I use these headphones every day and have been using them for over 3 years, only having to buy a single replacement pair whereas most headphones only last me like 4-5 months if I'm lucky, even ones at twice the price. The adjustable dial on the headphones themselves is perfect for quick adjustments, and the sound quality is very nice. I haven't noticed much sound leakage (sound escaping the headphones when turned up loud so other people can hear your stuff) compared to other headphones at the same price.
If you're like me and you take even bare minimum care of your headphones, this pair will last you forever. I plan on just buying this set of headphones on repeat forever whenever I need a new pair- at least until they stop selling them, because I have NEVER found a pair that's as nice as these, especially on a budget. I would rate these headphones 100 stars If I could.
Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2024
It's a nice headset...the ear pads are comfortable (I usually play for 3-4 hour sessions), the sound quality is good, and my mic sounds crystal clear when I record a message and play it back. The noise cancelling feature of the mic works well enough so that my squadmates don't hear my button mashing (like they do when I'm using my Turtle Beach Recon 70X).
Compared to the $34 TB Recon 70X I mentioned above, this headset (I bought it for $50) is a significant improvement in quality for just a small increase in price, so it's well worth it.
This headset plays nicely with both my newer (model 1708) and my older (model 1697) Xbox One controllers.
Pros:
-The headphones are pretty good sounding
-My cheapo headset made my ears sweat a lot, while these do not.
-The cord has a very good length for plugging into the front of your desktop. My old headset's cord frequently got caught in my chair, while this cord usually does not.
-The pad that rests against the top of your head is mesmerizingly soft.
-These are very comfortable headphones, but...
Cons:
-The headphones are too tight on my large head and squeezes my ears and put pressure on my TMJ.
-The cord feels really thin and fragile. I always feel I might get it caught up in my chair and break it and it's not easily replaceable.
-The volume wheel on the back of the ear has almost no resistance, but only spins like a half turn making it awkward to use to adjust the volume.
-The mute switch for the mic *sometimes* doesn't work. When I first got the headset, I noticed the switch does not hardware mute my mic in Discord, but recently it does appear to be working. I've seen mute buttons break on other mics before, so I don't trust this one.
Biggest con:
The mic on this sounds significantly worse than my $20 headset's. I often get really into my games, and yell a lot, and this mic cuts out when I even slightly raise my voice. I also have a fan running often, and it completely destroys this mic. The cheapo headset I had would completely filter out the fan noises and any other low sounds, while this mic appears to do the opposite!
I've actually resorted to cutting up a dust mask and attaching it around the mic with elastic. This actually fixes most of the shortfalls of this Mic and has made the headset a much better experience.

En cuanto a la comodidad, estos auriculares son muy ligeros y cómodos de llevar durante largas sesiones de juego³. La banda supraural única y fina y los drivers compactos hacen que estos auriculares sean muy cómodos y no pesen demasiado³.
En general, los SteelSeries Arctis 1 para Xbox son una buena opción si buscas unos auriculares gaming con una buena calidad de sonido y comodidad⁴.
Pros:
-Sonido claro
-Compatibilidad excelente con Windows Sonic
-Volumen alto (PC)
-Micrófono de gran calidad
-Comodidad extrema
-Súper ligeros
-Resistentes (diadema de aluminio)
-Discretos para el uso diario, puesto que el micrófono es extraíble
-Las almohadillas son de tela súper cómoda y giran 90° para una comodidad al tenerlos puestos o quitártelos
-Las almohadillas SÍ SON reemplazables (no incluye repuestos; en todos los modelos Arctis lo son)
-Si bien los graves no son el fuerte de estos audífonos, los que los 32ohms te dan son tan claros como los medios y agudos. Ninguna distorsión absoluta del sonido
Contras:
-El divisor de audio puede generar cierto tipo de doble audio en el micro al usarla con combo-jacks (micrófono y audio por una sola entrada 3.5mm), pero se pueden usar normal sin el divisor y sin ninguna interrupción
-El micro a pesar de ser buenísimo, logra captar algunos sonidos exteriores como el teclado o los clicks del mouse.
-El cable de los audífonos NO ES extraíble ni TAMPOCO trenzado, así como también la longitud del mismo (1.5m + 1.5 de la extensión en Y), así que hay que tener cuidado de no forzarlo mucho o jalarlo de golpe. Al no pesar parecería que no traes puesto nada y te los pasas llevando.
-Al ser acabado mate, se manchan con facilidad y se logran ver las huellas así tengas las manos limpias.
-NO aíslan por completo el sonido exterior, pero sí hay un buen aislamiento
En conclusión, son unos excelentes audífonos por una calidad excepcional que nunca había yo visto en unos auriculares del tipo "gamer". El precio por el cual los adquirí fue de $1139 para tener una referencia de cuánto pueden llegar a bajar. Si estás indeciso acerca de esta opción, no lo dudes. Los uso diario desde hace 20 días y no tengo quejas como con otros de otras marcas.
