SteelSeries Rival review: Name-brand performance on a budget

 

The SteelSeries Rival pares the gaming mouse back to its bare necessities.

Name-brand quality on the cheap ; Decent sensor

Thumb buttons are oddly pointy ; A bit more money would get you a much better mouse ; Almost-ambidextrous shape, but without the ambidextrous perks

The SteelSeries Rival 100 is a solid option for budget-minded gamers, but some odd design flaws hold it back.

Consumer review (very.co.uk)

Great mouse but not fantastic

 

The mouse is ergonomic enough with a safe shape that fits most hands. This mouse could be considered a staple shape for FPS shooters and the build quality is alright. The software that comes with the mouse is pretty bad, and the DPI can only be changed...
