The SteelSeries Aerox 5 is a lightweight, right-handed gaming mouse that combines ultra-light design with versatile functionality. It features a honeycomb-style shell to reduce weight, yet maintains durability thanks to its IP54-rated AquaBarrier protection. With nine programmable buttons—including five thumb buttons—it’s well suited for MMOs, MOBAs, and multitool use. The onboard TrueMove Air sensor supports up to 18,000 CPI and 1,000 Hz polling for precise tracking across genres. The build also boasts premium gliding PTFE feet and strong performance in gaming tests, though reviewers noted the wireless version has somewhat limited battery life compared to expectations.
