Review on Computer headset SteelSeries Arctis 1X, black by Jnis Labucis ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The purchase did not bring joy, the product is bad.

Headphones were bought specifically for comfortable work in the office, where it is noisy. I paid attention to the price, the material of the ear pads and, most importantly, the noise-canceling microphone. It turned out that the latter does not work at all. By default, this is the most common microphone that picks up everything and everyone around. There are no promised technologies, as the manufacturer writes that nothing can be heard beyond 8 inches - this is not. You can download steelseries gg, tweak a bunch of sliders and more or less adjust noise reduction. But this will have to be done for almost every single program through which calls go (slack, discord, skype, skype for business, zoom, etc.). And also when you turn on this software, the sound starts to crack, a computer with 16GB of RAM does not take it out. And I have something to compare - logitech g733 works perfectly on all fronts. Yes, they are more expensive, but they are wireless, and the wireless analogue of these headphones is even more expensive. I do not recommend buying.

Pros
  • Comfortably sit
Cons
  • The noise canceling microphone doesn't actually work.
