    I'm surprised this is much easier to open than the 5, but that's quite a lot of glue haha. It seems like the diffuser and maybe some screws would be the best things to remove to lower weight while still keeping a relatively stock appearance?

    During the video you stated that the left side buttons are "built into it", is there any chance at removing them? I am finding it hard to hit all 12 buttons accurately, especially the middle ones. so was thinking of removing the 4 middle bottom ones to give a place for my thumb to rest with some grip tape over the holes left behind. I was watching this video to see if that is possible.

    I really love my aerox 9, macro software could be better like bloody but meh, 12 buttons and light mouse. The only thing i hate is it's impossible to clean inside, they should've implemented transparent stuff under the holes, i consistently blow-dryer with cold settings but not enough.

    i just bought one of these mice, im considering 3d printing a new right side panel.

      same here it needs like the extra right side support like other mmo mouse. also i feel like the back is unusually long so its hard to reach the front buttons. are there any 3rd party 3d printed shells for it out there to buy?

      Wheel on my Aerox 9, after 8 months of use, first started to scroll screen content in random directions, when scrolling the wheel in one direction, and now wheel started to squeak like crazy. I started searching tear down guides in hopes to fix the issues with the encoder and the wheel, but looking on ho the mouse is put together (an no-name switches used) all I can say - bye-bye, SteelSeries, I never going to buy shit from you again.

    • @tenorHarlequin
      @tenorHarlequin Месяц назад +1

      ​@@Zuneg I agree. I've gone through three at this point. The first one's side buttons quit on me after about a year of use. Warranty had just expired, so I just bought a new one, and "returned" it with the old one in the box. New one's mouse wheel had the exact issue you described, right out of the box. So, I did that same process a second time to get the **third** mouse, and a couple weeks in, here I am again. I felt morally unjust at first for the false return, but then I read the horror stories about their customer support. Now I sit here still screwed over defeated, but at the very least confident that this was the first and last product I'll buy from them.

  • @PipsterSays
    @PipsterSays 5 месяцев назад +3

    The scroll wheel encoder mechanism is a really bad design on these models. I have Aerox 5 & 9 and both get a jumpy scroll. By that I mean when I scroll up it goes down slightly and when I go down it goes up slightly each time. Worthless with FPS and weapon changing, can't rely on it. The only thing I can do to fix it for a little bit is spraying or blowing air into the left click side to get whatever gets clogged up. Complete garbage design, would not recommend.

    I am sorry but I am just laughing really hard every time this man puts random components on the scale. Jeez I can't believe these screws weigh so much. If only they put 1 less 0.15 gram screw in the mouse then I could have won that game. I can't believe you didn't weight all the glue used on those connectors. All that probably adds up to 0.25 grams.
    I am laughing at the idea not at the guy for filming it, that level of detail while doing a review is really nice. I just personally do not care about mouse weight that much. If it was up to me logitech would sell a g604 v2 that had the swappable side plates of the razer naga pro with a slightly different grip and the weight could be 90-140 grams I honestly wouldn't even really notice. I miss the scroll wheel lock deature on the g604. Being able to unlock the scrollwheel into free spin is such a nice feature.
