SteelSeries Aerox 3 Review: Reliable, Hole-Filled Performer

Low-level trypophobia

Ambidextrous shape ; Lightweight ; Detachable cable

Ultralight mice aren't for everyone ; Hole-filled chassis is polarizing ; Rivals have greater sensor specs

wired version for $60 — but that’s still pretty expensive for such a small mouse. For most users, the Rival 3, in either wired or wireless form, is probably the way to go.
