SteelSeries Prime Wireless vs SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless
114This is a video to compare two great mice from SteelSeries, with very different designs, but similar specs. The SteelSeries Prime WIreless vs The SteelSeries Aerox 3.
Please keep in mind that this is the original Aerox 3. There's a new version for 2021 that I haven't seen yet. Sadly.

The SteelSeries Prime Wireless is not much to look at, but it's certainly a great mouse with lots to offer. This is a small understated gaming mouse, with matte ABS plastic finish, Optical Mechanical Switches and plenty highlights.
Highlights include:
Great battery life
Comfortable fit
Agile design
Slick feet
Lowlights:
USB-C cable is a pain to plug in
Side buttons are a tad recessed

Lowlights of the mouse - with RGB on and default settings I only get about a day of battery before it needs charging. It does flash to let you know when it's running low though...
