Customer Ratings & Reviews

The mouse is super light! buttons feel great. The rocker switch is a little odd. would much rather prefer 2 separate traditional buttons. 0 noticeable difference between wired and wireless mode. Downsides? The rated battery life is with the mouse in efficiency mode. which is 125Hz polling rate and all lights off. nobody wants a gaming mouse with 125 polling rate so I don't know why that was what was used to determine battery life. With it set to 1000hz and lights enabled. expect less than half the rated battery life. maybe less.

Excellent mouse. lightweight, hold charge very good, RGB works great with software and is in-sync with mouse pad. Software easy to use. Fits my hand perfectly.

Mice just keep getting better and better. Lighter and lighter. This mouse is amazing. No complaints.

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 nice movement, and light are nice, my son likes it alot and says its sleek.

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

Very lightweight, easy to connect, and easy to bind and unbind all the buttons to do exactly what you need.

Lightweight and easy to use. Very customizable rgb settings.

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.

Lightweight and good and clicky mouse holds a charge for 2-3 days of continuous use

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.

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.

Great mouse for new computer system! Grandson is very happy!

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.

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.

Worth the money all day looks great and performs really well

I have this mouse and the Aerox 9 this beats it eveytime super light weight! And has just the right amount of buttons without making it overwhelming

This is probably the best mouse that I have ever purchased. It feels great and is ergonomically designed. My old mouse used to put pressure on my wrist area. This one doesn't. An extra button on the top allows you to choose the scrolling speed.

Great, lightweight mouse way more consistent with my income since I got it

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.
