SteelSeries Arctis 7 Wireless Gaming Headset Review

Audio/Others by stefan @ 2017-05-25

With the launch of the Arctis 7 Gaming Headset, SteelSeries goes one step further and integrates wireless connectivity, long-lasting autonomy from a single charge but also a more advanced USB transmitter for connecting 3rd party sound sources or playback to other stereo devices. By manually adjusting the provided equalizer, we can fine-tune the output in order to fall in line with our preferences. Thanks to the proven S1 40mm speaker drivers, the headset can produce a decent amount of bass, which is beneficial when playing lots of action games.

Further down we can observe the Power Button, which does also integrate a RGB LED for signaling the charge state of the battery ( Green = 100-50%, Yellow = 49-20%, Red 19-10%, Red (fast blink) = 9-1%):

Let’s move along to the left cup and see what we’ve got!

We are dealing again with a retractable bidirectional microphone, which does come with a frequency response between 100Hz and 6500Hz, a sensitivity of -48db and an impedance of 2200Ohm:

On the top area of the microphone, we do have a red Mute LED, which is handy to work with during gaming tournaments or Skype conferences:

Moving on, we can spot a microphone mute button, but also a Volume wheel:

Further down, we do have the Mobile Cable port, but also one Headphone share jack:

Finally, we will get to see the Micro-USB Charging port, which is also used for performing firmware updates:
