Consumer review (newegg.com)

Good Mouse for a good price.

I bought two of these on Black Friday last year and I'm hoping to pick up two more for spares or for friends. Its been 10 months and both are working 100% even through excessive use. I play games like League of Legends, Heroes of Newerth, Starcraft...

Love the Ergonomic design of the mouse ; Pretty good value ; A good looking mouse to the average person ; DPI button to change sensitivity on the fly.(great for games)

Light weight ; Plastic ish feel to it ; Not much else

Good Mouse

Overall a good buy and a good product. It feels a little cheap, but it's been holding up to pretty heavy use for a while now and hasn't developed any issues.

Good ergonomic design decreases wrist strain and helped with carpel tunnel syndrome symptoms. Precise

A little cheap and plasticky feeling. Loud clicky mouse buttons

Middle of the road?

would get more stars if the above con was fixed, it is definitely worth -2 stars, which makes this mouse so-so, 3/5, it is very nice, especially for the bucs, but...

Ergonomics, smooth scroll wheel, dpi button, grip enhanced case, relatively lightweight, 1600 dpi (cpi)

switches dpi when both buttons are pressed (for 2 seconds) ; what a stupid idea! I was wondering why I was always having to reset the dpi

Not too shabby.

Overall, you can't really go wrong with this mouse because it certainly does it's job well. One note: This mouse is pretty light in weight and most definitely feels like a $20 mouse. So don't man-handle this product and it should last for a fair...

800 or 1600 dpi, Cheap, Laser, Pretty good budget mouse ; In spite of the way it looks, it actually does feel pretty good in your hand. It's responsive and it's wired, NOT wireless which is a major plus. The spots where your thumb, index finger, and...

That 2 button 2 second thing that switches dpi settings. I have no clue what they were thinking with this feature if they already have a button for the same function ; That definitely costs this product an egg

Nice mouse

Even with the DPI issue, it's a great mouse. For the price, it can't be beat.

Very reliable mouse, feels sturdy, and is very accurate

By holding the left and right buttons, it switches DPI. This is VERY annoying when gaming, and I wish I would have known this before purchasing

Not for gaming but comfortable

Get this for casual purposes and not for gaming.

Very comfortable with many grooves for your thumb and fingers. Looks cool and has a light under the scroll wheel

Scroll wheel goes too far sometimes, only two pre-set DPI settings. But most of all, if you hold down both triggers for 2 seconds, the DPI switches from low to high which is VERY ANNOYING! There is no fix for this and it was never mentioned in manual...

Great feel, and comfortable!

Will probably purchase another sometime in the future if this one lasts me more than 6 months.

Great feel! Comfortable! DPI button has noticeable effect in Linux

A bit pricey. Left button feels cheap

Fell apart in less than a year

I expected better from a product rated 5 eggs on New Egg.

Mouse feels good, although it's rides pretty high for my taste

I've owned this mouse for 10 months, and the center scroll wheel is skippy. It scrolls when it shouldn't, and doesn't scroll well when it should. The buttons are breaking down, and getting a little sticky as well. This mouse was used for pretty...

Great price and does it's job.

Great buy if you need a sleek mouse to depend on. I've been using it for gaming in the past few days and it works like a charm. My hand haven't been getting cramped like when I used an old Microsoft mouse.

High Sensitivity ; Comfortable Ergonomic Feel ; Smooth ; Wired

A little lighter than I'm used to, but I'm getting a long with it

Thought this was a downgrade, but...

My 2nd Razor mouse was on the verge of dying and because I don't game as much as I had used to, did not want to spend much on a mouse I would only use for surfing the net and COD occasionally. The mouse I was replacing was one my wife had gotten me 3...

Size, feel, accuracy, illuminating scroll wheel, PRICE
