SteelSeries produces gaming mice for casual and competitive gamers alike. They’re typically very well-built and comfortable to use. They also have some of the best software support and platform compatibility, allowing you to access all customization options no matter which operating system you use.
Lineup
Aerox: The Aerox lineup includes a range of symmetrical wired and wireless models designed for different kinds of gaming, including models for FPS, MMO/MOBA, and more versatile multi-genre models. The standout feature shared by all mice in this lineup is their lightweight construction with diamond-patterned cutouts on the palm rest and click buttons.
Prime: Mice in the Prime lineup have a solid plastic shell and a comfortable right-handed shape. The standard Prime and Prime+ models are best for medium- or larger-sized hands, but there’s also a mini version available, and both models have wired and wireless versions. Altogether, these are fairly conventional gaming mice, but they use a hybrid optical-magnetic switch, which offers the improved reliability and performance of a high-end optical switch but a crisper and more satisfying click similar to traditional mechanical switches.
Rival: As one of SteelSeries’ older models, the mice in this lineup have solid plastic shells and symmetrical shapes with a wide rear end. Various wired and wireless configurations are available for FPS and multi-genre gaming.
Sensei: The Sensei series of mice have a straightforward ambidextrous shape that is among the oldest and most widely regarded shapes in the SteelSeries catalog. The Sensei Ten is a modernized update of the original Sensei series of mice, which were at the height of their popularity during the early days of esports gaming.
