Pattern Name: Aerox 9
I've only had my hands on this mouse for a few hours at this point, so I can't truly speak to how good or bad the battery life is. However, my initial impression is that this mouse more than serves its purpose. Regarding the SteelSeries GG/Engine functionality, I can safely say that the range of customization options, both for RGB and for the actual hardware, are expansive enough to leave even the most finicky of performance tweakers' content. For the accessories, I have a bit of an issue with the USB-C 2.4 GHz dongle. I'm using this mouse on a laptop with a single USB port, and having the dongle in said port effectively blocks me from using the adjacent USB-A port and one of the audio jacks. While using the mouse over Bluetooth is a solution, that does reduce some of the functionality, and felt like it introduced a bit of latency. The extender and braided USB-A to USB-C cable used to connect to the extender AND charge the mouse are pretty high quality and are honestly an expected inclusion for a mouse like this. For actual gameplay usage, the mouse does its job well. My only complaint is that in exchange for the iconic lightweight design the Aerox line offers, I'm making some sacrifices. I primarily purchased this mouse so that I don't have to steal my Logitech G600 from my desktop while using my laptop to play my favorite MMO. But the bulky G600 has a feature I'm having trouble to adapting to the Aerox 9 lacks: The third click button that when pushed in conjunction with the side keys, inputs them with the Control key modifier (1 becomes Ctrl+1, etc.). The reduced weight, better portability, and wireless functionality is a worthwile trade off, I feel, but this may not be the case for you if you are accustomed to having that ease of access in MMOs. Finally, we come to my main sticking point with the Aerox 9. The ergonomics. They are *mostly* flawless... With one glaring issue. When using the side keys, my thumb rests nicely on the second row where they have a nice nub to indicate where you are on the keys. But to reach the *top* row requires me to stretch and slightly rotate my hand in order to get a sure feel for which key I'm pushing and to reliably do so. This can be mitigated somewhat by resting your hand slightly higher up on the mouse, but this also takes away from the good shape of the mouse somewhat. If SteelSeries ever does a refresh on the design, I encourage them to look into bringing the side keys back towards the bottom of the mouse maybe even just two or three millimeters. In the end, I feel like this mouse can give you what you need if you are looking for a wireless MMO mouse, being one of the only ones available from a major, reputable brand that I've found. The mouse's software gives you full range to customize it to your needs, and the lightweight design makes most other MMO mice feel like bricks by comparison. The ergonomics issue can be overcome with adapting how you hold it somewhat, and it trades some functionality for the lightweight design. The dongle's width should be a non-issue for most users, and the accessories included are of a high quality. I do feel like I could safely recommend this mouse to a friend who needs a MMO mouse that has to be wireless, and perhaps even if they're just more accustomed to lightweight, low-profile mice than the monster-sized mice that most MMO mice are. *I may update this review down the line once I've gotten more experience with it.

Now this is coming from someone who has used multiple mice for years, and I am a keyboard and mouse enthusiast I would say. I have used many Logitech mice, including the G502, the G600 (discontinued) the G903, and more. I have used the Corsair Scimitar and the Razer Naga as well. Overall all of these mice, were good, you could easily press all of the 12 side mouse buttons without awkward handling angles, accidental clicks and discomfort. Also all of these mice, at least the ones that were wireless (most) and all other wireless mouse brands I have used come with a standard USB 2.4 dongle, the Steel Series Aerox 9 comes with a USB-C, which I do not have on my PC (I know that is my fault, but very inconvenient nonetheless). The Aerox 9 comes with a cable and and extension adapter, which I figured would work as my USB-C to USB adapter but that did not work and ultimately could not get it connected to my PC. I was very excited to add this mouse to my collection, like a kid awaiting Christmas is how I felt waiting for it to arrive. The design and look of this mouse was in my opinion so cool, and have always heard very good things about Steel Series so that is where my excitement came from. Upon unboxing, packaging felt nice, easy instructions; everything felt right and I was now excited to try it. First time picking it up it felt almost weightless and fit into my hand well (my hand size = 2XL glove size), I really enjoyed the initial feel, the skates now these were excellent gliding across my mouse pad in fierce competition with my Logitech G502 Lightspeed. They felt perfect for gaming. Next the adapter and cable mentioned earlier seem like great quality nothing wrong there besides the adapter extension not working as an adapter but I digress. Now lets get into the reason I am retuning this product, for what the mouse is, a 12 side button MMO gaming mouse it just simply is not going to work. The buttons specifically 1 2 & 3 seem impossible to reach, to reach I am finding myself needing to use extremely weird angles, causing misclicks with LMB & RMB, any way I try to hold this thing does not work for the side buttons. So the mouse is literally impractical and functionless unless you only want to use buttons 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, & 9 so only 50%. My wife (hand size = small glove size) gave it a try and it was even worse for her. With all the other options available for an MMO-Style mouse save yourself the trouble and skip this one and pray Gravastar releases a MMO-Style mouse.

I wanted to update my aging and discontinued mid level multi-side button Logitech mouse for my living room and bedroom PC's, where I do all my gaming.. it didn't work on just the bare recliner arm very well, so I needed to use a small wooden circle with an attached bean bag (for stability) sitting on the arm for smooth tracking.. I also wanted a mouse with a rechargeable battery and that could do wired, wifi, AND bluetooth as I have a second Mini PC in my living room and could use the mouse itself to switch between controlling either one... (and it works well for that actually, I have it connected via Bluetooth to the mini PC and Wifi and wired to the gaming PC and just flip the switch on the mouse to the appropriate position). I generally use a PS5 controller for more action oriented fps games (tho heartily agree that mouse and keyboard is the superior aiming control, I'm just a more casual single player game type). I'm usually in a recliner when gaming, so prefer to have a mouse with extra buttons so that i don't have to rely on a keyboard in my lap unless absolutely necessary.. tho not usually this many buttons as I at first thought this mouse was going to be unwieldy due to having SO many side buttons.. but I was pleasantly surprised upon trying the mouse and finding it fit my medium sized hands just right and all those side buttons (3 rows of 4) were actually easy to find and use with my thumb... no issues there at all thankfully. it's a really light mouse, which really isn't a detriment for me but I could see someone wanting one that perhaps feels a bit more substantial for more competitive play maybe.. and really, that's my only thing I can critique it for really.. of the two I bought, one just stopped being recognized as a usb device by any PC.. I suspect it was a manufacturing issue, bad chip.. havent had any issue with the replacement or the second mouse at all.. so, there's a lot really good about this mouse.. I don't usually leave reviews unless it's really deserved as I'm admittedly lazy, lol. let's go over the good... first, the software works great. Pairing and firmware updates can be a bit specific as they want you to plug the wifi dongle into the provided usb-c adapter via a usb-c cable rather than put the dongle directly into a usb-c port.. but it's a small inconvenience and only for initial or repairing or rare firmware updates.. and I wished the program opened up directly to the programming screen rather than the marketing page.. but it's super powerful software with tons of features, used for all their products.. you can have game profiles that automatically switch when you launch a game and as many as you like.. and any type of setting you can think of is there.. all buttons are programmable aside from the connection switch of course.. and tons of commands, windows shortcuts and combos, macros.. etc.. same for the LED lighting, which has three zones and tons of choices.. (tho I have it minimally set to a quick light up when a button is pressed to save battery life). but it works and has zero issues.. (unlike the awful Armoury Crate crap which is a slow memory hog that caused crashes on my beefy gaming pc) the mouse can be used via bluetooth, usb-c (recharged, wired), and wifi.. now with bluetooth, you can't do any programming or profiles and it eats a bit more battery life than the low power wifi.. but not much. battery life is really great. It's been maybe two weeks since my last charge for my living room mouseand i've got the minimal led and switching between bluetooth and wifi to control different PC's.. i use it almost daily and it's only at 55% at two weeks! it also charges fast.. so yeah, I do lose some extra functionality like changing profiles and such if using bluetooth but I personally don't need it, just basic regular functionality, for the second mini PC as that's just for media like youtube or plex while I'm gaming on the living room tv. another great thing about it is the sensor.. I can use this on any surface.. I think it's a proprietary one, not sure.. just know I now can just use my pants leg or recliner arm as my mouse pad where my last laser mouse still needed a separate surface for smooth tracking... so I highly recommend this mouse.. it's well built.. it's not at all huge but everything fits my medium sized hands great and the side buttons are not an issue at all and easy to find and use.. it's got great battery life and I really like the software as well.. it's got a use anywhere sensor and the worst thing I can possibly say about it is that it might be a little too lightweight for some is all. that's it. I also bought an Apex pro tkl wireless that was on sale for the living room (as it also has the same bluetooth/wifi/wired/recharge functionality) and i love that too and there are features in the software where you can co-ordinate the LED lighting if you want.. or have a game control it.. I just use the lighting for more practical low light reasons over any flashy ones and to help preserve battery life but both have excellent marks on that.. it's a bit pricey but for what ya get, it's fairly worth it and you can always wait for a sale as well. I've been using the Aerox 9 for[laying Baulder's Gate 3 and never need to use the keyboard.. love it! cheers!

The Aerox 9 is so close to being the perfect mouse for MMO players who also enjoy FPS, RTS, and MOBAs. It's relatively lightweight with a nice finish, the M1/M2 switches feel and sound great, and importantly for an MMO mouse, the side buttons are stiff enough and angled enough that players can flick this mouse or pick it up without worrying about misclicks. Unfortunately, the Aerox 9 has one major flaw that I suspect will be a deal breaker for a lot of people, myself included: the size. This mouse was designed for large hands, and the majority of people will struggle to find a comfortable grip. For example, my hands are 19x10 cm (medium size), and I use a claw grip. My thumb doesn't reach the first row of buttons (1/2/3), and I have to adjust my grip to comfortably reach the second row (4/5/6). The tips of my index and middle fingers, meanwhile, rest over the honeycomb pattern cutouts on the M1/M2 buttons, making left/right mouse clicks feel less precise. There are a few smaller issues with the Aerox 9, as well. For one thing, the sensor placement needs to be adjusted. The sensor should be moved away from the palm and up towards the front of the mouse, which would improve wrist aiming. Also, the scroll wheel is rather poor. The stock scroll wheel's performance is inconsistent (switching weapons in CS2, for example, doesn't always work as intended), and sometimes when I'm scrolling I can hear a soft noise from inside the mouse, like the metal chime of a tiny spring. If SteelSeries addresses these complaints in a revision, I'll happily buy that new Aerox 9. As it stands, I've chosen to return mine.

It has been 3 years and 2 months since my purchase, I finally encountered a catastrophic failure - so it is time for my official review. FAILED PARTS: The failed parts are the 1-3 keys. The 3 key works if I press it at weird angles sometimes. Seems like a mechanical failure, but I haven't opened it up yet. THE GOOD: Battery life and charging time were acceptable, I often charged between matches and unplugged during the game. Left and right click are still perfectly functioning even after HEAVY usage (DotA2, CSGO). Excellent for MMO and FPS games that require a lot of controls that are best split between two hands. THE BAD: The USB-C interface is recessed into the mouse, so if you have a charging cable with a particularly large shroud/sleeve it will not fit. The mouse seems to have some weird problems waking and connecting to my computer, this persisted even between fresh OS installs with the latest updates with the latest firmware. It never disconnected during a match unless the battery died. Once the connection is established, it is rock solid. But if you wake your PC from sleep, or power on from an off state, sometimes there are issues. You have to toggle the power switch a few times to get it working. If you're the kind of person who eats snacks while you game, this mouse is absolutely not for you - cleaning is a significant challenge. Dead skin and sweat builds up on the holes as is, but with food, it will be much worse. THE VERDICT: If you're on a budget, get the Corsair Scimitar. It seems to last longer. I am coming from a Corsair Scimitar that lasted 4 years and 3 months. The Steel Series Aerox 9 Wireless lasted 3 years and 2 months. That's over a year of additional playtime and you save like $10-$40 at the sacrifice of 40 grams of additional weight and a slightly different grip style. THE OTHER: The clicks are loud enough that you might drive someone in the same room a bit crazy, but if you're in a separate room its probably fine. Mouse profiles are exportable to a file and can be saved on-board. ADVICE FOR STEEL SERIES PRODUCT MANAGER: -Swap to solid body for easy cleaning. -Make the USB-C interface flush with the mouse body to maximize compatibility with charging cable shapes. -Review side-button mechanical longevity. I believe the failure has to do with pressing the 1-3 buttons at an angle instead of "dead-on" due to the button placement. -Review "wake" connection issues. -Review on-board mouse profile being overwritten when Steel Series software is freshly installed. This could be catastrophic for someone that did not back up their profile.

I'll cut right to the chase: This is a bad mouse. Now, I already have several other mice I use (and re-use) throughout the years for both work and MMO play. I wanted to see what was top of the line with wireless and this was about as expensive as they get. Was it worth it? No. Absolutely not. There are 50-100 dollar MMO mice on here (RedDragon, Razr) that I have currently own, use and have done me surprisingly well when I compare it to this mouse. What's good about it? Excellent feel and design. Buttons are large and might take a minute to get used to, but it really works well....when it does work...as a comfortable and stylish mouse to use. What's bad about it? Disconnects constantly & Battery life is crap. Battery is really closer to 48-36 hours....and that's not 48 hours of play, that's 48 hours of it being on, sitting still, on a desk. When the battery life gets low I know because then it starts disconnecting every 10 minutes. No real warning for it beyond playing a game with it...and then you're not. Trouble shooting it when it disconnects is also bizarre. It might disconnect because the computer went to sleep, the battery got low, or you opened the wrong window, or just at complete random. Sometimes it takes turning the mouse off and on. Sometimes it takes unplugging the dongle and plugging it back in. Sometimes it takes any combination of the two. Sometimes switching it back into bluetooth and then back into the other setting works. And, let me be clear, it disconnects everyday, multiple times. Hard for me to put a rough number to it but I'd say between 6ish times a day? It even just disconnected right now. I have another mouse I bought 3 years ago for 25$ off Amazon...Anker I think is the brand? It's not a gaming mouse, I use it for my work computer, but I put 2 double AA batteries in it when I first bought it and have yet to change them. It's also as reliable as the built in keyboard for the laptop it's dongle is plugged into. I can't think of a time I ever had to reset the link. This mouse by Steelseries is 6x the price of that mouse and a striking failure by comparison. It's a shame because, again, I do like the physical design....but I rarely come across something in tech these days that has such a distance between the elite price it's listed for and how cheaply made the product actually is. Should you buy this mice? Well, if you're like me, have an extra 150$ to burn in your life, two other MMO multi-key mice already plugged into your gaming PC as backup, and are somewhat entertained by failure, then maybe. But if that's not you, I would avoid this.

I saw this for the first time the other day and waited for a sale... and initial impressions are fantastic. It's way lighter than I'm used to, so tracking will take a bit of getting used to. Bluetooth option is a major plus for when I travel. The button grid is a bit larger than the Naga, but useable... comparable to the Corsair but the buttons are easier to find with my thumb. The only real downside so far is that the plastic on the right side is slippery (not rubberized). It has been difficult to pick up, it likes to slip out of my hand when doing liftoff maneuvers. I ordered some grip tape to fix this, so I expect that will be a non-issue soon. As long as it doesn't suffer from tracking issues 6 months in like every Razer I've owned, I think this will be my #1 MMO mouse for the foreseeable future. For a bit of background.... I've been using MMO mice exclusively for my MMOs for the last decade or so. I've tried all the major brand MMO mice. Started with the Naga when that first came out. Tried the G600 and the Corsair one when those came out. Bought a lot of Nagas over the years(3 wired and 4 wireless), they all had tracking/skipping issues within about 6 months (as do all Razer mice I've tried). Eventually I would start swapping them I had so many. When one would act up I would grab a spare. That one would work again for a little bit and I would have to swap again. I had 5 different PCs/laptops I used over the years, so I knew it was a mouse issue and not my computer. Once they had started making wireless versions, I was stuck. When I tried the G600 for a bit, I had to go back to the Naga because the G600 is massive and hard to maneuver. The Corsair turned out to be an excellent option, but their software is awful and no wireless was a problem when I wanted to travel, so it stays with my desktop now. I'm honestly surprised we haven't had another wireless option sooner... I know this probably came out a while ago, but I also don't play MMOs as much as I used to... mostly just play FF14 casually these days.

I purchased this June 2022, it is now Jan of 2025. I have really liked this mouse overall, but lately it has been falling apart. Pros: Comfortable, lightweight, very versatile with a ton of keys. Wireless is nice, corded is fine too. Cons: 12ish months in the scroll wheel stopped responding, I took it apart to clean, and noticed that some of the soldering had let go. I have since been using scroll bars. This felt like a pretty early failure to me, and super annoying. 30 month mark, the right click is only responding sometimes and the 5 key is becoming unreliable as well. At this point the mouse is pretty aged and heavily used. I'm going to buy a second one.
