CM Storm Recon

 

The CM Storm Recon comfortably fills the niche between premium gaming mice and basic value-priced alternatives.

Ambidextrous design. Matte finish with rubberized grip. Simple customization. Relatively inexpensive.

Awkward button placement for DPI adjustment.

Conclusion With its basic ambidextrous design, comfortable feel and solid performance, the CM Storm Recon is a well-made gaming mouse. Price-wise, it's also more budget friendly, putting it closer to the Roccat Lua Tri-Button Gaming Mouse than the more...

Cooler Master CM Storm Recon Review

Available for Rs. 3000, the Cooler Master Recon essentially employs a tweaked version of the Avago optical sensor found in the DeathAdder. It incorporates the same solid tracking accuracy in a well-built package that's brimming with features found only...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Excellent mouse, software needs work. Sensitive buttons

 

It boils down to a very good mouse but needs some work. I don't recommend it for your home PC if you're a right handed user I would invest in the Havoc mouse instead, it's very comfortable.

Had it for a year and a half before upgrading to the CM Havoc (even better mouse for gaming if you're right handed) and it's been great. It is weighted perfectly and is great for short time use, left handed and ambidextrous use. Small and portable for...

I'm knocking an egg off for the software and the mouse buttons. The software is clunky and would forget macros I made, I had to reprogram it once and a while to get them back. I accidentally click while holding it often enough for it to be an issue,...

Awesome gaming mouse

 

Really happy I got this when it was on sale. It looks great, feels great, and is perfect for ambidextrous mouse lovers.

Great mouse for a great price. Software is easy to use, LEDs are bright and very pretty. Cord is sufficent in length

Does not have fully adjustable DPIs; only presets

Consumer review (newegg.com)

I was expecting something more furry

 

I've dropped this thing like 7 times and it still works 10/10 would buy again.

It works well, has a small variety of LED choices. Pretty sure it has some weights or something in it which is nice. Definitely doesn't feel like a cheap mouse

None good mouse is good

I normally go for cheap, but...

 

The ambidextrous design is very good for a left handed person like me. The reason I bought it is because it is usable with the left hand (and the multi-colored LED allows it to fit in with any computer design). It is a great mouse, but it could have...

This mouse works for everything I want it for. It is great for games and the included software allows you to map pretty much any kind of macro you could think of to any key. Very useful when you are playing a game and have a complex series of button...

I have used this for a couple months and the only con is that whenever the mouse wheel turns it emanates a most pitiable squeaking sound that reminds me of a small rodent in distress. I wish that the manufacturer would have given the wheel some better...
