Huge upgrade over the Rival 600.
Style: Wired
Pattern Name: Aerox 5
Huge upgrade from the Rival 600 that I used previously, there's no more rubber pads that fall off the sides and it has a great ergonomic feel. The main reason I bought this mouse was for the reduced weight and it is shockingly light! It barely feels like I have anything under my palm and the mouse slides with zero effort. I also really appreciate the upgraded "floppy" braided USB-C cable for this mouse compared to the Micro USB rubber cable on the Rival 600. The cable is so flexible it almost feels wireless at time. I'll update my review in time if anything negative comes to mind, but so far everything feels 10/10.

Great for long hours of gaming!
Style: Wired
Pattern Name: Aerox 5
Love this mouse - it's about half the weight of my previous logitech mouse; and super comfy for long hours of gaming. Had it for a few months now and haven't had any issues at all. Clicks super nicely; is super reactive; and looks nice on the desk. Only tidbit is that you cant click the scroll wheel sideways to side scroll; so it's not much use for spreadsheets and the like! But my favorite mouse I have owned so far.

A better quality mouse.
Style: Wired
Pattern Name: Aerox 5
Sturdy, like the texture feel, large gliders, excellent weight and button response. I moved from the Glorious model O and D, these are good mice but the left click was not always positive. The left click on this Aerox 5 is superior, precise, and 100% responsive. I like the extra programable buttons, their placement taking some getting used to, but work very well. The less gaudy RGB is appreciated, as is the curser accelleration/decelleration in software, but the best thing is the PRECISE button feel/response of all the switches!!! They should make a slightly smaller version.

Decent but be aware of defect ones when you receive
Style: Wired
Pattern Name: Aerox 5
I've used this mouse little over one month now. Overall, this mouse is pretty light and decent itself for gaming. But then I am not sure if only mine does this, the left click doesn't work sometimes. I need to click it with little more power than any other mouse I've used. I was too lazy to return and get new one, then after a month, I am just used to it so doesn't bother me much . Since right click doesn't have problem, I guess only mine is defect one. Thou, I would recommend this mouse if you prefer light weight mouse.

Favorite concept, worst mousewheel (died in just under 2 years)
Style: Wired
Pattern Name: Aerox 5
Others have mentioned the same scenario, if you use your mouse regularly dust/grime WILL get into the encoder for the mousewheel, causing it to skip and/or reverse direction. I'd go in and clean it myself but I'm hesitant since steelseries made sure it was as hard as possible to disassemble the mouse. Between the screws being behind the hard-plastic pads under the mouse and clips holding the mouse together being placed at a difficult angle beneath the mouse buttons, I'm worried I'll break this thing before I even get close to the source of my problem. There are two reasons this mouse isn't getting a lower score: 1. The shell design allows for amazing airflow, so you'll never have to deal with a sweaty palm with prolonged use. 2. There is NO rubber grip on this. Between the lightweight build and lack of sweat concerns, there's no need for grip/textured surface that will eventually wear away or build up filth. Both of these were major problems I had with my last mouse which this one completely fixed. If SteelSeries can just properly seal up any sensitive parts like the encoder so they aren't prone to dust buildup then it'll be one of my favorite products. Edit: A little under 2 years after purchase, my mouse finally broke. I assume something within short-circuited since it died while I was playing a game with friends. I spent some time disassembling it since it was past the steelseries warranty and attempted a repair, to little success. It came back for a moment before dying once more. Still baffled why the encoder is just completely exposed at the top. That incredibly questionable choice is the source of EVERYONE'S mousewheel problems. In the last minute of life I breathed into my mouse I had removed some lint and debris and, sure enough, it was fixed. These things are designed to fail.

Worth the money
Style: Wired
Pattern Name: Aerox 5
I love this mouse. It’s very lightweight and I like that I can change the colors in it to match’s my keyboard. It does keep my hand cool because it is pretty much completely ventilated. The side buttons are nice for people like me who are new to m&k and can use them for crouching or other actions you do frequently.

A unique mouse for a high price...
Style: Wired
Pattern Name: Aerox 5
Don't let my headline confuse you, I love this mouse! I just feel like most tech that it's priced WAY higher than what it's probably worth. Buuut! Other than the high price tag I gotta say that there's nothing not to like about it! It's lightweight, very responsive, NO rubber grips and it has a very accessible set of side buttons! On the thought of the side buttons I mentioned in my headline that the mouse is unique. Now what makes it unique? The um... Flipper(???) side button! Just above the two standard side buttons is a single button or switch that you can flick up or down for separate actions! This is freaking awesome for anyone that wants more key-binds on their mouse without speckling said mouse with a ton of tiny buttons.
