The SteelSeries Aerox 5 wireless mouse comes packaged with a braided USB Type-A to Type-C cable for charging as well as a USB Type-C dongle. There are many factors that come into play when sizing your mouse, such as shape and grip style, but we've focused on the size of your hand comparitive to the mouse itself.

You can usually find Hope fawning over some art, tech, or likely a wonderful combination of them both and where relevant she’ll share them with you here. The SteelSeries GG software often feels like it can misrepresent the charge, which can lead to running out of battery sooner than you expect.On an aesthetic level, the Aerox 5 Wireless differs from the Rival 5 in that it has rectangular holes across the top, bottom, and main buttons, along with glossy instead of matte side buttons. Palm grip users can comfortably handle this mouse with paws as small as 15cm or about 6 inches (measured the same). This mouse has the same sensor and an identical, right-handed shape as the wired version, but you can connect it wirelessly with a USB receiver or via Bluetooth and recharge its internal battery with the included cable. Unfortunately, while it has a comparable number of buttons as these other mice, it's missing extra features such as ergonomic thumb or finger rests and a scroll wheel with a free-scrolling mode and L/R tilt inputs.

First, the resistance makes it difficult to push the button up without lifting the entire left side of the mouse and messing with its tracking. The "snek" has you covered with its latest Basilisk, which includes the company's ultra-convenient charging dock. State-of-the-art engineering gave rise to the Aerox 5, making it 40% lighter than other multi-genre mice.It only has side buttons on the left side, but it has more programmable buttons overall, so it's a better choice for games with more complex controls like MOBAs and MMOs.

This update modifies our Hand Size Recommendation test, adding a more granular hand size recommendation chart. This may leave traces of glue on the bottom of the mouse however, which will need to be removed before attaching the new mouse feet. The SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless and the SteelSeries Aerox 5 Wireless are similar wireless gaming mice from the same lineup, but they're shaped differently and designed for playing different games. The dongle only connects through USB-C and there’s no included USB-A adapter to stick on the end if your rig doesn’t have the requisite port. Along that same vein, this mouse is likely too large for anyone with a hand under 18cm or about 7 inches (measured from the butt of the palm to the tip of the middle finger) to use in a claw grip.However, their heights diverge a bit more; the Model O's tallest point is 38mm, while the Aerox 5's is 42. Designed with 100% pure PTFE to provide the smoothest swipes and enhanced control for super-fast mouse movements. Once the glue has been heated long enough, use a spudger (a flat plastic tool with a sharp end) or a knife to scrape underneath the feet to peel them off — be careful if using a knife!
