Pros:
- Great audio quality
- Has 3 different connection methods and you can use all of then simultaneously: Bluetooth, 3.5mm jack (no mic available) and Xbox connection (console or Xbox dongle). This is the main reason I bought this one over other premium headphones, I use 3 devices (PC via Xbox dongle, android via 3.5mm jack and iPhone via Bluetooth). I control the volume in each of the device's audio system separately and the volume wheel in the headphone is a separated master volume, so it works perfectly.
- The mic in the Xbox mode is one of the best I experienced for wireless mics. Of course it is not as good as an wired high quality mic, but it's really good (I don't have an Xbox, but I use an Xbox dongle on PC).
- Long battery life. I use it all day long and charge it at night. The battery does last more than a day, but it dies in the middle/end of the second day of use.
- Comfortable, but nothing extraordinary like some reviews I saw before buying said. The headband is adjustable and I had some difficult to find the right setting (the headphone would start falling from my head if I tilted it down a little at first), but no problems after I found it.
- The headphone works while charging.
Cons:
- The mic in Bluetooth mode is really bad, use the Xbox mode Bluetooth if you care about this.
- While the Bluetooth mic is in use, the audio you listen to will also be bad, like phone call quality (the quality changes from Stereo to Hands-Free mode). This is a limitation of the current Bluetooth technology, all Bluetooth headphone have this problem. This problem also doesn't happen in Xbox mode, only Bluetooth.
- The secondary volume wheel didn't work. It was supposed to control volume ratio game/voice call. Maybe it only works for Xbox (I don't have one), it didn't work when I tried on phone calls and Discord. I don't really care for this, so I didn't ask for warranty.
- You don't have access to the mic in the 3.5mm jack connection mode.
- Noise suppression is not that good.

SteelSeries Arctis 9X Gaming Headset Review
Lhasa Peak
Reviews with images
One major design flaw, but mostly a high-quality headset.
I owned this headset for 20 months, until it literally fell apart on me. The major design flaw is how they connect the earpiece to the headband. It's a very narrow connection and the head band and the earpieces have some heft to them. Just the other day, I went to adjust my mixer and volume settings and I felt a crack near the dial on the left earpiece. By the time the play session ended it suffered catastrophic failure and the earpiece was left dangling by a wire and was no longer wearable. I have some other minor issues as well. It seemed that the mixer and volume dials would constantly change between the end of one session and the beginning of another session. I have no idea how that happened, but I always hung it up after a session. It was a bit of a nuisance to have to keep adjusting it every time I started a session. The other issue I had was with band not fitting snuggly, which would cause it to slide a lot on my head. If I leaned forward or backward there was a chance of the entire headset falling off my head. I had originally ordered this for use with my XBox One X and had no issues with setting it up, but when I went to transfer it to my XBox Series X I had a bit of difficulty linking the two devices. I also rarely ran into issues with the headset turning itself off shortly after turning it on and needed to be turned on again.Some of the good was it was very comfortable. I felt it breathed nice and was much cooler than other headsets I had purchased. The cushion on the earpieces was made of a very nice material and doesn't erode and fall apart like other headsets that may use that pleather-like coating, making it all nasty. I also liked the retractable mouthpiece and how it lit up on the tip when you had it on mute.I fully expected this headset to last way longer than 20 months and thought it would last at least 5 years. I really wish I got the service plan, but that's just my luck, I guess. If it wasn't for it falling apart all of a sudden within a couple years of purchase, I would have given this my strongest recommendation. Alas, that didn't happen; and I'd only recommend buying this if you plan to get the service plan as well.
