Closer Look (Continued)
The front of the mouse has the USB-C connection for charging. There’s nothing special about the connection here, meaning you can use your own cable if you wish.


On the underside of the Aerox 5 there is further weight shedding with the plastic cut away. The TrueMove Air sensor sits right in the middle of the mouse, where it should be, to give the most natural feel. Top and bottom are host to large 100% PTFE glide skates to reduce friction as much as possible, with a much smaller skate around the perimeter of the sensor. The switch above the sensor allows you to turn the mouse off fully, or switch between the 2.4GHz and Bluetooth connectivity.


The underside of the Aerox 9 is largely the same, only the connectivity toggle/power switch is moved towards the rear of the mouse.


SteelSeries provide an extension adaptor (this has a USB-C on each end) with the USB-C dongle, which allows you to place the dongle as close to your mousemat as possible, this gives you a handy Type-C cable that you can plug the mouse into for charging, while also helping to reduce any chance of interference; having said that, the new Quantum 2.0 wireless connectivity should resolve any possible issues, but it can’t hurt to help it along.
