Before the Arctis Nova Pro launched, the Arctis Pro stood as SteelSeries' most advanced gaming headset. It includes several premium features rarely seen elsewhere: a dedicated base station with OLED display and volume control, simultaneous Bluetooth and 2.4GHz wireless connectivity, and most notably – the revolutionary hot-swappable battery system. This means continuous wireless gameplay without charging downtime, thanks to two included batteries (one in use, one charging).

The Arctis Pro demonstrates outstanding build quality with its steel-reinforced aluminum headband and ultra-comfortable suspension headstrap, ideal for extended sessions. Its AirWeave fabric ear cushions (also featured on newer Nova Pro models) enhance comfort, while the retractable ClearCast microphone ensures clear voice chat. Audiophiles will appreciate the high-fidelity 40mm drivers with neodymium magnets delivering crisp audio up to 40,000Hz.

SteelSeries Arctis Pro Review by Matt Elliot

"The SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless combines premium construction, exceptional comfort, and superb sound quality. Its battery-swapping design eliminates power downtime. While its audio performance is stellar, the wired Arctis Pro + GameDAC offers comparable quality at $70 less. Budget-conscious gamers might prefer the wireless Arctis 7 at under half the price."

Though replaced by the Arctis Nova Pro in 2022 (currently priced at $270 on Amazon), the original Arctis Pro remains an outstanding value. While the Nova Pro offers upgrades like USB-C charging and noise cancellation, its nearly doubled price tag makes the discounted Arctis Pro far more enticing.
