Our take on the SteelSeries Aerox 5 Gaming Mouse

The Aerox 5 Wireless is a 74 g honeycomb-shell gaming mouse with 9 buttons, a 180-hour battery and three ways to connect: 2.4 GHz, Bluetooth 5.0 and USB-C. It covers both fast shooters and MMO-style button-heavy play, with a flick scroll wheel and IP54-rated golden micro switches. At $57 at eBay as of November 5, 2026, it sits well below its usual street price of roughly $90 to $130, making this a strong buy point.

Questions and answers

Is $57 a good price for the Aerox 5 Wireless?
Yes. It usually sells for around $90 to $130, so $57 at eBay as of November 5, 2026 is a clear low. Check that the listing is new and includes the USB-C cable and dongle.
How long does the battery last?
SteelSeries rates it at up to 180 hours on 2.4 GHz. Bluetooth use stretches that further, and a short USB-C charge covers a long session.
Can I use it with a Mac or laptop over Bluetooth?
Yes. It supports Bluetooth 5.0 and 2.4 GHz, and SteelSeries lists Windows, macOS and Linux support. Button remapping needs the SteelSeries software on Windows or macOS.
How does it compare to the Aerox 3?
The Aerox 5 adds two side buttons, a flick scroll wheel and a higher-rated IP54 switch set, at a slightly heavier 74 g. Pick the Aerox 3 if you want the lightest possible shell and fewer buttons.
What's in the box?
The mouse, a USB-C charging cable, a 2.4 GHz dongle and a USB-C to USB-A adapter for the dongle. Confirm the listing includes the dongle before buying.
Is it good for small hands?
It is 5.1 inches long, which suits medium to large hands best. Small-handed users often prefer a shorter mouse like the Aerox 3.
