On the left side you will find the volume dial, mute button and the fully retractable microphone, as well as the 3.5 mm jack. The controls are also based on those of the Nova Pro Wireless, with certain differences. The size-adjustable ski goggle headband is taken from other headsets in the company’s portfolio. The Nova 7 Wireless also uses soft fabric ear cushions instead of artificial leather.

You can remove these magnetic plates with just one finger, but there is nothing underneath. The Arctis Nova 7 also does without the removable battery underneath the removable plates of the Pro model. Unlike the Pro model, however, this elevation is not made of metal, but only of plastic. This means that the 7 model also relies on rounded ear cups including a stepped area that is emblazoned with the manufacturer’s logo in gray. In terms of design, the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 Wireless is also very different from the cheaper Nova 1 and Nova 3 models, and is much closer to the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless, which we tested in August 2022. In addition to the obligatory manual, the manufacturer exchanges the sticker sheet of the two sibling models from the Arctis Nova series for a template for the cardboard folding figure Lars. Among them is a USB-C to USB-A cable with a length of 1.5 meters, a 3.5 mm jack cable (1.2 meters) and a USB extension cable (1.5 meters long). In addition, there are a whole three cables.

In addition to the headset itself, there is a USB-C receiver in the box, which is required for the wireless connection. Since the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 Wireless is a wireless gaming headset, even the scope of delivery differs from the two cheaper sibling models.
