Switching off the volume limiter allowed me to experience the headset's rather impressive maximum volume. The mic volume and sidetone settings can also be adjusted. There's a 10-band equaliser, which you can set to your personal preference or select from one of the defaults. For the Artis Nova 7 Wireless, this allows you to customise some of the headset's functionality. The application allows you to customise all your SteelSeries devices in one place.

Inserting the USB dongle into your machine immediately brings up a prompt to install the SteelSeries GG software application. The right earcup has the on/off button, the Bluetooth pairing button, and a dial for adjusting the mix of game chat and game soundtrack. The 35mm audio jack is also on the left side. The left earcup also has the volume dial and mute button. When stowed, the left earcup hides a retractable flexible mic that is completely out of sight. The earcups themselves have a little give to ensure a good fit, no matter what your head size they also twist 90 degrees to allow you to lay the headset flat on a table or around your neck. The earcup cushions are made of cloth-covered foam that doesn't seem to be removable but is very soft and comfy. Even though my preference is to have a soft foam between my head and the headset, it's still very comfortable. The headset has a fairly robust plastic construction with an adjustable strap across the headpiece. It can also be used with Xbox One/Series X|S via an Xbox controller.

The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 Wireless is an all-in-one wireless headset solution for PC, PlayStation, Switch, and mobile devices.
