This early Black Friday deal is particularly special, given that the headset only launched in October of this year. It's the lowest price ever for the product, and I've been busy testing the PlayStation variant for review over the past few weeks. Spoilers, it's excellent.

While the UK has the best deals on the newest version, the Gen 1 headset is on sale in the US, and it's still a gaming headset worth investing in at such a low price. The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 Gen 1 is discounted at just $109.73 (was $199.99), the lowest price in the US since April.

Having tested the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 Gen 2 over the last month, I can say that it is the perfect multi-platform headset, able to connect seamlessly to PC, Xbox, PlayStation and Switch devices. Via a 2.4hz dongle, you can switch between Bluetooth and Wireless settings, or run them simultaneously. This is particularly useful for chatting with friends while gaming, or for listening to music.

While the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 Gen 1 is the only one available for discount in the US, it's still a great option, with only slightly less battery life, and some additional features missing. At that price though, this is easily one of the best picks we can recommend in the price range, so it's well worth considering.

The expansive SteelSeries Arctis software offers in-depth EQ customization and a bunch of custom audio profiles for you to try out in games like Marvel Rivals and Fortnite. This can really change how you play by upping the levels of enemy footsteps, and enhancing directional audio, allowing you to sense players before they attack.
