Side note: I wouldn't recommend this mouse, or any MMO/MOBA mouse, for real-time strategy (RTS) games like StarCraft II. The extremely high APM (Actions per Minute) those games require to be successful on a competitive level aren't helped much by having your mouse hand's thumb getting in on the action. It's fair to say that the mouse has a steep learning curve. I'm sure that dedicated players will eventually figure out where each button is, and maybe even feel comfortable enough to assign multiple shortcuts to each key. But even after using the Aerox 9 Wireless for a few days, it was harder to play FFXIV with the mouse than without it. Compare and contrast to a mouse like the Razer Naga Pro, which lets you customize the number of buttons on the side panel. SteelSeries Aerox 9 Wireless review: Verdict Imagine all of the photo, video, or audio editing tasks that could be automated by macros applied to these side buttons and you'll begin to understand what a useful tool this mouse could be for creatives.
Quantum 2.0 Wireless transmits data at unreal speeds, giving the flexibility of 2.4 GHz or Bluetooth 5.0, while also allowing for 180 hours of continuous play with fast charging. We've converted this review to Test Bench 1.2. This update simplifies our Weight test and expands on our CPI test from Test Bench 1.1, resulting in changes to test results in both sections. For more details, you can see our complete changelog here. Software is taken care of with SteelSeries clever GG suite, which really comes into its own with a mouse like the Aerox 9 Wireless. All of the mouse buttons (including those contained on the keypad) can be programmed easily, as well as the RGB lighting itself. The extremely comprehensive button remapping options within the GG software Michael Gariffo Lighting and buttons
The SteelSeries Aerox 9 Wireless gaming mouse has a ton of buttons, but they’re tough to use
Each of the 16 buttons on the Aerox 9 Wireless are customizable, including the left and right tilt of the scroll wheel. These buttons can be set up with macros, or commands from your favorite MOBA game, or even Windows and Mac function keys, and have all of these saved into separate profiles. And that's all you need to know on how to pair your gaming mouse with your PC. The process will be similar to other devices, you just have to initiate the pairing on them first. The charging cable, Mouse Extension Adapter, and USB-C wireless dongle bundled in with both the Aerox 5 Wireless and Aerox 9 Wireless Michael Gariffo Connectivity and charging Like its aforementioned competitors, it does this adeptly, giving you a whole numpad worth of keys to customize to your liking. That's more than enough to contain about 1 and ½ World of Warcraft hotkey bars, every single League of Legends input (with room to spare), or similar numbers of inputs from Final Fantasy XIV, DOTA 2, Lost Ark, Guild Wars 1 or 2, Heroes of the Storm, etc. Weighing 6g, our battery is 14g lighter than those in other multi-genre mice, while still giving over 180 hours of battery life.
The grid can be a little difficult to navigate by touch due to the uniformity of its buttons. At times, I found myself scrambling to find the right button as my thumb was lost among the four columns. A little bit of texture on the second and fourth columns – a smart consideration used in Corsair’s comparable Scimitar line — could have gone a long way to help the tactile legibility here.Our mice such as the Aerox 5 Wireless use a powerful system called Quantum 2.0 Wireless, which allows either a 2.4GHz connection or Bluetooth 5.0 for most devices. While we recommend using a dongle for that easy 2.4GHz for lag-free gaming, sometimes you may want to opt for Bluetooth, especially for non-gaming tasks or on your other devices.
Great Deal
