G-Wolves Skoll SK vs SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless: which one fits your build
Buy the G-Wolves Skoll SK for competitive players who prefer wired over wireless and ambidextrous claw and fingertip grip users, though it is the wrong buy for buyers who want wireless connectivity and palm grip users wanting a fuller shell. The SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless suits players who sweat a lot or want spill protection and gram-counters who still want RGB and dual wireless modes, though it is not the pick for anyone who wants a flagship-tier sensor and large-hand palm grip players needing a bigger shell. It is not the one for buyers who want the longest possible battery life with RGB left on. Our rating of the G-Wolves Skoll SK (8/10): A great budget-friendly ultralight wired mouse for players who don't need wireless. Our rating of the SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless (8/10): one of the few lightweight wireless mice that backs up its honeycomb shell with genuine spill and sweat resistance.
