SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless - Holey RGB Gaming Mouse - Ultra-lightweight Water Resistant Design - 18K DPI TrueMove Air Optical Sensor - Lag-free 2.4GHz / Bluetooth Wireless - Snow

Great mouse - very light and glides nicely. Lighting looks very good and comes with a nice braided cable. Haven’t tested the Bluetooth, as for the 2.4G mode it is very responsive and I feel no difference to my old wired mouse. It is easy to map the 3 extra buttons to whatever using the steelseries engine, as well as configure the lighting. The battery life is on the shorter side - it is clear they prioritised a lower weight over battery, as depending on usage and settings it can run out quickly. However it works perfectly well plugged in and charging. Lastly, this hasn’t been a problem for me but if crumbs or debris were to make it inside the mouse, to disassemble it and remove them you’d have to remove the mouse feet which from a repairability standpoint is disappointing, as battery replacements will similarly need to do this. Also if you’re left handed like I am, this mouse is almost symmetrical apart from the side buttons, so is suitable for left handed use.

Better than any wired mouse I have used. The Aerox 3 has a long lasting battery life, there's zero latency for me making it responsive and quick to use, the bluetooth connection is seamless and connects within a second or two of switching it on. Accurate when I used it with my PS5 to play video games, and all round a really lightweight and perfect mouse for the price.

In the realm of gaming mice, the SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless Snow (2022) stands out as a formidable contender, earning a solid 4-star rating. Its prowess in gaming performance, coupled with a comfortable design catering to various grip styles, makes it a noteworthy choice for gamers. However, a caveat looms in the form of a misleading battery life claim. The Aerox 3 excels in the gaming arena, boasting a responsive sensor and low latency, ensuring a seamless experience during intense gaming sessions. Its wireless capability, particularly through Bluetooth, adds a layer of convenience for those who prioritize cord-free gaming, however I do not use this and instead use their wireless dongle provided in the box. I recommend the Bluetooth connectivitiy for casual use, such as browsing the internet or working. Designed with comfort in mind, the mouse offers a satisfying grip, accommodating both palm and claw grip users. The well-thought-out shape and weight distribution contribute to a comfortable and precise control experience. Yet, the shine is somewhat dulled by a discrepancy in the stated battery life. While SteelSeries boldly declares a 200-hour battery life, this claim only holds true when utilizing Bluetooth. Those relying on the wireless dongle will find themselves reaching for the charger sooner, with a battery life of approximately 70 hours. Despite this hiccup, the SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless Snow (2022) remains a top choice for gamers seeking a potent blend of performance and comfort. Its versatility in accommodating different grip styles ensures a broad appeal. Potential buyers, however, should be cautious and consider the actual battery life based on their usage patterns. If for example, your previous mouse was a Logitech G Pro Wireless or G303 (Shroud Edition) then the battery life will be extremely noticeable.

I used to be a massive, massive Logitech fanboy but when their quality started to take a nosedive some 10 years ago I kind of became a brand tourist so-to-speak.... I tried quite a few different brands of gaming peripherals before finally discovering SteelSeries. I tried Razer, I tried Corsair, I tried a few others but none came close to the quality I was used to with the older Logitech products. Not just in build quality but also just in design and practicality/ergonomics. SteelSeries is by far even better than my older Logitech products. Their software is better, their designs are better and their specifications are better. They also tend to have the most innovative products with features few other brands have. I have their magnetic keyboard and OMG what a beast of a keyboard, miles better than the mechanical keyboard I had from Corsair and Razer before. Well this mouse is no different, it is water resistant, it is lightweight, has a good battery life, a lot of customisation options in the SteelSeries software (with lighting, lighting effects, battery saver options vs high performance options, and button customisation among many other things). Sensor is great and works on pretty much any surface with or without mousepad and it is nice that it works on both wireless with dongle and bluetooth and also can just be used wired if you need to charge it while using it. Wired it works just like a wired mouse (not the case for all brands!!!) in my case the extension cable used to plug the dongle in is also my charging cable and I just unplug dongle adapter from it and plug it into the mouse. The mouse uses virgin PTFE skates which is very important and provides much less resistance than standard PTFE skates (when you've used both you notice the difference right away, substantially less drag to it and they last longer too) It also has a braided charging cable so even when using wired it feels very light and the cable isn't adding drag like a normal cable does.

Wireless is now as lag-free as wired, so for me if you find a good mouse and it's on sale, snipe it. Furthermore, because I also have a heavier mouse that I use in parallel on my work pc, I can tell you that the weight makes a huge difference on how quickly I fatigue during gaming sessions or even work. This is a joy to toss around and it feel like an actual extension of my arm.

- Shape & Material This mouse is two times as expensive as the Razer Mamba Wireless. I loved the shape of the Mamba. It fits the hand so well. Now with the Aerox 3, the shape doesn't fill the palm that well, but its matte texture is on point. I prefer a smooth or lightly textured finish on larger mouses and a matte finish on smaller mouses. The matte finish on this mouse makes up for the flat form. - Battery Life The battery life on this device is much better than Mamba Wireless. I hated having to charge the Mamba Wireless every two or three days. That mouse always runs out of battery when I'm editing a video or working. So, this mouse is a lifesaver for me. - Weight I could immediately tell how light the mouse is when I picked up the Amazon package. It almost felt like an empty plastic packaging in my hand. I knew it was going to be very light but I didn't imagine it to be this light. Mindblowing! - Switches The mechanical switches feel just as solid as the Rival 650, which is another mouse that I really like from SteelSeries. I have nothing to complain about this mouse. It completely exceeded my expectations for it. This is my first superlight mouse. I haven't tried the G Pro X Superlight yet so I can't tell if the Logitech alternative is any better. For now I'm really happy with the purchase.

Die SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless ist echt klasse. Federleicht, liegt super in der Hand und das RGB sieht cool aus. Perfekt zum Zocken, Reaktionen gehen schnell und alles fühlt sich hochwertig an.

Nice light weight wireless mouse. My Main at the moment. Having used the RaZer viper mini and the cooler masters mm710 mm711 and the newer one too. Was using the Logitech 304 and realized that wireless mice are way better then wired ones. Got this Aerox on sale while waiting for the Logitech g pro super light to arrive from Amazon USA. The ptfe feet are good and no issues with it scratching so far My first sreelseries was the rival 500 and I loved it Recommended dearly

Great mouse for gaming, has changed the way games play, precise game winning speed works great over wireless, What a mouse, What a mighty mouse!!!!!
