Today we will be checking out the Arctis 5 gaming headset by SteelSeries. In my opinion SteelSeries is one of the leaders in manufacturing gaming headsets. I don’t think I am alone in that thinking either. For some time now SteelSeries has been sending me their headsets to review and share with you guys and not once have I ever been displeased with any of them. My favorite headset of all-time is the SteelSeries V3 Prism.
I have reviewed other headsets from SteelSeries and other alike but I have never been able to say the sound was better than my Prism headset. Has SteelSeries released the Arctis line to finally change my mind! Keep reading and find out all the little details about the Arctis 5 and in the conclusion I will reveal if my Prism headset was crushed by the new kid on the block.
The Arctis Line
It’s the end of compromise. Every Arctis headset comes with our flagship audio drivers, a ClearCast mic and extraordinary comfort. The rest is up to you.
I would like to thank SteelSeries for providing this review sample! Let us see what they have to say about themselves on their website:
We are gaming
SteelSeries has fueled the gaming industry by creating innovative new products, designed specifically for eSports and passionate gamers everywhere.
Relentless Innovation
Here at SteelSeries, we are obsessed with “firsts”. Dating back to 2001, our company was formed to meet the surface needs of hardcore gamers by introducing the first glass mousepad, the Icemat. Since that original innovation, we created the first mechanical gaming keyboard, the first suspended headband for gaming headsets, the first World of Warcraft mouse and endless other innovations. SteelSeries is dedicated to building products that push professional gaming further than anyone dreamed. Those innovations make gaming more competitive and more fun for gamers everywhere.
Inspiring Design
Our fans, customers and professional eSports teams demand the ultimate performance from SteelSeries. We combine the necessity of professional-grade quality and durability with our unyielding pursuit of simple, modern design. Every surface, button, dial, key and wheel is designed with the gamer’s every move in mind. It’s our goal to deliver gaming peripherals that feel like an extension of you. Our designers hand-pick every material to make sure you have a beautiful product and our engineers test every feature, ensuring tournament-ready quality.
We are eSports
Since the new millennium, SteelSeries has been a driving force of eSports and professional gaming. From sponsoring the first pro players, to creating products specifically for pro teams, to turning exceptional gamers into global superstars, SteelSeries has been focused on growing the industry and helping gamers everywhere. Our pro team relationships are more than sponsorships, they are partnerships. We work closely with the world’s best gamers to fine-tune our products and to ensure everything we create meets the needs of gamers at every level. Whether it’s Evil Geniuses winning $6.6 million at The International 5 using all SteelSeries gear, or giving you the tools to step up your own game, eSports is at the heart of everything we do.
