Our Verdict
SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless
Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 Wireless
The SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless are more versatile than the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 Wireless. The SteelSeries are more comfortable, have a superior control scheme, and have a longer total battery life, courtesy of their included swappable dual batteries. They can also be used on a wired connection, unlike the Turtle Beach. That said, the Turtle Beach deliver audio more consistently.
