They go on to talk about how they believe headsets for gamers shouldn’t be like obnoxious toys defined by their specifications. When you open the box up, right on top is another paper, this time explaining that they don’t think any gamer is alike. Down at the bottom are a few features explained with numbers on the photos showing what they are talking about. The back of the box has the model name and with it photos of the headset from two different angles as well as a picture of the controller in the cord. This doesn’t tell you what model is in the box so hopefully it's not the retail packaging, but it does look cool. The front of the box is all white with lines with just the Arctis name down in the corner. So what I can only assume is to show that this is a completely different direction for SteelSeries, the actual packaging is a complete departure from what SteelSeries has done. So to start off, SteelSeries shipped the Arctis 5 in a second box for us and when I got into it op top of the actual packaging was this transparent paper with a note highlighting this isn’t a gaming headset, it is a headset designed for gamers. This happens sometimes, but they were cool enough that I thought you guys would all like to check them out. USB or Single 3.5mm, 4-Pole Plug via included adapterīefore jumping into the packaging for the Arctis 5, let me first point out that because this was a very special launch for SteelSeries there were a few things in our box that wouldn’t be in a retail box. So let's dive into the new features then see how they perform. Like their H series they have a couple of variations but for the launch they sent over the Arctis 5 and I’ve been testing it out and I finally have a little time to sit down and talk about it. But recently they actually introduced a completely new headset product line called the Arctis. They have revamped the H and Siberia lines multiple times and even had a few variations that were close to an all new design like the Siberia Elite. But in that time none of the new headsets have been a completely new design. In the eight and a half years that I have been doing reviews here at LanOC, I’ve had the opportunity to work with SteelSeries on every one of their headset launches.
