Universal console support, great battery life, and a powerful companion app make this one of the best gaming headsets I've tested in a while.
Support for Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, and more via USB-C dongle. Battery life is longer than most competitors. Companion app is so easy to use, I wish all SteelSeries headsets supported it. Reasonably priced.
Can't listen to Bluetooth and 2.4-GHz audio at the same time. Bluetooth audio drains battery faster.

Same drivers, no simultaneous 2.4GHz/Bluetooth connectivity.
Lots of connectivity options ; Very comfortable ; Can use mobile app to change settings without connecting to a PC
Suffers from SteelSeries connection issues ; Loud/multilayered audio overwhelms drivers ; No analog connection
The Arctis Nova 5 is a good option if you're looking for a budget-friendly wireless gaming headset that can also double as a lifestyle headset.
