Our Verdict

SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 Wireless [7, 7P, 7X]

Logitech G PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED Wireless

The Logitech G PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED Wireless are better gaming headphones than the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 Wireless and their variants. The Logitech are more comfortable and boast a mammoth battery life of 97 hours, almost triple that of the SteelSeries. However, the SteelSeries have a better mic recording quality and support multi-device pairing, meaning you can pair them with a phone or laptop via Bluetooth while using the dongle to stay connected to your PC or console.
