STEELSERIES PRO WIRELESS UPDATE
STEELSERIES PRO WIRELESS PC

Speaking of the connection options, the back of the transmitter helps show what you can do. It does let you flip between all of the different connection options though. There is also an OLED display on the front although this one is smaller than the GameDAC and it doesn’t have as many features. The front has a wheel that you can flip through settings on and press in to confirm and then a back button just like the GameDAC. Now the wheel has changed to match the one on the GameDAC and the base is different but overall this is the same look. I recognize it because I used the H-Wireless for a long time. It was originally designed for the H-Wireless and transitioned to the Siberia 800 when they rebranded to that. This is extremely different than the GameDAC included with the other combo but oddly enough this unit isn’t really new at all. Well, SteelSeries calls it a transmitter but to me, this is the hub and charging base where you charge the included swappable batteries. So one of the big differences between the Arctis Pro and the Arctis Pro Wireless (beyond the whole wireless thing) is the base that is included. One comes installed and the other on its own to be put in the charger. Also, included is another microphone windscreen and the batteries. Then like the Arctis Pro you get an optical cable for those more direct connections. There is a power cable for the transmitter base, this is USB to a round charging plug. That cable is USB to a USB B Mini connection, the same weird one that the Arctis Pro uses as well.

The base charges the batteries but this is nice to have to plug the headset directly in when traveling or when you need to update the firmware. The mobile charging cable is something you won’t need most of the time. There is a mobile audio cable that plugs directly into the headset.

You have a USB cable for the transmitter that goes to your PC or PS4. The information guide and warranty card are just about the same with the exception of the name on the cover and all of the wireless setup information.Īs for the rest of the accessories, things are a lot different for this one.

Then under all of that, you will find a box with all of the accessories.

The Arctis Pro Wireless comes nicely in tight in between the two formed plastic shells with the receiver/base up under the headband. Then they run through the features again in all three languages. The picture on the back shows the headset and receiver again only this time it also includes the two batteries in the picture. Only this time there is a different controller, not the GameDAC. While this box was a little bigger it does have the same white background and a large photo of the headset on the front. One thing that is a lot alike was the packaging. So in a lot of ways, the Arctic Pro Wireless is like the Arctis Pro that we just went over so I am going to try to be a little shorter here to focus on what is different about it.
