    Good Mouse - Horrible Software (and practices)

    It does what it is supposed to do. I am not the biggest fan of it now that I picked up my Redragon but I keep this as my backup for when I'm traveling or need to troubleshoot someone else's computer. The most annoying thing is the fact that it install so much software for no reason. Literally starts installing crap as soon as you plug it in. I've never had a mouse be so intrusive. I won't ever purchase from them again but the quality and ease of use is A+ after you get passed the software crap.

    I got it because I wanted a good wired mouse, and I saw that this is what some pro esports players use, so I got it. I returned it cause it was a little big for my hand, so I got the mini and instead of using it I use a cheap Targus office mouse cause I like how it fits in my hand.

     For the price that it is in for the line that it is I would have to say this is probably one of the best mouses to use. I use it for work and due to its ruggedness and the fact that it’s mainly used for gaming. I would highly recommended for every day use.
