The Astro A40 TR Headset + MixAmp Pro 2017 are slightly better-wired gaming headphones than the SteelSeries Arctis 7 Wireless 2017. The Astro are slightly more comfortable, their MixAmp allows you to customize your audio on the fly, and they have a better overall performing boom microphone. The Astro are advertised as being console locked, and may not be the best choice if you like to move between different consoles. The SteelSeries, on the other hand, leak less sound, have a 24-hour battery life, and can also be used wirelessly. However, you won't be able use them with a wireless connection on Xbox One since they don't support Xbox One Wireless.
