    My favorite Gaming Mouse

    This is has to be one of my favorite gaming mouses, super light weight, can be used with or without wire, which is very convenient. Love the different light setting you can put on it. My only issue with it is with the neat looking holes, dust and dirt can can inside and you have to blow it out or take the mouse apart to clean inside, which gets annoying. Other than that I've had mine for over a year and love it.

    I'm really satisfied with the SteelSeries Aerox 3 Super Light Honeycomb Mouse in Onyx because of its amazing performance and creative look. Being a serious player, I've discovered that this mouse is revolutionary in every way. The Aerox 3's lightweight honeycomb shell is groundbreaking in the first place. Its sleek, contemporary design is complemented by a substantial weight reduction that maintains the mouse's durability. My gaming sessions are now really pleasant and effortless thanks to this design element, which enables quick motions and fine control without tiring out. The Aerox 3 operates wirelessly and flawlessly. Even during strenuous gaming sessions where split-second reactions are important, I have never experienced any input latency. I can move about freely without having to worry about tangled wires thanks to the strong and dependable wireless connection, which has significantly improved my whole gaming experience. The Aerox 3's optical sensor offers performance that is unmatched in terms of accuracy and responsiveness. Whether I'm playing fast-paced first-person shooter games or making precise motions in strategy games, the Aerox 3 always performs accurately. In addition, I can adjust the sensitivity to my own tastes thanks to the DPI settings, which guarantee the best accuracy and control in every game scenario. Its RGB lighting, which not only gives my gaming setup a stylish touch but also improves the whole gaming experience, adds to its allure. I can customize the lighting effects on the mouse to match my gaming style or mood, which adds to the immersive environment and keeps me immersed in the game. All things considered, the SteelSeries Aerox 3 Super Light Honeycomb Mouse in Onyx has well above my expectations. It is an exceptional option for gamers of all skill levels because to its lightweight design, responsive performance, wireless ease, and configurable options. It has unquestionably earned a 5-star rating from me and has grown to be a vital component of my gaming collection.

    I see a lot of bad reviews about this mouse, but to me it’s about as perfect as a mouse can get. Lightweight. Wireless. Cool shell design. RGB. Slim, simple design. Not too bulky and not too many unnecessary buttons. Comfortable in hands. It’s just so awesome. My favorite part is definitely the stiff and grippy scroll wheel, very comfortable to use. If it’s on sale and you’re looking for a new mouse, here’s my recommendation:

    The mouse has the excellent breathable design to keep your palm from sweating, and is very responsive with the USB Type-C wireless connector. It can function while plugged in if you have the concern of it dying while you're using it, and has a great battery life. The only concerns I have is the design being as open as it is provides plenty of opportunities for debris to directly rest on the internals, possibly leading to irreparable issues down the road. The second is having to constantly turn off and back on the mouse to get it to connect when I first start up my PC, but that may be a problem on my end. Otherwise, excellent and responsive mouse that has been a great replacement to my old one.

    Excellent mouse. Lightweight and extremely customizable through the SteelSeries desktop app. My only con would be the battery life is less than sub par. About 7-8 hours with RGB on and 12-13 hour without. Long sessions would deplete the battery without warning and cause it to disconnect. It can be wired whilst charging so that is nice. USB-C connection and a female to female dongle is included to set the receiver wherever you choose. Overall I am extremely happy with the color and feel of the mouse.

    First tech product review ever.. yeah, this mouse is that good. I bought the Aerox 3 Wirelesss (Snow Edition) in April of 2022, and I have legitimately used it every single day since. I'm a senior college student, in the final semester of my BME. degree, and I only say this because of how much I rely on technology-365 days a year, like many of you, and I cannot overstate the value of having a high quality AND reliable product when your work/career/etc. depends on it. The mouse looks brand new, I've never experienced any issues with the physical product or the software. No scratches, no defects, no bugs. I would recommend this product simply because it is the most used AND the most reliable tech product I own.

    This is a solid gaming mouse to pickup if you want something wireless and are a fan of the Rival 3/Aerox 3 shape. I'm a fan of the shape as its great for a relaxed claw grip, and the rest of the mouse function well without issues. Pros: -shape -Great feeling main buttons -Mouse feet -Scroll wheel -Nice RGB/looks -Good wireless Cons: -Thin side buttons -Questionable long term reliability -Bit overpriced at $99 MSRP.

    This mouse rocks! It looks soo cool. I find myself just looking at it light up sometimes while using my PC. I love it! Will probably try the 5 to see what the extra buttons are like in Wow, but this is definitely success. The battery life is longer than I expected. This is the one you want if you dont need the extra buttons.
