Popular SteelSeries Gaming Headset Arctis Nova 3P Now Discounted

SteelSeries' wireless gaming headset, the Arctis Nova 3P, is currently discounted in three of its four available color options, according to tech outlet Wired.

The headset normally fluctuates between $90 and $110, but buyers can now get it for $90, with cheaper color options such as white making the deal even better. The lowest price, $60, is available for the aqua color version at Woot, an Amazon-owned discount retailer, though purchases there come with only a three-month warranty instead of the standard one-year coverage.

Works across multiple devices

The Arctis Nova 3P comes in two versions — one built for Xbox and one for PlayStation. The Xbox version also works with PlayStation consoles, while the PlayStation version does not work with Xbox. Both versions can be used wirelessly or wired with computers, phones, and the Nintendo Switch.

Reviewer's experience

The Wired writer, who recently took over testing for the outlet's gaming headset guide, bought the headset in March for the full $100 price and has used it daily since. She reports around 35 hours of battery life, a clear-sounding microphone, comfortable ear cups, and a lightweight overall design. Her main complaint is that the microphone's pop cover tends to come off easily. Switching between multiple devices can also be somewhat cumbersome without using the included USB-C dongle. The headset has a companion app with game-specific presets, such as for Fortnite and Grand Theft Auto, though she has not used it herself.
