I was immediately struck by the sleek design of the headphones. The packaging was clean and minimalist.
Inside the box, I find the headphones snuggled in a custom-molded plastic tray. They looked and felt solidly built, with a premium feel that promises excellent sound quality.
Underneath the plastic tray were a few accessories. There's a detachable audio cable and a splitter cable. The cables are both high-quality, with a sturdy feel that build for long lasting. The carrying pouch that came together with the headset is a nice touch, offering a convenient way to store and transport the headphones when not in use.
Overall, the unboxing experience of this headphone has been excellent and the headphone feels solid and high-quality.
One of the standout features of the Arctis 3 headphones is the ClearCast microphone, which is known for its exceptional clarity and noise cancellation. Whether you're chatting with friends during a game or recording a podcast, this microphone ensures that your voice is heard loud and clear.
It also features S1 speaker drivers, which deliver balanced and accurate sound across the entire frequency spectrum. This means that you'll be able to hear a wide range of details of your favorite songs, movies, and games, without any distortion or muddiness.
In addition to their clarity, the Arctis 3 headphones also have a warm and natural sound that is pleasing to the ear. The bass is punchy and impactful without being overpowering, and the midrange and treble are well-balanced and clear. This makes them a great choice for listening to a wide range of music genres, from pop and rock to classical and jazz. On occasions, I have brought it to some church services where I do sound mixing and they have never failed me.
The headband is adjustable. The ear cushions are made of a very soft and breathable material, and they are large enough to fit comfortably over your ears without putting any pressure on them. In comparison, it's like putting marshmallows on your head. Not only that, the cushion and band are also easy to swap with replacements if you ever need to.
The only downside of the Arctis 3 headphones is that they don't offer any active noise cancellation, so they may not be the best choice if you're looking for headphones to use in noisy environments. However, they do provide good passive noise isolation, which can help to block out some external sounds.
Overall, the SteelSeries Arctis 3 headphones are a great choice for anyone looking for a comfortable and high-quality pair of headphones. They're especially well-suited for gamers and content creators who need a reliable microphone and excellent sound quality. It's durability is also spot on! I've been using it normally for nearly a year and still haven't land a scratch on it and I am a pretty clumsy person.
I bought it at the price of 284.00MYR which converted to USD is just 64.24 Dollars for this.
It's an amazing headphone for its price range at! I recommend it very much!
