There is a pretty good deal atm on this headset and been thinking about getting my first wireless headset for a while. Am curious about how it runs on Linux, as I’ve seen some controversy on this headset on website that shall not be named, but that was 3 years ago now. I dont expect to be running their propriety software for equalizing sound - but would like to know if the headset performs as it should out of the box and if the additional sound system works well. If anyone has any experience with this i’d be more than happy to hear about it. Other headset recommendations welcome to (wireless though) :)

    I dont, but I have its predecessor on a windows machine. As much as I love the product, I wouldn’t buy from SteelSeries again.
    Their firmware has so many annoying edge cases, and there are improvements to be made on the physical product too.
    Instead of polishing all of the known issues that were raised in the community and releasing a new version, they made a completely new product line, with gimmick features no one asked for. From what I heard the issues are still there. Really annoying

      Have been reading a lot of reviews and watching endless videos of this headset, and none of them have had any complaints of the physical side of things at least, but not sure about the firmware.
