For a limited time, Best Buy is slashing prices on the SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless gaming headset for PC, PS4, and PlayStation 5, offering it at just $139.99—a staggering 50% off its original $280 price tag. This deal beats SteelSeries' own Easter Sale price by $50, making it a steal compared to their $189.99 offer. The Arctis Pro, SteelSeries' flagship model before the Arctis Nova Pro, stands out as one of the only two headsets in their lineup with swappable batteries.

50% Off SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless Gaming Headset

SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless Headset

Originally priced at $279.99, you can now grab the Arctis Pro for $139.99 at Best Buy. Before the Arctis Nova Pro took the spotlight, the Arctis Pro was SteelSeries' top-tier gaming headset. It's packed with unique features, including a standalone base station equipped with a volume knob and an OLED display, the ability to connect via Bluetooth and 2.4GHz WiFi simultaneously, and the standout feature: a hot-swappable battery system. This system ensures uninterrupted wireless play by providing two batteries—one in use and one charging in the base station.

The Arctis Pro doesn't skimp on build quality. Its headband is crafted from a lightweight steel and aluminum alloy, and the suspension headstrap is designed for comfort during long gaming sessions. The ear cushions are made from AirWeave performance fabric, akin to those on the newer Arctis Nova Pro. The retractable ClearCast boom microphone adds to its versatility. With premium 40mm speaker drivers featuring high-density neodymium magnets, the headset delivers hi-res audio up to 40,000Hz.

SteelSeries Arctis Pro Review by Matt Elliot

"The SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless offers premium build quality, a comfortable design, and exceptional sound. Its innovative battery-swapping system ensures you're never caught without power. While its audio is impressive, I'd give a slight performance advantage to the wired Arctis Pro + GameDAC, which is $70 cheaper and still very comfortable. Alternatively, for a more budget-friendly option, the wireless Arctis 7 is available for less than half the price."

The Arctis Pro was succeeded by the Arctis Nova Pro in 2022. Currently, you can find the Nova Pro for $270 on Amazon. Though it boasts upgrades like active noise cancellation and USB Type-C charging, it's not worth nearly double the price of the Arctis Pro.
