The frame of the headband itself is made of a sturdy, lightweight aluminum, giving it a premium feel without feeling like it could snap if stretched too wide. The headband can be adjusted to accommodate various head sizes, and when dialed in properly offers a very snug fit without causing any discomfort. In fact, the headset almost floats above your head with its suspended design. Both headsets feature the signature Ski Goggle Headband that offers extreme comfort without putting much pressure on the top of your head. Much of the design from the original Arctis 7 remains unchanged, and the Arctis 7X and Arctis 7P are virtually identical to one another, aside from a few minor differences. Both headsets include a USB-C to USB-A adapter cable, allowing you to plug the dongle into just about any USB device. The dongle included with the Arctis 7X is a bit larger to allow for Xbox wireless audio compatibility and features a toggle for “Xbox” or “USB” while the Arctis 7P does not feature a toggle.
