A premium gaming mouse from SteelSeries at a mid-range price? Aerox 5 Wireless targets players of action and FPS games who need a lightweight mouse with extra buttons. But beware of one detail – the stated 180-hour battery life only applies with RGB turned off.

Lightweight, perforated, and durable

The weight of 74 grams makes the Aerox 5 one of the lightest wireless mice on the market. The TrueMove Air (PixArt) sensor offers 18,000 DPI, 400 IPS, and 40G acceleration. PTFE glide skates ensure smooth movement.

There are a total of 9 programmable buttons, 5 of which are on the side – ideal for complex commands in MOBA or MMO games. Connection is via a 2.4 GHz dongle or Bluetooth 5.0. IP54 (AquaBarrier) protection guards against spills and dust. You charge it via USB-C; 15 minutes on the charger gives you 40+ hours of operation.

Battery life? It depends on the settings

On Alza, the mouse has a rating of 4.5 out of 5 from 39 customers, with 82% recommending it. They praise its low weight, precise sensor, and ergonomics. But beware – the return rate of 8.41% is above average. Several reviewers report a problem with the scroll wheel, which starts jumping in the opposite direction after a few months.

And the battery life? With RGB off and in power-saving mode, it really lasts a long time. With backlighting, the reality is different – „it lasts about one day of intense gaming,” writes one user. Also, the silver side button is difficult to reach for smaller hands. The original price was 3,490 CZK; now, with the discount code ALZADNY40, you can get it for 2,094 CZK.
