SteelSeries is selling its Arctis Nova Pro Wireless gaming headset for $239.99, down from the usual $379.99, with the discount applying to both Xbox and PlayStation versions. The price reduction is due to damaged outer packaging, though SteelSeries confirms the hardware inside is unused and undamaged, and the headsets carry the standard one-year warranty. The headset supports active noise cancellation, a noise-canceling microphone, swappable batteries, Bluetooth connectivity, and works across PC, Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch. It also includes a USB base station that allows battery charging, sound mixing, and blending up to three audio inputs simultaneously. Reviewers note the headset is heavier than other SteelSeries models but remains a strong high-end option, particularly at this reduced price.

The Ring 5 is seen as an incremental rather than essential step forward for existing Oura users.
