Conclusion
So, how does the Arctis 7P+ perform overall? Compared directly to the Arctis 7P, it’s more of an interation than an update, the main differences being longer battery life, USB Type-C for charging and a smaller wireless receiver. I was able to achieve the stated battery life of around 30 hours in practice and the quick charge function, which is supposed to charge 3 hours of runtime in just 15 minutes, also works well.
I can also praise the multi-platform approach, on all specified devices, the headset is immediately recognized and does its job without any problems. By the way, the colour matches the Quest 2 very well. For me personally, the sidetone function was rather annoying, but there are supposed to be enough people who want to hear themselves while talking. And since it can also be turned off directly on the headset, no problem for the rest. The data sheet states a range of up to 12 meters, in reality the use was possible one room further with the door open, but if you then go another room away from the system there are connection dropouts.
And then I come to the negative aspects, which I find a bit annoying in view of the high price range. If you put the headset on first and only then switch it on, it beeps unpleasantly in your ear. Perhaps a more pleasant signal tone could have been selected. You could already hear for yourself the microphone quality in wireless mode and the proprietary cable connection also bothers me. Above all, the recording in cable mode shows that the microphone is not the limiting factor here, but rather the compression for wireless transmission.
On Teamspeak, people immediately noticed that I sounded significantly worse than usual. And is that what you want to hear after buying a headset that costs almost 200€? The freedom of movement of a wireless headset is not worth the big sacrifice in sound quality, in my opinion.
