SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3X Xbox Multi-Platform Wireless Gaming Headset
Take complete command of your competitive game audio across Xbox and every other major platform with the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3X Wireless Gaming Headset. Powered by custom-designed 40mm Neodymium Magnetic Drivers and integrated with the mobile Arctis Companion App, the Nova 3X gives you instant access to specialized audio presets for titles like Call of Duty, Fortnite, and Apex Legends so you can isolate enemy footsteps and movement cues with total clarity. Featuring Quick-Switch Dual Wireless technology, an impressive 40-hour battery life, supercharged fast charging, and a high-bandwidth 32kHz/16-bit detachable ClearCast Gen 2.X microphone, the Nova 3X delivers complete spatial immersion and ultra-lightweight 260g comfort for gamers across South Africa.
Quick-Switch Dual Wireless & Cross-Platform Connectivity
Effortlessly balance gaming audio with mobile calls and media. The Quick-Switch Wireless system allows you to tap the power button to instantly swap between ultra-low latency 2.4GHz gaming and Bluetooth 5.3. Separate EQ profiles save automatically—amplifying footsteps on your 2.4GHz game channel while activating your personal music profile on Bluetooth. Equipped with a nano-sized L-shaped USB-C wireless dongle (and included USB-C to USB-A adapter), the Nova 3X features universal compatibility across Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, PC, Nintendo Switch, Mac, Meta Quest VR, handhelds, and mobile devices.
Mobile Arctis Companion App & Spatial Sound Performance
Unlock pro-grade equalizer controls right from your phone. With the Arctis Companion App (iOS & Android), you can switch game sound profiles on the fly without ever pausing or exiting your Xbox game. Built for full compatibility with Microsoft Spatial Sound for Xbox, PS5 Tempest 3D Audio, and SteelSeries Sonar 360° Spatial Audio for Windows, the Nova 3X ensures total directional awareness in any gaming world.
40-Hour Battery Life & 15-Minute Fast Charge
Stay locked in long gaming marathons without worrying about running out of power. The Arctis Nova 3X provides up to 40 hours of battery life over Bluetooth (up to 30 hours on 2.4GHz wireless). When running low, optimized USB-C Fast Charging gives you an incredible 9 hours of play from a quick 15-minute charge.
Durable Dual-Hinge Frame & High-Bandwidth Detachable Mic
Weighing just 260 grams, the Nova 3X eliminates headset pressure while delivering long-lasting durability via a rugged dual-hinge headband design. The high-bandwidth 32kHz/16-bit ClearCast Gen 2.X boom mic uses bidirectional noise-canceling technology to filter out ambient room sound, and detaches completely for clean mobile audio use on the go.
