However, there are a wide range of mice from other manufacturers around a mid-range price point that offer more impressive performance. In terms of performance, this model has good click latency and a sensor with excellent motion latency and accuracy. This model also feels sturdier than the original version and features higher-quality mouse feet that glide more smoothly on mousepads and desks. This new model maintains the classic symmetrical shape and is also very lightweight, weighing only slightly heavier than its wired version and around the same weight as many of the best mid-range lightweight options currently available. If you've been dreaming about a lighter wireless MMO mouse, this is the mouse for you.įor a mid-range option, the best SteelSeries mouse we've tested is the SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless 2022, an updated version of the popular SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless. Some gamers won't appreciate how it looks or how this texture feels compared to a more traditional solid plastic outer shell. The diamond-shaped cutouts in the palm rest and click buttons play a large part in making this mouse lightweight. Unlike virtually all other MMO-focused mice, this mouse is surprisingly lightweight, about 20 or 30g lighter than some of its closest competitors, which can make a big difference when playing fast-paced games. Like other high-end SteelSeries options, this mouse has excellent sensor performance and very good click latency, making it more than suitable for the titles it's designed for. It has a full 12-button side panel that you can load up with all your custom binds and macros using the SteelSeries GG software. Overall, this mouse is designed for playing more complex titles with plenty of controls like MMOs or MOBAs. It's sometimes more expensive than the SteelSeries Aerox 5 Wireless, so it's worth waiting for a sale.

For something typically less expensive at an upper mid-range price point, we recommend the SteelSeries Aerox 9 Wireless, but the price of this mouse is volatile.
