You might not have caught the release of the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 4. It's been a far smaller show than the brand has put on for its higher-grade models, but now that the $119.99 headset is out in the wild (in the US at least), it's set to take over from previous budget wireless picks. We love the Nova line, from its high quality audio to its comfortable form factor, but to squeeze all that performance down into the price tag of the Arctis 1 Wireless is no mean feat.
I have big hopes for this device - after all, it sits within the same range as the best gaming headset on the market right now. With both the Nova 4 and Nova 4 X (the best model for console compatibility) in hand, I spent two weeks testing the new middle child to see exactly what $120 can get you from SteelSeries.
