The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5 Wireless has arrived in the Philippines just a few months after the introduction of their 2024 Lunar New Year headset. Unlike other headsets, the Arctis Nova 5 Wireless will come with its own companion app to give you access to more than 100 audio presets for the best possible listening experience.
The Arctis Nova 5 Wireless is powered by a 40mm neodymium driver with in an over-the-head design and closed-back earcups to keep you immersed in games. It can be connected via USB-C, 2.4GHz with its dongle, and Bluetooth 5.3 – which allows it to be connected with various platforms including PC, Mac, PS4/PS5, Switch, Oculus Quest 2, and smartphones.
You can communicate with your teammates with its ClearCast Gen 2.x fully retractable boom mic. It does come with ClearCast AI Noise Cancellation for two-way noise reduction to talk clearly with your party members.
SteelSeries says that the Arctis Nova 5 Wireless can last up to 50 hours via 2.4GHz and up to 60 hours through Bluetooth. It can be charged via its USB-C port for 15 minutes for up to 6 hours of usage. You can even quick switch devices or platforms through its different inputs with just a tap of a button.
The headset will come with the Nova 5 Companion app that lets you use more than 100 game-specific audio presets made by the brand’s audio engineers, esports professionals, and game developers. If you don’t like what you have, you can change presets on-the-fly in real-time.
