The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1P is a lightweight wired gaming headset for PlayStation 5 and other devices with a 3.5 mm jack, suited to players who want adjustable comfort, high-fidelity audio, and a noise-cancelling microphone.
Recommended For
- PS5 players who want a straightforward wired headset for controller-connected gaming and in-game voice chat, without needing a wireless setup.
- Players on a budget who prioritize a comfortable, lightweight-feeling headset for regular gaming sessions over extra features and wireless convenience.
- Gamers who regularly join team chat and want a retractable boom mic that reviewers found captures speech clearly in moderately noisy surroundings.
- People who switch between compatible consoles, PCs, and mobile devices and are comfortable using a wired 3.5 mm connection.
Real-World Use Scenarios
- On PS5, plug the headset into the controller for single-player gaming; game audio and chat come through one wired connection, with no headset battery to charge.
- For online multiplayer or party chat, extend the boom mic and use the headset’s onboard mute control to talk with teammates or mute yourself without navigating away from the game.
- During longer gaming sessions, the lightweight build and adjustable fit can make the headset comfortable to wear; fit and comfort will still vary by person.
- When moving between a PS5 controller and another device with a compatible 3.5 mm headset jack, the wired connection lets you reuse the headset without pairing or charging; cable length and device-jack compatibility affect convenience.
- In competitive games, use the headset to follow in-game sound cues such as movement and effects; how clearly you can judge their direction depends on the game, platform audio settings, and fit.
