SteelSeries budget-friendly Arctis 3 wired gaming headset now $51 (Reg. up to $70)

Reg. $58+/$51

Amazon is offering the SteelSeries Arctis 3 Wired Gaming Headset for $50.99 shipped. Also at Best Buy. Down from its normal going rate of $58 to $70 at Amazon, today’s deal marks the best price that we’ve seen since the holidays. Made to work with essentially any console, desktop, or even mobile gaming setup, this headset delivers a solid audio experience everywhere you are. This all happens thanks to the 3.5mm headphone jack. The microphone itself is Discord-certified and delivers “studio-quality voice clarity and background noise cancellation.” On top of that, the AirWeave ear cushions keep your ears “cool and dry” even when gaming all day long. If you use Windows 10 or an Xbox console, then you’ll find native surround sound and spatial audio natively supported, as well. Head below for additional details.

If you don’t mind waiting a few extra days for delivery and getting a headset that’s not quite as sleek, then opting for the Razer Kraken Gaming Headset is a great way to save a few bucks. It’s available on Amazon right now for $40 and still offers a solid experience for the price. It also uses a 3.5mm headphone jack for connection, though there’s no Windows Sonic or spatial audio support and the microphone isn’t quite Discord-certified, though Razer is known for making quality products.
