    I have both versions with bumpy in ear ANC mic and the new sleek one. I can definitely say new one has comfort thanks to bump elimination, but old one has MUCH BETTER ANC, I compare them back to back and I don't know why, the new one has very minimal ANC. And searching throught the internet I came across this video, in which you say ANC feels same. Any advice appreciated, am I missing a setting?

    I just purchased this headset but I am running into a problem trying to set it up. I have connected the headset using the information guide, yet when I turn on the headset, the station doesn't detect it and I hear a constant beeping sound. Also, the station doesn't show my battery in the charger charging. First off, the beeping in the headset: is that an indication that the battery is not charged, and if so, would that be why I am unable to pair the headset to the station? I sent in an email to support and they only responded by sending me an RMA number to order a new pack of batteries. So, has anyone else have the problem I am dealing with, and was it the batteries that caused it?

    I play on Xbox so can’t speak for the ps5 but the a50x is more comfortable imo but not by much. The sound quality is noticeably better once you EQ the a50x but the nova pro wireless is still a phenomenal sounding wireless headset. Wish sonar would work on console. The mic on the a50x in my opinion is the best in the wireless class. Bluetooth wise I much prefer the nova pro wireless, it’s just much simpler to use and the way you can fine tune between game and Bluetooth volume is great. Overall if money isn’t an issue I’d grab the a50x but you won’t go wrong with either. I was gonna sell which ever headset I didn’t like but I’m definitely keeping both and will rotate in and out every now and then. If I had to use only one I’m grabbing the a50x due to the sound quality for FPS gaming and mic quality. Hope this helps!

    Nova pros are some of if not the best sounding and feeling headset I have ever owned or used, especially with my Wicked Cushions on them. I have the wired ones but considering upgrading to these because the noise cancellation, the sweet ass color, and im tired of having this damn wire in my way every time I stand up from my Secret Lab chair. I have considered trying a different pair of headphones but i just cant find any that i think will feel better than these. I will say my one big problem that I have noticed with this product is the sound station basically imprinted the home screen onto the stations screen since i didnt mess with the setting very much, that for sure needs to be fixed, I doubt they did but that is a problem. Other than that, this is the best headset I have ever owned

SteelSeries wouldn't go through the trouble of making a revision, only to have a version of that product category release a few weeks later. It will be interesting to see what they release, we've seen mic's and speakers recently; what's next? maybe a Streamdeck-like device.

    It's funny that you just posted a re-review of the Nova Pro Wireless because I actually just returned my pair I just bought a few days ago simply because to my surprise is that Steelseries didn't carry one very important feature from the original Arctis Pro Wireless and that is a "sleep/timeout" display feature. They implemented a dimming timeout, but not an all out blank screen timeout like the old ones. This just baffles me why it's not a feature anymore considering how many people had OLED burn it on the old basestation. Omitting this feature is just crazy to me, and was a deal breaker.

    This comment might not fit here but I wanted to ask a general question about gaming headsets which also may refer to the steelseries here. I watched all your reviews and yet I can´t decide which headset to buy. I figured that my main criteria is the volume control on the headsetls themselves. This might sound weird but hold on. Currently I am using a Sennheiser GSP 350 and the volume control wheel adjusts the volume on the headset itself. I am looking for a headset where I can adjust the volume independently from the windows volume settings

    I would strongly not recommend these headsets. Steel Series has some quality issues with the Arctis Nova Pro. It saddens me as a long user of Steel Series being an owner of each of the top wireless headsets all the way back to the Siberia 800 and H wireless headsets. I've experienced numerous bugs with the Arctis Nova Pro involving super annoying beeping that seems to have no cause but defective software that Steel Series has yet to fix. This is not an uncommon issue and a simple google search will show many people having this issue but it will not come up in any tech review because it takes actual time and use to manifest.
