Customer Ratings & Reviews

Pro: -Smooth gliding -Tactile scroll wheel -Keys can be customized in many ways Neutral: -No RGB Con: -Uneven weight. Back heavy from AA battery -Not truly ambidextrous The M55 is mostly a symmetrical mouse. The body is slim, perhaps too slim for some. The mechanical switches are nice and tactile and don't have a sharp tang to them so it sounds more muted. The scroll wheel has a nice clicky feel. It’s not truly ambidextrous since the side buttons are only on the left side. It uses an AA battery, so it’s not the lightest and the weight of the battery makes it uneven and back heavy. When it’s completely on the surface, the PTFE pads make it feel light and smooth. However, when I pick it up or do quick flicks, I can definitely feel the unbalanced weight on the back. I feel like it was designed to be gripped in the middle rather than a palm grip. The battery is supposed to last up to 180 hours with the USB receiver, or up to 400 with bluetooth. Only used it a few days but so far still show full power. With iCue, all but the left button can be remapped. They can pretty much be remapped into any keyboard key, key combinations, macros, or preset functions. The DPI can be set between five stages, ranging from 100 to 24,000. Personally, I think the mouse is good for single player games and maybe competitive games if the uneven weight doesn’t bother you. It’s tactile and glides easily. The symmetrical design makes it somewhat slim and can make my palm cramp up during more intense gameplay.

I have large hands with thick fingers. I’ve found computer mice over the last few years, particularly gaming mice seem to be growing in size and complexity. My big hands and fingers love the size of these larger mice, but there are plenty of times where I just need a compact mouse that works. That’s where I find myself with this M55 mouse. It is small, but not minuscule. The shape works well in my hands. The mouse supports the basic two buttons and a scroll wheel functionality and it includes a couple of trigger buttons on the side. The materials used for the body of the mouse are lightweight without feeling cheap. I love the built-in slot for storing the USB-key-dongle when the dongle is not in use. I had no problems connecting this to both my Windows and Apple devices. The mouse is not recharable, instead opting for a single AA battery that is easy to swap out and overall the mouse is doing what its supposed to do. For anyone looking for a travel mouse that supports low-latency wireless this is a good choice with what I consider a great balance between size and complexity.

Smooth, easy to use, and comfortable to grip. Too pricey, however.
