While the charging port may be microUSB, the 2.4GHz wireless dongle is USB-C, so it can plug into many newer phones, the Nintendo Switch, and computers. A bummer if you needed this feature, but a reasonable trade-off to inch down the price. This headset omits the extra 3.5mm port for sharing audio with a second headset, a feature found on other headsets like the Arctis 3 Bluetooth.

The right ear cup simply has the the headset power button, which still requires me to hold it too long to turn off and on - a nuisance across the several Arctis headsets I’ve used. The left ear cup has a mic plug, a microUSB charging port, a 3.5mm jack (SteelSeries thankfully dumped the proprietary connector for this), a volume wheel, and a microphone mute switch (differing again from the button found on other Arctis headsets). But, faux leather has a tendency to get oily and degrade, which is a negative trade-off compared to the ski bands of other Arctis headsets. It has a padded, faux leather top that’s comfortable.

I twisted and stretched it beyond reasonable limits for typical users, and it didn’t creak or pop at all. The headband does still use metal inside, and it’s plenty flexible. The mic is still a ClearCast version, but there are some differences I’ll mention when we get into specs. The slimmer ear cups may explain why SteelSeries has switched from a retractable microphone to a detachable one. I think SteelSeries took it to heart when myself and others complained about the discomfort of having the plastic speaker driver covers press on the rim of my ear, as there’s now enough depth toward the rear of the headphones to reduce this contact.
