      Another thing to note, the Xbox version supports PS5 as well. Just that the Xbox version cannot connect to both PC and PS5 at the same time, since one of the USB ports is dedicated for Xbox.
      However the regular USB port supports both PC and PS5
      So which means the Xbox version has the widest compatibility, while the PS5 version would be for those who needs to connect both PC and PS5 simultaneously

    As my personal preference I'm still using the SteelSeries Arctis 1 wireless and after using so many different pairs this is by far my favorite. Even though I own a PS5 I still use my SteelSeries because Sony has yet to beat them as a all around fantastic headset. Even the upgraded Arctis isn't worth it in my opinion, all you get is a few more things but that's all up to the buyer of course. Anyways, Great review! Thanks.

      Been using the arctis 1 wireless for over 2 months and the out of box quality was terrible but tweaking it a bit with the steelseries engine really makes the difference and im loving it( some people like the out of box adjustment but it wasnt for me). The best part is that when you tweak the equaliser the settings are saved within the headset. If your budget is a hundred dollars then go for this headset.

      This is why it's so difficult to choose a proper one for yourself. I have Arctis 1 Wireless, too, which I was gifted. Except that I have had them for years, And it's a mediocre headset. Audio quality is hella average and you just cannot enjoy games audio. Lack of dynamic, flat profile even when adjusted in software, poor bass, closer to lack of it. Build quality is good, comfort is very good, battery backup is good, ergonomy is good. But without audio quality it's all meaningless. Those are good for the price. For a budget headset, it's good. Nothing more. If someone is looking for actual good, without a price tag attached, stay away from them. Especially if you like quality audio, use good studio setups, DAC etc. You won't enjoy playing games in those. It'll feel like headphones for 10 bucks regarding audio quality.

      only headset that allows you to control this feature on the headset itself. Sony done away with independent chat/game audio and now uses this weird mixer. And If you're
      not in a party and choose to use in game chat audio, it is all now going to have to be solely controlled via in game adjustments. It is solely up to games themselves to add this
      feature in there settings.
      If you're talking about the Arctis Pro wireless on the PS5 gotta have an optical audio cable for your game audio out from your TV and set your Transmitter for use on a PS4 then go to your console and change the audio out to chat only instead of all audio to the headset and only then will you have the option to adjust game/chat audio from the headset itself.

    H9 would be fucking awesome if it didn't have choppy audio fresh out the box! I just exchanged it for a steelseries!

True Bluetooth on steel series! I couldn't use my phone with h9 no way to wire up if ever on h9, h9 is loose fit but more comfortable over ear than steel now steel with the throwback removable battery that charges from the little hub you attach to the p5 🤯🤯🤯🤯 holy shit game changer!
