SteelSeries Siberia 840 Review – In search of the best wireless gaming headset, I thought I'd stop at Razer's latest ManO'War . That was before I stumbled upon the newly launched SteelSeries Siberia 840 wireless gaming headset. After using it for some tim...
Lightweight design, Premium look and feel, Comfortable to wear, Generous connectivity: supports all gaming platforms with multiple connections, Bluetooth support, plus, audio works simultaneously from both a Bluetooth device (such as your phone) and a se...
Might feel a bit tight for those wearing glasses (untested as I don't wear one), Turning the Transmitter Box off (set to Standby) still requires a few presses and selections. But you never really need to turn it off and on now. You can simply switch betw...
SteelSeries Siberia 840 really excels in everything and truly holds SteelSeries claim for being the Best Wireless Gaming Headset. It has a somewhat slim design for what it offers, every connection that you can think of possible to many, multiple gamin...

The SteelSeries Siberia 800—once known as the “H Wireless”—has long battled it out with the Astro A50 as our favorite stupidly expensive gaming headset. The A50 had slightly more spacious audio and a more comfortable form factor, while the Siberia 800 had...
Still, I think the 840s make a decent contender. Astro and SteelSeries are basically the only ones playing in the $300 end of the sandbox at this point, and I think there are points in favor of both the A50s and the 840s. What SteelSeries needs now...

SteelSeries were kind enough to send me one of their latest products, the Siberia 840 headset, retailing around £299 here in the UK, and €349 in the rest of Europe. At a fairly premium price, I wanted to know what the Siberia 840's had to offer consumers...
In conclusion, I think the SteelSeries Siberia 840 headset is a gem. I thoroughly enjoyed my time using the device, and found both the aesthetics, performance and dare I say it, battery life, beyond expectations. Sound quality was fantastic, surprising me...

It's been too long since Steelseries have graced the halls of OC3D. Some of their peripherals are still benchmarks by which others can be judged. When it comes to affordable headsets one of our first thoughts is always "but is it better than a Siberia V2?...
There is no denying that the Siberia 840 is a premium headset befitting of its lofty price tag. Headsets live and die by their audio quality, but with wireless ones there is the added complication of their latency, wireless range and battery life.The Sibe...

In terms of design, for SteelSeries it is a little more toned down than your usual gaming headset which could be a way of trying to make it more useable outside of your gaming cave. It reminds me of the Lucid Sound LS-30 headset but bulkier. The device is...
If you have money to throw around, don't mind wires and a long set up process in exchange for the ultimate connectivity, control and audio quality then the SteelSeries 840 will be a faithful companion for your gaming set up. The added Bluetooth makes it o...
