Our Verdict

SteelSeries Arctis 9X Wireless

Beats Solo Pro Wireless

The SteelSeries Arctis 9X Wireless and the Beats Solo Pro are designed for different purposes. The SteelSeries are wireless gaming headphones. They're more comfortable, have a virtual soundstage feature, and a significantly better overall boom mic performance. They also have a longer continuous battery life, a customizable sound profile thanks to their companion software, and they support Xbox Wireless for a lower latency connection suitable for gaming. Conversely, the Beats are casual-use headphones. They have an ANC system that's able to block out more ambient noise, and they have an H1 chip so that you can seamlessly pair them with your Apple devices.
