Overview
STEELSERIES ARCTIS NOVA ELITE HI-RES WIRELESS GAMING HEADSET

SteelSeries Arctis Nova Elite

Carbon-Fibre Drivers
Maximum OmniPlay Mix
Up to 30 h Each; Settings Dependent
With Transparency Mode

Mix more than game audio
OmniPlay can mix up to four sources: USB 1, either USB 2 or USB 3, Bluetooth and line-in. Connect Xbox through USB 3 and use USB 1 for Sonar on PC. Three USB ports do not mean three simultaneous USB audio streams.
Swap batteries and keep playing
The Infinite Power System includes two removable batteries. Charge one in the GameHub while using the other, with a rated maximum of up to 30 hours per battery depending on settings. A 15-minute USB-C charge can provide up to four hours of play.
Focus on the session
Hybrid active noise cancellation helps reduce surrounding noise, while Transparency mode lets more of your surroundings through when needed. On-headset controls handle volume, source mix, mic mute and more.
Two ways to speak
The Elite combines a retractable ClearCast Gen 2.X boom mic with an on-ear beamforming microphone. Built-in AI noise rejection works across systems, and the 40mm carbon-fibre driver design provides the foundation for detailed listening.
Hi-Res Audio Needs the Correct Source
The listed high-resolution wireless mode reaches up to 96 kHz and 24-bit with a compatible source and settings. Check the source, connection and software configuration; that maximum is not a promise for every connected console or audio stream.
Configure Software for the Intended Host
Use the current supported application for the computer or mobile device. Sonar features and PC ChatMix have their own Windows requirements, while the GameHub’s source routing and console connections must be set up for the actual equipment.
Plan the Platform and Chat Connection
Choose the exact platform version and check whether its connection uses USB, a wireless receiver or an analogue headset socket. Set the playback and microphone devices deliberately in your game or chat application. Compare related options such as SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5 Wireless Gaming Headset – Black / White or SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1P Wired Gaming Headset - White Design, keeping the exact model and configuration in the decision.
