SteelSeries Aerox 5 Wireless review - my new main mouse

This is an unboxing and review of the SteelSeries Aerox 5 - which is quite possibly my new favourite mouse. It's fantastic for a number of reasons, not least of which is its comfort, button layout and weight.

The SteelSeries Aerox 5 wireless is interesting for a number reasons and has great features that includes:
An ultra lightweight 74g design for speed and precision making it perfect for all Battle Royale, FPS, MOBA, and other fast-paced games.
Ergonomic 9-button programmable layout with 5 quick action side buttons, including our unique up/down flick switch for fast and efficient in-game actions.
AquaBarrier™ technology is IP54-rated to provide water resistance and protection from dust, dirt, and more.
Quantum 2.0 Wireless transmits data at unreal speeds, giving the flexibility of 2.4 GHz or Bluetooth 5.0, while also allowing for 180 hours of continuous play with fast charging.
TrueMove Air precision optical gaming sensor with true 1-to-1 tracking, 18,000 CPI, 400 IPS, 40G acceleration, and tilt tracking.
Next-gen Golden Micro IP54 Switches with over 80M click durability.

Highlights of the Aerox 5 Wireless for me includes:
A bigger and more comfortable design
More buttons gives more flexibility and programmability
A smooth experience with those PTFE feet

Lowlights:
Battery life isn't as good as the Aerox 3 was but it does have fast charging
That up/down flick switch is a weird one and not easy to use.
