While there are a ton of different gaming headsets to choose from, with their own strengths and weaknesses, one has stood out among the crowded field. My favorite gaming headset for most people, the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3, is currently marked down as low as $90 at Amazon, a $20 break from the full price.

My favorite thing about the Arctis Nova 3 is their fit, which I think are the most comfortable of any gaming headset I’ve tested so far. They’re super lightweight, which makes them great for long gaming sessions and larger heads like mine, and the earcups are a light, squishy mesh that’s breathable without sacrificing too much in sound isolation. Despite the super lightweight build, the battery life doesn’t disappoint, with these cans lasting around 30 hours on a single charge.

They sound excellent for both gaming and mixed media usage, largely thanks to the SteelSeries app, which has a huge library of game-specific equalizer presets ready to go for any situation. That more than makes up for the lack of Dolby Atmos, and the spatial audio implementation is still great even without the official stamp of approval from Dolby. On the input side, the microphone does a surprisingly good job of filtering out unwanted noise, like a surprise sneeze or my dog barking at the mail carrier. I wouldn’t use it for any professional recording sessions, but it sounds clearer than most other gaming headsets at the price.

While the Arctis Nova 3 have great compatibility with all of your modern major gaming consoles, including PC and Switch 2, there are two different versions to choose from, so you’ll want to make sure you grab the right one for you. The Nova 3X supports all systems, including Xbox and PlayStation consoles, while the 3P lacks Xbox support. Unless you’ve committed to never buying Sony for some reason, I’d recommend going for the 3X, which are currently marked down to $90 in white. If you’re a dedicated PlayStation gamer, or want a splash of color, the Aqua Nova 3P are also available for a slightly higher $97 in Aqua or $100 in Lavender.
