   So I'm gonna buy some headphones for gaming and also listening to music outside via my Android phone. Two candidates I'm torn between are Steelseries Arctis 1 Wireless and Arctis 3 Bluetooth. They're almost the same price and I assume use the same drivers although there are some differences in sound ratings here: https://www.rtings.com/headphones/tools/compare/steelseries-arctis-1-wireless-vs-steelseries-arctis-3-2019-edition/5455/831?usage=9287&threshold=0.1

 

Arctis 1 Wireless Pros:

Better wireless sound as it uses 2.4GHz wireless

EQ control through software

Can use wirelessly while gaming

 

Arctis 3 Bluetooth Pros:

No Dongle to connect to phone (It's not much of an issue as my phone is USB-C but still one less thing to lose)

Has the headband thing so more comfortable

7.1 surround

It's 3 instead of 1 so better??? (I really don't know)

 

  The other minor difference is that the 1 has a detachable mic and the 3 has a retractable.

  Please advise. I'm open to other suggestions too.
