Quality gaming headsets are hardly ever reduced in price, but this Amazon Prime Day SteelSeries has reduced its Arctis Nova 5X Wireless gaming headset by 20 percent, now only $120, down from $150. It’s a big deal because the Nova 5X is a fully fledged set of cans with great sounding neodymium magnetic drivers. The headset supports both a 2.4GHz wireless connection and Bluetooth signal and is compatible with Xbox, PC, PS, Switch and mobile devices. It allows quick switch toggling between modes. With just a tap of a button you can go from gaming to taking a call or listening to media. You never have to miss a call thanks to the helpful notification beeps that keep you aware of incoming calls while you’re gaming. All the controls are on the ears. You’ve got power, mute, volume adjustment, and there’s a chat mixer too so that you can mix your chat with music. The Nova 5X’s battery life is one of the best we’ve seen – you get up to 60 hours, which means you can charge at the start of the week and forget about having to do it again until the end of the week. Comfort is a big consideration and the Nova 5X has one of the most comfortable designs, with a soft mesh-like material that sits plush against your ears and fully adjustable headband. That said, the headset is made-to-last with hard metal earcup covers that will last the test of time. SteelSeries products are very sought after, so this Amazon Prime Day deal is sure to evaporate when the sale ends. So, be sure to get in quick to snap up the bargain.
