    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.

    Got it on sale. Side buttons and grip are a nice bonus. Feels a little bit large for my palm but that's probably just preference.

     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.

    I purchased this mouse for my son who loves the computer PC. He says its was really smooth and easy to use. He has had the mouse since 11/2021 and so far it works well but the outer shell is peeling

    Honestly an great mouse for price, I finally had to upgrade from my old limited edition since it was jumping everytime I'd hit the mouse on my table mid-game. Fast and smooth, defenteily could like a 3-6 panel mmo button on the side instead of the two long ones, feels odd but quick to get used to. I used to use 12 button mmo so my opinion is biased.

    I had bought it's more expensive cousin the V2 for my personal office. When I needed a beefier mouse for my work I found this that is same dimensions and a little weightier so I grabbed it. I like it. I don't use it for gamin but it works really nicely with my setup.
