The SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless features a durable build quality, long battery life, low overall body weight, and low wireless click latency, making it an ideal choice for competitive FPS gamers. However, its lack of free scrolling is a big drawback.
The SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless is a high-end wireless ambidextrous mouse that was first brought to the market back in late 2021, and it boasts an ergonomic design for claw grip gamers. It features both wireless and wired connectivity, including Bluetooth 5.0, but doesn’t have a built-in storage space for the USB-C dongle, which is present on some of the most popular computer mouse options available in the market today in its range. But similar to the best gaming mouse models, it does have customizable RGB lights.
The Aerox features an internal rechargeable battery with a 200-hour battery life. However, if you prefer wired gaming mice for their lower latency and want to go for something from the same brand, make sure to take a look at our SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wired review. Besides the 18000 DPI optical sensor, the Aerox has eight programmable buttons, including the scroll wheel.

our Verdict
The SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless is a fantastic choice for FPS gamers looking for a durable wireless gaming mouse. It sports a premium feeling rubber notched 24-step smooth scroll wheel, but neither has tilting L/R buttons nor free scrolling. And it works with the SteelSeries GG app for customizations. Its built-in battery lasts up to an exceptional 200 hours, thanks to Bluetooth 5.0. For a wired mouse, check our SteelSeries Aerox 5 Wired review.
Weighing 68 grams, the Aerox is excellent for fast hand movements. And tested at 14 ms, it has a low wireless click latency for quick responsiveness. It also features an ambidextrous design that offers comfort to claw grippers. However, its 18000 DPI sensor is only adjustable in 100 increments and tends to undershoot often.
