At $150, the Arctis 7 is the most expensive of the SteelSeries line of headphones. Could you get away with the Arctis 5 or Arctis 3? That depends on your needs. If wireless is high on your list of needs, though, there's really no other way to go.PC-based...

Not-a-one,
SteelSeries has brought us once again one of the best lines in gaming headsets the Arctis. I received the Arctis 7 and I was excited to compare them to the wired Arctis 5. I was pleasantly surprised that it sounded just as good as the wired version. If yo...

If you're looking for a pair of gaming headphones that are great not only for gaming but will fit nicely outside of your game time, give the SteelSeries Arctis 7 a look. They've been out of stock pretty frequently, but that just reaffirms what I've been s...

In terms of sound reproduction, the Arctis 7 is about as good as it gets when it comes to an affordable, high-performance, wireless gaming headset. Without a hands on review of SteelSeries' other wireless headset, the Siberia 840, we can't say if the Arct...
Great sound, Comfortable fit, Reasonable price, Seamless wireless
Fine-tuning music takes some work, Roundabout phone and speaker functionality
Considering that wireless headsets can run hundreds of dollars, and PC-centric ones often leave out important features like 3.5mm jacks, it's refreshing that the Arctis 7 offers the complete package for only $50 more than its wired counterpart. While some...
