I've been using the Aerox 5 mouse for almost a month now, and I'm really impressed. The ultra-lightweight design feels great in my hand, and the honeycomb pattern not only looks cool but also keeps the mouse well-ventilated during long gaming or work sessions. The wireless functionality and RGB lighting are great additions as well. Overall, a fantastic gaming mouse with a sleek design and excellent performance.

I needed a replacement for the wired one. I really like the button placements on this mouse and the grip has always been comfortable for FPS gaming. Actually, any type of gaming, but I have been on FPS games mostly. I was worried or hesitant over the wireless performance, but it is actually great if not better. Comes with a usb-c receiver that plugs into the computer or an adapter. Battery life is fine. I am not sure what to expect as for battery life. This is my favorite mouse, and it does what its designed to do. I also like the steel series driver.

Have always been a G502 fan, and always utilized all the buttons on it. This mouse has just as many and is also much much more lighter. Has improved my aim in FPS games, highly recommend!

Very lightweight. Works how it's supposed to. I am not super tech savvy, but my brother who is recommended it, and I have zero complaints.
I am definitely a casual when it comes to gaming, so I cannot speak on how long it holds a charge.

Great lightweight mouse. This is the second one I have purchased (due to needing 2. no problems) programable buttons are in good locations. Great for gaming and normal use

Absolutely terrible mouse and one of the worst tech purchase I have ever made.
1. Sensor stopped working after 1 year. Most mice die eventually due to mechanical issues like the switch springs failing but this mouse failed because of the electrical components. Mouse would connect and click but would not register movement.
2. Steelseries GG software is awful and is basically malware. It will constantly wake your computer up if you put it to sleep and eats up tons of resources in the background despite doing nothing. It can't even properly update firmware and occasionally wipes your profiles
3. Open architecture design is as terrible in practice as it is in concept. Yeah let's leave massive holes in the mouse so dust, sweat, and grime can drip down from your gamer hands onto sensitive electronic components. No real way to clean it either once debris gets stuck inside.
4. Wireless dongle takes up too much room. If you don't have a USB-C port on your PC then you will have to use a USB-A to USB-C dongle for the actual dongle. The wireless dongle also is way too bulky in general.
Here I am using my 10 year old Logitech G700s mouse to write this review because somehow it works better than my 1 year old Steelseries Aerox 5, though that's a low bar considering the Aerox 5 doesn't even work at all. It can't even accomplish basic functionality as a mouse. This is the first and last Steelseries product I am ever buying.

Comfy, well built, lightweight, but completely useless without the GG software despite having onboard memory. That's right, your onboard memory can't be used to store macros. Or literally anything that makes a multi-button gaming mouse useful. I'm done supporting companies that sell hardware products that only function as advertised when running spyware bloat on your computer.

Silky smooth movement and fast polling rate with a size that actually fits my longer fingers. Major downside is that most features don't work in bluetooth mode. Button mapping/macros do, but RGB and advanced features don't. I use this mostly for work and some gaming. The open back is a cool design and legitimately helps my hand from getting sweaty or greasy while using it all day.

Fantastic mouse!! the RGB options are awsome. I’ve had tons of wireless mice, but all felt too small. I dont have big hands, but this mouse feels perfect when gaming. Excellent battery life and seems to recharge quickly!!

Excellent mouse for gaming or any other use. Highly recommended. Best mouse I've ever owned.
Pros:
- Responsive
- Glides easily across mouse pad
- Looks great, nice RGB effects
- Lightweight but solid
- Good battery life
- Responsive mouse buttons provide good feedback
- Super comfortable
Cons:
- The sniper button on the left side of the mouse is hard to reach with my thumb. I have to move my hand forward on the mouse to reach it. I wish they had moved it back about a half-inch. Not a big deal, but something to be aware of.
Other:
The Aerox 5 is on the larger side, so it's especially good for those with larger hands, and is great if you use a palm grip for mousing.

The mouse is very smooth and feels nice. Only downside is the battery life. Have to charge it every other day, meanwhile my 8 year old wireless mouse will last a week with the same usage.

This mouse can connect to a pc via bluetooth, cord, or USB-C wireless adapter. If you don't have any USB-C ports available, the mouse comes with a 2 foot USB-A wire that will plug into the adapter (it's ridiculously long, lol). I ordered a converter from USB-A to C and have it jutting out of a port on my laptop. Not the safest, but much less frustrating than having to find a home for a coiled up wireless adapter. The battery life is what saves this mouse - I use it everyday and still only need to charge it once every 2 weeks.
