SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3X Wireless Xbox Gaming Headset - White / 40mm Neodymium Drivers / 360° Spatial Audio / 38-Hour Battery Life / USB-C Dongle for Multi-Platform Use / Noise-Cancelling Mic / Xbox, PS5, PS4, PC, Switch, Mobile, Chromebook / 61690 / 61690 + FREE DELIVERY !

The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3X in white drives 40mm neodymium drivers across Xbox, PlayStation, PC, Nintendo Switch, Chromebook and mobile devices, so one headset covers the desk and the console shelf. 360° spatial audio places teammates and opponents by direction, the built-in noise-cancelling microphone filters room noise out of team chat, and the USB-C dongle switches platforms instantly.

The SteelSeries mobile app builds customised sound profiles for every game and applies them in seconds, with the control living on your phone rather than in desktop software. That is what lets the tuning follow the headset onto a console or a handheld, where no PC utility exists to load a profile from.

Game-optimised presets ship for popular titles including Call of Duty and Fortnite, amplifying footsteps and other positional detail that normally disappears under gunfire and music. Loading the right preset is a tap in the app, so the advantage comes from a better balance in the mix rather than from raising the volume.

Each connection keeps its own preset, so 2.4GHz wireless can run enhanced footsteps for competitive play while Bluetooth holds a custom preset shaped for music and video on a phone. Switching connection brings the matching sound with it, so neither profile has to be rebuilt when you move between the two.

Charging for 15 minutes returns up to 9 hours of wireless play, enough to cover an evening from a battery that has already gone flat. That turnaround changes what an empty headset costs: it becomes a short break rather than the end of the session, because it is ready again by the time a game has loaded.

Advanced 40mm neodymium drivers sit in each earcup, delivering clear, powerful sound that carries games, music and movies with the same detail. Driver size and magnet material are what give high-resolution reproduction its headroom, so effects, dialogue and positional cues stay separated when a scene gets crowded.

The compact USB-C adapter carries the wireless link and takes only its own socket, leaving the ports around it usable. On an Xbox, a PS5 or a handheld with sockets set close together, that clearance decides whether a spare port survives the dongle or gets covered by its housing.

The USB-C dongle connects instantly for high-speed audio on Xbox, PlayStation, PC, Nintendo Switch, handhelds and more, with no installation step in between. Instant multi-platform switching is what makes the Nova 3X worth moving between devices, rather than leaving it attached to whichever machine it was first paired with.

A single tap moves the headset between 2.4GHz wireless and Bluetooth 5.3, and it remembers the custom preset assigned to each connection. Taking a call on a phone mid-session becomes one button rather than a menu, with the game connection kept ready instead of being dropped and paired again afterwards.

The detachable high-bandwidth microphone filters background noise so your voice stays crisp and clear for team chats, streaming and calls. Because the boom comes off entirely, the same headset works as an ordinary pair of headphones away from the desk, which a fixed microphone makes awkward.

At just 260g the Nova 3X stays comfortable deep into a session, because mass is what decides whether headband pressure builds into a distraction. The robust dual-hinge design gives the earcups enough movement to sit flat on different head shapes and to fold without loading a single joint, which supports extended daily use.

Battery life reaches 38 hours, covering days of continuous use or several weeks of evening play before a cable is needed. That runtime is what makes the wireless connection practical for long gaming sessions and daily use, because charging becomes something you plan rather than something that stops a match.

360° spatial audio technology provides precise directional sound, letting you pinpoint teammates and opponents by where their audio is coming from rather than only that it happened. That placement is the competitive edge, because direction tells you where to turn before anything reaches the screen in front of you.

This white Arctis Nova 3X carries SteelSeries part number 61690, the code that identifies this colourway and its USB-C dongle configuration. Engineered for comfort and durability, it is built for long gaming sessions and daily use on any compatible device rather than being tied to a single console.
