Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have larger hands than most individuals. I wear XXL-sized gloves. So I do realize some products may not be suitable for me than the average person. The SteelSeries Rival 3 Gen 2 wired Gaming Mouse is more than fine. It just didn't fit my needs and liking but that doesn't mean it won't fit yours. I usually use larger or bigger style mice. I just find it more appealing to me. While gaming, my sessions can get intense leaving sweating hands. So having a mouse that is sized correctly and grippy is a pet peeve of mine. Just having some extra grippy texture on the side around the thumb area just adds that extra layer of comfort for me. I've been a fan of an "infinite-scroll wheel" so going away from that is tough for me. I didn't care for the scroll wheel on the Rival 3. The texture on the wheel was great but the functionality I didn't care for. I also didn't care to much for the two side buttons. They just felt off to me. I've used multiple mice with the extra buttons. For some reason these didn't feel right for me. I get the low profile and being minimal. Overall, for function this mouse will be fine for most people. It will achieve the desired outcome for most. For me, it just didn't hit the mark. The mouse lacks any kind of grip or texture for sweaty hands. It is very plain Jane. It felt very tiny in my hands. The two buttons on the side felt off. This mouse will work better for me in an "everyday task" kind of situation! Just not for gaming with me for long periods of time.

Exactly what my son wanted for gaming. He is so happy with it
