    I bought this for MMO gaming FF14, some Horizon, and tested this on WOW just because. For MOBA tested this on LOL and DOTA. For work in the IT field the buttons made production smooth and fast. Pros; Very Light, Fast mouse, very responsive, and battery life excellent. Wireless is crazy good both Bluetooth and 2.4g, wired is a type c and charges this baby fast. Wireless dongle is type C as well, wheel tilt is very nice. Software is very easy to use lastly the mouse is very durable yes, I have dropped it twice. Now for the Cons, Button 3 makes me angry… it’s too far and I have long thumbs. I must move my palm to reach it. The wireless dongle seems to scare me even though it’s a type c it seems kind of fragile. Lastly, I had to buy a raised nub for the buttons even though button 5 has a raised marker while in crazy raids my thumb got lost. The price is hefty for a mouse but I needed a wireless gaming mouse. Last con... I lost my back button… It took me 3 weeks to get use to this mouse, even with the cons I still recommend the mouse it’s worth the buy.

    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.

    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.

    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

    If you like mmo’s this is by far my favorite mouse I’ve found. Or if you just like having a lot of buttons on the side. It’s also far lighter than most mmo mouse’s.

    It’s a okay mouse but sometimes it loses connection while using it. I’m not sure if it’s an occurring problem with this mouse or if it’s just defective. Even using it as a wired connection it still occurs. But having the extra side buttons are amazing I love them! I thought they would’ve been softer to press but other than that it’s a good mouse/ easy to use!

    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 have had this mouse for a month and so far so good. It is incredible light and it has a fast response time wirelessly as well as wired. I have used it for things as little as playing on the web and as much as playing MMORPGs and it has never let me down. The programmable buttons make using macros and commands a snap and I couldn't really ask for a better mouse for the things I do with it.

    I have the Logotech G502, G604, and Naga Trinity. I prefer this mouse. I use it for fps as a Tarkov main. It makes leaning while moving and shoulder swapping more intuitive and smooth. Definitely recommend even if its for fps and mmo.

    This is a great and solid mouse for MMO play, works straight out of the box with little user configuration. I was already a fan of the Aerox 3 2022 version and this further expands on the strengths of that design. I originally bought this as a backup mouse to accompany my Corsair M65 Elite but I’m finding myself using this one more often. Just feels good.

    Great as a mouse, bad for mmos

    This is a really strange product - on one hand, it’s extremely light and accurate, and is an objectively excellent regular mouse. On the other hand, the 12 key mmo pad on the side is very poorly designed. As opposed to most mmo oriented mice, the buttons are slow to click and have a very defined press to them, so you cannot actually use it comfortably in game. It’s more for if you are playing an fps game and somehow need 12 rarely used keys bound. Spamming buttons on the mouse is an ergonomic nightmare because of the poor keypad placement and the choice of click mechanism. I can use the mouse for approximately 30 minutes before experiencing enough pain from the poor ergonomics that I no longer want to use it - an issue that I have never had with the Razer Naga, Corsair Scimitar, or Logitech G600. Considering only RGB features, weight, and standard mouse usage I’d give it a 5/5, but this product just doesn’t work as an MMO mouse. I’d still recommend the Aerox 5 or 7 for fps gaming.

    Pros: Comfortable mouse, good performance, and 0 issues with wireless pairing. Water resistant is a really nice plus, my last one died due to an drink accident. Cons: Number pad is not adjustable, 123 can be hard to reach if you have a claw grip. Not cursor speed buttons are a big minus. It's pretty pricey, but hopefully that means good build quality and it'll last for a long time.

    Excellent multipurpose mouse. If you need something light enough for competitive fps but with enough programmable keys for MMOs and MOBAs, this is really the only option. Excellent build quality with TTC Gold Switches.
