So far so good. Got this on sale but it fits my hand nicely and I actually purchased a second one for another computer, I have had no issues and is works smoothly.
I have bigger hands (size 14 ring) and it is a full palm fit and ergonomically fits me. Originally purchased because the one I wanted was backordered.
When looking at the date I actually purchased one a month before as well. same mouse. I liked it that much. The sale did not hurt.

I really like this mouse for its features and comfort. I bought a second one for my other computer. Nice lighting, and app controls. One star off because the optical sensor gets dirty easily, I had to remove the plastic bottom plate to get it clean.

This is by far the best gaming (and general purpose) wired mouse I have used.
It’s simple but has a few extra buttons which I use for things like push-to-talk and melee actions in my games.
Very reliable so far! I’ve bought 5 for my home, office, and some for my kids. All are still working perfectly and feel great in the hands.
Would highly recommend!

I love big mouses but this is just a little too large for me. Sticking to my steelseries for now. The side buttons are also far too mushy.

Not long ago I wrote a review about the Acer Nitro 5 gaming laptop, demonstrating my lack of knowledge in the arena of PC gaming. I've spent no small amount of time learning about gaming on PCs--building your own rig, benchmarks and FPS performance indicators and the monitors with the best refresh rate for the highest demand games, but I've never fully understood the obsession with wired mice and keyboards (and specifically, mechanical keyboards). I decided it probably wouldn't be something I could read about and understand, so I did what any reasonable human being would do, and got my hands on some true gaming peripherals from a company called Fnatic to see if the hands-on experience would shed any light on the topic for me.
Any time I go to Microcenter, I often find myself amazed at how inexpensive a basic wired optical mouse is. So, at $60 for Fnatic's Clutch 2 gaming mouse, I had my doubts…then again, I'm accustomed to paying upwards of $100 for a good wireless mouse (i.e., the MX Master 2S), so maybe this wouldn't be so far off.
I was immediately surprised at how basic the Fnatic Clutch 2 looked…standard curved mouse design, a couple of side buttons, scroll wheel, and a few lights--but that's it. It's also very lightweight, which I imagine is important if you're an avid gamer. The size is perfect for someone with larger hands, and it's very comfortable to hold and use.
Inside a gaming session, it's equally and comfortable and understated--which is an interesting juxtaposition for me. When I buy a mouse, something like the MX Master 2S, I want to be reminded constantly that I bought that mouse--I want to love the mouse and recognize that it's always under my hand. That said, I learned soon during a game of Rocket League that the less I'm thinking about the mouse, the better off I'd be…I don't want to be reminded of the mouse I paid $60 for, because in that moment the only thing I should be focused on is the game. The Clutch 2 helped accomplish this goal--with its light and simple design, I didn't have to think about where it was, how it felt, or where the buttons were…it's a basic mouse that is great for being exactly that.
Then again, an $8 optical mouse from Microcenter might accomplish the same thing…at least in game. And in some sense, that's true--but what it would be missing are a couple extra touches that make this gaming mouse (and others just like it) special: customization. Because I've spent some time watching folks build gaming PCs, I understand the obsession with RGB lighting. I've seen enough "Office Tour" and "Desk Setup" videos to have purchased my own RGB light strips for the back of my desk…I get it. That's one piece of the customization here--utilizing the OP software to change the lights on the mouse to any color your heart desires.
And of course, a fancy light show isn't the only thing that the OP software allows: as expected, CPI and Polling Rate customization options are available there, as well as key binding capabilities…along with the ability to save up to 4 different configurations for the mouse so you can easily swap between fully customized presets. My only real complaint about the OP software was how long the install took on Windows…it is totally possible it was a system performance issue, but the installer hung multiple times during my initial installation attempts, but after a while I finally got it figured out.
In tweaking this mouse to my liking, it really got me thinking about how such a highly customizable mouse could make a difference in my standard work, not specifically for gaming. So, I downloaded the OP app for Mac (I was surprised there was a Mac installer in the first place), and applied those same preferred settings for my standard workload…and I have to admit, my opinion on wired gaming mice may have changed; this is certainly a different experience from my standard Logitech choices, better in most ways aside from the cable.
So at the end of the day, I sit the fence. The Clutch 2 is a well-built product that is comfortable to use and performs well during a gaming session. It could easily replace my wireless mouse because of its smooth operation and simple design, and for only $60 that's not a bad bargain. As long as you like the looks, and the customization is something you're looking for, I think Fnatic might have a product you'll enjoy, even if you're not a gamer.

A mouse for gaming and little else

While I’ve always tended to gravitate towards mice that were known as good gaming mice, the Clutch 2 is the first one that would be considered “tournament quality.” And I have to say I’ve got mixed feelings on it.
I have no complaints whatsoever in build quality. They appear to have used excellent materials and the internals are top notch, with high quality clicky Omron switches and what might be the biggest Teflon pads I’ve ever seen on the bottom of a peripheral. There’s an extremely precise programmable sensor which works on a wide variety of surfaces (though there’s no replacing a regular mousepad if you want to really get the best out of it.) I’m also a fan of the size, which fits my hands very well (though it might be a bit much for some. And the RGB effects and branding are a bit more understated than I’d have expected.
Where I struggle with it is all the ways in which it differs from the peripherals I’m used to, which place a similar emphasis on the internals but also add in other features for ergonomics and ease of use that you just don’t get with this. You’ve only got four buttons to play with to start (there is another one behind the scroll wheel, but this is dedicated to adjusting the mouse DPI) and the body is very light by design to reduce resistance to movement. These are all features that I can see being ideal for a gaming tournament, where you don’t want to have an abundance of small buttons you can mix up and need to carry out a lot of actions on reflex. But for every day use, I have to say that I kind of struggled with it. It doesn’t help either that the shape of the mouse is pretty much perfectly in line with something you’d expect to be bundled with a new computer, likely a concession to its e-sports pedigree since it’s not always a guarantee that you’ll be able to bring your own peripherals with you into the game. It’s a shape that’s fine if you’re using it an hour at a time, but as a power user I have to say that it didn’t take that long past that before I started to miss a proper thumb rest.
In the end, I’d say that I’d recommend the Clutch 2 to anyone with serious aspirations of e-sports play or diehard Fnatic fans, but probably not many people beyond that. As impressive a piece of hardware as it is, I just can’t see this mouse becoming a daily driver for anything outside of gaming.

I have larger hands and prefer a chunkier mouse that can fit my palm. I don't really like "ergonomic mice" like Razer's Mamba or Deathadder, and the simplicity of not having lots of buttons is great for my preferences.

Great mouse if you can get it on sale. No issues. Prefer something bigger like a Deathadder, but that is personal preference. They are about the same size as a Deathadder. No complaints though.

Great Mouse, I wish I could set the color and then the mouse would remember those settings until I changed it again but over all the mouse clicks well and tracks even better.
