SteelSeries presents a new series of gaming headsets. Arctis 5 falls into the middle segment with the same performance, quality and comfort as the other headphones. Added from the entry-level model are USB connectivity and RGB lighting. Whether you play on PC, game console or mobile devices, the Steelseries Arctis 5 fits so you can enjoy high-definition sound everywhere.

Comfort

When Steelseries developed its new series of gaming headphones, they went back to basics and built the headphones based on what users want and need. The goal with Arctis was to create a headset so light and comfortable that you forget you're wearing it. Steelseries stripped away all unnecessary components, and what remained was a minimalist design that is more comfortable to wear for hours, and still gives you the audio experience you want.

Materials were chosen with inspiration from sportswear, including an elastic fabric used for ski goggles for the headband. The band distributes the weight across the head without any pressure or chafing points, and is easy to adjust to fit your head shape.

Beautiful LED lighting

The most visible difference between Arctis 3 and Arctis 5 is the colorful LED lighting that gives the headphones an impressive look. Adjust colors and lights yourself exactly how you want them to set your personal stamp.

Soft and noise-insulating ear cushions

The inspiration from sportswear can also be found in the ear cushions. Steelseries invented the incredibly soft and comfortable AirWeave ear cushions with memory foam that molds to your ears and head shape. The cushions are covered with a soft fabric that breathes without getting too hot or sweaty. Coated with a special thermoplastic that provides noise reduction, ambient noise is also filtered out of your game sound so you can stay focused on the right things.

S1 headphone element with surround sound

Although the price tag is significantly different, the Arctis 5 has the same high-quality headphone elements as in Steelseries' flagship headphones. This means that you get the most realistic and natural sound possible, regardless of whether you are playing intense games, watching movies or listening to music.

Hear exactly where your enemy is sneaking from, thanks to surround sound. SteelSeries has partnered with DTS Headphone:X and used a brand new algorithm designed specifically for the Arctis series. Get the feeling of being there with immersive surround sound* and gain the upper hand in the game.

ClearCast microphone

A good gaming headset is not only about giving you good sound, but they should also sound good to your fellow players. All Arctis models have a newly designed bidirectional ClearCast microphone that provides incredibly clear voice communication and sets a new standard for microphones in gaming headsets. The focus is on your voice while noise and ambient sounds are filtered out. The microphone has also been equipped with LED lighting that signals when the microphone is switched off.

Customize with SteelSeries Engine 3

The headset is ready to go straight away, but to get the most out of your new headphones, SteelSeries Engine 3* software is included. In this PC program you get access to all functions and settings such as different sound profiles, light settings, equalizer and microphone settings, packaged in a user-friendly interface.

To all your devices

SteelSeries Arctis 5 is compatible with all your gaming devices. In addition to the detachable main cable, an extension cable with USB connector is included for use with a computer. If you want to use the headphones together with your mobile phone or the game console controller (Playstation, Xbox), you use the adapter for the 3.5 mm connector. It makes it easy to use and switch Arctis 5 between all your devices.

Materials were chosen with inspiration from sportswear, including an elastic fabric used for ski goggles for the headband. The band distributes the weight across the head without any pressure or chafing points, and is easy to adjust to fit your head shape.

*Note that some functions, such as ChatMix, surround sound and lighting, only work when the headset is connected via USB. As well as Works only surround sound with DTS Headphone:X v2.0 with PC.

Jesper. 2022-02-02

+ Comfortable & Clear sound + Stylish design & Lighting + Simple & good software - Poor bass - The microphone is cash Worked well for about 6 months ago it started to bother, among other things that the device is not connected according to steelseries own software. in addition to that, there are noises in the headphones sometimes as well.

+ Bekväm & Klart ljud + Snygg design & Belysning + Enkel & bra programvara - Dålig bas - Mikrofonen är kass Funkade bra i ungefär 6 månader sen började det krångla, blandannat att enheten inte är inkopplad enligt steelseries egna programvara. utöver det brusar det i hörlurarna ibland också.
