Dongle is wide for most laptops; A little big; Muddy bass ; The SteelSeries Arctis 1 Wireless is the first gaming headset to use a USB Type-C dongle. Oh, and it sounds great and feels good, too.

The SteelSeries Arctis 1 Wireless is the first gaming headset to use a USB Type-C dongle. Oh, and it sounds great and feels good, too.

Decently comfortable. Comes with a Y-splitter. Excellent microphone performance.

Bass and treble delivery varies significantly across users. Sensitive to glasses. Lacks software support for customization options. Cheap, plasticky build.

The SteelSeries Arctis 1 are alright for neutral sound. While they fall a bit flat of reproducing a thumpy bass, they bring a bit of boom to their sound. Their mid-range is also well-balanced and neutral, although their treble is underemphasized across...

Accurate audio reproduction. Very good 25-hour battery life. USB-C dongle can be used with compatible Android devices. Can be used with every gaming console. Decent boom microphone.

Unstable and wobbles with head movement. Plasticky build that feels a bit cheap. Inconsistent audio delivery across users. Poor noise isolation. Sub-par soundstage.

Same Arctis design ; Comfy earcuffs ; Easy to use ; USB-C ; Great sound quality

Fantastic price ; Feel comfy to wear ; Microphone can detach ; Sound quality does the job well

The quality of the microphone needs improvement ; Bass levels too low at times ; The earcups swivel which can cause frustration

It may not be the best quality headset you can choose, but that is expected with the price. However, if you just want something cheap and cheerful that will do the job to an acceptable level. The Steelseries Arctis 1 wireless should be strongly...

High quality audio ; Simple, elegant design ; Superior build quality ; Ample connectivity options

Mic picks up lots of background noise ; Shallow earcups can cramp the ears ; No surround sound effect

SteelSeries' Arctis 1 offers a more affordable wireless option while still delivering a pair of cans that live up to the Arctis name. The headset lacks the ability to detail subtle sound cues, like footsteps. But there are few headsets in this price...

; it's time for a nearly perfect wireless headset to complete the trifecta.

Great sound ; Great battery life ; Comfortable ; Price

Microphone is just okay ; Shallow ear cups

+ 20 hours battery life + Comfortable + Simple, elegant design + Lovely sound + Solid build quality

- Micro-USB charger - No Bluetooth

The Arctis 1 Wireless far exceeded our expectations not just as a wireless headset, but as a wireless headset sneaking under the £99 barrier.
