A gaming mouse is arguably the most important device for improving PC gaming.
There are a variety of gaming mice released all over the world with different features such as ease of use, weight, accuracy, and number of buttons.
SteelSeries, a gaming device brand that has released many gaming devices, released a new ultra-lightweight gaming mouse, the " Aerox Series," on April 28, 2022!
The three new models are the 18-button " Aerox 9 Wireless ", the 9-button " Aerox 5 Wireless ", and the " Aerox 5 ".
The world's lightest multi-button wireless gaming mouse!
SteelSeries' ultra-lightweight gaming mouse "Aerox Series" is now available.
The " honeycomb structure " of the mouse body, which is open like a beehive, is a feature that makes it durable and lightweight.
The most attractive feature of the three models released this time is that they are multi-buttoned.
There are very few variations of lightweight multi-button mice, so you should be able to comfortably play games of any genre with just this one mouse.
Aerox 9 Wireless
The "Aerox 9 Wireless" is the top-of-the-line model among the mice released this time.
It is equipped with 18 buttons, including 12 side buttons for right-handed users, which can be freely set by the user.
And yet it weighs an astonishing 89 grams!
The fact that it is wireless and unencumbered by cords makes it feel even lighter.
With this many buttons, it might be possible to play "League of Legends," "Dota 2," "Lost Ark," and "Diablo" with one hand!
The Aerox 9 Wireless product page includes examples of customized buttons for each game title.
Aerox 5 Wireless, Aerox 5 (wired)
The "Aerox 5 Wireless" and "Aerox 5" are wireless/wired models with the same features and 9 programmable buttons.
The "Aerox 5 Wireless" is an entry-level model with "a few more buttons" than a typical gaming mouse, but it is unmatched in its lightness.
The Aerox 5 Wireless weighs 74 grams, and the Aerox 5 is even lighter at 66 grams without a battery!
Other than the number of buttons and weight, the specifications are the same.
Except for the number of buttons and weight, all three models have the same specifications.
The wireless model has a 180-hour battery life and can be used for 40 hours on a 15-minute USB Type-C quick charge.
In addition, the "honeycomb structure" is splash and dust proof and IP54 compliant, so even if you spill a snack or juice on it, it's still safe!
However, dust tends to accumulate inside the honeycomb, so we recommend cleaning it regularly with an air duster.
Now is the time to debut a lightweight mouse!
The unique "honeycomb structure" may feel uncomfortable to hold at first, but the lightweight design more than makes up for it.
The multi-button functionality is clearly an advantage when playing MMORPGs such as "FF14" and "Black Desert".
Why not take this opportunity to debut the Honeycomb Mouse?
