First off I love steelseries. However this one specifically all of a sudden failed to work on me. It did last about a year and it felt great, but it didn't last unlike my other steelseries mice.

Battery does not last as long as advertised. Mouse constantly disconnects in 2.4Ghz mode. Sensor is subpar and does not consistently match DPI setting.

Great feature like macro and looks great, but doesn’t feel great while gaming, buttons on the side is placed awkwardly, not very convenient and hard to distinguish and press the right one. Had to switch back to my old gaming mouse.

The mouse would be good if they had thought about updating the software before releasing it. There is a Sniper button on the side that on other mice like the g502 allows you to actually let change your DPI in game this was doesn't its just a glorified function button very disappointing.

Lightweight mouse, smooth gliding, heavy software

This Aerox 5 mouse is really very lightweight, especially compared to a “standard weight” mouse. In fact, I thought at first that it might be *too* light to feel comfortable, but I quickly grew accustomed to it. The waffle-cut shell looks pretty cool, and I’m sure helps cut down weight. It also gives the moues a bit of texture, which is helpful because the plastic exterior is a bit slippery. Movement with this mouse feels fantastic due to the high-quality, super-smooth gliding feet and customizable DPI (which can be quickly toggled with one of the buttons).
The buttons are satisfyingly “clicky,” and two of the side buttons (“forward” and “back” on the side) are very convenient. I personally found two of the controls (the up/down rocker, and the silver button, both on the side) kind of awkward to use. Thinking about gaming sessions, I’ll end up wanting to map those to something that could save a keystroke or two, but aren’t needed in the middle of fast-paced action.
Battery life is also very impressive, especially given the aforementioned lightweight form factor. I haven’t had this long enough to drain the battery, but so far, it looks like I’ll be able to go quite some time in between charges. Also, the high quality cord provided allows for comfortable use while charging.
It’s convenient that this mouse works via Bluetooth or its with own proprietary wireless dongle, but do note: when using Bluetooth, most of the custom settings are unavailable.
Speaking of those custom settings, they are configured using SteelSeries’s GG software, which is loaded down with all sorts of features that don’t need (like recording and streaming gameplay, among others). I really would have preferred something lightweight like the mouse – just let me map the moues buttons and tweak the moues settings without all that other stuff.
I’m impressed with the lightweight design, super-smooth gliding action, and battery life of this wireless mouse. The buttons are a bit of a mixed bag, and the software is functional but a bit annoying. Overall, I think I’ll enjoy using it.

Poor button design and creaky

The button placement on the Aerox 3 is clearly designed for someone with very large hands. Even holding the mouse as far forward as comfortable, it was still a stretch to reach the dront thumb button. The top thumb button is also a poor design and difficult to actuate. The mouse is also very creaky, with substantial flex on the left side and moderate flex on the right.

Connection Issues

It is disappointing that I have to return this mouse after one day of use, because other than one MAJOR flaw, it is an awesome mouse. This thing disconnects mid use and blinks white repeatedly, meaning it has to be paired again. It does this about every 30 mins or so, which makes the mouse conpletely useless. If you don't believe me, google "Aerox 5 wireless connection issues" and you will see thousands of people having this issue. It is not a one-off issuez it WILL happen to you if you purchase it. Stay away from this mouse, as well as anything Logitech, they also have connection issues. You will not have these issues with Razer.
