SteelSeries Aerox 5 Wireless
A versatile multi-genre mouse with extra buttons, light weight, and solid wireless performance.
Our Review
The SteelSeries Aerox 5 Wireless bridges the gap between ultralight FPS mice and button-heavy MMO mice. At 74g with 9 programmable buttons (including a side rocker switch), it handles everything from shooters to strategy games. The TrueMove Air sensor, dual wireless connectivity, and IP54 water resistance make it a practical all-rounder for gamers who play across genres.
