SteelSeries Arctis GameBuds (Universal) $148 (was $200) | Compatible with all consoles, PC, and mobile. See at Amazon See at Best Buy SteelSeries gaming headset deals aren’t all that uncommon, but discounts on the manufacturer’s gaming earbuds? Those have been practically nonexistent since SteelSeries launched the Arctis GameBuds last October. But now, ahead of Prime Day 2025, Amazon is offering a great deal on the best model of the best all-around gaming earbuds we’ve tried. For a limited time, you can get the Arctis GameBuds with universal compatibility for $148 (was $200).This model is officially licensed by Xbox and is technically marketed toward Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows players. But like all SteelSeries wireless over-ear headsets, the Xbox version offers support for PlayStation, too. And with two different connection types–2.4GHz and Bluetooth–GameBuds also work with Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, Steam Deck, PC, mobile devices–basically any device with Bluetooth audio support.See all SteelSeries Gaming Headset DealsSee all Gaming Earbud Deals – SteelSeries, Sony, Asus SteelSeries Arctis GameBuds (Universal) $148 (was $200) | Compatible with all consoles, PC, and mobile.

The GameBuds launched with a $160 MSRP, but recently, like some other tech brands, SteelSeries raised its prices amidst economic uncertainty. The GameBuds received the largest price increase, jumping from $160 to $200. Over-ear models from SteelSeries, including our top overall and top premium gaming headset picks—Arctis Nova 7X and Arctis Nova Pro–received $20 to $30 price cuts.The officially licensed PlayStation editions of the GameBuds are also on sale, though both the white and black editions–Xbox only has the black model–are selling for $180. Even if you’re shopping specifically for PlayStation and have no use for Xbox compatibility, you’ll probably want to snag the Xbox edition to save an extra $32.For a closer look at the first pair of wireless gaming earbuds from SteelSeries, check out our Arctis GameBuds review from last fall.SteelSeries Arctis GameBudsWireless Gaming Earbuds – Early Prime Day DealsSteelSeries Arctis GameBuds (Universal, Black) — $148 ($200)SteelSeries Arctis GameBuds (PlayStation, White) — $180 ($200)SteelSeries Arctis GameBuds (PlayStation, Black) — $176.34 ($200)Sony Inzone Buds (White) — $158 ($200)Sony Inzone Buds (Black) — $158 ($200)Asus ROG Cetra Wireless Earbuds (White) — $70 ($100)Asus ROG Cetra Speednova Wireless Earbuds (White) — $170 ($220)PlayStation and PC players should also consider Sony’s Inzone Buds while they are on sale for $158 (was $200). Inzone Buds offer markedly superior active noise cancellation and use the same audio drivers found in Sony’s flagship 1000XM5 earbuds. That said, Inzone Buds aren’t as versatile as GameBuds. You can use the included 2.4GHz USB-C dongle to connect wirelessly on PS5, PC, Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, Steam Deck, and mobile devices. Sony Inzone Buds – Wireless Gaming Earbuds with ANC $158 (was $200) | Compatible with PS5, PC, Switch, Mobile See at Amazon Sony Inzone Buds – Wireless Gaming Earbuds with ANC $158 (was $200) | Compatible with PS5, PC, Switch, Mobile See at Amazon But when it comes to Bluetooth, Sony went with Bluetooth Low Energy instead of the conventional Bluetooth 5 series (5.3 is common now). The problem with Bluetooth LE is that only a select number of Android phones support it. Apple doesn’t use Bluetooth LE, and there aren’t any major game consoles that support it either. As a result, Inzone Buds can’t double as Bluetooth earbuds for general audio on your iPhone.I personally still use Inzone Buds with my iPhone, but just know that you’ll need to be cool with having a wireless receiver attached to your USB-C port. This also means you’ll want a wireless charger since the receiver occupies your USB-C port. You can get a two-pack of Anker wireless chargers for $28 (was $40) at Amazon. For a portable option, check out this popular 10,000mAh magnetic power bank for $23 (was $35).For a more budget-friendly pair of gaming earbuds, the Asus ROG Cetra Wireless Earbuds are on sale for $70 (was $100). The ROG Cetra does not have ANC, but these stylish Bluetooth earbuds can sync with PS5, Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, PC, Mac, iOS, and Android. Asus also has a higher-end model called the Speednova that adds 2.4GHz audio as well as adaptive ANC. But even with a $50 discount, the ROG Cetra Speednova costs more than the Inzone Buds and GameBuds, both of which we’d recommend over the $170 pair from Asus.If you’d prefer a traditional over-ear gaming headset, Amazon has deals on a bunch of SteelSeries wireless headsets. Most notably, you can get the Arctis Nova 7X universal headset for $146 (was $200). For a budget option that’s also compatible with all platforms, the Arctis Nova 4X is available for only $85 (was $125).SteelSeries Arctis Nova Wireless Gaming Headset DealsArctis Nova 4X Universal (Black) — $85 ($125)Arctis Nova 5X Universal (Black) — $129 ($150)Arctis Nova 5 for PC/PS5 (Black) — $112 ($150)Arctis Nova 7X Universal (Black) — $146 ($200)Arctis Nova 7P for PS5/PC (White) — $160 ($200)Arctis Nova 7 for PS5/PC (Black) — $145 ($200)Arctis Nova Pro Universal (Black) — $299 ($380)Arctis Nova Pro PC/PS5 (White) — $243 ($380)Arctis Nova Pro for PS5/PC (White) — $272 ($380)Arctis Nova Pro for PS5/PC (Black) — $293 ($380)SteelSeries also recently launched the Arctis Nova 3 Wireless Headset, which is the most affordable wireless model in the Arctis Nova lineup at full price ($110).
