In the hardware controls department, it isn’t very exciting but importantly everything crucial has been covered. There is quite a lot of resistance, to the point where they feel like they could break. The mic is flexible and has been keyed at the plug to ensure it always goes in the correct way.ĭespite being plastic, the Arctis 1’s aren’t the most flexible when pulling the earcups apart. The microphone feels very durable even when being bent. These feel close to the HyperX Cloud Stingers, with that all plastic design, yet these have a bit more give in them and the overall looks are much more appealing. I don’t want to be too harsh on the build quality as there are some redeeming features that I will touch upon shortly but despite being entry-level, these are nowhere near as robust as the Corsair HS60s. It isn’t all doom and gloom though, these have a lot of flex and yet no creaking, regardless of how aggressively I twisted them. They don’t feel very durable or study, despite being reinforced in the headband. The SteelSeries Arctis 1’s are the cheapest headset I’ve reviewed from the brand so far, being mostly constructed of thin plastic. These don’t scream “gaming headset” like a lot of the models we see on the market, making these quite versatile for the price. These are almost entirely plastic, which we will come on to shortly, and the simplistic black look is one I favor. That, sadly, is where the similarities end but that doesn’t mean these aren’t still an aesthetically pleasing, functional gaming headset. At first glance, these resemble the Arctis line, with the slightly squared-off oval earcups and prominent plush covers.
