This means the dongle has to be tethered via a bundled USB-C to USB-A cable, resulting in a setup that falls short in terms of overall refinement. It's an extra step compared to communicating directly via the Xbox Wireless protocol, and confounding matters, it won't have escaped your attention that no Xbox games console - current or last gen - has an available USB-C port. SteelSeries' focus on versatility ought to be applauded, yet if you happen to game strictly on Xbox, you might lament the fact that you have to use a dongle at all.
7P, on the other hand, will support all of the aforementioned except Xbox. Technically, that makes the 7X the more versatile headset as it will function with a wider variety of devices, including Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, PC and Android. There are important hardware variances, too, as while both ship with a USB-C dongle, the 7X's is a fraction bigger to accommodate both Xbox Wireless and USB connectivity, with a small toggle switch allowing users to alternate between the two. What's the difference between the PlayStation and Xbox models, might you ask? Well, colour is the obvious point of differentiation, as the 7X is black with green highlights, whereas 7P is blue on white. The introduction of PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S/X has been met with the introduction of the Arctis 7P and 7X, respectively, both priced at £160, and we've spent the past few days getting acquainted with the 7X.
The long-standing range is renowned for offering decent sound quality in a familiar form factor that gamers know and appreciate, and new models touting support for the latest consoles are never far away. Anyone in the market for a high-quality gaming headset ought to have a SteelSeries Arctis on their radar.
