Review: Great Performance and Features, With One Minor Annoyance - The SteelSeries Rival 5 is a fantastic all-around gaming mouse with a lot going for it. The TrueMove Air sensor feels incredibly precise, and tracking has been flawless whether I'm playing FPS titles, MMOs, or just doing regular desktop work. The lightweight 85g design makes it comfortable for long sessions, and the 9-button layout, especially the quick-action side buttons, is genuinely useful without feeling cramped or gimmicky. Build quality feels solid, and the RGB lighting is clean and customizable through SteelSeries GG. The switches are snappy, and overall the mouse strikes a great balance between performance, ergonomics, and versatility. In terms of ease of use, it’s very straightforward to set up: plug in the USB cable, install SteelSeries GG software if you want to customize RGB or button mappings, and you’re ready to go. The default configuration is sensible out of the box, so you don’t have to tinker if you don’t want to. The side buttons are well-placed and intuitive, and it works equally well whether you’re gaming, browsing, or working. Regarding value for money, given the performance, build quality, and feature set (9 programmable buttons, high-end sensor, durable switches), the Rival 5 offers excellent value. It delivers many features you’d expect in higher-priced mice, yet remains reasonably priced. If you’re looking for strong performance without paying premium flagship prices, this is a smart buy. The only drawback I’ve run into is the middle mouse button (the scroll-wheel click). It requires a bit more force than I’m used to, to the point where it sometimes feels like it’s stuck even though it's not. It still works, just doesn’t feel as smooth or responsive as the rest of the buttons. Not a deal-breaker, but definitely something I noticed right away. If you want a lightweight, feature-rich, and highly accurate gaming mouse for a variety of game genres, the Rival 5 is a strong choice. Just be aware the middle-click might feel a bit stiff depending on your preference.
Review: All-around good mouse. Big improvement on earlier Steel Series Branded mouses. - Feels great to use, very ergonomic. Responsive tracking. Software customization options are pretty solid too; The extra pair of buttons on there are nice; they actuate only vertically so you cannot accidentally press them along with the regular "fwd" and "back" side buttons present. I set them up as "Enter" and "Esc", which is a time-saver for my use case. It's an RGB mouse; and if you like that this does it well; it even integrates effects with other Steel Series-branded things, so the ripple effect from your keyboard will ripple all the way to your mouse too. For those who don't like it, it's easy to turn off or just give it a very basic dim color. This is corded-only; no battery. It also feels nearly weightless; two things people tend to either love or hate with no in-between, so buyers should know that ahead of time too. I actually took a bit of a chance on buying this one; I had used an older mouse from the same manufacturer before and I wasn't really very impressed with it; and on top of that it was defective too. But I do have a keyboard and headset from them that I really like, so I thought I'd give the mouse another chance too, when it was finally time to retire my old battle-worn Basilisk. For me, it's been a great mouse. Pretty happy with it

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this mouse auto-install an intrusive software suite or need the user to constantly be logged into an account, like Razer requires?**
A: Alright. Comprehensive answer time.
When it was initially released, it had a software suite that you needed to download to use all the fancy lighting options.
IT DOES NOT REQUIRE THIS TO FUNCTION as a mouse. You don't need to install any intrusive or annoying software. In fact, on many computers, the software has been upgraded to the point where you might not even be able to find a version that is still supported. Depending on how new your computer is, you might not need/want to install it anyway. It works as a good mouse and you can slave the buttons out just like any other human interface device from your system control panels.
If you WANT the suite, and your computer supports it, it's an easy download and the only intrusive things that will be installed are the ONES YOU CHOOSE TO INSTALL during the install... click a button, get a result. That's on you. But as far as annoying, memory hog, spyware and the like: no... you can do that if you want to by going looking for them, but those aren't required.

I'm literally using this mouse right now with nothing installed beyond the drivers that windows used to recognize it as a mouse. Works great. Only thing I can't do is have the LEDs stick on one color since I don't use the suite. Upside, the LEDs are there for show in the first place so the rainbow cycling isn't a fundamental issue.

**Q: Will this work on ps5?**
A: Yes

**Q: It feels fine to aim, but turning around fast and movement while looking like turning sharp corners feels really off. Suggestions?**
A: Most likely had angle enabled. Download the steel series software. And disable it. Also recommend disabling windows mouse acceleration aka precision. You want raw Input as a beginner to pc gaming.

**Q: If I have it plugged into my computer, will I need to replace batteries for the rgb?**
A: No

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice and responsive, just like I like it.
*by S***R on January 11, 2026*

Aww yeah, this thing is smooth like butter. Feels great. The only rubberized bit is the mouse wheel, however.. It could've used just a bit more of that along contact points. Here's to hoping it lasts years and years.
