New budget headsets come and go, but you can't force the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3 Wireless off my head

Photos of the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3 Wireless gaming headset in Lavender, taken by writer Rosalie Newcombe, on a white desk.

Before I took off on my holidays last week and got a well-needed break from the screens, I was able to take a look at the BlackShark V3, Razer's latest budget pair of cups, and I like what I tested, but it was no SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3 Wireless.

This new model took what I had loved so much about one of the best gaming headsets, the BlackShark V2 Pro, including its lightweight and uber comfortable form factor, and injected it with new features from simultaneous wireless audio, THX spatial audio support, and new fantastic sounds thanks to its dynamic titanium 50mm audio drivers.

Regardless of its funky features, I'm always going to be a fan when big brands release lower-cost options alongside the flashier headsets like the BlackShark V3 Pro, as it means that even those of us with smaller budgets can still get access to new gaming tech.
