Score: 96/100Rankings

The Scimitar Elite Wireless SE is a high-end MMO mouse with massive macro depth, a 33K DPI sensor and versatile connectivity, aimed at medium to large right-handed gamers and streamers. Its size and weight make it less suitable for competitive FPS or small-handed users.

The Aerox 3 Wireless (Renewed) is a feather-light, right-handed gaming mouse featuring a TrueMove Air sensor, 200 hours of battery life, IP54 protection and fast USB-C charging. It delivers high performance with a low-weight profile, though the honeycomb shell can be slippery and dusty.
