Amazing mouse, side buttons are a little small though and will sometime have connection issues but I have had similar connection issues with many other high end wireless mice.

The media could not be loaded. This mouse is absolutely awesome! I’m a hardcore raider in World of Warcraft Classic, and it has completely changed my game for the better. The response time is super quick, the battery life is excellent, and the buttons are easy to find and very snappy. Best Buy had it listed at $160, but I picked it up for $100 less—only difference is no box, and honestly, the box isn’t worth $100. The mouse itself is what matters, and the design is incredible. It’s a total showstopper on my desk setup. It’s also super lightweight, comes with a charging cable and dongle, and is true plug-and-play. Bonus: it works flawlessly on Mac too!

Pros: Lightweight, Fairly ergonomic, probably has cool lighting Cons: Dongle doesn't work. Wireless plug in adapter they give you doesn't connect to Steel Series software (Not to mention opening the software itself completely screwed my audio setup). Mouse doesn't like to be connected to your PC. Feels like cheap plastic and the box it came in looks like a recycled toy with a singular piece of bubble wrap to "protect" your product. It's a fantastic 75$ paperweight. I've owned dozens of gaming mice from MMO mice to FPS and this is absolutely the worst product I've tried. Embarrassing out of the package. Save yourself some money and buy a different mouse. If you need a 12 button, go with the Razer Naga(wireless) or the Corsair 12 button(wired).

The mouse is great and being able to control both the acceleration and deceleration is great. The problem is that I bought it from "Amazon Renewed". It didn't come with the high speed fob and the usb cable it had doesn't work. I expected on other reviews that the battery would run out but this thing cannot keep a charge more than 2 hours even with economy settings on. I suspect it was returned to "swap" with his old mouse and amazon just threw it in a box. I could live with the battery issues as I have replaced it but I had to order the fob from SteelSeries (Support was excellent, while I had to buy the fob itself they offered to replace the mouse for the battery issue) I would not recommend you buy things like this from the Renewed store as I doubt even Amazon has the necessary staff and expertise to really test it. Still, even buying the fob and using one of my spare LiON it was about $20 bucks cheaper. Take that for what you will.

Love my Aerox 9. Works great. GG software is gaming software that works decently. Only frustration is the scroll wheel can get gummed up and it's a pain to try and fix and clean, and sometimes it does not want to connect to the computer. But a quick on and off fixes it usually. Works great for World of Warcraft and other mmos. It's comfortable for long gaming sessions, too.

I've used many different computer peripherals over the years, as many people do, but this mouse is one I hunted down and grabbed it the moment I found the price I was looking for. I like the fact that it has so many buttons and are programable. There are many other mice that provide this type of capability, but I'm kind of pushed into SteelSeries because my MSI Laptop has a SteelSeries keyboard and light bar already installed so I feel it's nice to have less apps controlling that's than an app per device. So keeping everything with SteelSeries is preferencial to me. Great handling, the lighting could fill the mouse a bit better, it's more kept in the middle and base, and doesn't really glow outward very much. It's light and the battery lasts a good while for my needs.

My main game is an MMO as such it's nice to have commonly used functions available on the mouse with the press of a button. While Steelseries provides an excellent software for creating macros those that play fast paced combat games might feel this mouse is a bit too light for that, it's all personal preference for sure. The price on this mouse new is crazy, and I wouldn't normally consider laying out the "new" price (currently $150) for a mouse but I've got several steel series products and I love all of them. They have lasted several years of hard use and they are constantly improving their mouse application. This unit comes with the mouse, the usb C 2.4ghz dongle, an extension for the dongle c port on each side, and a cable that allows you to use the mouse as a wired mouse. It also works with bluetooth. This unit is reconditioned at this price point but that doesn't necessarily mean the mouse was repaired at some point, anything that gets returned open box can only be resold as reconditioned. You can find the mouse cheaper but it may be lacking the dongle and cable that came with this one. They aren't too expensive directly from steelseries on their web page if you need to purchase one. I've had several connection issues with this mouse disconnecting from the dongle and then I got hit with the firmware update loop that has killed so many of this mouse. At this point I can't recommend steel series wireless mice, I wish they'd just sell this thing wired and get rid of all the hassles with wireless. I know I bought this reconditioned but it still hurt to toss it in the garbage can when there was no way to fix it. No more reconditioned stuff, I should know better by now at least with full price you get a few years warranty unlike here where I'm just out sixty bucks that just got put in the trash can. The mouse itself has a usb c plug on it in front. This is used for charging the battery or if you want to use it corded. Any standard usb charger will charge this mouse. If your computer is a few years old and lacks usb c ports they can be added with a usb hub, a pci card, or there are adapters (usb C female to usb A male, this is a data only adapter and subject to the limitations of usb A) that can be bought on amazon not too expensive. I am using mine with the 2.4ghz dongle plugged into an A adapter it works fine, I can't tell you if I've limited mouse performance by doing this since the data transfer never attains usb 3 speeds but it's good enough for me. The weight of the mouse is kept low by the "honeycomb" construction of the plastic case and it is water resistant. My hands have always gotten sweaty after gripping the mouse for awhile, this open air approach works good for me, I don't notice my hands getting as slippery on the mouse as my other mouse products. The bottom of the mouse has a three way switch for 2.4gh/bluetooth, off (or cabled use). The steelseries mouse software will display battery readout and notify you if there is a firmware update for the mouse. As with everything these days you have to download the software yourself from steelseries web site the mouse does have some onboard memory if you want to use your mouse on a different computer that may not have your setups on it already. Battery life is supposed to be something like ten hours of continuous use and it charges pretty fast. It came out of the package with 90% charge on it and only took about 5 minutes to reach full charge. Charging it for only fifteen minutes gives many hours of use from reports and reviews. This mouse is kind of a niche product it's got many more uses than just game macros you could add functions for many packages from CAD to wordprocessing or publishing software very easily. Of course now I've taken the plunge steelseries has the mouse on sale on their web site at about thirty dollars off. For the difference I probably would have gotten a new one for the warranty but I'm not going to return this as I'm confident it will be just as durable as a new one might be. If you find yourself using many different functions in just about any sort of application and wished you had a way to program keystrokes for easier access then this might be a product you will like. I've only used one other product with all these buttons and that one didn't last very long because the company doesn't use the best switches in their products I'm not worried about that with steelseries. I do not have particularly large hands, in fact they are rather small and I find the mouse comfortable to use, learning to hit the button array on the side accurately takes a little practice but you'll get it. Having all those choices lets you put stuff you use all the time where your thumb naturally rests etc. It is definetly lighter than my other steelseries mouse but I don't find it "too light" which seems to be the universal complaint about this product when you read the reviews by gamers. It's nice having one less cable draped around my desk to get caught on something. update: June 2024. Mouse "was" working very well until tonight it suddenly started flashing red continuously. Windows 11 had just released another round of service packs and updates so I "assumed" that was likely the source of my problems. I could not get the mouse working after removing and reinstalling the steel series software and also got a "firmware update notification" as well but even after a supposedly successful update it just looped back into wanting to update the firmware over and over. I found several reports of the same issue with this mouse all from over a year ago. Steelseries suggests you try usb 2/3 usb ports or put the mouse on a different pc. I pulled out my asus gaming laptop and loaded the software on it. I had to "re-pair" the mouse to the dongle (press left right and the button below the scroll wheel simultaneously while switching the mouse into 2.4gh at the same time and wait for led's to flash white. I managed to get the mouse working again on the laptop but when I put it back on my desktop within a few hours the same issue reoccurred again. I haven't completely given up on the mouse yet but apparently it's not an easy fix, not even a youtube on how to fix it. I really enjoyed the mouse while it worked and less than six months for such an expensive mouse is very disappointing. The bright side is that the dongle appears to be universal and not tied to the specific mouse it comes in the box with so I can possibly get another reconditioned unit and it will work with the dongle I've already got. Very disappointed, didn't expect this from a steel series product all my other products from them have been great and just keep on going. About to contact the company to see if they can offer any other ideas for getting it working again. Haven't had any more luck getting this working, I suppose every great company is entitled to a clunker every once in awhile but this was a very expensive clunker for sure. Just reinforces my belief that a mouse like this should be wired not wireless.
