    I really like this mouse it works really well and the battery lasts forever. It also has this dope feature that when you hand isnt on it it will kinda turn off to save battery. No lag/latency.

    Beautiful RGB with a lot of customization and even the option to have them turn off while the mouse is moving to save battery life, the stock slides and ultra light weight design make this mouse glide weighless across the mousepad. The indepth customization of the side buttons Is beyond impressive, and being able to have up to 5 dpi settings is very nice. Highly recommended this mouse for gaming and recreational purposes

    I have owned just about every mmo mouse on the market over the years from logitech, to razer nagas, which have gone way down hill in terms of quality in recent years, to corsair scmitars. This steel series mouse is hands down the best mouse ive ever laid my hands on. The responsiveness and light weight of it is extraordinary amd gives a precision in gaming I've never felt before. Higly recommend for mmo and all gamers in general who like to button map.

    If you are thinking of upgrading your mouse, this is the mouse to get. I wish i had done it sooner. I was using my old Razer mouse and had so many issues with software for Razer products. No issues with Steel Series and my settings carry over from my desktop to my laptop seamlessly with sync on. No setting up the settings over and over and it even works with a dongle using usb or you can use bluetooth.

    It's great. A lot of buttons on the side means I sometimes hit the wrong one, but I'd rather have that than not have the buttons.

    Ive had many mice in my years of gaming and PC building. This is my favorite so far. Its sturdy, well-built, visually appealing, super light, and wonderful to use. Ive had Arctis 7 headphones for a number of years now and they are still going. So when I went to replace my keyboard, I got this unit. Will stick to Steel Series products from here out.

    This is perfect, down to the build and quality, the buttons feel nice and the mouse is nice and lightweight. The only minor thing that I don't like is the shape of the mouse as it doesn't fit in my hand comfortably to my liking.

    Mouse is too large and the forward-most buttons can't be reached without stretching my hand. Software interface is also buggy and lacks some important customization options

    Functionality wise it’s amazing. Never fails me, battery life is amazing. Honestly the build quality could be better. The mouse clicks and center button/scroll wheel start wearing out very fast. It works well but everything about it feels cheap when the mouse is anything but.

    Great mouse. The number of thumb access buttons is strange at first but after a few hours and custom button assignments really helps in FPS games where quick action or macros are needed

    Excellent MMO Mouse, I play a lot of rpgs MMOs, and FPS games the lightweight makes it a great all rounder…my only gripe is that I wish it was a tad shorter as its a little awkward to claw grip in fps but otherwise its a great workhorse

    Very lightweight. If you don't have a lot of hand strength, it's a nice mouse to use. The buttons on the left were initially hard to press, but they became easier to press after a few days. This is a good mouse for a gamer, but also for disabled folks who can macro things to the side buttons to make tasks easier on a computer.

    Lasted 1.5 Months, was great until that point. Scroll Wheel FAILED, After using multiple SteelSeries mice for years I figured I just got unlucky. (Most recent one lasted 4 years of constant use before i dropped it when reorganizing my desk, RIP) Got a Second mouse and it had the same exact problem not even a month later. After some online forum hunting it seems pretty common for SteelSeries mice lately to have Encoder issues with mouse wheels(more specifically, the Aerox line). If it wasn't for the bad encoder that these come with then I'd say this is my favorite SteelSeries mouse to date. The Weight(for 12 side buttons is great) and the Mesh top(has skeptical but wow i can't go back, sweaty hands begone) have both been a pleasant suprise. Design wise I really cannot complain about it, its incredible. Get the warranty if you want this thing.

    I returned the Razer Naga v2 Pro because it was so heavy that I couldnt lift it without pressing the buttons (when in 12 button mode). The aerox 9 i does not have that problem. You can flick this mouse around vigorously with your fingers on the buttons and they wont press. Great quality. It feels good in hand, but the most forward 2 rows are difficult to reach without twisting your hand.

    To be fair, if the buttons were reachable and not super firm, I would’ve kept it. The weight is great, software could be better. It’s OK.

    misleading battery life.

    feel is great, much better than something like the unreasonably chunky Razer Naga. It's a mouse, and a good mouse, it does mouse things. You will not get the rated battery life. That was the time Steelseries got with the mouse in efficiency mode. which turns off RGB and set the mouse to 125Hz Polling rate. nobody would ever use 125. With the mouse at 1000Hz and RGB on, expect less than half the rated battery life, so I recommend turning off RGB and leaving the polling rate at 1000.
