SteelSeries Sensei

 

With a proper CPU, 11,400 CPI sensor, LCD screen, numerous LED lights and stunning ergonomics, is this the best gaming mouse ever?

Superb, customisable performance ; Ambidextrous yet comfortable ; Programmable without a PC ; 3 individual LED zones in any colour ; Excellent software

Not quite as comfy as some right-handed mice ; Can accidentally press side buttons ; No adjustable weights or grips ; Some minor issues with software install

SteelSeries Sensei Wireless review

 

Cutting the...wait a second

Wired charging pad doubles as a transmitter - a very, very good transmitter ; The SteelSeries Engine 3 is educational and offers deep customization ; Its battery is tough to run down

The wireless functionality comes with a premium price tag ; No on-board profile storage or bottom LCD ; Setting up macro profiles takes a bit of elbow grease

At $159.99 (about £97.27/AUS $179.56) it's a bit of a niche product, but for the right audience the Sensei Wireless is a great all-around ambidextrous mouse that you'll likely love for the next few years. The Sensei Wireless demonstrates SteelSeries'...

SteelSeries Sensei Fnatic review

 

The Sensei Fnatic is an extremely configurable laser mouse with eight buttons, seven of which are programmable. It's also ambidextrous, so suits lefty gamers. Most importantly, it's an incredibly pleasant mouse to hold and to use - we enjoyed using it...

An expensive mouse, but its highly programmable buttons make it perfect for complicated games

SteelSeries Sensei Ten mouse review: Another icon returns, but is it enough?

 

Who still remembers the Xai from 2009?

Comfortable, ambidextrous shape ; Good build quality ; Flawless optical sensor

Rather heavy at 92g ; Rubber cord not as flexible as paracord-style cables on other mice ; Overall a rather unexciting upgrade coming from the original Sensei

Steelseries Sensei [RAW] Rubber Surface Edition Ambidextrous Mouse Review

 

Great sensor, Low liftoff height, Ambidextrous, Nice design / feel, Robust software

Minor negative acceleration at high velocities, Feel too lightweight

I’ve never been much of a big fan of Steelseries and that is more just personal preference than anything else and products like the Sensei [RAW] are quick to remind me that I should be paying more attention to the their products. The sensor is really...

SteelSeries Sensei RAW (Glossy)

 

Superbly comfortable ergonomics, Excellent accuracy, Ambidextrous design, SteelSeries engine

Loses some features from the Sensei, Lack of buttons for MMO players, Some adjustment necessary to use off-hand side buttons

The bottom line is that the Sensei RAW is an extremely comfortable, lightweight and accurate mouse, and it’s a sensible choice for anybody that wants to invest in a device that’ll genuinely make their reactions a little quicker and smooth out motion in...

Review: Steelseries Sensei Mouse

 

The Steelseries Sensei Mouse is the latest in the line of professional gaming mice from Steelseries, let's see what Dexter thinks of it ...

Comfort ; ARM Processor ; LCD screen ; LED customization

Bloated software suite ; Price

When I first saw the price on the mouse I thought that it better be one hell of a mouse for them to charge that much. After testing it, I have to say the Steelseries Sensei is indeed, one hell of a mouse. If you want features, this thing is loaded with...

SteelSeries Sensei Gaming Mouse Review

 

The current peripheral landscape is cluttered with so called “gaming mice” that feature enough marketing lingo to make them all sound like the Second

Great looks ; Plenty of useful features ; Three well defined illumination zones ; ExactAim & ExactAccell are simply amazing ; Reasonable price ; Single CPI increment tracking adjustments

Chromed surface provides a less than optimal grip surface ; No fast, easy way to change profiles on the fly

The gaming mouse niche is easily one of the most fast paced portions of the peripheral marketplace which essentially means every
