One of my favorite design decisions of the Nova Pro is the retracting boom microphone. The mute button is easy to find as is the volume dial, but you probably won’t be using that very much – more on that later.

There you’ll find a mute button, volume dial, retractable boom microphone, and the 3.5mm headphone input port. These are some of the most comfortable headphones I’ve ever tested.Īll of the connections and on-headset controls are located on the left earcup. The result of these design decisions is a headset that feels robust in the hand but doesn’t weigh very much and in hours of gaming I never felt any kind of fatigue. They are removable and changeable if they are not to your tastes, however. The earcups that ship with the Nova Pros are a leatherette material around a soft, plush padding that fits my ears really, really well. The two earpieces are also plastic except for the interchangeable metal speaker plates that allow you to customize the look of the cans. The top of the headset features a lightweight metal plate above a plastic bottom that sits above the flexible fabric band that actually rests on the crown of your head. SteelSeries balanced the materials of the Arctis Nova Pro extremely well.
