Solid mouse. Stop searching for mouses.
Whether it's your first mouse or a replacement for a broken mouse, this is a great choice in terms of price being low and functionality being just as good as a high-end mouse. It handles FPS games as any other good mouse will. The wire is long and of great quality. Ergonomically, the mouse is small (compared to my now broken mouse), but I didn’t find it to be a problem as it fits the hand comfortably. Finally, the buttons and the extra two programmable buttons click nicely and don’t feel out of the ordinary. If you need a mouse, just get this one, and you're good to go out of the box. One note is that if you're not into RGB like me, then you're going to have to download the HyperX program to turn it off or change it to what you want, as it comes with a rainbow effect out of the box. 10/10.

Ordinary mouse
Does a good job and no issues this far. I’m old school and I don’t mind the wired part. It randomly changes color on its own I’ve never messed with the setting just plugged it in and used it.

HyperX nailed it with RGB and excellent quality!
Who doesn't like RGB lighting? HyperX and their whole line of Pulsefire products are filled with quality and performance. The free HyperX NGENUITY software features LightSync that gives plenty of customized options. I am highly pleased to have paired this mouse with the HyperX Pulsefire Mat XL and Alloy Elite 2 keyboard that color change together, thanks to their LightSync software.
