I used to have the same problem with my old Turtle Beach X41s. They connected via 2-4GHz wireless and every few minutes would go through this static to crackling l to popping noises and then stop. The fix is to get into your router and turn off automatic channel selection (5GHz in this case) and then set it on a channel that doesn’t interfere with the headset. Problem now solved, no more drops. **Q: Does this headset also work with PC?** A: Funny the 9 ANS the 9X are exactly the same headset AND same price.. Amazon sells the 9X but not the 9.. with the exception the 9X does not does not come with a USB dongle the 9 does come with one... so with the 9X you have to buy a Xbox USB OR a Bluetooth dongle... they sell the 9 on their website for $199... dont get ripped off ! **Q: Are these ios compatible? a mac book to be exact? i want to use these for going and for zoom calls ony mac** A: Just to add my own piece here, it works fine with my MacBook Pro and I tested it on s friend's MacBook Air. I don't know what's up with the fella the gave the long winded answer about it not working for his MacBook Air. Unless Mac/Apple has developed some new form of Bluetooth, which I haven't heard of yet, it WILL work fine on all Bluetooth compatible devices. Works fine on all my Samsung devices too, which I have for everything else, tablet, phone, etc. **Q: Can you connect this with two devices at the same time (my phone and the xbox)?** A: Yes, but the connection to Xbox is not stable. The headset will randomly disconnect. There is also major audio interference noise feedback from the headset. Even though it connects to both it is not a solid connection. Another thing, if you want to use Bluetooth then the headset has to be turned on 1st, when you do that it also turns on your Xbox. So if you own an Xbox it will turn on every time you try to use the Bluetooth feature on this headset. It had great promises but horrible execution. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Steel Series Arctis Nova 7X *by on Reviewed in the United States December 31, 2024* Bought to replace a Turtle Beach headset that my brother had from Xbox One and had given to me.Set up:The Nova 7X headset was easy to set up; simply adjusted the headstrap where I needed it, plugged the dongle into my Series X with the extension cable provided, and turned on the headset. Just make sure that the toggle on the dongle is set to Xbox for Xbox and USB for everything else (PC, PS5, Switch, etc.) The headset sounds pretty good out of the box, however, seem to be what I would call "tingy" without making adjustments on PC. After I connected to PC, I set up the headset using Sonar on the Steel Series software that's free to download from their site, but I don't think that translated to the xbox. What did, however, was the EQ settings because I set it to Bass Boost and it seems to have gotten rid of the "tingy" sound I was experiencing previously.Battery life:The battery life is phenomenal. I would say getting 38 hours or more is absolutely possible. I have had the headset for over a week now and charged it for the first time last night and it only seemed to take a couple hours to get to full charge. I was wearing the headset throughout the week watching youtube, playing games, etc. trying to get it to die. May vary from person to person as I typically work 9-10 hour days and worked 4 days last week while obviously not using the headset.Microphone:It's a mic. My brother says that he can hear me more clearly than when I wore my previous headset, but it is a Steel Series mic, so take that with a grain of salt.Features:The volume and chat mixer rollers (volume on left ear, chat mixer on right) are recessed which is great for sitting back in a recliner or on a couch and not having to worry about volume getting messed with by previously mentioned furniture (which was a problem for me with the Turtle Beach headset that I upgraded from.) Power, Bluetooth, and Mute buttons respond well and do exactly as they are meant to. Mic retracts into the left ear which is great when you want to watch something and not have a mic in your face. The headstrap and ear cushions have been great in my experience. I wear glasses and the headset feels very comfortable despite this. (In contrast, the Turtle Beach headset kind of dug into and rubbed the top of my head during extended gaming sessions. I also felt the part of my glasses just above my ear getting pushed into my ear by same headset.)Customization:I like that the headstrap, ear cushions, and magnetic side plates can be swapped out. Not only for the customization of it, but also the longevity of being able to swap the headstrap and ear cushions in the event of wear and tear.Weight:Comparable with the Turtle Beach headset, but I'd say the Nova 7Xs are a bit lighter.Conclusion:I am really enjoying the Nova 7X headset so far and I would definitely say it's an excellent choice for a headset, especially at $150 USD. Sound quality, battery life, and comfortability seemed to definitely be in mind when they designed this headset. It certainly feels like a lot of thought was put into this headset by Steel Series. Good job, Steel Series. I look forward to buying more of your products in the future, especially if this much thought of the user's experience is put into them. 10/10. Amazing headset. Amazing experience. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent sound quality, easy to set-up on XBOX & PC, fantastic Range *by on Reviewed in the United States March 24, 2023* It took me a long time to select headphones for XBOX gaming & on-line webinars with the added bonus of bluetooth connectivity to my cellphone. I did a tremendous amount of research which is really difficult because the majority of manufacturers website descriptions are geared towards teenagers - all glitter and noise with meaningless videos. Maybe I am old fashioned but I want specifications like the range of the 2.4ghz connectivity - simple questions right? Can I go outside for a smoke or get a cold soda from the frig without dropping my connection - the vast majority did not list the range of their connectivity or if their app for sound adjustments carried over from PC to console (in my case the Xbox). Fortunately, the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7X has excellent range - I found that standing next to heavy duty electrical devices - like my Samsung Refrigerator caused interference but not a total disconnect, 75' from the plug in dongle. Moving the Dongle from the XBOX 1X to the PC (2' from each other) and flipping the XBOX/PC switch was a breeze, syncing the headphones was a no brainer, just turn headphones on they sync immediately, on board headphone controls took a little getting used to especially the bluetooth on/off and the headphones on/off dual switch is poorly labeled with some raised symbols - they should have used some paint to distinguish which position is bluetooth vs headphone power - I have to get a flashlight and glasses to see the markings. Other than that the headphone mute is a locking pushbutton with a audible tone and a red LED on the microphone to let u know if mic is on or off - REMEMBER to SHUT MIC OFF if you are retracting the microphone back into the headset or all kinds of weird feedback will occur - obviously since mic will pickup what's coming from that side of the headset. I found after messing around with the app that out of the box flat setting was great for most purposes. I have a very high end Dolby ATMOS/DTS:X 7.3.4 surround system so even though the headphones sound decent as compared to a pair of studio quality recording headphones - nothing compares with my home theater speakers. I could wear these headphones for several hours before my ears started to get too warm. Microphone quality on group IP based teleconferences and via bluetooth for telephone calls is excellent and being able to connect to both the Xbox or PC via Quantum 2.0 over 2.4Ghz and to any bluetooth device, in my case my Galaxy phone simultaneously is a welcome feature. Answering a phone call automatically mutes the microphone to the 2.4Ghz connection whether it be the Xbox or the PC.Finally the battery life is pretty amazing - @38 hours for the USB connection only or 26 hours if you have both the USB (2.4Ghz) and the Bluetooth on together. The USB C fast-charge connection on the headphones is very fast with 15-minute charge providing 6 hours of USB time if u are dealing with a completely dead battery - which is an almost impossible situation considering the 38 hour capacity. A real world example is using the headset for 5 hours it took about 15-20 minutes to get it back to 100%.You can customize the appearance of the headset with optional matching metal earcup plates and headband in 4 colors Cherry Red, Mint Green, Lilac & Rose Quartz. It comes with all the cables you will need to charge (USB C male to USB A male - 5'), connect USB C Dongle (including a short USB A male to USB C female to connect to Xbox or to a PC if dongle interferes with PC/Laptop USB C port and other connections), and even a 3.5mm to 3.5mm (4 pin to 5 pin) 4' audio cable to connect headset in analog mode to Xbox controller or other analog audio input/output headphone/mic jack. If you need a splitter cable for the analog connection to separate mic/headphone you would need to purchase that separately it is on Steelcase website as is the color upgrade options. It also comes standard with the breathable cloth earpieces which can also be replaced with the vinyl cups if u wish also optional on Steelcase website. A rather cheap clothlike storage bag comes with headset - it will at least keep dust and pet hair off your headset.I rate this headset 9.5 of 10 considering reduced Amazon price, excellent sound, range, positive connectivity (no disconnects for me at all), battery life, dual simultaneous connectivity 2.4Ghz & Bluetooth, best microphone quality and best software-controlled sound and microphone control - this after trying and returning other major brands in this price range, and comfort/fit, finish.The only minor complaints are the cheap storage bag and the somewhat difficult combination bluetooth power and overall power on/off buttons being one rocker switch and hard to read labeling for that switch - visually the Bluetooth LED indicator is Blue and the overall power button for the 2 way dongle LED is green - so u know u made a mistake after the fact if wrong color LED is lit.BTW the room I use this headset is LOADED with wi-fi "smart" devices including 8 ceiling LED lights, 4 wall sconce LED lights, 2 wi-fi controlled window shades, Amazon Firecube w/Alexa, LG 77"C1 OLED TV. Xfinity 4K cable box, Xbox1X, all Alexa controlled via 2.4Ghz wireless & hardwired. The key to having all of this in one room is to hardwire as much as possible (main wireless router is in basement, hardwired remote 8 port switch behind A/V racks) - so all of the A/V equipment is hardwired - the lights and shades are 2.4Ghz wi-fi, nothing seems to interfere with the Steelcase 2.4GHz Quantum 2.0 Gaming Wireless connection dongle which is 15' from where I typically sit with headphones. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Probably the most fun you can have in wireless audio! *by on Reviewed in the United States January 7, 2026* Been a gamer for 20 years, listened to all kinds of different audio devices across multiple platforms and for the price, the versatility and comfort you can enjoy from multiple hours of gaming with these headphones is unmatched. The 50mm drivers will knock your eardrums off. You will hear the footsteps you wanted from every angle. And that’s just out of the box with no actual tuning. Wait til you get them updated and throw down a couple presets for Call of Duty, Battlefield or other FPS favorites. When you’re done playing Search, flip them over to BT mode on your phone and get the same acoustic bass quality if not better than your Bose QC2 quiet comfort headphones at half the price.At first I wasn’t sure about these, never owned a pair but after about 6 months of pretty heavy use I am very happy with my purchase. Battery lasts forever and they’re super quick to charge. Mic range is pretty dang excellent and if you have a radio DJ kinda voice, multiplayer lobbies are going to drool for you to talk more. So I’d say, hop on this if you’re looking for a great headset at an affordable price point with all the necessary features plus some. Controls on the earpieces are super intuitive and the most important thing, comfort. Again you can wear this thing and it doesn’t get too hot on the ears for hours and game comfortably. Super adjustable. Best headset purchase I’ve made in years. ## Frequently Bought Together - SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7X Wireless Multi-Platform Gaming Headset — Neodymium Magnetic Drivers — 2.4GHz+Bluetooth — 38Hr USB-C Battery — AI Mic — Xbox Series X|S, PC, PS5, Switch, VR, Mobile - Black - New bee Headphone Stand Headset Holder Earphone Stand with Aluminum Supporting Bar Flexible Headrest ABS Solid Base for All Headphones Size (Black) - Aenllosi Hard Storage Case for SteelSeries Arctis 1 3 5 7 7X 7+ 7P+ 9 9X PRO PRO+ Prime/Arctis Nova PRO 1 1P 1X 3 7 7X 7P Gaming Headset(Black) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/750959341-steelseries-arctis-nova-7x-wireless-multi-platform-gaming-headset-neodymium](https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/750959341-steelseries-arctis-nova-7x-wireless-multi-platform-gaming-headset-neodymium) --- *Product available on Desertcart Australia* *Store origin: AU* *Last updated: 2026-06-05*
