ears. You can kind of place things in the room, but its no where near Apples transparency mode. I would give it a functional rating. You can carry on a conversation without having to pull out a bud. With Apple's AirPod Pros however, I feel that there is no loss of hearing. Those feel like you don't have anything blocking your ears. Good to have, but not up to par with premium bluetooth headphone offerings if you were hoping to replace those. Now for call quality. The mics are definitely really good for sitting at your desk. People usually say that I sound better than my built-in laptop mic. But not better than my Yeti mic. These aren't super good when you are moving around. Once you start moving around they seem to block out your voice or make you sound far away as you move your head. That being said, because you are using a dongle, these offere a really low latency signal, with minimal quality loss. This I would say are the biggest strength of these earbuds. Now for the subject of audio quality. When playing games, the audio quality is pretty good. I was able to place enemy movement around me when playing Hell Divers 2. I also did enjoy the cinematic feel of Final Fantasy 16. The audio quality for music I would say is decent. Its definitely not as good as my Bose QC Ultras. One song I used for direct comparison, was Persona 5's Beneath The Mask (Rain Edition). With the Bose headphone, I was able to pick up the strumming of the guitar, and place each instrument as it game into the song in the room. Each strum I felt I was able to make out the picking of each chord from the guitar. With the Steelseries buds, it seems that as more instruments came into the song, I lost quality of any instrument that was already playing in the track. The little details became harder to discern and the overall sound while not bad, became more muddied out. If you don't listen to music nearly that closely, you probably will find these great with Punchy preset. But for me it was definitely a big hit to quality in comparison to my current daily driver headphones. For me these were purchased to serve one purpose. To have a set of gaming headphones that kept higher quality game sound while being on a call. I am very happy with the functionality that these bring for that. I suspect that if you don't have any headphone you use on the daily, you can probably pick these up and be happy. They are definitely a really versatile set of earbuds that specialize in Gaming. TL:DR If you already have some Sony/Apple/Bose headphone you use regularly, these are not going to be a great replacement for those. The strength is solely a gaming headset. If you don't have those type of headphones, or are looking for only gaming headphones, you won't be disappointed with this set.

I wanted to love these. My first pair sounded absolutely horrible, with ZERO response under around 1000hz. I returned those as defective and got brand new replacements. But after testing across three devices (PC via dongle, Mac via dongle, and iPhone via Bluetooth), the experience is identical: The sound has an extreme high-pass characteristic — everything below ~1 kHz feels gutted. • Voices sound thin, papery, and hollow. • Explosions and ambient game audio have no body whatsoever. • Music is unlistenable — worse than a cheap 1980s landline telephone. • Even after adjusting EQ, switching presets, disabling features, and testing before and after updating firmware, nothing fixes it. • The Bluetooth mode reproduces the exact same issues, which confirms this is not a dongle, driver, or PC problem. These aren’t “not audiophile.” These sound outright broken - LITERALLY broken. I own and regularly use other SteelSeries products, including the Nova Pro line, and they’re excellent. But whatever tuning choice was made for these earbuds renders them nearly unusable for anyone who wants anything beyond directional footstep cues. What makes this more frustrating: I wanted these for competitive gaming. I wanted the low latency wireless mode. I wanted the convenience. But the audio quality is so heavily stripped of low and mid frequencies that basic dialogue in games or videos sounds like it’s coming out of a clock radio submerged in a cereal bowl. Or if this is a manufacturing problem, both pairs, new and sealed in box, that I tried, suffered from the same thing. So this defect is across an entire manufacturing batch. In either case, these are a HARD PASS.

Suenan bastante bien, el ANR filtra el ventilador de mi laptop que es el principal motivo de haberlos comprado (pero no es el mejor)… Eso y que no quería unos de diadema! El case se siente barato pero la manera en cómo se acomodan se siente muy bien! Se cargan de manera inalámbrica y por usb C. Las instrucciones de emparejarlos no es muy clara por el tema de la opción de bluetooth y dongle pero logré emparejarlos…. La actualización del firmware es solo por computadora (digo a mi no me molesta xq los uso solo para jugar con la laptop. Las puntas de silicon no me encantaron (acabo de comprar unas de memory foam que espero le queden ya que al momento de quitármelos, la punta del auricular derecho se voltea completamente y se sienten muy delgados… Les compré una funda para proteger el case de rayaduras o caídas y mejoró bastante el feeling.

Good

Terrible in my experience anyway. Worked great for 2 weeks, sound got distorted then. Bought a €5 pair off temu and used them ever since. Trying these again. Take the temu pair over these any day.

Necesitaba unos auriculares gaming para cualquier plataforma: si me llevo el portátil para jugar con amigos, o bien si quiero estar en la cama con la Switch 2, necesitaba unos auriculares con cancelación de sonido y que se pudieran llevar fácilmente. Y a ser posible que fueran bastante multiplataforma. También era importante el tema que no fueran Bluetooth, o mejor dicho, que se pudieran conectar con un dongle para evitar problemas de latencia (ya que los que usaba, eran Bluetooth y había una latencia más que considerable, con lo cual en FPS se nota bastante si escuchas pasos o alguien que se acerca). Tras leer muchas reviews, me decanté por estos. Tenía dudas acerca de la versión que comprar (blancos, negros, versión Playstation, versión Xbox). Y un poco lo que he visto es lo siguiente: - La versión Playstation funciona para PC, Playstation, Switch 2. - La versión Xbox funciona para los anteriores sistemas y además para Xbox. Estos, en el dongle, tienen un interruptor para elegir si queremos usarlos en Xbox o en los otros sistemas. Principalmente mi miedo era si funcionarían con la Switch 2. Y sí, puedo decir que los versión Playstation, funcionan con Switch 2 y PC que es con lo que lo uso. Y funcionan MUY bien! Son pequeños, cómodos, fáciles de transportar. La caja es elegante, y aunque se resbala fácilmente de las manos, con un poco de cuidado lo tenemos solucionado. Decir que son cómodos. Parece que no los lleves puestos, apenas pesan, y tras sesiones de un par de horas de juego, no notas dolor o molestia alguna (al menos en mi caso). La calidad de sonido, muy bien. Teniendo en cuenta que son unos earbuds, tenemos que ser realistas y saber en qué terreno se mueven. Disponen de una app en el móvil la cual nos permite tocar algunos parámetros (ecualización, modo de uso, límite de volumen, etc..). Decir que por probar, conecté el adaptador al puerto USB-C del teléfono y lo detecta, como podéis ver en las imágenes de la aplicación. También tenemos un gran listado de ecualización con ajustes optimizados según el juego (se puede ver en la foto). En el momento de hacer este análisis hay 261 juegos. Si lo preferimos, podemos elegir nuestro estilo personal de ecualización. La cancelación de sonido es buena, no excelente. Eso quiere decir que en entornos ruidosos seguiremos escuchando ese ruido de fondo. En cualquier caso, normalmente juego en casa y es un entorno bastante tranquilo por lo que activo la cancelación por defecto para centrarme más en el juego. Estoy realmente encantado con ellos. Funcionan perfectamente. La calidad de sonido es muy buena y lo mejor, para mi, son la ausencia de latencia y la comodidad al usarlos. Los recomiendo, sí, al 100%. Son pequeños, fácilmente transportables. Eso sí, entiendo que el precio, puede ser una limitación y que para muchos, por este mismo precio, elegirán unos auriculares grandes. Sin embargo, en mi caso, preferí decantarme por estos ya que me resultan más cómodos y se transportan fácilmente.
